A little over 100k away from Hero...

That's a good question. I know somebody was having difficult in the Name the Song thread with the word ******. Edit: That answers that question. Totally censored it out.

Crap, One beat me to it. Oh well.

Hm. I don't ever remember having an issue with a load failure on DLC... but it could still be the CD, or in the case of DLC, a corrupt file. I was just playing with my sister-in-law and her fiancee last weekend, and couldn't play any of the Anniversary maps, yet I know they have them. Made them party leader and behold, the files got corrupted and they had to redownload the map pack.

Tis a quote from Inception, but it's not 100% accurate?

Welcome! Like Dan said, head on over to that thread for the latest information on AC. The main post covers everything from Archive 01 and beyond, with a link to AC's main page if you want to check out things from from further back. Enjoy your time here, it's been a blast for me!

I applaud this well thought out post. Well said! It's refreshing to see somebody accept the fact that armor abilities are going to be in the game, and not whine about it. You brought up some very good points. So! On to your comments, then. I agree 100% about sprint. It absolutely belongs as a default, everbody has it ability. It's been mentioned in other threads to expand on it slightly, though. Combine evade and sprint, making it possible to sprint forward or evade backwards. The reason for this was for a sprinter using the sword, however with shots slowing you down if you're sprinting now, I don't know if it's needed any more. Thoughts? Armor lock is out, so no need to worry about that one! Jet pack on the other hand is still in. The only thing I can say about this is hopefully the maps will be better suited not just for the use of jet pack, but all of the armor abilities. With Reach, the multiplayer maps were mostly just ports of campaign levels, and then forge world. Hopefully with all of the multiplayer maps for Halo 4 being built from scratch, they are taking jet pack into consideration. With armor abilities, I'm going to assume they're in all the playlists until I hear otherwise. With that being said though, if they do them well, and the maps are designed to function with and without their use, then I don't see it as being that big of a problem for them being in Team Slayer, Arena, Team Doubles etc.

Not particularly, but it's cool! Gave me a laugh, though. For that you get a Like. But, like I said, people do need to stop ranting about why the game is going to be terrible. I don't say they need to "accept change" or "adapt" - - all I say is that they should try. If they still don't like it after giving the game a chance, that it's not their cup of tea? So be it, at least they gave it a shot and didn't act so arrogantly. Who knows? I could be one of those people. So could you, Constantly, or the OP. But without giving the game a chance, and all of these people claiming that they are not going to play the game? That's just being stupid.

What are we refering to here? If it's the OP where it's stated that there is no 1-50, don't read too much into that, because it hasn't been confirmed nor denied.

This is just another useless post. While I may not agree 100% with the way the OP went about this, I do agree with the ideas inside the post. The comparing the game to CoD does need to stop, and the constant complaining needs to stop. I understand there are people who don't like the direction the game seems to be going, but without playing it, reserve the right to try it for yourself before passing judgement.

I dunno.. a good set of headphones is definitely an awesome plus, but a surround system set up with top notch equipment? Could give HD headphones a run for their money. Edit: Oh, and congrats on MoM!

Again, looking at specific data from in a game. How many games are played in a single hour? Is it possible to create an automated system to search for specific actions inside of a game? Somebody like Twin could shed some light on the possibility of a system like this.

Or it could be further along in the new trilogy, rather than specifically in Halo 4. I don't see the Chief returning to Earth in Halo 4. Great, now I get to go searching. You don't happen to remember which artifact it was, do you?

Unfortunately, it would be very hard to track. Rather than an automated program sifting through game records to look at kills/points per game, you're asking for a system that actually looks at all of the gameplay to look for movements. I don't know if it's even possible.

I don't know how much stuff like that they are going to be willing to add into the game at this point. We're just over six months out. It depends on where they stand with the game. Chances are, even with a petition, at this point nothing will be done about it.

Which other coordinates? I don't remember seeing them, but at this point, it could just be that all of the information is starting to run together in my mind.

Nobody says they won't have one. The video referenced in the OP never says that there won't be a 1-50 system. Keep your fingers crossed.

Wow, long intro post. Informative, though! LOVE Bloody Roar... god I haven't played that game in ages. Anyway, welcome to the forums! You'll find the people here are generally really helpful and fun, so enjoy!

If you get around to it, let me know what you think of them. I was just looking at a pair the other day, and was contemplating the purchase.

Like Shiv said, only discussing. Also, putting it in the text is one thing, but there is no confirmation about the inclusion of a 1-50 system or not. Not from the video in the thread by by DeadlySniper19, at least. If you have a confirmation from somewhere else, I'd love to see it. Again, not arguing, only pointing out that just because you said it in the OP doesn't make it fact, especially since the video does not say "there is no 1-50 ranking system" and it's all speculation on Halo4Followers part.

http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/8441-ranking-system-leaked/ There's the link to the thread with the video. Let me know your take from it, Shiv.

This "leaked" information... all we are doing is speculating on it. Do you gain EXP for just wins, or do you gain it after every game? If it's for just wins, then I can see it working off of a 1-50 system in the background, but even if it doesn't, if you're playing somebody that's a higher rank, you know they got there by winning a lot of games. Without 343 actually saying what they are doing with the ranking, I'd say everybody should hold off on judgements because we currently don't have enough hard evidence to support the fact that there is no 1-50 system. I didn't see this confirmation that there is no 1-50 system in said video, so I don't know where this information came from.

Going to follow ZB's approach to this... SWAT Invasion Team Slayer Big Team Battle

You go to halo.xbox.com, go to challenges. From there, you can set your custom challenges, once that's done, and you complete them, head back to halo.xbox.com and go back to your challenges page. There should be a button that says "Turn In". Once you do that, you'll get credit for completing the challenge, and I think the credits are distributed at the end of the day when normal challenges switch over.
