7even is Darker

Myth: is the game visuals actual upgraded after taking a screenshot, or is it just added Anti Aliasing and AF, plus a higher resolution?

I've got a "myth" for you. I saw it happen in Halo 2 once. It was hilarious:

Can you sticky an active frag grenade?

Back in Halo 2, I was fighting on uh... the city map, what's it called?... Headlong! I was fighting behind the defense base on the bridge up top, and I threw a frag while my opponent threw a sticky. The stick caught to it, and they spun hyper-fast on the spot before exploding.

So y'think you can replicate it? Prove that they kept that physics trait in the game or not?

Myth: If you stick a warthog on both sides at the same time it won't go anywhere.

is it possible for the bullets of two people's br's to collide?

That would be pretty hard to film.

A lot of great ideas guys. Don't worry, we're not going anywhere.
I know the gap between Episodes 3 and 4 is bigger than usual, but we'll have it released, plus more, very soon.

Patience.

glitch a hunter on the covenant without modding


Could you elaborate on that?
Add a hunter, glitch away a hunter...?

"Blaming Video Games/Movies for Violence is like blaming Food for Obesity."

I know some of these have been proven by luck, and some would be hard, but I would like to see it on mythbusters.

Can someones dead body fall/hit you with enough force to kill/damage you?
Can you melee a ghost/vehicle before it splatters you and get a kill? (sides/front, possible melee kill from the grave?)
Can you somehow arm and plant the bomb and live? (Run away fast enough, hide behind something, throw a bubble shield down?)
Can you contain the bomb explosion by throwing down a bubble shield on it after you plant it?
Is it easier to no scope on the back of a mongoose due to it's speed? (multiple hitbox?)
(Like, have someone strafing left and try shooting someone, then have someone on back of the mongoose, driving to your left, while you try shooting them?)
Can you hijack a boosting banshee/ghost any way at all? (sopposedly you can't if its fully boosting)
Can you deflect a sniper bullet with the grav hammer?

Saw this on a youtube video but,
On last resort, in the middle between the windmill and the base, on the bottom there is a column supporting the ramp from top windmill to base, is it possible to shoot through this and cause damage to someone hiding behind it? (Hang on ill try finding video) Here is video It's one of the last clips, Fast forward to 2:25, some people will say it's lag but.. It doesn't seem like it.

short controlled burst or continuous with the AR?
Can you ricochet a sniper bullet to kill yourself?
Does playing as a female help?

Short bursts do help it be more accurate.

OMG I'm a big fan I was a subscriber before the thread was here. Can you prove the myth that you cant stick the skull in someone's hand?

Can the bullet from a sniper rifle really penetrate 3+ armor covered bodies?

If you drop a flag in the air and a sticky hits it, it gets stuck but if it's on the ground it goes through it.

Can you actually duck a sniper bullet? Like by crouching, not jumping down?

.:KOOF:.

What i would like to see you try, is that if you got a splatter spree/vehicular manslaughter in a warthog then got in the gunner if you would get more splatter spree/vehicular manslaughter medals.

Someone mentioned " Can a cone kill you? "

Yes, my brother accidentally killed himself with one on The Pit, so we took video of it. He shot the cores by invis spawn, and one of those traffic cones shot straight into his face, and killed him. Impossible to replicate accurately. We tried.

I beat the whole Legendary campaign without shooting just for fun. So if you're going to go on the forums and talk s**t about how hard Cortana was don't expect any sympathy from me. You know what? You suck at campaign. There I said it. ODST 4th Battalion & BTW -Ha! I win!

Where is the never button?

The AU2 increased your sensitivity.
