  1. Competition is dependent on the player, not the game. To be frank, most of these uber "competative" players simply just want to see a payoff for competing in the form of a silly number. It is their own fault for allowing such meaningless trinkets of praise, change their own competative nature. Not to mentuon that once you get older, you tend to look back and see the game for what is, and laugh about how so much of your life was consumed...then you start to think about how it meant nothing overall and such.
  2. The man has a point. You see Forge maps on more rotation than proper DLC or stock maps. Irritating to say the least.
  3. Certain Affinity only worked on the multiplayer maps, it was Saber Interactive that did the campaign makeover, which in my opinion, the map work done is far superior in quality to what Certain Affinity produces. Im not trying to bash them or anything, but a lot of their maps and work looks like all the same stuff to me. There is hardly any true variety in their texture and shader work, and their layouts leave much to be desired.
  4. I didnt mean toncome offbqngry, and certaintly not at you. Its just frustrating to see the state of the genre as it is. Anymore, the wntire fps and gaming genre as a whole has become so stale and mundain, like the movie industry. Im tired of prequesl, sequels, knockoffs and remakes. I want new exciting game elements to look forward to.
  5. Your kidding right? Nintendo has nothing going for it besides Mario and their crappy exclusives. Mario anything stopped being fun after I hit age 14, which was a looooong time ago. While yes any developer could handle the remakes for Halo, not everyone can work with the engine, or provide an engine close enough to Blam! to remaster it properly. And still, it would require the oversight of 343i to handle issues, compatibility problems, art direction, etc... My point is, do we want to keep living in the past, or give 343i and Halo in general, a fighting chance going forward?
  6. CEA was to mark the birth of the Halo franchise. Following it up with an Anniversary edition of every Halo, would be a round and round circle of wasted devwlopment time. Do we really need to bring new life into past Halo titles? And whats next? Every ten years remaster and re-release a previous Halo? Thanks but no thanks, I like my Halo experience unaltered and original. Not a development nightmare that rapes my Halo experience by ******** on it. CEA sucked and did nothing to help the franchise. The game was already playable, and had no Live multiplayer anyway outside PC. All it did was showcase what was possible now compared to the former, and to mark a historic moment in the FPS genre.
  7. I nominate The Director. His "For the Sheeple, by the Sheeple" platform speaks to me. A vote for The Director, is a vote for humanity!
  8. Fae, your my new favorie! Down with the Derpin!

  9. Applying a weapon skin to a pickup weapon should in theory be easy to do. It should simply consist of a script, checking the weapon state on pickup, checking the player at the same time, and calling for the skinned version of that weapons model to be displayed. Again in theory, it sounds easy, but scripting is my least favorite area of the Halo engine.
  10. Hear-yee Hear-yee Hence forth from this day Delpen9 shall be known as Derpin7! So be it, etc hence wit etc...

      I'm in agreement with this :D

  11. Did you know that Halo 4 had a second Forerunner grenade (fourth selectable), but was cut, but still has effect tags remaining? Did you know that Promethian Vision, was supposed to be in Halo 2 in the form of X-Ray vision, but was cut. The strings for the pickup are still coded in the game but lack actual assets to use it.
  12. My wish is that people making wishes, actually wish for something possible within engine limitations, and things that actually make sense. Seriously.... I think my IQ just went down 300 points after reading half of this ****. Thanks guys!
  13. Should we lock topics over a year old?
  14. As the title of the site states, this is a Community Forum not their official site. You want Halowaypoint to report issues.
  15. Really? Despite the fact the current version of Live doesnt support Legacy? Curious, how would you get that working without having to completely go through the source and rewrote the network model? It's a troublesome task, and beyond that, there are a myriad of engine side issues that could pop up.
  16. Maps are not an option. Actually all maps come up and are playable. As your post is not clear, are the maps not available for re-download or for usage? You kind of need to include and make that clear. And by the way, a classy avatar of middle fingers is not the best way to go around trying to get what you want. Typical ******* ****** bag Halo gamer. Good luck gimp.
  17. Yeah just we need, another of 1,000 H2A posts. Seriously, I see your a member of the not-new-variety. Try using the search button. These threads are becoming more useless than 3/4 of Azaxx's shouts.
  18. Sorry to say but it isnt going to happen. It would take upwards of 6 or more years to individually redo each title and include extras, makeovers etc... There is already another thread on this. Surfice to say, the collection would simply be every title playable on Xbox One in one bundle, using emulation so the discs will play on it. The only multiplayer that will be available that is likely, is Halo 4, Reach and Halo 3. But that being said, it is plausable to conclude that all multiplayer before Reach may be coming down soon.
  19. Where's my ****** at?!? Come out of hiding Ruby Princess!!!

  20. I knew it! Total Mayh3m is a fellow 'Once Upon A Time" fan!!! German's totally rule! lmao
  21. Sweet! Now I can finally replace my computer with a console that can do everything....oh wait. Its still a ****ty console with a poor library. My bad...
  22. Correct. All weapons including turrets will register the final kill shot as a headshot. The difference is, the medal system only awards a medal to precision type weapons. In Halo 2, you could see this in the post carnage report. As for damage, the only time a head hitbox adds a multiplyer is when the shields are down. When shielded, the damage is constant. Iirc, this is where the damage upper and lower bounds comes into play. But strictly speaking I do believe that players with a high akill of accuracy should be able to do more damage with consintant headshots regardless of shields.
  23. Iirc dedicated or peer host connection, the Live service is orchestrated to utilize bandwidth from players with good connections, to assist with those who do not. There is a whitepaper on it somewhere, I just cant seem to locate it right now. Dedicated servers yes are superior, but it also depends on what region or regions they intend to impliment them. Similar to the Azure service, the dedicated servers will likely be scattered around various datacenters and not located in one specific "epicenter" so to speak.
  24. Correct. Using a fresh GT is the only way, outside someone from MS officially fullfilling such a reset request, in which I cannot say it has ever been done, or requested at all.
