      Would be great if Donut was here to answer a PM for submissions :(

  2. I should be available most of tomorrow. My GT is Sikslik7, so if you want to send me a reminder message, go ahead. Prepare to gain insight.
  3. Skyrim, you can play for weeks, and then just all of a sudden get sick of it, then come back two months later and play it again and again. The game just doesn't end, even when you get bored with a character, you just restart. Get the Legendary edition, so you get all the dlc for free, it will save you about 50%.
  4. I have tried similar things, with little success. You have three options: pay for a new disc, rent the game and switch the discs, or find a disc repair shop, (typically most collector shops have one).
  5. Why have a Youtube video in 1080p if it is for music and you have one image? Why?

      It's an indicator that the music video is clearer then most of the same videos on Youtube.

  6. I do not believe you can download the video's onto your computer anymore from Waypoint, but I think there is a site that gets it from your fileshare. But Screen shots you can. Otherwise, for $200 you can invest in really good capture equipment.
  7. Stepping out of the Portal, Sikslik7 smiled at the familiar sound of metal on metal, and the whir of computers."Finally, a round inside." He looked around and found himself in a room full of computer screens, each displaying diagnostics of some sort. Bending over to look closer at one terminal with a diagram on it, and his smile faded. "An abandoned ship? Just drifting in space!" he thought to himself. He glanced at another screen, to find that sensors and communication were down and the navigation system damaged. "Not good, not good at all." He noticed a flashing messages on another screen and inspected it. "Evac Protocol Issued". He pressed the screen and an audio file began to play. "This is the captain speaking. During the last Jump our communication and navigation systems were damaged beyond repair. We seem to have also jumped to a random location, so our location is unknown. I am issuing an evacuation order and will be initiate the ship's self destruct sequence. You have one hour to board the escape pods. Thank you and have a great day." Sikslik7 looked at the final screen, and his stomach sank. One message remained solid on the screen. "All Escape Pods Fired, Self Destruct Sequence Paused, Time Left: One hour, twenty three minutes and four seconds." "Paused, why paused? No, someone can't have stayed behind. Unless this is on purpose." Sikslik7 looked back at the ship's diagram and shouldered his Battle Rifle, "Time to meet the inhabitants."
  8. Pretty much as long as you aren't generating funds from it, and you follow the other rules, you're good: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/community/developer/rules Also, if you draw it or make the places yourself, then the above really doesn't apply, as it is your work, but if you used pictures, then that will involve the developer rules.
  9. Indeed I believe you have to kill someone and then not move from that spot. I don't know about Turning or moving your camera, but I got it on Longbow while defending my base on the turrent of a hog, and no one drove. I did change angles during that time, but I got it.

    Hello!

    You need to have a post count of five to use the shoutbox, spam issues are the main reason.

    Hello!

    Welcome to the forums! If you ever need any help, don't be afraid to ask!
  12. Yep, inadevrtantly picked the wrong action.... Right next to each other, mmm hmmm. You aren't in politics AD, or are you? Who am I kidding. I completely believe you. I just like mocking people in jest. I also like pink ballerinas.
  13. I hate how no one thinks we came swim in Halo. We can, boot up Sierra 117 in Halo 3, and when the pelican is attacked, go into the water on the right most side, you'll understand.

      Play on that Silent Cartogropher mission (or something like that) in Halo: CE and you can go really far into the water without dying.

  14. Lock and Load, I'm going to bring about another round of hurting.
  15. Got eliminated in the Halocustoms Tourny today, man, I've hated Rail for the longest time and it was my downfall.

      You represented us well Slik! We are all proud of you! :)

  16. Yeah, I knew that. In fact, There was a pretty major tour by Boy Scouts about two years ago there. In fact, it is just a testing sight for planes, especially spy planes back in the cold war days. They would take pictures here and in the actual location and cut the plane out to put in the public files so nothing about the location could be given away in the background.
  17. Alright, here goes my response: First, try to use paragraphs to separate your ideas. It also prevents "blocking" which just leads to people skipping what you wrote. DMR controversy: The DMR isn't classic, it was introduced in Reach, while the BR and carbine have been in Halo since Halo 2. In SWAT, the DMR and BR do the same damage, however they act differently. Both take one headshot to kill, or three chest shots. The DMR fires one round, which has a higher magnetism, but doesn't spread at all. The BR fires three rounds in a spread with less magnetism. With the DMR you have to almost be on their head to kill them, but with the BR, you can be farther off. However, since the BR does spread, it is not as effective at longer ranges. The DMR also has a higher rate of fire than the BR. The game is balanced, but when Halo 4 first came out, the DMR was much more powerful. Flood Games: I agree that the selection of flood gametypes in minimal, and the base gametype isn't very fun. The fact of the matter is, 343i screwed up majorly on gametypes. They left out assault, headhunter, stockpile, and one sided objective games (one flag, invasion, even firefight). For voting in matchmaking, wait a while for others to vote, if it is clear the game type you want won't get picked, you can still back out if you haven't voted. Campaign and Spartan Ops: Campaign was fun the first time, but doesn't have the same replayability factor that the other Halos have. It felt like Halo though, so it was fine. Spartan OPs was meant to replace firefight, and does a good job of it. I would want both next time around, but I won't complain if we don't have one or the other. In Spartan Ops, you always played as Crimson, and it was meant to be like "oh, my friends and I are Crimson." It was meant to be a transitional period between the Halo games. However, they stopped production for a second season of it, which sucks, because another season, even if it didn't progress they storyline would have opened up the Halo universe to a much larger scale (think about it, flood cleanup on a Halo Ring, Attacking Storm Covenant ships or bases, even fighting insurectionists). DLC and Updates: There are three DLC map packs currently out for a total of 9 maps, 6 medium/large and three small. Then add in a better forge map (forge island) and now two new medium sized maps coming out next week in addition to a new gametype plus two new armor abilities and more weapon and armor skins plus new armor in the Champions bundle for the equivalent of 800 MS points. The new maps are decent, and add some diversity to games. The updates happen every other week or so and are posted on Halowaypoint. Some are minor tweaks to maps and gametype, but others are much larger. Whenever a new gametype in matchmaking comes out, they release all of the schematics for the gametype in those updates as well. So, do I think 343i could have done a better job? Yes, but they are starting to pick up the slack the last three months and are doing a good job of it. The next Halo game will be much better. As it happens, they were working on Spartan Assault earlier this year to release, so they were very busy in the past, but they can do a good job once they aren't preoccupied in three games (Halo 4, 5, and SA).

  19. So true! Whenever something cool happens, dumb stuff happens right afterwards.
  20. Despite losing to Dax onhis map, I am still in after winning in the losers bracket! Team 343i on Halocustoms!

  21. The one day I have a major power outage! Who's ready for some customs?

  22. After some testing, I have found that you cannot force the hills to spawn in any specific order by settings in a gametype or by editing the hill zone in forge. Most of the time, the new hill will spawn in the best location for both teams. The game will try to spawn a new hill that both teams have to move to, and is typically equidistant for the teams. The only way to force a certain change in hills, ( which will work only part of the time) is to set up your spawns so that for each hill, the logical spawns for the game also would make the next hill a logical choice. For example, take this clock as your map: Now, let's say you have a hill at 12, 3, 6, and 9, and the first hill the game always starts with the hill as 12. You want the game to spawn the teams somewhere around 9 and 3, but closer to 12 than 6, so even if one team starts to much the other team back into their spawn, the game register the best hill as 6. It will take lots of patience and playtesting, but when it works, it will be worth it. Goodluck! And remember, the game measures distance as the crow flies, and through objects, not by the paths for players.
  23. Customs on Tuesday?
