Dude...you are talking to someone that works in the construction industry. They have FLOOOOOOODED our market. Our construction jobs use to pay a MUCH HIGHER wage, but they have brought the wages WAY WAY WAY down by flooding our market. You ever been on a construction job lately? lol

Yes, I will be happy to concede that labour jobs have had an increase in Hispanic workers and this does affect wages. Fortunately, stimulus packages have lead to a lot of rebuilding America projects and the construction workers have been fairly well employed throughout the recession and onwards.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

Wow... how is this thread still going? No one gives a -blam!- about politics, become a lawyer if it bothers you that much. We got enough garbage in the UK to worry about, especially those goddamn conservatives.

Well, when you allow the offspring demon child of Maggie and Satan to try to run the country, people generally aren't too pleased with the leadership.

I think OP had touched on some important/significant issues of not only Reach, but the very essence of online multi-player.

I think as a participant in a 'competitive game', I enter knowing ahead of time that the other players could in fact 'out perform' me at any given moment in time. It is when this happens I begin to question and analyze of why it is that the other team has the upper hand-

*Are they controlling a part of the map for an advantage?*
-what parts of the maps can be used to counter that given area?-
*Do they have access to weapons/tools that you don't?*
-what do you have access to that can be used against them? What should you do to avoid tactics usually performed with the said weapons/tools?-
*Are they better than you as a player overall?*
-Can you lure them into a situation where the advantage is in your favor? Or can you do anything differently that might have different results?-

Most of these core questions are answered through the implementation of Armor Abilities in Halo Reach, but of course they also bring up more issues based on how they are used... and what the reaction is surrounding the new tactics and experience brought forth.

Success in Reach is gauged by the decisions one makes throughout the entire duration of the match as opposed to moment to moment situations (as seen in CoD and other like-minded FPS's).

As for me: I'm focused on winning, but I'm also equally inclined to learn from my losses as well. I ask myself after every Kill or Death "why was I (un)successful?" and use this information to try to build a profile of the general playing style players adapt at given situations (so I'm better to react to them and know ahead of time of what to expect).

So essentially there's a little try-hard in all of us... but it depends on how much seeing to a certain outcome matters, and what it means.

It proves that developers can get away with punishing their players instead of fixing their game....and yet the fanboys will still sing praises to them.

Yep.

You see the people who responded with nothing more than to say the thread got derailed?

They are the idiots.

Because in reality, it stayed On Topic, the entire time.


Why you think America spends so much time trying to deal with the Worlds Problems? Because they know. Unfortunately, the rest of you have to start making an effort to meet us halfway. Because our resources can only go so far.

NWO my ass. It's common -blam!- sense. If we don't learn to get along and live as one people under god or whatever (That goes for EVERYONE) We're -blam!-. If it takes population control and an NWO to accomplish that task. So be it.

Even in your video games, you do not think of the other players. You're being brainwashed by video games to be retards hellbent on sending yourselves to hell in a handbag. Wake the -blam!- up.


Also, back to the birthrate problem. When was the baby boom generation born? They are now retiring. Perfect example of people not giving a -blam!- and selfishly popping kids out left and right. We are now paying the consequences of their actions. The solution is not to escalate the problem on an exponential scale. It's to man up and ride out the bump in the road and to lend a helping hand if you have the resources to do so.

Just think about it... way into the future. If we survive that long. What kind of governmental system do you think we will need to adopt to be Interstellar travelers? You think the world is going to be able to do that if we continually draws borders across the entire face of the earth?

-blam!- NO!

  • 07.18.2012 12:36 PM PDT

why in the hell would I ever back down? I go in with a no mercy policy. To crush and decimate my enemies. I would never go easy on any player. Just give me a DMR and I destroy anything that isn't team colors.

You telling me and others to back down? that only makes us fight harder. I never have and never will back down regardless if the score is 49 to 49 or 48 to 1. They can ragequit all they want. I don't earn a ton of perfections by going easy on players. I rule the battlefield with an iron first and tyrannical rule. I am unrelenting until the score is reached or the game timer runs down =)
