Halo Thread: Games, TV, Movies and Books

Playing this tonight before BO2 tomorrow.

Hopefully I won’t get stuck in a lobby with level 40+ guys that camp in their base/occupy a portion of the map and just pot-shot us with their Sniper Rifles, DMRs, BRs -_-

aka a good squad that has ran plenty of Halo hours together?

Mantis tank is so awesome. It’s a little Mini Metal Gear Rex. It even has a Ray-dome.

Pretty fed up with FFA, same 2 maps getting voted. Big Team Slayer is a tonne of fun, really easy to get kill streaks

You’re afraid of people camping in one small portion of the map, so you’re going to go play cod?
Good luck with that.
At least you won’t have to worry about randoms being totally unhelpful.

I am going to beg my wife to buy me this shit tonight lol.

Pix of wife.

I’m liking it so far, don’t know if i was playing against squads but i was shitting on lvl 30-40’s lol.One thing that i thought was really good is the power upgrade from the ordnance drop, when i have that on i feel unstoppable.I agree that it’s balanced because everyone is using BR’s/DMR’s lol and of course the weapons from ordnance drops are up to par with them.i just wish there were more variety in primary’s that can keep up with the BR/DMR. I was surprised no one on my friend list that plays halo was on last night, well it was pretty late when i started playing like 2-7am.So yeah overall positive first impressions.

fail

Lulz wrong thread XD

I miss playing as an Elite. =/

HAHA DOH!

Yeah… the more I play, the more this stands out as a glaring problem for me. I can’t really play much of the same game-type until the same map keeps getting voted up like 3 times in a row.

If I recall though, Reach didn’t have many maps when it started out and then several more were added on later (correct me if I’m wrong). Hopefully, the same is done for Halo 4.

I decided to play some of the campaign and holy crap these areas and cut-scenes are PURDEY

Its not that people can make their own its that halo always had these issues at launch because the maps have a certain size in which they should be played ranging from 4-16 players.

Unlike something like gears or war which all maps are built around the 5v5 aspect. So the both ship 10 but halo seems less due to the maps catering to team sizes.

No sir not here look on my facebook page.

Promethean Knights can eat a dick.

It feels like they take forever to kill on Legendary. Tedious battles.

Aim for the head, once you do enough damage they will open up their helmet/mask revealing a small opening, just 1 shot to their glowing face will instantly kill them. Watch out for the little drones they will bring them back to life, you have to either take those out first or destroy them immediately after.

Another tactic which I had to use on the last level because I almost ran out of ammo was to get them to teleport lunge at you. Just dodge out the way and instant assassinate them. You can use the hologram to trick them into turning their back also, and the hologram comes in really handy when you need to escape from multiple Knights.

most fun i ever had playing Halo was on Invasion during the Reach Beta

got on the Elite team, everyone have mics and spoke only saying WORT, BLARG, or HONK! :rofl:
