Halo series - Crimson Map Pack out now!

[rhan]

Halo reach is the most fun game ever! But it doesn't compare to the halo 3 ranking system!

 

[Pluvia]

I don't think anyone cared about the Halo 3 ranking system.

 

[rhan]

How are you even able to say that? lol

 

[Master Xanthan]

I hated the halo 3 ranking system. Especially the rank lock, like you would have to win 5 games to go to up a rank, you lose like 1 or 2 games and you go down. I still enjoyed halo 3 despite the ranking system but I really like the fact that Reach doesn't have visible ranks. Plus, people also boosted to get higher ranks in halo 3, with Reach since there are no visible 1-50 ranks, people don't boost as much.

Edit: And yeah I'm definitely getting the Noble Map Pack, 10 dollars is a great price(and is the price that the MW2 maps should have originally been).

Hype for new maps <3
So CHEAPPPPPPPPPPPP

 

[Pluvia]

How are you even able to say that? lol

I mean I didn't even remember there was a Halo 3 ranking system. Apparently if you quit or something you would go down a rank? That was a pretty crappy system, I quit all the time and was completely oblivious to the ranking system.

You lost exp. You don't necessarily go down a rank. It was a more reasonable punishment for quitters then a 15 minute ban.

So my parents have decided to go on a "banhammer" spree, worse than that of Bungie. They've indefinitely taken my xbox away, they said they weren't going to let me use the computer (hopefully I keep my ipod touch....) and they even said they're not going to let me go over a friend's house, effectively taking my friends away as part of this punishment. So yea, I have no idea when I'll be able to get on Reach again......

sadface

 

[rhan]

Earn a double kill right now irl.

JK PLEASE DON'T LISTEN TO ME!

But yeah that blows... I'm glad I moved out of my mom's house. Now I just get the wrath of my grandma.. But I pay for my stuff so she has no say so on what I do with it.

Btw: Never checked. But what maps come in the pack?

 

[ThunderSt0rm]

lol I'd never do that, but they're even threatening to throw me out or take me to some kind of help center thing, all because I can't wake up in the morning becuase I'm tired.....

Uhh, the maps are Tempest, Anchor 9 and Breakpoint. Tempest and Breakpoint are larger mapsmeant for gametypes like BTB and Invasion (Breakpoint) while Anchor 9 is said to be smaller recommending 2-8 players, good for TS, etc.

 

[@TKbreezy]

wow...just get 4 alarm clocks...set them all at the right time and set them in a trail that leads to the bathroom

after you stand up and wash your face you should be fine

I have a problem with getting up in the morning also and that was my solution

1. alarm clock is next to bed

2. one alarm clock in the doorway (which makes me get up)

3. one in the other doorway (i have like a double room thing)

4. one in the bathroom...lol

 

[Pikaville]

I made a giant robot in forge yesterday.

Also, me and my friend Eoghan went undefeated in Arena doubles yesterday using the double armor lock strategy.

It *****. :D

I seriously need to get on with you guys.(I spend so much time talking to TigerWoods these days)

 

[@TKbreezy]

I have yet to play arena slayer...only arena doubles...**** is intense though

 

[Pluvia]

Multi team with my mate Jordan is awesome. We just destroy in everything.

 

[@TKbreezy]

my bad f8al...reflex typing...loll

Through experience, allow me to relate;

1) There HAS to be something else either a) you're not telling us (which is fine. Your business), b) they aren't telling YOU, c) frakkin' suck, d) You're doing something you don't know is pissing them off.

2) By law, and in most states, unless you are 18 years of age, they cannot kick you out for any reason. They CAN send you to a help home/center/place, but they cannot kick you out.

3) If you ARE in trouble, or ARE suffering abuse of some sort, there are ALWAYS people to call. Taking away an Xbox does not constitute as such a thing, but if something else is going on behind the scenes, call someone.

4) If you are under the age of 23, your parents will always be right no matter how right you may in fact actually be. Get used to it. :shrug:

/rant about avoiding trouble with the rents.

I was kicked out of my parents house 3 times, all for stupid *** reasons I regret. Except the last time. That was just dumb all around, and they kicked me for a dumb reason.

Anyway, moving away from this topic.

New maps. Woo!

Or have a phone that has an alarm clock function that plays the Nuke alarm from CoD. Wakes me, the wife, and the dog up. Wife hates me, but I'm up.

I made a giant robot in forge yesterday.


I seriously need to get on with you guys.(I spend so much time talking to TigerWoods these days)

My forge map is being redone. I went from a small, poopy frigate to a hopefully giant, fun layout (planned) that will work better as an invasion map. Anyone is welcome to come look at it with me when I'm on. I'll most likely be working on it for a while.

... stupid spawns and invasion marker setups...

 

[rhan]

Worth the watch.

Hot diggity dawg that was hot!

EDIT: Someone a while ago mentioned Auntie Dot sounding like someone from God of War. They almost have an ear worthy of competing with me when it comes to actors/voice actors.

Ehh it's not that I'm leaving stuff out, I was just saying the situation sucks. The problem has been me not getting to bed on time and them having a hard time with me not getting up easily for school.

2) By law, and in most states, unless you are 18 years of age, they cannot kick you out for any reason. They CAN send you to a help home/center/place, but they cannot kick you out.

I turn 18 in February. They've also said before that I better go look for jobs so that I can support myself and w/e.

3) If you ARE in trouble, or ARE suffering abuse of some sort, there are ALWAYS people to call. Taking away an Xbox does not constitute as such a thing, but if something else is going on behind the scenes, call someone.

Oh no, nothing like that is happening. The only problem is my sister, she has no respect for my parents and finds every second she can to annoy you and such. Imo she really needs help but so far nothing has helped......

 

[F8AL]

Thunder, I am sympathetic for your current situation, but this really isn't the right thread to be discussing it.

 

[Master Xanthan]

They're being jerks just because of that? Wow. Not being able to wake up in the morning is called being a teen. Actually its more like just being a human.

Edit: To get back on topic, the pictures of the maps all look pretty good. I"m looking forward to this map pack. 10 dollars for maps that are actually, good, yes please.

 

[O D I N]

You should've shown up in a UNSC service dress uniform. You'd have been the **** of the walk!

Also, I'm gonna need your input on maps. (b' . 'd)


EDIT: Seriously? That phrase is bleeped out? O_o

Okay... You'd have been the 'Alternative word for a Rooster' of the walk!

 

[Pikaville]

Think any Halo 3 maps will return?

I'm hoping for the pit to come back.

It's probably my favorite Halo map ever.

 

[O D I N]

I'm happy with Pit, Construct, and Guardian.

 

[ThunderSt0rm]

Sry F8AL D:

I may be able to play tonight, but no guarantees.

Probably. I see no reason why they wouldn't do that for Reach.

Glad to hear you like The Pit too! (One of my favorite maps in Halo 3 along with Guardian and Valhalla).

Maybe some sort of "Halo 3 flashback map pack" in the future?

 

[ThunderSt0rm]

Maybe some sort of "Halo 3 flashback map pack" in the future?

If not a 'flashback map pack' then hopefully someone makes a true remake of The Pit in forge. It's easily done since it's a fairly symmetrical and simple map layout.

 

[rhan]

Who wants to get wrecked by my bro and I?

 

[Pluvia]

Got that Nightfall challenge in a few minutes. I like the fact that you can just run past every bad guy then glitch through that gate at the end.

This is news to me. How to do this? :D

 

[F8AL]

So far, Nightfall was the hardest level to beat on legendary difficulty alone.

I'm currently on the level where you have to storm the beach and then fly around like StarFox.

This is news to me. How to do this? :D

I second the motion. How'd you do it?

DO A BARREL ROLL!!!!!!

Noble Actual is by far the hardest level to complete on legendary. Took me around 5 seconds to finally beat it.........

 

[F8AL]

I died at the end of that level...I suck.

 

[Master Xanthan]

You guys beat Noble Actual!? I'm STILL stuck on that mission.

 

[F8AL]

You guys beat Noble Actual!? I'm STILL stuck on that mission.

I know, right? I keep on dying at that mission!

 

[Pluvia]

Go to my fileshare and download Nightfall. Its me getting the challenge complete for the two other guys that's in the match with me, I die but I wouldn't have if the Elite that's not supposed to notice me did what he's supposed to and not notice me.

The hell are you three on aboot?

Look, just because it took me 5 tries, doesn't mean it's doable the first time.

 

[ThunderSt0rm]

I died at the end of that level...I suck.

Died at the end......wha? I die every time at the start of the mission and every time my helmet is the only thing left of me.......and at the end of campaign as well. Bungie has effectively found a way to infinite loop Noble Actual so that you never complete it.

ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

The hell are you three on aboot?

Look, just because it took me 5 tries, doesn't mean it's doable the first time.

Haters gonna hate. I'll take as long as I need to complete THE hardest mission bungie has ever created.

In other news, XBOX GET! Imma go play reach and stuff

 

[F8AL]

Guys, help! I keep on dying at the end of the "Lone Wolf" mission!

HELP!

 

[O D I N]

All right F8AL, I'll help. Here's what you gotta do.

1) Grab your ankles.

2) Kiss your *** goodbye.

3) ???

4) Profit!
