Halo: Reach Discussion

[sevlag]

i think we just need to have gearbox work on ANY halo PC port.

liking what they did with E slayer in Reach, no more AL nade spam (not as much anyway)

[annihilation]

Now if only they can do the same with regular slayer.

But grenades are evil.

Well, looks like the Forgetacular contest is over. I just glanced at the winners and saw that JoeSki guy won a category. What are the odds, huh? The very first community member that somehow gets his map into matchmaking also wins the contest with another of his creations. That just looks shady from a number of angles and I didn't even participate in that category.

Oh well, if I'm going to get pissed off about the contest, it won't be because of that or not winning. If I'm going to get pissed off, it would be over the fact that one of my entries is still sitting at 0 downloads. Turns out I'm not pissed about that, either. Even though it's bullshit.

E: Turns out they don't download from the File Share; they get it off the server's back-end. That possibility had occurred to me, but I guess I kind of dismissed it, because it seemed like the easiest thing to do is just a straight download. So, that answers that.

Unless they are lying! DUN DUN DUUUUN!

but you're too busy playing black cops which is an incomparable game due to there seems to be no other game to compare it to.

while i've been playing a mix of AC:brotherhood, gears 2, and Fo:NV on the xbox (PC has me doing SCII,TF2 and a few other games)

Reach still suffers from nades which makes me a sad panda

You have to many vidya james.

And Armor Lock doesn't help with the grenades that much.

Armor lock is more of some tramp who only puts up with some of the shit in life then when you really need her to be there she's left you for another man.
Bitch.

Shaders/particle effects/cubemaps weren't missing from the game, they just weren't implemented. Cases in point: assault rifle, Fuel Rod Cannon, Shield Door on T&R, Flag Pole, Jackal Shields.

And yeah, I actually prefer Halo's netcode to the lagtastic bullshit shenanigans I see in BC2.

Ironically most of those free to play indie games (Sauerbraten, Wolf team, Combat arms) all have perfect hit detection, regardless of lag. you'll often get simultaneous kills, but hey it's fair for both players..

halo pc's netcode just pisses me off.. not just the hit detection, but everything in general, the lack of AI, triggers, all that

well gears 2 to get ready for 3, AC:B because multiplayer doesnt have me going "thats bullshit" or "what i had him", and the PC games because i can

[TeeKup]

^ That's what made AC:B amazing. I never ONCE found myself raging at that multiplayer. Whenever I was scoffing at something it was myself for being to hasty or etc.
