for some of the unamed halo stuff... me and my friends use scope nopes for no scoping customs, and beastball for oddball where the ball carrier is a juggernaut. we also use vehicularball for oddball with all vehicles on coag or other large maps.

I don't know whether to laugh maniacally or run in shear terror at the Morphed Marty -Head Montage. Marty never looked so good...on other peoples bodies?

:-P

Other than that, I've been waiting for a nice jungle-themed Halo 2 map for some time now, and it's exciting to know I'll actually get to play one in the near future. That is of course, the monkey or monkeys are in some sort of Dr. Zaius-type lab, and the players are fighting against lab testing of animals. <sarcasm>Damn you all to HELL!</sarcasm>

Ill use what ever I weapon I feel like picking up to destroy you whether that be the newb tube or the needle rifle. So don't whine.

Old update subject but i think the new x button feature should be... "Active Halo" after your team grabs the secret remote hidden in a random spot on the map each game. and by activiating halo this will result in a blowing up of the map and eveyr player resulting in a tie. Great feature if your losing or being cheated some how. Am i right? lmao. Any way good update and um yeah I love water.. its very hydrating. and em.. Halo2 maps.. i want them.. i want hang em high. and i wantsuper cool new grav lift feature thingers. ah huh. and.. yeah thats it i better stop rambling.

nice update. cant wait to see the new water and grass effects. the whole floating spartan thing is a little weird cuz don't spartans weigh over a ton?

Been away from the flood for so long my sig didn't fit me, eventually something witty and mildly funny will go here, til then you get this.

Jacked up, me and some friends perfected it, on maps that have two banshees take one banshee fly around until you see someone else from other team in the other banshee and jack them mid-air where usually they don't anticipate it.

Awesome update sir.
i have one gamtype that i really enjoy, my cousin and i made it, its called the bull and the matador.
bull is a ghost that cant shoot, only ram.
matador is a guy with a shotty, cant board, cant nade, cant use other weapons, just shoot the 'bull' with the shotty, before he gets slammed:P once the matador or the bull dies, they switch.
its really fun seing who makes a better bull, or matador:P

i am reallllllllly looking foward to the new, non dualyable needler. im thinking, make it more like a rifle, with a longer stock.

Nice update cant wait for Halo 3 and Halo Wars.

  • 03.03.2007 9:41 PM PDT

Who wants a piece?

Tubular update!
Favorite game type? well its one that I made (sorry if someone else had the idea I didn't copy it!) I call it Predator. It's a juggernaut game type and the jug is the predator. He is invisible, speedy and must keep sword out at all times. But as for the other players, they can only use the default shotgun or switch it out for a pistol and possibly dual-wield them. (which I recommend the pistol since it has greater range) but they cant drop the sword because if they kill the predator they become it. It's a really fun game type and its best played on (the least-popular) Backwash. Gotta love the awesome hiding spots. Anyway, hopefully this game type actually gets out there. (add it to your list NOW!) Peace!

I NEED A TEAM

  • 03.03.2007 10:42 PM PDT

Bring your A game.

Great update, Frankie! I can't wait to get killed while drooling over some awesome tributaries or grass! As for names I/my friends have for Halo things:

"Hogtied" - Slayer with PP start, no weapons on map, only Warthogs on Zanzibar. The idea is to beat down and splatter people

"The Dark Tower" - the Relic, specifically 1 Flag on Relic

"Sticky Punch" - Slayer on Midship, PP and plasma grenades = lots of blue "hats"

The "Long Barrel" - Sniper (as in "Flailing about wildly with the Long Barrel")

"Smore Launcher" - Rocket Launcher

"Plasmaction" - plasma grenades (as in, when coming across plasmas, "Oh sweet, I got some plasmaction, yo")

The "Elbow" - the Defensive Base of 1 Flag on Lockout

The "Curly-Q" - the spiral ramp from Overshield in Big Tower on Ascension

The "Foxhole" - shotgun spawn on Ascension

The "Prongs" - the big structure fork thingy above Little Tower on Ascension

The "Lobby" - the front entrance of Big Tower on Ascension; where you would be if you walked straight up the front ramp and into the Big Tower

The "Clencher" - one hit kill with a bomb or flag by jumping and then meleeing


...more to come if I think of them...

I can't wait for teh new Campaign. The middle person is Jen Taylor, voice of Cortana. One of my favorite custom games: SWAT Rocks. Motion tracker, no shields, no weapon spawns, yes nades, spawn with SPNKR. So fun, no such thing as a killing spree.

You said you needed a list of what we call "stuff"...
Well,that's a general term(for me)....
It is:
1.Everything I can't mension(bad & irritating words)
2.weaponry
3.environment[including weather(the example with the chilly air),grass movement,tree movement,reflections,water movement and it's reality factor,air,how everything reacts when you shoot it,etc]
4.Masterchief's armor is the most "stuffy" thing!!!

And I do wait for your Misterchief's "stuffy" armor.....And by yours,I mean Frankie's!!!


7-the magic number of magicians(Harry Potter books)
7 is now Halo's lucky number too!!!!

unnamed gametype:

Compton - Team Slayer, no sheilds, 1 life, 4 rounds, first to 4 rounds wins, starting weapon is pistol, secondary shotgun, no guns on map and no grenades. Team colors have to be red and blue, you know. Bloods vs. Crips.

it's definitely the most fun gametype i've tried.

  • 03.04.2007 4:02 AM PDT

I'm not cool enough to name things with cool names like "Schwatchathon" and such, but whenever sometakes the oddball and the man says "ball taken" we all scream "tall bacon!" just because its funnier

Please do not make legendary any easier. I enjoy the challenge, and it really does sharpen your skills.

maybe add sumthin to bridge the dif between heroic and legendary?
