Spectral Jester

Played every halo from release day. I will be 41 when halo CEA comes out will I stop playing them ? Only when im dead and buried.

I'm into doing as little as possible

I will pin it in the Halo Reach section. as that is more appropriate.

Somehow, nipples played on his

Marv dont worry, rank in Reach is time played, so it just means you havent played the game as much.

PESTILENCE, PESTILENCE, PESTILENCE I can say no more lol

I totally agree, the avoid player option is broke on XBL which is a shame, as you say, i tend to run into the same idiots over and over again, even on different days which is annoying. Theres a guy on firefight (who will remain nameless) spends all match standing in front of you when your sniping, firing FRG at you, and blowing up all the weapons, he does nothing else, I get this guy in a game practically every day..

humpty dumpty was an egg

Thanks Marv, took the words right out of my mouth. OP, if you have no intention of buying the games in future, then you can always play Halo 3. They are not going to build a Multiplayer system for Halo CEA, this is being released as a anniversary (clue in title), almost gift to the fans if you like. Halo 4 however is a different kettle of fish, which WILL have its own multiplayer system, will there be armor abilities? who knows. In fact who knows what will be in Halo 4? or what Halo 4 storyline is even about? no one, so lets take things as they come and come back to this discussion as and when details are given out,

The very fact there is a TU gives me hope!!!!! Could be the start of something great, I pretty much guarantee the TU will not make a majority of people happy, but its the first TU in what? 11 months since release. The very fact we are getting a TU speaks volumes.

God I hope there are no more ranks after Inheritor, the cR needed for the ranks after Legend are stupid, and would add noting to the game. Stuff in the armoury would be nice, I mean what you get to Inheritor you have bought everything and still have 11,000,000cR left ?!?!?!?!?!?!? So theres a definetly gap there to add more armoury items. Maybe add armoury items on the disk for Reach that will come with Halo CEA???? Would that get around the downloading of a big file, which I always read is the issue nothing can be added to the armooury at present

Just made Mythic so i'm only 1,350,000cR behind you lol

i think everyone getting it and playing the hell out of it when they get it is definetly going to happen. The thing is whether people will accept that the game has to move on from Halo 1/2/3. A game cannot stay the same, if something stays the same it goes stale, grows old and tiresome and eventually dies. That is the problem Reach had, people didnt like change, yes I know people will now flame away saying armor lock, armor abilities, armor lock, etc etc etc, and that is my point, not all things are going to work. I ask one thing and one thing only, when Halo 4 comes out GIVE IT A CHANCE IT ISNT HALO 3.

neither, as hopefully, the new planet is a forerunner planet or something like that, so we have to use new weapons. Wait till you see the complaints if thats true lol

should really be another option saying 'No opinion / don't care' #not trying ot be awkward but its not as cut and dry as yes or no.

This thread will be used to post info on the TU as and when its available as soon as details become available more info will be added Full Story on Waypoint heres a sample bit Before you tackle the above tasks, there is one more thing we should talk about, something we hinted at both during E3 and, more recently, in the first paragraph of this Bulletin. We’re pleased to confirm that we’re planning a Title Update (a small download which will add some interesting functionality) for Halo: Reach in preparation for the multiplayer aspect of Halo: Anniversary. If your heart suddenly sped up, fret not, Reach fan. This is something that will not only sit side-by-side with Reach’s existing gameplay and will be accessible by both Reach and Anniversary players, but will allow us to make fairly significant changes to multiplayer gameplay within the confines of Matchmaking. We’ve talked about this as a way to better recreate the classic Halo: CE feel for the new classic maps, and it will let us do some things in gameplay that simply aren’t possible now. I don’t want to give too much away until we get through gameplay and bug-testing, but an example scenario would be allowing you to play, say, [REDACTED] with zero fall damage. Now that’s a limited and simplistic example, but it does speak to the way we’re approaching the changes philosophically. There are some bigger ticket “classic” Halo gameplay elements which people are clamoring for and which we intend to do our best to deliver on. More news about specific changes and the timing of the Title Update will be forthcoming. But I can say that, having tried a few of the more significant tweaks, certain “classic” elements are already working with beautiful and deadly efficiency. We congratulate, thank, and celebrate Bungie as they close the Halo chapter of their lives. For those of us at 343, though? Well, I think we're just getting started…

Whilst I agree with you and do thing if the defiant and noble map packs are on there I will be a bit upset, it will add players to the playlists for the map, which is a good thing

so in a nutshell your gonna stand in your bedroom/living room and teabag in front of your tv?

So with all the have about armour abilities (which is undeserved, but thats for another thread). So lets get things straight. Design your own armour ability..... What would it do? Post your ideas, be creative... What about an armour ability for Pestilence users, where you can squirt the black ooze you are dripping at someone and they stick to the spot for say 5 seconds. What about a transporter that lets you transport yourself to another spot say within 10 metres? Come on lets here what you can think of

all because hot dogs are

Im a massive fan of Firefight, in facts in the main thing I play on Halo Reach. I hope it returns for Halo 4, also hope the flood are added. Gears 3 has a 30 second gap between waves where you can set up barriers, laser fences, mines etc. That could be a good thing to add to firefight also add Firefight versus (server based) The firefight playlist for me is near perfect, so it can only get better

Im with vitamin on this one, never played it, but have to say I dont think Ive ever gone on the rumble pit playlist!

whilst grifball is fun, its totally dominated by host, which is a shame really, its a good playlist thought for challenges like play 20 games, as they are qutie quick

If I've got a cup of coffee I can't promise to not dunk you though
