Akuna Toa of Sonics Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Has anyone played the Forge Test yet? I know a remake of Lockout and Relay are in the rotation, but what about the other maps? Quote Does anyone want to play the Master Chief Collection with me? I'm trying to get a team going for ranked. PM for GT.
Makaru Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 The two maps I played, Despair and Scythe, were way too small for the quick-paced Halo 4 matchmaking, in my opinion. Also I died a lot, so maybe I'm just whining. Quote Spoiler Alert
Axilus Prime Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 New Spartan Ops? I need to find a way to play the old ones...can you invite people on your friends list into a lobby for it like you can for Co-op Campaign? I personally love the map Adrift. No camping, no sniping, just good old epic combat. That, and I have better performance there than in any other map. Quote
Bundalings Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Yes, you can party up with your friends or go solo for Spartan Ops. I'm only two chapters into episode 5. I need to pick up the pace. Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive.
Axilus Prime Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 I won the first 3 missions of Chapter 1 on Heroic, then I realized it was really no fun at all without friends helping. But now I started Legendary solo and got through Level 1 and half of Level 2. Also won Levels 1 and 2, along with half of 3, on Legendary co-op at an arcade, since I had to return my rental of Halo 4 and can't rent it again right away. So next time I do Spartan Ops, I'll probably set it to Legendary while playing with a friend. Quote
The Lord Of Wednesday Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Axilus, what is your GT? Quote Divinator of Dreams.This Is Proud Stigma.
Axilus Prime Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 My GT is Axilus Prime. How shocking. XD Note that nothing I do at the arcade is saved to my profile, only when I rent the game and play it at home do I get that benefit. The same goes for multiplayer anything, and Spartan Ops. So if you check my profile, you will only find what I did at home. Yes, my War Games record is abysmal. That's why I decided to do Legendary in the first place. Thankfully, it turned out to be really fun the times I played it. Quote
Elgra Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 So, I havn't played in about two weeks (blackops 2 zombies, cant help it), and I was wondering if I've missed anything new in the game. Quote
Ehksidian Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Forge Test playlist, new spartan ops missions that do require a download...and that's about it.Still glad that there are now forge maps, even if they are kinda small... bah I want Asphalt back in BTB. That'd be amazing in 4. especiall since they kinda fixed the warping wraith problem.But because of that fix, Jumprope isn't nearly as fun as it is in Reach, or Speed Halo. Man I love Speed Halo.

Axilus Prime Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Anyone here want to share GT's and form a party sometime? We could do some War Games or Spartan Ops. Also, can you form a party and play Custom War Games or Co-op Campaign when some party members don't have Gold? (Don't worry, I have it, I'm just wondering.) Quote

Axilus Prime Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Added you. Please excuse my low stats, I can only play the game on rental until I can buy it, and I've only been able to rent it once. (Aside from the arcade visits, but none of that will save to my XBL profile.) Cool armor, though. Quote
Elgra Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I would get on tomorrow...but black ops 2 dlc comes out.............with a new map and game mode for zombies............maybe this weekend though. Quote
Axilus Prime Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Heh, wouldn't be able to play tomorrow anyway. I can only play on weekends. If I can rent it this weekend, then I guess I can participate in my own idea then. XD So what's your GT? Quote
Ehksidian Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 So.Has anyone heard about the competitive playlist and ranking system they're going to set up?I'm actually glad they're doing it, despite the fact I'm not a competitive player.It's going to have pre-set loadouts, no call-in ordanance, and other changes.This definately will bring some life back into Halo 4, seeing as nearly everyone who has heard about it and commented on it on the unmentionable website agrees with the idea. What do you guys think? Quote Steam name: Ehksidian
Elgra Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Sounds fine with me. I'll play on the weekend probably. Quote

Yeah, if they keep certain weapons, I vote Suppressor, BR, Ar, and Carbine for primaries, and only a magnum for secondaries.And only frag grenades, despite the fact I love plasmas... they're OP in loadouts. Same with the plasma pistol. There won't be any support packages or such, hopefully. Oh, and betrayals will be on. Kinda happy and sad about that. I really don't want people betraying me because I have an Incineration cannon or something. That'd be annoying. Quote Steam name: Ehksidian
Elgra Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I know what I'm doing then if I see you with an incineration cannon Quote
thelonewander Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 X, I'll try to save you from Ptolemy, but no promises Quote War...war never changes.We crawl, on our knees for you,under, a sky no longer blue, we sweat, all day long for you.But we sow, seeds to see us though,cause sometimes dreams just don't come true, we wait, to reap what we are due.-Rise Against, Re-Education (through Labor)
Axilus Prime Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Heheh. I love Incineration Cannons. But the Hardlight Shield can actually survive them head-on! X, lonewander, Ptolemy, I sent you all friend requests. Anyway, I'm glad some life will be returned to the game! I don't mind the loadouts and ordnance at all, but if you guys want to go competitive and I can join, I'm in. Quote
Elgra Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I wouldn't say it's lost life, we just havnt been active lately:PI blame school and other videogames:P Quote
Ehksidian Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I mean it isn't the fact that we arn't playing it as much, lots of people stopped playing it because of things like personal ordanance, etc.Eh. I just want to have normal infection in Halo 4 already and fixed grifball. Because grifball in reach was so much fun... but now no boom. and no new rounds. kinda annoying. Hopefully 343 fixes it when they put the playlist up. Quote Steam name: Ehksidian
Elgra Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) True that. I'll be playing a ton of zombies until Friday, and my bro won't be around then to bother us. So I say we have a game night then.Also, I got into Diablo 3 :PAnd I'm downloading the Crysis 3 beta Edited January 30, 2013 by Ptolemy Quote
thelonewander Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 So, we have a confirmed game night Friday? must remember to get on then. So, has anyone played the Spartan Ops this week?

Axilus Prime Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I have not, on account of the fact that I can only play on weekends and by renting the game. And I hope to God that my report card coming out today does not jeopardize, restrict, or destroy my gaming capabilities... So if I can play SpOps with you guys, I will. X, you don't like Flood? Quote
Ehksidian Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 X, you don't like Flood?I love Flood, it's the main thing I play. But ofr custom games sake I want plain infection. Only having a sword is kinda annoying and makes certain games... impossible to do (Like cops and Robbers).And if we're having a gamenight friday, I'm in. I'll try to get on if other games don't bother me *cough minecraft and spiral knights cough* Quote Steam name: Ehksidian
Elgra Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Yeah, I'll have to try really hard to not get distracted with the crysis 3 beta :PIf you guys have Xbox live I'd recommend it, since its the open beta. Quote
Axilus Prime Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 When I play too many different games in the same month I mix up the controls too frequently. I don't think I'll be doing Crysis 3 for that reason. But anyway, as of yet my grades have not canceled my ability to participate in a game night. So there's that little update.... Quote
Ehksidian Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Good.Oh, and if they add a new ranking system, I wonder what will happen to the old server? Quote Steam name: Ehksidian
Axilus Prime Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Well, due to loadouts, armor, and stuff I think there would be two rank systems used simultaneously. The SR system for unlocking the previously mentioned stuff, and a skill rank for how well a player performs. So, what would we be doing on a Game Night? War Games? A co-op Campaign just for random fun? (And possibly teamkilling each other 4-6 times in that cryo tube room for no reason but silliness before actually starting to make sense) SpOps? Or some combination of those things? Quote
thelonewander Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Most likely War games, maybe Matchmaking if the others are up to it, then some SpOps, for sure. we must plat SpOps for this one, we must Quote War...war never changes.We crawl, on our knees for you,under, a sky no longer blue, we sweat, all day long for you.But we sow, seeds to see us though,cause sometimes dreams just don't come true, we wait, to reap what we are due.-Rise Against, Re-Education (through Labor)
The Lord Of Wednesday Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Hey guys, sorry I have not been on recently, but I'll join if there is room. Quote Divinator of Dreams.This Is Proud Stigma.
Axilus Prime Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Matchmaking could unfortunately stick us with some ten year olds, but I'm in if you guys are. What gametype do you all have in mind Hey, Oneiromancer, I gave you my GT but you didn't send a request. What's yours? There's definitely room in War Games, in SpOps we'd have to divide into groups since the max is 4 players. Quote
Elgra Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 We also do custom games or "boosting" regicide games.Boosting meaning just is if we have enough people and we come up with silly ideas such as conga line assassinating Quote
Axilus Prime Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Heh. That does remind me of something. On Regicide, I became King right off the bat, but lost my title. Immediately seeking to regain it I went off to kill the new King. Then I ran into a player with similar ideas and assassinated him. But then I found out a guy was waiting behind me for the assassination to end so he could assassinate me! It was so hilarious that I wasn't even mad about it. Quote
The Lord Of Wednesday Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Sorry about that Axilus, I just added you. Also, to all who are interested, I am online right now if anyone wants to play on live. Just invite me to the party regardless of the game I am playing and we can go from there. Quote Divinator of Dreams.This Is Proud Stigma.
Axilus Prime Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 The night is planned for the weekend. But at the time I am posting this, it's 9:13 AM on a Thursday. So timezones and stuff. How do we clear that up? Quote
