Subject: It is a sad day...

Games I like:,
Half-Minute Hero
MBU
Portal
Halo 3 is the best Halo ever
Maps I like: Turf, Avalanche, Pylon, Sandbox, Breakpoint and many more.

Many of our Top Forum topics ahve died. We will not forget Grumpys threads, or totallymassives tribute page.


Lets get these back up there. They deserve it.

I think he simply gave up with being on the forum. I don't really know why though.

Maybe it's because I post here too much.

Anyways, it's not as bad as the Halo 3 Forum.

As for ODST forum, that's because that's closest to CE while having the scenery, atmosphere, and enemies from Halo 2. Reach forum is active because people prefer it to the other Halos despite disliking many aspects of it. CE received a popularity boost thanks to CEA.

All Halo 2 forum needs is anniversary and people will be flocking to it. The Legendary achievements will be a pain in the ass.

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo Reach > Halo CE

Based on campaigns.

Ha ha what about my hot topics

The Reach forums hate Reach to be honest.

You mean your troll threads? yeah, congrats on sparking such an idiotic criticism in the home of the veterans who love the game to death.

I was under the impression that they were merely dissatisfied with Reach and playing it because there was no other Halo choice for them (and of course some people enjoy it).

My analysis-
MP only players.
About 90% dislike Reach.
Few campaign players/glitchers (about only 3).
Complains but never switches games.

The Reach forum is quite an anomaly.

They just seem to hate everything. There's more cynicism in any one thread there than there is on 4chanz random board during the night shift.

What is keeping the remnants of H2 alive is the nostalgia of the game and the forum. H2 forums will be flooded by people that will slowly eat away at this forum like the flood if an Anniversary edition is made. imo the current state of this forum is pretty alright.

lol, the only thing going on in the ODST forums is people asking for help to unlock the 'endure' achievement.
as for HALO 3's forum: custom games anyone?

i'm not going to jump on the band wagon with the rest, yes reach wasn't as good as the other HALO titles but i have to admit the DMR was a pretty cool weapon: i never would have thought of a cross between the BR and sniper rifle, like how the BR is a cross between the AR and sniper rifle.
winter contingency was a good (perhaps the only good) campaign level/firefight map
i also like the ability of being able to drive civilian vehicles such as trucks or forklifts wich couldnt be done in the rest.

however its multiplayer maps were terrible (especially reflection) even with the anniversary map pack, reach is not much fun.
alot of weapons are too weak: the AR, more so the sword which gets worse as the series progresses
juggernaut bug: can only use the gravity hammer
lets not bring up armour lock... oops

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

I have a feeling my Final Few thread may die soon. It's very disappointing. Not because it's my thread, but because of the story it tells.

Yup, it's the best, it should be pinned so that doesn't happen.

Also, there was another thread, a Sign Here funeral for H2. It was like 1,600 pages or some such. It should be pinned too.

Well, I'm done making threads about the same thing. My poll spam must end! Btw I just redid the AI collection (starting from the beach) and I'll be posting one big tutorial on Jumprs someday. This time, I'll have plasma pistols for the Councilors battle. :P

Couple of things I learned:

-if Johnson gets stuck in the gap at the blown up door, just stick him with a grenade and sometimes he'll run out of it
-enemy AI outside are gone when loading point in burnt room is triggered. I was trying to get one of the unarmed Brutes to board my Wraith (once you hit the water, he loses interest but he will pursue you so you can just lead him onto land and then he'll board) and get him into the control room with the Wraith but the loading point (I wanted to get do the Wraith into the control room after I moved the Elites, Hunters, and marines into the burnt room and got the cp) killed that for me
-all the Banshees that I boarded at the beach are gone when the aforementioned loading point is triggered. It's a good thing I modded to get all those Banshees to the blown up door or I'd be very disappointed right now. Only 5 Banshees were left behind and they were the ones that I didn't get by boarding
-only 1 Spectre is needed for getting the AI to the blown up door

Interesting, only about 1/3 of the Banshees I boarded vanished in my GJ vehicle collection.

Huh that's odd. I don't know about what happened to you, but maybe what happened to me was the result of putting the Banshees I boarded too close to each other. Some of them disappeared while I was bringing the Hunters to the blown up door and one disappeared in front of me when I put the remaining ones in a cluster.

To board the Banshees, I went to the edge of the beach, showing myself for a while then crouching beneath the water so they would come closer to me and then I'd board them. I also killed the Brutes after ejecting them.

Keep it authentic...

Good thing I saved most of those threads.

He was banned a while back and lost his upright frenzy. I am consistently consistent and inconsistent, but for people like TM, enforcement hits him hard.
