Main GT, banned forever on XBL: DISORDERRRRRRRR
Before game stalking me:: I boosted my Halo 3 EXP after being banned from XBL forever on this account (July 2011). I boosted and AFKed to Inheritor. I never cared about K/D but boosting grifball came with that.

This thread is full of two kinds of people:
1. People who know who he is and know that he is gonna help.
2. People who just see "MLG guy hired to change game" and complain about stuff they know nothing about.

/fact
Pretty much. The latter seem hellbent on spouting complete bull-blam!- to defend their case of "OMG LOLMLG IS GONA RUIN TEH MULTIPLAYR!"

You can't hire a player to help balance a game. It would be like hiring a hockey player to write the new rules of the sport. They're biased with their own playstyles. If the player likes playing physical, then they'll add in a little more leeway for what is allowed, and so on.

I don't even have Halo 4 yet and I know that getting "professional" players involved with a game is not a good thing

So, making the game more competitive is bad? LolK

Unless the player is actively trying to better the sport as a whole, not just their play style...

besides... it can't get worse. Getting help from someone who knows the flow of the gameplay and weapon balance as opposed to just the programming part is helpful.

Good to see a new face in the gaming industry. Can't wait to get on the inside someday, but as of right now that will have to wait.

If I ever get AIDS, I'm going to sleep with another AIDS person so my AIDS cancel each other out, or I'm going to make the AIDS I already have worse.

Someone got a job helping uncasualize a game, let's all be mad!

Well, that is one of the most general posts I've seen. Ever.

That's what I'm saying. What he sees as an improvement in balance in the game as a whole might not be seen that way for other casual or competitive players since they all have their own ideas for balance.

Basically, there's no way to balance a game. People with always complain about it so might as well save money and not hire random people as consultants

Lol @ all the women developing a game about war, shooting, and killing. Just goes to show how strong the feminist agenda is within 343i. I'm surprised they let Bravo on the team, him not having a vag and all...

Are you actually that retarded?
Ooh, insulted. Not like you can come up with a clear argument, right? Oh so silly Reachtards and 343bots. When will you learn that you're all plebs...

My DeviantArt Gallery - For my Photoshop stuff, go have a look!

I don't get why people are assuming he, and he alone will be affecting the gameplay, the team is still the same team that brought out Halo 4, with 1 extra person. He might be able to help pull the game in a more competitive direction but I don't expect much.

  • 12.06.2012 9:48 PM PDT

Wake me, when you need me.

Are people honestly butthurt over one person being hired at 343i? Stay classy, flood.

Except that's not how it works. I'm sure they can overcome their bias and give objective analyses. You know, like football players asked to be coaches, or really any job where you promote an existing employee to a management position.

Your logic fails when applied to reality, unfortunately.

Some MLG nobody? Great.
He's not a nobody. Ever hear of Triggers down?


No.
Lol, you're the nobody then. K, bye.


Because I haven't heard of some dude who's on an MLG team I've never heard of?
yup :D

He probably will not be able to do jack -blam!-. Since he is new, 343 will be watching him all the time. =)

I actually do not see him lasting long.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

I doubt much will change. Bravo is swimming in a sea of morons. It's only a matter of time before the conversion begins... if it hasn't already.

  • 12.06.2012 11:09 PM PDT

A single sane person at 343 won't change anything.
