D-38 Boss

Final level. It felt like every knight had a Binary rifle or incineration cannon.

"Wait, what?" Before Ty knew it he was sprinting down a long hallway, dodging simulated plasma bolts and firing his pistol. He vaulted over a low wall and started up a stair case. A Jackal target popped directly in front of him. He opted for a sharp kick to the skull and moved on. He pulled himself over a large fence and crouched behind a sandbag wall for a second to catch his breath. "a minute and 20 seconds."he huffed. "Gotta pick it up."

O_o How is that fun?

Welcome! I'd like to state, however, that this isn't the official 343 forums. But feel free to stick around, make some friends and Talk about Halo 'n' such!

((Mumble grumble...)) Ty walked into the Obstacle course's ready room. "Thanks for waiting Bauer." He grumbled "You want to go first?"

I'm hoping for a broader range of weapons this time. and more unique weapons, like Abe Lincoln's repeater rifle.

"Wit? I'm dumb as a rock. And I have about a day's worth of experience. But i see where your going with this. Let's go Bauer." Ty Grabbed a few more rounds for his Pistol. If he was going to stand a chance, he'd need to use his best skill.

The Arbiter i wouldn't mind seeing again. Not the flood though. The Prometheans have replaced the flood as the new Galactic Threat. To bring the flood back would be redundant.

"Hmm... I'm game. wanna see how you've improved since you were an ODST? Ya know, compare yourself to one?"

Well. yes, it was sad. Which is a minority in Gaming (Thankfully, i think. I like happy endings) but always a solid plot device. I enjoy that games have gone more in depth with writing, Ditching the usual "Kill the bad guy, save the world, Get the Girl/guy." Ending. But i'm hoping this doesn't become a trend, Like loadouts have. but loadout can be done well and add to a game. If Unhappy endings become the norm, I'm not gonna enjoy gaming as much.

Why is this a problem? if they wanna hand out XP for playing Spartan Ops (Which I enjoy more than MP sometimes) I'm not gonna complain. I very rarely run into AFK's and those that i do run into come back and end with a decent chunk of the kills.

How precisely is it unacceptable? The point was it was a solo project, and they didn't have experience running a self crafted game's MP after initial release. they did a good enough job with it, they don't need people like you telling them that they weren't as good as Bungie. Bungie dropped the IP. Get over it. Halo 2 and 3 lasted years because there wasn't exactly much else going on in gaming. Frank 'O Connor made a very clear statement. 343 knows they messed some things up, they're trying to fix it and they're keeping their mistakes in mind for 5. Halo isn't dying because the minority doesn't like the game.

Ty picked up the suppressor. "Uh... where's the trigger on this thing? Oh wait, here it is...." He shouldered the rifle and fired until the gun was empty. The target showed a single mark. "Uh... I got one.... maybe Long rifles aren't my thing, I'm good with a pistol. But any other gun I'm just bad with... that's why i use a shotgun. Always was decent with a SAW though..." Ty trailed off to mumbling. He reloaded his AR and pointed downrange. Then he stopped. "Wait a minute..." Ty picked up one of the knives Bauer had used and started working. after a few minutes, he had managed to whittle the front of the AR to have a small point. "Lets try this." He aimed the AR and fired. 28/32 hits "Why wouldn't they just make Iron sights for these?"

Ty just shook for a while before he composed himself. "Why is everyone pointing guns at me today? was it something I said?" He joked. Ty walked over to the Quartermaster to retrieve an AR and rounds for his Pistol. He walked up to the shooting lane, pulled up an Elite target, and fired his AR in bursts until it was empty. He hit the switch to pull his target closer. "Damn..." Only 6 hits out of 32 rounds. Hardly professional. He put down the AR and drew his Automag. He moved the target back, brought up a new target and fired his pistol until it was empty. Ty knew what the result was, but he still wanted to see it. 10/10. one center mass, the rest forming a crude smiley face on the target. "Heh heh. hey! Bauer! look what I did."

"Nice... Although i don't see what good it would do to throw a knife." Ty said, leaning against the wall behind Bauer. "Better to keep it, that way you still have a weapon."

HA! jokes on you! I don't work.....

Eh. What the crap. why not? You have seen my glory. and my Neck beard.

I like it for the custom skins. And the Mods. Pokemod is teh lolz.

Ty walked into his bunk room. He left the situation with Anton to the professionals. Not much an ODST can do for an infected A.I. His situation with Cortez was hanging on his mind. Cortez didn't just hate him, He wanted him dead. "Hopefully he'll get what's coming to him, and that'll be the last i hear of it." He said to himself. then he sighed. "Yeah, and maybe The covenant will just leave, and open a flower shop somewhere." He flopped down on his bunk, and lit his last cigar. He'd need to buy more. "Well. At least I'm not gonna die today... As far as i know..." He thought. "Great outlook on life. 'Oh great! im still alive!' What a pathetic existence." "Eh, might as well do something." He pulled himself up and walked of to the practice range.

Didn't either, liked Buck though

D38. Big surprise...

Well welcome. Just a note this is a fan forum, not the official 343 forums. But you make a solid point, Halo will be different without Cortana.

So it's basically a CQB gametype? I could get behind that.
