  1. I'm glad to see the return of the old cast as well as some new members! Hopefully Star Wars Episode VII won't be one to forget anytime soon.
  2. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to add this to the roster for my long weekend playdate. This looks like it'll be a lot of fun, provided I don't get hijacked as soon as my titan is ready!
  3. Unlockables are always nice. You play a lot of matchmaking and you get rewards for your efforts. Makes sense. But I'd also like to see some armour pieces hidden throughout the campaign, like skulls back in Halo 2 and 3. It was fun playing through a level looking for them, and it also gives players more incentive to play campaign more than once.
  4. This event still hasn't taken place. So it's still going to happen. It's currently scheduled for 4pm EST on May 3. Speaking of which, you may want to postpone it by a couple hours. There are now TWO events that day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
  5. Did anyone look closely at my first submission in TDM's Art Thread?

  6. Each class should be able to use every weapon decently (as in be able to pick it up and shoot with it), but they should each get some sort of proficiency bonus that encourages the use of that class's weaponry. For example, the sniper class should be able to start with precision weapons like the DMR (make it live up to its name?) and also lay down when using a sniper rifle or enhanced binoculars when using a non-scoped weapon like a Plasma Pistol. But, their movement speed should decrease when holding a heavy weapon. A demolition class player can use a sniper rifle, at the cost of accuracy and making it very difficult to score a no-scope. But if Halo starts going down that road, it may turn into Halo Team Fortress instead of Halo 5. I don't really want to have something like a Master Heavy instead of Master Chief. I say yes, but each class should have active gameplay differences instead of a little perk that you have the option to not use at all. I bet no one even uses the Stalker's Nemesis support upgrade.

      ^this guy obviously don't lift.

  8. Now that's an impressive list of members. Nicely done, ladies and gentlemen! Do it again next month! For a moment yesterday, I thought the Top 15 was canceled. XD
  9. I always called it teleporting instead of rubber banding. Although I don't have an Xbox One or Battlefield, I applaud DICE's efforts as one of the pioneers of 64 player matches on console FPS games! Also the image and headline are off-centre because of your MOM badge in the upper-right corner.
  10. Is the Top 15 canceled since Zag isn't here?

      The top 16 isn't canceled!!!

  11. I would imagine it has to do with how well each person would be able to play. 4-player split screen makes each screen really small, which would make seeing enemies really difficult since they would be small as well unless you have a huge television. There may be some technical difficulties as well, although Twinreaper would be the guy to ask about that.

  13. Tomorrow we find out who the next Top 15 are.

  14. Good luck in your endeavours! And if you don't make it to state, then you're more than welcome here. Either way, you can't lose. Also I've added a list of available slots and who said they'll (may)be attending as well as a timezone converter (the link that says "convert it!" beside the time and date).
  15. What day is this event taking place? All I see is a time and no date. Otherwise I'd be glad to join in. Also here's a timezone converter.
  16. The only way to fix it is to make teams spawn out of reach of the enemy or add invincibility to your respawn traits so you have a chance to get back into the game.
  17. Man, these don't even look like video games anymore. They're starting to look like reality! D: It's only a matter of time before virtual reality is created... oh wait, there's Oculus! It's becoming tougher and tougher to differentiate between what is real and what is not!!
  18. You're more than welcome to join! If you have any minigames or gametypes to add to the list, don't hesitate to speak up. There are still a few weeks until the event begins.
  19. RSR91, The Director, Bnus, Church, UNSC Spartan-II, and Ledgend1221 appear! http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/33302-343iorg-city/page-3?do=findComment&comment=313194

      Every city has its growing pains.

  20. Crime Rates Climb Crazily Over the past month, crime rates have seen a dramatic increase in 343i City, from one occurrence every six months to ten in a month. The latest additions to the crime climb include graffiti at the local college to assault in the city streets. Recent reports indicate that the victims of assaults were last seen wearing red or blue clothes. In a statement issued by the Chief of Police, RedStarRocket91, he urged citizens to take necessary precautions to protect their homes such as locking doors and windows as well as locking their cars and leaving nothing of value in plain sight; he added that having a laissez-faire attitude when it comes to safety could result in dire consequences. He also discouraged people from wearing red and blue clothing until the assailants have been taken into custody. To conclude his statement, he proposed that city council should impose a citywide curfew to stay ahead of the curve and a bylaw to restrict the sale of spray paint to individuals above the age of twenty-five. Graffiti appeared on the walls of the Derek Zoolander Centre for Children Who Can't Read Good three weeks ago, depicting the Director as a pig with odor lines and a profuse amount of pimples on his face or simply saying "dis collej sukz". While most residents dismiss these attacks as random, some think they are targeted, pinning the blame on the influx of well-to-do members and possible mafia connections. "The mafia is in this town, no doubt about it. It's just a matter of finding out who is a part of it," a citizen under the guise of Bnus told the 343i Bulletin. "They'll never reveal who they are if there are police officers snooping around. And who never come out of their homes? Everyone living in those new mansions being built everywhere." "Thankfully no one has died yet during this crime wave. As of right now, we are investigating the causes of these events and working around the clock to bring these wrongdoers to justice," Church said in a press conference. He emphasized the points brought up in the Chief's statement, and encouraged neighbours to look out for one another. "Neighbourhood watch may seem like a joke to some, but crime will slow down when more people witness these unlawful deeds in the act. Instead of munching on popcorn and watching your neighbour get mugged like it's some sort of police drama on television, pick up the phone and call for help! What you see is not an act; it's real." Unemployment Pushes Industrial Park With unemployment rates on the rise, many citizens stretching their last few dollars urged city council to begin work on an industrial park proposed several months ago, saying that it will make and not break the city's future. "Ever since we won the war against the Covenant and some of us got pulled into a vortex of some sort bringing us here, us veterans have families to feed! Idle hands are the devil's playthings!" UNSC Spartan-II pleaded on behalf of Human-Covenant War veterans living in 343i City. "The environment will be there in the future. The well-being of families in need will not if this industrial park isn't built now!" Ledgend1221, a veteran of the many battles between the Global Defense Initiative and the Brotherhood of Nod, warned that a clear lack of productivity could bring many able-bodied workers to the brink of insanity. "Back in the old days, a lot of civilians were brought in to mine tiberium. Sure, the stuff was radioactive and we had to drive huge trucks reinforced with layers of lead that were six inches thick just to extract it, but it was an honest day's work. Now that those days are gone, many are without work and live in poverty." After hosting the open house with citizens, city council hastily approved the plan despite reported looks of apathy. Rumours indicate that Mayor Maestro was intrigued by the eventual increase in city tax dollars that the park would bring in.
  21. Expect a 343i City update later today!
