THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN
Anybody wanna help me repurpose some shitty maps for Infection tomorrow?
>>140350663
No.
>>140350687
Well that's pretty rude
>>140350750
Why not repurpose some good maps?
Also, I'm busy tomorrow.
>>140350863
Well I was hoping to repurpose them to be, well, good.
>>140350975
>Halo 5 maps
>good
Impossible. Can't be done.
>>140351117
More along the lines of forge maps, the 343 suck donkey dick
>>140351198
It ain't happening, son. Once it reaches an acceptable level of quality, the game will crash and corrupt your data.
>>140351325
Just gotta stay the tiniest bit under the threshold, then.
>>140350663
I'm still working on changing some of my old ones over to be useful for normal infection

Literally White privilege: The comic
>>140380918
Someone put Halsey's face on that
>>140379886
I think it looks fine, I'm not sure why 343 still hasn't done Hoplite
Ive been doing Legendary H2 marathon all god damn day and i just started the Sacred Icon.
What are chances of me throwing my controller across the room in anger?
>>140384069
I'd say about 99.99%
>>140384069
Halo 2 is probably the legendary campaign I had the most trouble with
>>140384069
100%
>>140385546
I'd say that's pretty spot on, anon
>There will never be a Dead Space kind of Halo game, where you play as a lone ODST in an abandoned ship filled with Flood

Weekend Warzone Turbo is live
>>140387652
Ha ha, time for reqs!
>>140387413
I just wish rookie didn't die in such a dumb way
Who up for WZ turbo?
>>140389406
>>140387652
you know it isn't up right?
>>140387652
>>140389406
I wish it wasn't a huge waste of reqs
>>140387652
>>140389406
>Warzone Turbo
I think the only fun thing I did with that was capture the monument with a Mantis at the start of the game
>>140389986
Shut up Shen
>>140390518
I had some fun with mounting an oni mantis onto an ultra wraith
>>140391815
I really do think warzone turbo is fun, for all its faults
>>140392858
If it didn't use of REQ cards, it would probably make up for all of Warzone's usual faults.
Two teams of twelve mantises facing off would be amazing.
>>140392858
It's fun until it isn't.
I had one game where the moment we got out of our base three Ultra Banshees started shooting us and every fucking guy I saw had The Answer and/or Invisibility
>>140394130
Yes?
>>140393041
It's nice even with that, I guess.
I've got a lot of unused req cards that I'll never use in regular.
Starting a lobby, join up for some Halo shenanigans.WITH A NICE LACK OF STUPID AUTISTIC BULLSHIT.
>>140395465
I've got about 30 or so ultra wraith that I never use, so it's pretty nice
>>140395913
You mean without the pizzafaggot?
>>140397032
Pizza is okay you cuck.
>>140384069
When I was 12, I created my own gods just to have some to curse over Halo 2 on legendary. If you've matured past the age of 12 you might be alright,but I sure didn't :^)
>>140397182
Fuck off, pizza.
>>140397032
No autistic bitching of any kind.
Join for clean fun.I can't handle that sort of autistic shit today.
>>140397539
>it's a "kick pizza on sight" episode
>I can't watch it today

>>140397758
Odds are I'll be doing halo all day, so hop in whenever you can
>>140397332
That sounds autistic as fuck man
Warzone turbo was a lie?
>>140397182
>Pizza damage control
>>140398171
Unfortunately, yes
>>140398124
Pretty much is autistic as fuck. I was in my edgy phase.
>>140398336
Don't worry anon, everyone's had that phase
>>140399061
I didn't.

:stopbully:
>>140401009
Hey, dumping a mag into his weak, pitiful corpse won the game.
>>140401009
No, bullying must continue until the balls are on the visor.
>>140401857
Is this enough balls?
>>140402304
No, we need more balls.
So get on halo and contribute to putting balls on visors.
>>140403018
Can't. Busy.
Have a dumb thing.
Guys.
Im about to do the Gravemind on Legendary

Fool me once...
>>140406114
No, it's actually up this time.
Because unlike Tabris, I'm not a dirty liar.
>>140405598
Oh, go on then.
>>140406317
It was up, and we're playing it now. Also I kept your damn thread alive, Sigmund.

Is that fucking me?
>>140410820
It could be, anon.
Who are you anyway?
>>140411029
Me in the middle, with the Scout.
>>140411157
Yes it is, aces, yes it is.

Finally, Scout lives matter.

>>140350420
Who's the black helljumper helmet with the silver visor up front?
>>140410820
No its me
>>140413274
It ain't me starts playing
>>140413078
Tell me about Sigmund, why does he wear the helljumper?
So what's the complete list of people in the OP?
>>140412060
thanks I guess
>>140414314
Tangee, Aces, Sigmund, Shenron, Rathalisk, Chaosdroid, with Crusading appearing on a leaf and Rabbit peeking into the bath.
If anybody wants more images done gimme some, because I'm bored as shit at night.
>>140414796
Have fun.
>Reqs arent working for me
Fucking 343
>>140415345
It's the worst when it happens in Turbo and you can't use the fun shit
What's the appeal of cum?
>>140415527
Least I can make do picking up everyone elses
>>140415595
It's hot
>>140415734
Yeah, but muh loadout weapons
>>140415782
Yeah, wish I had my DMR
>>140415886
I just wish I could use a kinetic SMG to deal with the ghosts
>>140415345
Same. First match too
>>140415782
I never select energy blade weapons on my own. I always POS that shit, and it only ever sees use when I do that, because I'm already surrounded by dead bodies.
Surely more bodies would follow.
>>140416194
I use it on the DMR, give me options
>>140416185
Usually if you reset your game it fixes it
Who /blowingphaetonsinturbo/ here?
>>140417749
Probably could've left that sentence at "who /turbo/ here" and the answer would've been two people. C'mon, senpaitachi.
>>140418051
Nah, wanted to see who was wasting the really rare reqs
>>140418603
There's really no point to use the higher req vehicles
So it's helmet never ever, right?
Halo 2 Legendary done. Again.I did not have fun. At all.
Is it churlish of me to complain that a weapon called the scattershot is the least consistent weapon in any game ever? Because this is fucking bullshit.
>>140403989
Just keep your distance and try to get headshot weapons. In the Scorpion, just no scope tank-snipe everything. Actually becomes pretty easy once you have a good grasp of when stuff is coming at you
>>140421043
That's because you should do it with friends, like me.Please do it with me sometime
>>140415595
Insemination
>>140414796
Couldve just said kai and friends
>>140421660
If you wanted in on it, you could have asked, anon.
And Kai isn't even on it.
>>140421341
But the name matches the behavior.
>>140421341
they just didn't want a repeat of 4 with the scattershot
>>140421853
>And Kai isn't even on it.
Who do you think took the photo dumbass.
>>140421341
It' pretty funny when you shoot someone point blank and it does nothing
>>140421874
>>140421969
Turns out the cuckold was lucky enough to spawn with the Didact's Signet. Watch this JFK bullshit. Back, and to the left. Back, and to the left.
Christ, this just killed any urge I had to play. I'm still mad.
>>140421341
No.
>>140422087
I never thought of that, good eye, anon!
>>140422345
>all hit

>>140426425
What the fuck is this picture?
>>140426425
>>140427090
What do you think it is?
What do you see in it, anon?
We art critique now.
>>140428042
Massive fucking faggotry, with Sigmund sitting on a throne.
>>140428318
All I see is Kai on a throne surrounded by his Friends.Or maybe a butterfly, if I squint hard enough
Why do developers only listen to Leddit these days?
>>140428573
>343 doesn't even listen to their own forums
Fucking kek.
>>140428318
I see Pizza on a throne surrounded by tripfags as his spawn, with wojacks being innocent anons
>>140428694
To be honest, their forums are pretty damn shite.
>>140428945
I just wish they'd listen to anybody half decent
>>140430021
If they listened to half-decent people's criticisms, we'd have Phil handing Bonnie Ross a pink slip on-stage at E3.
>>140430283
Now THAT I would pay to see
>>140430473
>I'd like to invite Miss Ross a certificate of congratulation on the successful release of Halo: The Master Chief Collection!
>>140430610
Imagine the roar of happiness ripping through the crowd
>>140430610
And right after everyone gets a full refund
>>140430834
That's a pipe dream, but it's really all I want out of that shit-heap
>>140430834
It's kinda sad that they could just make four individual "games" that require the MCC disc to run, and have them all use separate menu systems and servers, and everything would be fixed.
>>140431706
I've got no idea why they didn't, I blame the outsourcing if anything
>>140432328
343 should stop outsourcing. This has happened with every game they've done because that seems to be their primary strategy.
Their secondary is "try to copy what Bungie did without understanding what Bungie did."
The third is "copy Titanfall."
>>140432521
It's honestly just mismanagement at this point, because they certainly have the resources for it.
>>140432587
The motherfuckers have a blank check, and several templates of exactly how to write things, in code and story. All they have to do is add new weapons, upgrade the graphics, and maybe add a gimmick per game. But they keep fucking it up!
>>140432752
It's a crying shame, because Halo 5 is a damn good game, but the content is just nonexistent.
>>140433083
>Halo 5 is a damn good game
No, it's a decent game with a ton of flaws that could be easily fixed. If those flaws were fixed, it'd be a damn good game, but those flaws aren't going to be fixed unless we get new management.
>>140433470
Here's hoping for a separate management team to handle Halo 6
>>140433972
Not anytime this decade.
>>140432752
>>140433083
Halo 5's legacy code is missing a ton of the old values and variables though. So many things just don't tick.
The customs settings are a dead giveaway. 343 is dumb but they wouldn't purposely sabotage themselves by leaving out half the settings. They ACTUALLY don't have them anymore.
Even the physics have huge differences. Remember how the Scorpion would tweak the hell out if it flipped over too quickly? In pretty much every Halo game? Even Halo 4? Doesn't do that in Halo 5.
Remember how hitscan magnetism worked? The entire BR burst would magnetize if the reticule was red, none of the bullets would miss. In Halo 5 some of the burst can miss if you don't stay in magnetism range the entire burst.
1st for Tanaka really isn't that bad, especially compared to Vale and Palmer.
On another not why does Cortana have such a raging hate boner for Infinity.
>tfw everyone is playing Dark Souls III instead of Halo
>tfw even if you were a Souls fan, you'd prefer to get the PC version
>>140434971
Oh, Tanaka isn't bad, she's just boring as shit.
Palmer legitimately sucks.
Also, bad writing most likely.
Did they ever explain it?
>>140434971
Tanaka is a case of "Why was she made a spartan, and why was she with Osiris? She wasn't special, and she was carried through the glassing."
Vale is a case of "literally above and beyond in everything with no training ever."
Tanaka's boring. Vale's annoying.
>>140434971
Nobody hates Tanaka.
That would imply she has character traits.
>>140435510
Her character trait was asking people to find the mechanical problem so she could fix it, then Locke fixing it for her.
>>140435170
I'd be down for some later, or in the morning, fampai
>>140435575
It's even a trait that nullifies itself
>tfw you realize the closest Locke came to cracking a joke was "You ask, you buy."
>>140436009
Nah, he also had "That's twice!"
But humor really is probably the biggest thing 343 didn't understand about the writing. Even Chief had dumb one-liners that he obviously knew were dumb.
>>140436009
That;s because they tried to play Locke straight, not realizing he in and of himself is a joke
>>140436009
343is halos are really missing someone like johnson.
>>140436248
Dumb one-liners and shit like that are standard for military personnel, helps to cope.
Kind of funny that the ONI Spook is incapable of it, while the suped-up infantryman has an actual personality.
>>140436494
>tfw I actually chuckled when Chief got irritated with Cortana in Halo CE
>>140436661
>Usually, the lord works in mysterious ways.BUT NOT TODAY!
>>140436661
Of course, you were going through a whole bunch of crazy shit, and then you get a nice quip to lighten the mood a bit.
It makes for good storytelling.
>>140436494
Perhaps in the next one they could give him a meme reference
>>140436840
>nice quip
marvel fan?
>>140436880
>Palmer comes up, apologizes, says that Chief is a big guy
>in the most condescending tone every, Locke says "For you."
There. I just redeemed TWO characters.
>>140436880
You know what, I wouldn't even be mad at that point. Better than a serious nigger with zero personality.
>>140436891Yes. I still hate waypool, though.
>>140437029
Hey, as long as it makes fun of Palmer's attitude, it's fine by me.
>>140436880
"Cortana, I'm ONI."
>>140437671
>finally get on Halo after not playing for almost a week
>literally a dark souls party
What the fuck, guy?
>>140437671
Dr. Halsey, not Cortana.
You know, because it has "Dr." in it
>>140437963
>see us all on dark souls
>complain after joining anyway
>>140437963
I'll play some Halo, droid.
Not my fault everyone goes to dank at night.
>>140438091
What purpose would it serve to join?
>>140438143
To play some halo, of course.

Hopefully, I'm sick of waiting
>>140433972
Marry, fuck, kill. Go.
>>140435170
Be careful if you do. There's a fuck-up with the lighting that affects some people (including me) by making your entire PC shit the bed when near bonfires. It doesn't happen with lighting set to low though.
>>140443526
Marry left, fuck right, kill middle
