Indeed. Either record as a group (probably the best but logisitcs can come into this) and then either edit in yourself or send it and I'll sort it.

Oh dear lord... We're all going to die...

I too support this. For the lulz.

As, when it comes to movie soundtracks, Hans Zimmer is a god.

Feel free to use it then. I can't be much help on the filming side unless someone how as Minecraft PC server (as that's the only game I have with access to online play) but I'd be happy to help with the writing process.

The idea of a HUB sounds interesting, maybe with the active acknowledgement that there's various ways to 'jump into' the various games that you are using i.e. like a door/portal/computer program to jump into minecraft etc. or something? Would sort of explain the jump but also open ideas. I think serial idea would be interesting; you wouldn't need to use the same characters every time, especially if people couldn't make certain weeks/episodes but it will still keep a general theme running through it. If you want to keep in somewhat topical (and also a way to create in-jokes but also an externally accessible series) maybe the idea of the main organisation/group/company/city, or whatever you want to base it on and then have a shadowy organisation working in the darkness trying to bring the organisation down from the inside. They could be sending agents or various programs into the different games trying to cut off access to the outside with ultimately gaining control. Maybe the 'heroes' are teams put together to fight back, track these people down and win the day. Would allow potentially different people for different games and a main story line in Halo as well.

Same way that you make Nitroglycerin at home as you once said? No, no you didn't. To be honest you're sprouting terms you have no basis in and saying they're the perfect solution. Yeah sure stick things in the desert, never mind the hundread's of metres of cable required to transport the electricity from the station. Tell me what genuine background you have in fields such as this (i.e. qualifications, and consideirng you've alread said you're at school and I distincly remember saying you're under 16 I doubt very little) and I might accept even 10% of what you say. Other than that you are ignoring any comment that doesn't support you while sprouting terms you can get from a simple wikipedia search. Well done. The fact is that neither method is perfect and both have their ups and downs. However solar panels are not useless, convert light directly to electricty and all in all are actually fairly good, especially for certain aspects like having your home powered by them. End of.

You're using words to try and cover the general premise. That being the Fresnel lenses are used to focus sunlight onto solar cells. So you would still need solar cells. Thus, not pointless. Furthermore the use of mirrors create an similar 'eyesore' that you so decry. Thanks for playing though. TomEdit: I also apologise if this post seems rude but the fact is I know what I'm talking about, at least in this, and certain other, areas. I'm glad that you have an interest in science as I have a keen focus on encouraging people to go into the a science orientated career whatever field that may be. But that whole point of science is looking at things objectively and factually, something which you haven't quite done. You've thrown around concepts and ideas with apparently little knowledge in the field; and no wikipedia doesn't count as a source. Plus the language you use and the way you try to get your message across is brazen, atrocious and antagonistic, none of which makes people want to come in and have a discuss. In fact I read your post and came in purely to prove your points wrong where they were wrong, to the best of my knowledge. Realistically I would have preferred to have a discussion but saying "This is wrong and this is right, plus people dying is fine and anyone that doesn't take my view is an idiot" is not only an awful method at establishing your view point and side of the discussion but also a way at not getting places in general life. The fact is there are a whole catalogue of ideas all offering something and all having their downfalls. Trust me, there is reason we don't have a bunch of solar panels in the desert. I will be happy to talk about the methods and use what I know to have a discussion but the fact is throwing your weight around when you don't have some of your facts in line isn't a good place to encourage me, or anyone else to do so.

Sorry solar panels are worthless? Your facts are wrong. Enough energy hits the earth from the sun in an hour to cover the amount of energy used by the Earth in a year. To put it in numerical terms the the amount that hits in a year is of the magnitude of around 10^24 J. Even photosynthesis 'only' harness ~ 10^21 J. This is still more than enough. Saying that they are worthless means you don't know your facts. Yes at the moment we can only manufacture solar panels with about ~20-40% efficiency of conversion of light to electricity. This however increases with new advances in technology as do all advancements. To be honest the fact that you refer to it as glass means you have skewed facts. Perhaps you need to check them instead. Don't get me wrong glass is used in their construction but they are more than that. Solar panels in the nature of them are useful; they provide a sustainable source of energy that could provide energy not only enough to support the earth but also to provide easy energy to places that have access to large periods of sun but ultimately don't have access to power-stations and such-forth. Power stations have failed because of human error? Yes the mixing of NaK with H2O resulting in the explosion of a power station in Russia (and others) was not down to the fact that the pipes burst resulting in the contact of these two substances and the ultimately explosive result. But to claify your opinion of death being meaningless (obviously an attempt to sstir up trouble but I will reply with an logical response anyway); You are saying you are 100% happy if it was your life that would be lost as the result of a failure in your 'totally risk free, ultimately bestest method of energy ever!' because it's only a life. Simply - I've seen from many of your posts that your ideas are science and how things work are skewed. I highly doubt you have any such background in these areas and are instead going on propaganda rather than having knowledge in the area. And before you ask, yes I do know about both methods, how the work and the ideals behind them. Is Nuclear power an option - Yes. Is it the only option that will work, risk free and utterly perfect - No. You know nothing about this method if you think that is true. Are solar panels an option - Yes. Are they worthless - No. Again, you know nothing about this method if you decry their pointless-ness from the start. Also trust me; A powerplant costs more to run than a solar panel

I personally say DocSpartan for Arts Department. I mean check out the sweet signatures, DOC STYLE!

I wasn't suggesting it wasn't good nor insulting it I was merely offering suggestions to improve. Something as simple as sticking a music track on it would be enough to help the lack of audio problem. Is there no voices because you can't find voice actors or for some other reason? If it's the former I simple post on these forum might be enough to find people willing to help. Remember voices don't need to do done over Xbox Live (in fact, the really shouldn't) so if someone is willing to help then they simply have to record what you want and then send it to you separately allowing you to sync it up.

Hi, I had a watch, thought I would post a couple of comments. Just thought I would say from the start that I don't mean any of this offensively more just as constructive criticism. The first thing I noticed was the lack of... well anything. Apart from the same elite standing there for the most of the it there wasn't anything going on. No music, no voices (I'll mention this a bit more later.) From a watchers stand point a trailer to me is like the first few lines in a book; it needs to snag the watcher/reader and drag them in. It needs to give them a reason to watch it. Sadly I don't feel that watching this. It's just a moving picture with some writing. As for the writing I understand there might be some complications with voices etc but having the writing as all of the spoken parts of the story would be a bit dragging in my opinion. First off it does detract from the central image which is obviously an important part of a Machinima. It's akin to if you watch a film in another language and have to read the subtitles in that it can get a bit distracting. My advice: Either get some voice overlay for the machinima (and this would be my main point) or if you really can't work around this then aim for the silent film approach, i.e. music playing in the background and then the words flash up on the screen in a separate slide when the person speaks. The problem with this is it might not suit depending on the story/theme and is the clip is too wordy it just detracts from the whole thing. As for a trailer as a whole I never think it should be part of a story. It needs to be an overview, a look at what will happen and could happen, drag people in and make them want to watch it all. Otherwise it turns in a mini-episode/episode preview. Apart from that the actual camera work in general seems fine and I am interested to see more if it gains a bit more... pizazz but it just doesn't grab me at present. As I said I don't mean this offensively just offering my opinion.

No worries, glad it helped out.

I view it as another job. I don't mean this in a way to belittle anyone who serves but I do hold that view. Like Policemen, Fireman and others in civil service I respect what they do; they put themselves in a position that relates to helping others/placing themselves in difficult and/or dangerous situations. For people that act like the one your described they're just ignorant and shouldn't let it get you down. Regardless of how you view any actions the military is taking (I don't agree with certain ones the UK are involved in) I still hold respect for the military personal themselves; they're just doing their job and don't rightly choose where they're sent the majority of the time. The Director makes a good point as well, with your joined for your own reasons and that's that.

Damn you, I was thinking about posting something like this last night Therefore I have a pre-prepared list. At present I'm doing a lot of work so I tend to listen to fairly chilled music at present, things could to put in the background, for example:

I can't directly help you sadly however, if you truly want it that bad you could find the whole thing either one Amazon or Ebay Admittedly seems a bit steep to buy a new one especially with the prices and with the extremely low prices on Ebay it might be a bit dodgy but thought I would see if there were some options with a quick search. Hope that help. Edit: This one looks fairly cheapish although I can't vouch for it being legit or not obviously.

Right there... should be an ellipses or a full-stop. Not very observant now are we Insignia... Tut. Tut.

The story was good. The gameplay on the other is some of the most questionable material I have ever laid my hands on, especially when you decide to go back to it after playing the other two. The gameplay, IMO, definitely improved from ME1-2 and from 2-3; in fact I would pay for a whole new game to buy ME1 with ME3's actually combat gameplay. Seriously I spent a large amount of ME1 on the floor in combat purely, including been stuck to it about 3 times in a row when fighting the boss in Noveria because of a glitch.

Sadly you're unlikely to get an official response here - This is a community forum thus has no actual link to 343 itself. You're better off trying here - https://forums.halowaypoint.com// Saying that, from what I can see (see here the policy of 'teasing' you is simply their method of testing out what playlists have the best interest and thus which may be ideal for implementing permanently. Of the top of my head this may be because they don't want redundant playlists up (I'm not an expect but it might impact of the running ability of their other servers) or simply that they only want to put things up that people play for. While maybe not the ideal for everyone it makes sense in some ways. Other than that the first link will be your best bet for a better answer and alongside that just keep playing it when it comes up and hope for the best it will be soon.

Anyone think this is just a ploy to slowly but surely rid the staff team of all British presence... The Mods are corrupt!! On a more serious note best of luck with all your endeavours and, as Doc said, the only thing to do is get back up again.

What I really want to know is - What are you holding in your hands?

Just a quickie first; this isn't the Halo Dev's site. Instead we're a community forum. The actual forums are here - https://forums.halowaypoint.com// With that said I don't think you'll ever see any more Halo's on PC as it has kind of been confirmed that there won't be, at least any time in the foreseeable future. - http://www.vg247.com/2012/11/07/halo-4-pc-game-made-specifically-for-xbox-360-says-microsoft/

I'd be up for it; already on one server (well will be again when it updates) but happily spend time on more than one.

I concur with this if I can do the following: A Cheese Playlist... As everyone loves a bit of cheese
