BUT the Spambots have an ace in the hole: The Vashkirian Love Guru Tankbusters. They'll need everything we've got to poop on their reign.

Posting at the risk of reviving "dead threads". I don't care what anyone says. I like to camp. Not long though. In regular low player count Slayer I tend to camp for a bit and then move to a different location, but I'm usually on the frontline in BTB. For that I use a Long Range Loadout. Now I play Objective nearly ALL the time, and my strategy consists mostly of camping the base to protect the team objective (Dominion, and CTF). I do this because I'm pared with incompetent people in Matchmaking who don't know how to guard the Objective worth sh**: if at all. I see it that if no one else will do it then I will. I will go out to attempt to capture and/or help the team for the enemy Objective if I see our Objective is secure (like someone else guarding, or the enemy team are fish in a barrel). Now I use multiple Loadouts for each Playlist, but I think this would be a good description of the items I use most frequently. BUT whenever I complete the commendations for a weapon I ditch it completely in Loadouts for another weapon: even one I don't use at all. Carbine (Light Rifle for BTB) Boltshot (Plasma for BTB, and Magnum 0%) Stickies, or Frags Auto Sentry (Hardlight Shield for BTB) Dexterity (I forget which one Stability is in, but I use that for BTB) Mobility

I don't think it matters really. I like all these names. Yours is catchy though. Lucky u

Count me in!

Hehe I knew Grif (or should I say Grief) would get this eventually. Hope you have a happy MoM Spook-tober, Grief!

Count me in. Oink.

Buggers? PS: TD GET IN HERE.

Hey RFA welcome to the forums!

Mother of all that is holey... a new member? E-Gad! A newcomer? Oh my stars and garters! Fresh meat? :0 Welcome to the community Judude; please disregard my dumbfoundedness. c:

I don't know either. I do have a little analysis by haruspis on The Ark and such (extremely good analysis, but this is unrelated to Halo: Escalation). He also does some very good articles over the future of Halo: http://haruspis.wordpress.com/2014/05/19/the-reclaimer-saga-the-ark-and-ragnarok/

A couple months from now Destiny very well won't be the same game it was at launch: like Halo 4. I may not have played the actual game, but I can safely say Launch Reviews are not entirely solid in the long run due to the fact that there's loads of potential patches, and updates that will come later. Your review seems to fit the bill correctly from what I've read around on other reviews. The Enemy names are pretty easy to remember for me though. I also never played the Crucible in the Beta. You just need some more meat in your review like Tyrone says.

Dayum. Spending over 100$ on Gamertags isn't really a good "financial decision" don't you think? Did you know that WreckoningZebra1... isn't actually a Zebra? *GASP* Yeah it surprised me too.

+ SPOILER!!! Chief was pretty reflective over his absolute death don't you think? That's got to mean something. Ending wise Chief leaving to go kick ass with Blue Team is very "suggestive". Not to mention Fred's armor appears in the Halo 5 Beta.

Welcome to the forums which hundreds of people come to every month thinking we're actually 343i (no joke)! Seriousness welcome to the forums. I'll look forward to seeing you around sometime.

Agent Locke sounds different from the Interrogator.

We are not 343i. Go to Waypoint where they have ice cream. Now 343i is in one of the most stressful positions: getting Halo back to it's former glory (if that's even possible). I'm sure 343i is looking through all avenues to make sure they don't screw up (Halo 4 was a testbed, and now it's all on them after their "first game").

Yep yer back. But please don't do anything bad to end your newly found redemption and get banned again, k?

Here's a querky idea: post either your favorite Band, or a Band which you think has influenced you the most. Be it them giving you inspiration, sparking interest in other Genres, being a gateway Band to your actual favorite Bands and etc. Give me the full story. I'll start. I listen to a multitude of Bands, but in the beginning my list was extremely small. I didn't really listen to Metal that much throughout the 2000s (or I don't remember any). I do remember listening to the Mjolnor Mix ALLOT but that's besides the point. When I was younger I listened to songs like Move Along by All American Rejects (I got that song specifically from a Bionicle commercial. The one with Piraka), or some One Republic songs. Maybe a hint of Eminem. THEN it struck me. One day I was in my Mom's room watching MTV (when they actually showed Music Videos) and the video for Disturbed's The Night came on. It was like a freight train to my consciousness. I couldn't get the song out my head lol. I would try to go there every day in hopes the song would come on. Here's the music video for the song I credit most to opening Metal to me: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UBv9TUQUDy0 Eventually MTV opened the doorway to songs like Sulfur by Slipknot, Sound of Madness by Shinedown, I Hate Everything About You by Three Days Grace, and Fade by Staind. It was the beginning of a revolution for my musical taste. As time went on Disturbed became my favorite band. At one time I had ALL the songs from their 5 albums. I personally owned 3 of their Albums (Ten Thousand Fists, Indestructible, and Asylum). I was present when the original commercials for Asylum came on... and I was blown away. But then it began to fade. Disturbed was a gateway band to me. I craved for heavier and heavier music, and Disturbed failed to deliver that (though Down With The Sickness, and Stupify were pretty heavy). I began listening to bands like Lamb of God, Godsmack, and Slipknot to a further extent (though like most people the deep growls peeved me a bit, but I grew to like it). It progressed to me beginning to listen to heavier and heavier music. Disturbed began to lose it's place. Fast forward to today. My Band list numbers 20+, and it's growing. I've listened to the heaviest crap you'll ever hear and I absolutely love it. It's hard to believe I once hated Metal. I now actively listen to bands like Meshuggah, Strapping Young Lad, Gojira, Chimaira, Opeth and more. Heres the sad part... I basically had a falling out with Disturbed. I no longer own all the songs, and I gave the albums to my friend. I do have a few songs I still like (The Night will always be with me). I listened to their songs to death over the years, and it's hard to listen to most of their material now without getting bored. I'm still interested in what Disturbed has in store for their 6th album. Even though it doesn't have as large as a place with me like it used to I still hold it closely as one of, if not THE Band that peaked my interest in Metal. That's it for me. I'm interested in what you people got to share.
