I for one am in love with the boltshot, light rifle and carbine. For long range vehicle maps, I use the light rifle and plasma pistol. For smaller maps like haven or adrift, I whip out my trusty carbine and boltshot. Seriously, the light rifle is easily the best gun for long range since in scope, it's only 4 shots in the head to kill. And I love the fast firing of the carbine. I'm constantly winning battles against BRs and DMRs just because I can place each shot and screw up their aiming so much. And the boltshot? Don't even get me started. I get 4-10 kills on average with that gun per game. It's such a good gun. And even if you only take their shields down just shoot them in the head.The weapons are probably my favorite thing about Halo 4 so far.~U_K~

Do you have a silver account yet? You should add me so we can at least be friends. I also have 2 14 day gold trials. ~U_K~

So two leaked pictures of the female turian have been released. She looks really good.To find her, just search female turian omega.~U_K~

Uhhh, make a hat? Get 1 more rec, and craft a hat. It will be untradable, but if you get a hat that you don't care about, just recraft it with another hat. I did it to get the flamenco, and now the wraith wrap.~U_K~

Already planned out my armor for Halo 4.Here's what I'm planning.Also, don't know if these are the actually secondary colors, but somebody colored it for me.~U_K~

You can still walk the dinosaur. On a more serious note, even though I've barely played it, it's a pretty great game so far in graphics and gameplay. ~U_K~

So I just got ridiculously lucky with my crafting.I had bought 2 eerie keys and opened 2 crates. I got a spooky ghost in one of them, and the new voodoo juju in the other. I was very quickly able to trade the juju for a wraith wrap, AKA my new favorite pyro hat. Now, I also have a flamboyent flamenco that was my hat for the pyro, but it was untradable because of a few foolish things I did with crafting when I was a new player (I crafted achievement items). Anyway, since I found my new favorite pyro hat, the the flamenco is no longer needed. Luckily, I got a hat drop of a hat I already had. So I recraft that with my flamenco and what do I get out of it?A wraith wrap. Talk about luck. I now have two wraith wraps, on untradable and one of the haunted quality. Probably gonna be trading the haunted one for the coffin cap. Then with my last breath I can be grim reaper pyro.Also, just missing the zombie skins for the medic, heavy, and soldier. And I have waaaaay too many exorcism spells.~U_K~

343 has released an interactive guide on their site which shows all the armor sets (except for the raider helmet) among other things.Also, you don't have to read all the descriptions, but I recommend looking at the description for the FOTUS armor.~U_K~

I know it annoyed some people, but I think it's perfectly fine. You can see that he was hesitant. He probably didn't know how much he was allowed to reveal to them about the Spartan program, so probably didn't want to call himself "Spartan 117", and he definitely wasn't going to let them call him John.~U_K~

I misread it near the beginning and thought you were being interviewed for a position at starbucks. Needless to say I was very confused why Starbucks had so much security. Congrats though! Wish you the best! ~U_K~

I know I was already talking to you and had already said minecraft was better on the pc in almost every way, but now that you mention split screen... My brother and I always play minecraft together. It's so much fun playing on the same console. It gets really fun when my brother invites two of his friends over and we screw around with everybody in the same room. So while minecraft is better in almost every way on the pc, it does not have the splitscreen factor like the 360 does. ~U_K~

This is literally the best news I have heard all month. You know my answer Haz. ARBY AND I AWAIT YOUR PRESENCE. ~U_K~

First off, just letting you know Friday funny is no more. It wasn't the popular and I'm not on here enough to do it right. Anyway, on to the subject at hand. Looper is an amazing movie. One of my favorites now. Everything from the plot to the acting is really cool, and the trailer didn't even spoil the movie. Seriously, if you haven't seen the movie yet and are age appropriate (2 topless girls for a short time and 2 implied sexual scenes) go see it. Now. ~U_K~

You go through so many names so I'll just call you Arby.Happy birthday to my best friend on this website! Here's to many more!~U_K~

Handsome Jack for sure. The hardest part would be the mask, and I've seen some nice instructions of how to build good looking 3D paper masks for Jack. Also, if you do decide on Handsome Jack, buy a blue stuffed animal horse and put sparkles on it. You can be accompanied by Butt Stallion. ~U_K~

We now have pictures of all the classes. Not included is the turian infiltrator and soldier, and I'm not sure if the turian engineer is a mistake, or that it's actually an engineer instead of a vanguard.~U_K~

Aaaand new multiplayer DLC called retaliation. If you want to look into it, go onto Bioware's blog. To sum it up: New collector faction, new turian soldier and infiltrator (with a sweet jetpack), based on the trailer it seems we might be able to change powers for some classes (we saw what seemed to be a krogan vanguard use pull and/or shockwave and more), 3 new collector weapons, (technically 2 since the assault rifle is already in the game, but the submachine gun and sniper are new) and there's a new challenge system. Example: Get 140000 points accumulated with the typhoon and get 10 challenge points. Use challenge points to buy banners and titles for other players to see in lobbies (think call of duty).Also, stuff added in the patch today as well. if 3/4 players vote to start, the match will start in 20 seconds. Also, when you promote a character, their name and appearance are not reset, and their 1 point is not assigned.I am super excited for this. October 9th cannot come soon enough. Praetorians are not going to be fun.~U_K~

I love it as well. Having a bard AND getting Aela to live in my home in addition to my wife? Yes please.All the new misc quests you get is pretty cool too.~U_K~

Not really when you think about it. Remember, in Halo 4 we get loadouts. This means that everyone can spawn with EMP grenades and plasma pistols. It is still definitely a top tier vehicle though.~U_K~

Seriously, it was acceptable last time, but this time it was the most recent post. Do you even read the topic before posting?~U_K~

New trailer for the 1 map that is a remake and the new vehicle that will be on that map. Just like I was talking about last time. I don't think I need spoilers for it, but if you want to see 3 sweet gifs of it, just click here.Getting into the vehicleBlowin' stuff upI will be doing this all the time~U_K~

Alright, we've seen the one map that they're remaking for Halo 4. If you want it to be a surprise, don't click. Also, we've seen gameplay of a new vehicle on that same map. Again, don't click if you like surprises. ~U_K~

Don't know if the file size is too big so here's a link. The Witchking and fellbeast look amazing and I will definitely be getting them. The balrog is great, but something is wrong with it's face. The eyes are too close to the mouth and it has no nostrils. It just doesn't look right to me. Also, just got a job at McDonalds. I know it's just McDonalds, but at least I finally got a job (that isn't chicken catching). ~U_K~
