  1. This could only be good news. Because as watching the Star wars prequel trilogy has shown, making things up as you go along isn't a good thing. Hence why Darth Maul, the best new character in the prequels was killed off because Lucas didn't have a plan for him, only to realise he could use someone like that in episode 2 so he created the character of Dooku. So he created a whole new character that gets killed off in the next film when he could have used the same character who has some serious beef against Obi wan and more connection to the plot.
  2. You'd be surprised how many people are up in arms about it. So apparently a significant amount of people.
  3. Its that time of the week again everyone. First article: Call of Duty Black Ops 3 last gen features missing. It has recently come to light that several features of Black Ops 3, including the campaign mode are not being included in the last gen version of Black Ops 3. These features are. The Campaign mode. The Paint Shop, and esports tools. Activision made an announcement about this, stating that the reason for not including the campaign was so it could. "harness the full potential" of PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC" As such, the game's campaign isn't making the cut on last-gen systems. They also said. "The ambitious scope of the 1-4 player co-op campaign design of the PS4, Xbox One, and PC versions could not be faithfully recreated on old generation hardware," Finally, Activision announced today that Black Ops III for PS3/Xbox 360 won't be full-price game, as it will sell for $50 instead of $60. Now to soften the blow the company also said that the last gen versions will come with a free copy of the original Black Ops. Article two: Star Wars Battlefront Beta Dates Revealed. Hm, EA really kept us waiting for those beta release dates huh? Electronic Arts has finally announced the release dates of the Star wars Battlefront beta. Which is on a side note, open to everyone. The beta will begin on all systems, Ps4, Xb1 and Pc on October 8th till October 12th.The beta will let players try out the 40-player Walker Assault mode, a Survival mission, and the new Drop Zone gametype. Though sadly not stats or rankings will carry over to the final game. Third article: Phil Spencer elaborates on the reason for not including splitscreen in Halo 5 Halo 5 Guardians has broken away from one of the Halo's series traditions. The tradition being, splitscreen and Halo 5 Guardians is not coming with splitscreen for campaign or multiplayer. So Phil Spencer decided to elaborate more on the extremely controversial decision. He recently told Gamespot in a interview that. " The vast majority" of people, at least those whose consoles are connected to Xbox Live, are playing co-op across Xbox Live, not locally. "In the end, the teams make decisions based on the bar that they want to hit for complexity of what they're going to run on a single box," he said. "We see the robustness of what Xbox Live is today and where people are playing across Xbox Live--you at your house, me at our house. We know that's the vast majority of the co-op play. With Halo 5, the team really wanted to focus on making that experience great, both visually on the screen that you're looking at, and all the systems in place." Spencer stated. He later said that he loved splitscreen and it was "it was kind of how multiplayer in Halo was born." But just like war, times have changed. "I think the team made a trade-off based on what they see happening in the market today and what they wanted to do with their game," Spencer explained. "I love the nostalgia of the couch co-op of what Halo did in the past, but I also know in the realities of the day with people's busy lives, it's not as easy to get everybody in the same physical place. It's one of the advantages that Xbox Live obviously offers." And that concluded the interview and it also concludes this article. Until next time folks.

  4. ^ This cinematic is presumably the first mission you play as Chief in. So I presume this is before Chief goes AWOL and Blue Team finds something in this ship that makes them go AWOL.
  5. ^ Pulling a Grunt off a ghost? Smashing through rocks? Shooting one handed while avoiding a sword swing at the same time? Wolno, that isn't possible. The Osiris stuff was just over the top and their performance is something I think Spartan II's could get away with. But Spartan IV's? Eh I doubt it. Its not like Osiris is made up entirely of battle hardened combat vets that have been fighting since Harvest or before like Blue Team.
  6. Oh my, that was really, emotional. That scene with Ben was just.... just, wow. It was completely unexpected and so well done, the voice acting was just superb I could really feel Ben's pain. Well done 343.
  7. I actually enjoyed it much more than the Osiris thing. Mainly because it made sense, it wasn't dumb or over the top either and that was fine. I also found it more entertaining and not just because watching the Osiris cinematic makes me want to throw up. It was because it showed the team interacting with each other realistically and how actual soldiers would. Spartan IV's for me are too unprofessional and rash and that really gets under my skin.
  8. ^ If I remember correctly Ash got an Ash emblem added here because it was her Mom wish. So its entirely possible.
  9. What is a day in the life of a Moderator for 343 community forum like?
  10. If you all remember a Fireteam Osiris opening cinematic came out a few weeks back..... Now the Blue Team cinematic has been revealed, showing Blue Team kicking some serious Storm Covie butt without even really trying! So go ahead and watch it in all its awesomeness. https://youtu.be/z0bYEToC0zA
  11. ^ Um, ever played Metal Gear Solid? Because if you have then you'll get the reference, if not then.... Well you don't get and you think I'm an idiot or something.
  12. I can think of one they kept, how about fair starts? Red and Blue teams? The Assault rifle? Those are stuff I can think of off the top of my head by 343 have hardly destroy every tradition ^
  13. This thread needs to be removed from the recent posts list. http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/41549-hunt-the-truth-season-2-discussion/?view=getnewpost Obviously because this thread is out to discus recent content in the Halo universe, it should be off the list to prevent people being spoiled unless they click on the thread.
  14. Since this is the discussion thread spoilers should be expected.... Anyway now for my thoughts..... wut. So Fero screwed over Ben and now Petra is captured leaving the only loose end to be Fero, I mean the only way it can go from here is if Fero defects so that's probably what is going to happen later one in the series. So, so far this series is not living up to by expectations, things are bleaker than I thought ( and that's not a negative thing ) I just expected the series to be about Petra, but it wasn't.
  15. Um it does not matter what you think of Halo 5 because clearly you are letting your person opinion effect your judgement. Halo 5 is still a game/a product. No matter how bad you think it is, you cant change these types of facts. Besides the game has yet to come out anyway!
  16. Halo 3 did. You see I was decided if to get a Ps3 or an 360. I'd had a Ps2 before so I suppose I was going more than way at this time. So one day I head to my friends and find not only does he have a 360, he also has Halo 3. So I play Halo 3 and really enjoy it and so when it comes to the time to buy a new console, I choose an Xbox because Halo 3 was awesome. I was only 7 years old at that point and that probably wasn't good decision making back then. But looking back all these years later I stand by my decision. 1 Because I found this community. 2 Because for my 10th birthday somebody brought me Kotor 1 and got me into the rpg genre and Star wars. ( And the Ps3 cant emulate that ) 3 Because Halo Reach custom games are some of my most fond gaming memories, ever, of all time.
