I do think loadouts were the worst thing to happen to Halo.

I forgot the part where PP kills all vehicles instantly. Yes, let us bow before the logic of the random internet poster who knows all.

I'd like proof for your 75,000 people on reach thing. And I think the games fine.

I play Battlefield with bullet drop so I've learned to I not aim where you are at when at a distance, I aim where you are going to be.twou So it wouldn't work.

...Your entire argument is void because the Boltshot's One hit kill range is further then the human shotgun, Scattershot, Gravity Hammer, and Sword OHKO range. If it's a counter it does a really good job of being even better then them. And you start with it.

1. No it doesn't. 2. Yes because in the heat of battle everyone hears everything. You are also assuming that everyone has the TV turned up or has a headset. Not everyone does. 3. IT HAS A OHKO RANGE THAT IS MORE THEN THE SCATTERGUN AND SHOTGUN And I'm glad your experience of the game is the same as every single other persons. By your logic, if people have the same game, everyone's experience is exactly the same with no deviation whatsoever. Do you really believe that? And in addition, people use it on every single map. Why am I going after someone in the downed pelican and being boltshotted? Because it's a easy to use weapon. I saw a guy go 28 kills in one match with it. Yeah okay. And people always say you have 1. Grenades 2. Promethean vision 3. You can just back up 1. You don't always have grenades, and if you do it's a one out of three chance you don't have frags. 2. Not everyone uses it at all (You'll never see me use it) and even then their are other abilities that you might want to use. 3. I've backed up so many times and gotten one shotted it's not even funny and regardless..the enemy CAN just move move the left stick forward...and if they do all of the sudden your great "counter" isn't so great anymore is it? In another forum I frequent. We have a sort of motto or mindset about things that are considered OP or are being called broken. In a game, if someone uses something that many people consider to be "OP" many people will argue that it has counters and therefore is not actually broken. But the mindset I am talking about says that if something can easily beat all of it's "counters" easily then it should be banned or nerfed. Grenades, Promethean vision, backing up, timing the shot, listening for it. Those are all things that can easily be beaten by even a bad player. I mean, the combo of Stealth, Camo/Promethean vision, and Dexterity is popular with Boltshot users for a reason. And what if you're not the greatest player? Should you always be rewarded with a death because you can't think on your feet instantly or you're not the best at aiming? The problem with the Boltshot is that it rewards campers, people who are average, and people who are good. You can toss it onto nearly any Loadout and have it perform well when you need it too. It, at the same time, punishes people who aren't the best, make one mistake, have the volume low, don't have grenades, don't have Promethean vision, can't back up fast enough, etc. It's overpowered because it can kill a person in one shot, at a range that takes the human shotgun TWO shots to do, and the Scattershot anywhere from 2 to five shots to kill. If you simply reduced the OHKO distance it'd be fine. They have not. So bad players and really good players are rewarded for usage of a weapon they can spawn with and everyone else get's punished for even one mistake. If that is not unfair, then what is? People are complaining for a reason and they are not doing it because they want everything nerfed. It's because they want a game were people are not rewarded for being cheap. Whether or not you agree with me is something else entirely but I'm tired of listening to people act like just because it techincally has "counters" that it means that it isn't overpowered or needs a range nerf.

I randomly booted up another profile and found that I had gotten the specialization code for that profile. Making me very lucky because I never got it with my main profile. People are not complaining because they don't know it's coming later on (most of them anyways) they are complaining because they were promised something and that promise was not delivered on. Many are stuck on level 70 knowing that they shouldn't be stuck at level 70 and that the only reason they are is because something screwed up. Within reasonable expectations, people have a right to complain about something when they were promised it and it was not delivered upon.

I only 100% Games I really like and even then I usually don't try extremely hard. I do hate, multiplayer achievements. Those are just dumb. Like the Double Spartan Laser in free for all

The last game is leading up to be a game set in this time period which means the lines will have been drawn by then.

Hey guys I'm looking for some input on my capture settings. I can't quite seem to get it right (especially the saturation) so if anyone of you with more knowledge or just some input could help me out I'd appreciate it =] I do have Sony Vegas Pro but I haven't used it in years and it's changed so I wasn't able to do much beyond sharpen it a little. So we have example one: A little to much saturation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aM2bSKuO_o Example Two: This one is without a doubt the most clear but it's still a bit off in a way that's bugging me. Saturation as well? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtKUJtDwA0g Example Three http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFp-YyWqVFU Out of them, which do you think was the best, and even then, what corrections do you think could be done? Just simple corrections will help me a lot to find the best balance

Considering what The Composer is and Does, her return is a near 100% inevitability. That being said, Halo 5 will most lilkey include a new AI that will make for some interesting interactions as Chief compares it/him/her to Cortana and it tries to prove itself to him.

Harbinger is going to play Metro 2033!
A Fhaol Bhig replied to Harbinger's topic in General Discussion
Metro 2033 is an absolutely stunning game. Last Light is set to be even better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xc2hhef-Nzo -
The best SP ever...? And the multiplayer pretty good? Yeah it's good if you can get past the horrendous lag that never goes away, cheap classes, melee whores, camping, and the horrible spawn killing. I mean, don't get me wrong. I respect your opinion but while I loved the SP it's nowhere near the best ever IMO. Anyways it's a good purchase overall regardless.

Not even close. Also, correct me if wrong, but they never said the flood were completely eradicated. That was a lie actually.

Decembers game informer helps halo 4
A Fhaol Bhig replied to Yoshi1176's topic in General Discussion
Really wanted that 100th post didn't you? -
We all know it's ironic. That's why it stopped being funny the first million times each of us heard about complaining about complaining. Also if you're making a joke you need a punchline, not a statement.
-
Yeah okay. You people live in some weird bubble where no problems can ever be solved because bringing up those problems is complaining and therefore makes the entire subject invalid. Oh he beats his wife? Don't complain about it because other people do the same thing. Let me let you in on a little secret, you don't solve any problems by avoiding them. You solve problems or at the very least discuss problems by bringing them up and discussing them. Let me direct you to a post that I made a while ago that got a lot of positive attention http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/12575-i-love-being-a-gamer-but-the-community/#entry137708 Read it and then tell me that what the OP said (while it certainly could have been posted in a less hostile manner) is wrong. IT IS A PROBLEM and it's up to the OP if he wants to discuss it. Anyways, what's it to YOU if other people complain? You're all about letting people say what they want, so let the OP talk about people who complain and how about YOU don't care about it?

I've been killed at weird ranges with it. Other then that, no problems.

I've been waiting 5 hours and I'm still stuck in back-up servers

Pro tip, play solo. -
Carbine is usable, but still like shooting the FAMAS in Battlefield 3. Don't even get me started on the PP in actually killing people with it. Other then that, I completely agree. (Though the incinerator cannon one shotting everything in one hit is kind of iffy)

Are game companies babying us nowadays?
A Fhaol Bhig replied to OMG Treason's topic in General Discussion
Yeah because games like Frogger and Tetris need massive waypoints and explanations. Games are more popular then ever, with popularity comes newcomers. With games being better looking and having more things in them then ever before (Go ahead and tell me that Super Mario World would be more overwhelming to someone new to games then one like Call of Duty would) people need help. You don't need help? That's fine. It's not for YOU. It's for others. I want you to consider the production value of a game today, all the costs needed to make it and compare it to a game back in the 90's. Today's games are a lot more complex meaning they take more time to make or more people or more money or all of the above. So yes, they are shorter. Whether you like COD or not, can you seriously imagine how much money and time it would take to make a SP longer then 16 hours? With all the other things included? It's not babying, it's economics. You may view that differently in your opinion, but ultimately it's about money not about you.
