Victory Element

i cant wait for season 2. the gameplay has kinda been ruined for me becuase theres so much lag, but i love the storyline

i dont think his debriefing would take months to go over, maybe a week at the most. I think its very possible hes training spartan IVs on earth, or he may just show up in season 2

its not cortana, its just the soul of a random human from new pheonix. Near the end of the campaign, the didact and his fleet attacked earth with the composer. The composer turns organic life into an artificial intelligence, so the souls of the humans from new pheonix were converted into promethean AIs. The original purpose of the composer was to make the forerunners inorganic so the flood couldnt consume them, and later they could try to convert themselves back into an organic form, but that process failed. Ancient humans had also been converted into monitors with the composer. Humans and forerunners were primarily enemies, but the reason for this was to try to preserve the human species. for example, 343 guilty spark was once a human companion of the didact. ive also had hunch that Dr. halsey had created technology similar to the composer when she created cortana. cortana was made to be an exact copy of halsey, except in the form of an AI. In her lab in that underground ice cave (halo reach), i do recall that she had been experimenting with forerunner technology in order to create cortana. I do feel that there is some connection between the two

The mantis can be used very effectively if it has a smart driver and the other team is not communicating. If half of a team can concentrate fire on a mantis, it can easily be overwhelmed. ghosts work as a great distractions that can break mantis shields quickly and keep it spinning in circles. Almost every player has instant access to the plasma pistol to temporarily disable the mantis. Some one can eaily board it when its EMPed, or teams can focus all fire on the mantis and destroy it from mid range. Destroying the mantis relies on pure teamwork

i think a new class for SMGs should be made, which would include the orignal plasma rifle, SMG, spiker, etc

i doesnt really matter if people boost to level 130 or if they are level 10, both can be in the same game together. There is a ranking system, but 343 failed to make it visible to players. The say it will be visible at some point, it is there working in the background for now. halo 4 does also need competitive and social playlists. I hate playing with a guest and our team just gets pummeled because he dies 25 times at the hands of expereinced players

i've had to use the same words on soooo many occassions

thanks very much

i'm getting close to completing my pioneer specialization and receiveing the fast track support upgrade. I know that its suppossed to help your spartan level up faster, but i do have a few questions about how it works. 1) How does it increase leveling up?? Does it grant more XP at the end of games, or cut down the required amount of XP to level up?? 2) How often must you use it in order to level up faster?? Do i need to play an entire game using a loadout with fast track?? Or can i just change loadouts at any point in the game and still receive the benefits from it?? 3) How will it work in certain game modes?? If i'm playing SWAT or flood and there are preset loadouts, will fast track still affect the speed i rank up?? if someone could answer these questions that would help a lot. I want to see if this support package is really worth it, or if it doesnt live up to name

343i made it so the AR could compete with other weapons like the BR and DMR. Otherwise it would be completely useless with custom loadouts

the light rifle has 2 main problems: 1)slow rof when unscoped 2) lack of aim assist both can be fixed easily to give this weapon its full potential

ressurection at the end of halo 6

patience

try Frank O'Connor or Kiki Wolfkill. I dont have twitter myself, but those would be the names to look for

if youre already level 100+, then you have way to much free time on your hands. think of the level cap as an eye opener to how you choose to spend your life

this says it all. Its normally just a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Some firerfights just end up as a swimming pool of grenades and youre dead before you even get a shot off (*cough *cough Haven). Its just a matter of becoming a better player in some aspects. You need to know where you can engage the enemy without getting spammed with grenades, or when to pursue an opponent. Choose your battles wisely, and dont take uneccessary risks that will get you killed

true, but the lucky one who survived made the covies pay for it

grunts- killed with a quick headshot, automatic weapons are less effective, use percision weapons jackals- when in groups toss a grenade so they expose themselves, when behind the shield hit the exposed hand and finish off with a headshot after it draws back in pain elites- use plasma based weapons to quickly take down shields, charged plasma pistol works best, finish off with a headshot hunters- always in pairs so constantly watch your back, use holograms or grenades to distract them then strafe behind one, they only take damage from the rear, avoid getting too close whether you're behind it or not becuase of its deadly melee, constantly jump to avoid fuel rod cannon must kill prometheans in specific order for best results: 1) watchers- simply shoot it down, best with percision weapon, protects other prometheans from damage so destroy first priority 2) crawlers- do not get stuck in the open around them, easiest to kill with a quick headshot, head is the glowing orange area, automatic weapons work for close range as well 3)knights- save these guys for last, get in their face with an automatic weapon, normally dies from a full clip, sometimes a melee is required to finish it off, always stay moving to avoid its sword and/or scattershot for some knights ghosts- biggest pain in the neck, destory with rockets or other heavy weapon, soemtimes possible to shoot out the driver, best to EMP with charged plasma pistol then hyjack it banshees- shoot down with heavy weapon, EMP then hyjack (wont always work in specific missions) wraith- keep your distances and eliminate the exposed gunner so you can get close, always stay moving to avoid the plasma bombs, oncce gunner is killed EMP then jump on board, plant a grenade or melee until it explodes hope this helps

i thought the general plot of the campaign was very engaging with the forerunners and the composer, but the way they put it all together took a lot away from it. It became way too repetative, and the background story felt like it would seem very unclear for those who may not have followed the halo fiction. But i will say, the scenery in general was breathtaking if you let your eyes wander a bit from the battle

one reason for the differences between chief and the spartan IVs is because of strategy. The UNSC figured they could mass produce spartans that would be less effective and take less time to create. They would have an advantage in numbers and could easily be replaced. On the other hand, a spartan II like chief is much more effective in combat, but loosing one can be extremely detrimental

its nice to see the communty sharing the fun with each other. I'm also excited for the old remakes nice job

as Virus said, it sounds like its your connection. Spartan ops does frequently lag for me, but everything else seems to work fine. As for your in game progress being reset, it may be a problem with your xbox or system storage

i can't say that i've ever experienced fall damage in multiplayer. I think they have it so players don't accidently kill themselves if they're just backing up. Or it may be to keep the game flowing more smoothly

Wow, i never really took the sword and hammer into consideration..... But if there's no brutes, then i see no reason to keep the hammer(except for custom games). so it may need a replacement weapon to change things up a bit
