Seriously I have never liked the SMG, why is it always so bad. (ODST SMG aside, I think they got around to fixing a lot of small gun nitpicks in that) I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? #654: Braixen |
I like the SMG but mainly because I'm a terrible shot, which is why the switch to Spraylo in the second game suited me. I could never understand why people thought the BR was so good, I could never hit shit with it.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
Got that British crooked eye~
I bet you got outshot by people with BRs a lot in 2/3. I remember the SMG being decent with a good dual-wield combo every now and again but it took forever to down someones shields and kill them with it. (lol Spraylo) What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? #654: Braixen |
Yeah, but I play most of my Halo late at night and drunk. The less accuracy involved in killing people the happier I am. That's why I'm generally so keen to drive the Hogs and pleased there are rewards for doing so in the new game, I can manage that drunk, in fact I'm a pretty good drunk driver (Years of practice).
How ya doing, buddy? |
The Warthog does seem to be pretty drunk-proof, it's controls have a good flow to them that I could see being pretty conducive to driving drunk.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
The only thing that gets me about 'hogs is after a while of not playing I forget which bumper is the RIIIIIIIIIDGE RACER powerslide button and I always end up jumping out and getting us killed on the first attempt.

That's why I always test the brakes and horn before setting off. Mirror, signal, manouver and all that.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
lol
As an aside, the Limited Edition guide for this just popped up as an Amazon recommendation to me. There's no cover or description provided, but it's mainly interesting because the LE guide is listed at 448 pages, and the regular guide at 352 pages. Wonder what the heck would be in the extra 100 pages, I'm guessing artbook maybe? I can't think of any type of regular "extra" content that they could do that would even approach 100 pages. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Maybe they'll include some sort of "History of Halo" deal where they go over the entire series, backgrounds, guns, tech, etc?

There's already a Halo Encyclopedia out though. That would seem like too much effort for an extra 100 pages on a guide, but not enough to be completely comprehensive either (the Encyclopedia's like 300 pages). I'm guessing artbook, but I guess we'll see. I'll keep an eye on the Amazon listing.

Oh is there? I had no idea (or maybe you mentioned it to me and I forgot).

Came out like a year or so ago, I hadn't gotten around to picking it up or anything.
FELIPE NO |
No additional details on the LE, but it showed up in my Gold Box which brought it down to $21.94 shipped (I have Prime), so that shit is bought.
Also game-related, something that they talked about that I forgot to mention was that when you're playing co-op, the game scales difficulty now based on the number of players. So we can (apparently) forget Legendary being pretty easy with 4 people. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
So now there'll be eight scarabs at once? Awesome, that's going to make team kills that much funnier, although on the plus side anyone who doesn't mind hanging back as a re-spawn point will become a valuable team mate.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Scarabs on Scarabs awwww shit

Didn't update last week, since there wasn't anything super relevant to anyone here on the Bungie Weekly Update. Next week is Bungie Day (7/7), so we'll probably get something there at the very least. For those not familiar, the last few years they've usually done some sort of free gamer pics and themes, as well as some sort of information reveal, behind the scenes look at something, etc.
Also still no details at all yet that I can find, but Amazon does now have a covershot of the LE guide: This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
That LE covershot looks pretty ace. Might have to take a look on the UK Amazon site see if they have any details, or if I can at least put my name down for them as I might be tempted to pick this one up.
Quick edit: Seems I can pre-order it already, so I'm just going to say fuck it and do that. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
I watched Halo Legends for the first time the other day and I really hope the space battles in Reach are just like the space battle in the CGI one.

OP updated, lots of info in today's update!
-Added both versions of the Strategy guide to the first section along with prices and (cheaper) Amazon links. Still no word on what's special about the Limited Edition one yet. -Bungie has said that Legendary difficulty in Campaign will have "more than a few Elites armed with Active Camo and Sniper Rifles." -You guys were right, Visor Colors! -Launch details for the "regular" and Arena Playlists!
-Another awesome change from the Beta; if your mic is not plugged in, or you are in a Party/Private chat, the game places you in the "Quiet" Chattiness category. This is to try to avoid problems like in most games where most of the people you are matched with have no mics or are in chats, or alternatively if your settings are also set to Quiet just so you don't have to hear random retards yelling. -HOLY SHIT 120 MEDALS WHAT -Campaign: Names have now been assigned to NPC Marines, Troopers, and ODST's in the game, so now you can see their name, rank, and service tag in-game so as to encourage keeping them alive (presumably). Additionally, confirmation to definitely check back next week for Bungie Day (the 7th). Also as a related aside, Halo 3 Matchmaking will be winding down with the release of Reach:

I haven't posted here or even been on Live much because I mostly quit games, but that all changes come September.
FELIPE NO |
Or maybe because PC gaming is dead am i rite?
I also haven't been on Live at all, although that's going to change tomorrow with Crackdown. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
For those here that know him, the Son of Urk arrived this morning. I shot him a message on Facebook asking if the child came forth fully bearded, regardless of gender.
I do not expect a response. But congrats to him! How ya doing, buddy? |
I pre-ordered my copy of Reach today. It's just the basic one, I have enough tat lying about my house without adding more stuff. I've ordered mine from Amazon, £38 and £2 for release-day delivery (GAME wanted £40 plus a fiver for release day, fuck you GAME~). I also booked a week off work...

Awesome, seems like a bunch of people are taking that week off, should be no shortage of dudes on.
