A gravity hammer must be a tool of some sort, used to fix the exterior of space vessels. amirite?


Actually, it's used for parking enforcement.

LOL

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

Fiduciary.
Westernizationalize.
Congratulations.

It's an abbreviation of a haiku that describes the play-style of Bungie's new game.

Be frugal and cooperative, expand and conquer, then you win!

And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

This doesn't make sense.

Fapping walrus council?
It's a mystery, we won't know anything for at least a few months.

"Fapping While Constipated"?

My vote is for Future War Council/Committee.

The beta is super awesome. RogueAssassin27 is now the person who got my Totodile's nickname. Hoo-hah! Relevant.inb4lock

Possibility, but I think "Ferocious Whales Crying" is more likely.

Possible, but Bungie may have been hinting at this at the start of Halo 2 with "Frantic Whining Children".

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

Obviously commenting on speculation is obvious. :P

No, its a "group" (allegedly) similar to New Monarchy, Osiris, Dead Orbit, and Seven Seraphs.'

Nobody knows exactly what it is though. Its not a genre though. :P

Yes, it will be based of the concept of Flatland and will be named "Flatland: Communication Evolved".

Hell, it makes communication a whole lot simpler and easier now, doesn't it?

I'll have the roast duck . . . with the mango salsa.

FWC = Franks With Coke

It goes with the food theme established by the Three Tally Dorito Alliance.

Sounds kinda lame as a name to me though, but then again I have said the same for "Destiny" and "Armor Abillities"


One of my favorite Bnet posts ever was a response to a leak that said that there was going to be a thing called a "man cannon" in the next version of Halo. The commenter said there was no way the leak could be genuine because Bungie were professionals and they'd never call a game feature something so immature. :)

And to be clear, I'm not commenting on any of the speculation in this thread, just sharing something I thought was funny.
I though the name "sword base" could never actually be a map name and posted it after the beta. lol
