|OFFICIAL| Halo 3 Beta Blowout


Recommended Posts

;) Thanks for the tip. Now if only I could make my XBL icon it as well... :shifty:

I know. I wish we could have custom images for our Gamertag icons... But it would probably be abused with offensive images, and I'm guessing that's why they don't allow it. :/

Closest you'll get to that is using the Vision camera. Only friends will see it and it's a little pixalated/discoloured, it can turn out ok sometimes though :)

Thank God im back online again my ISP is really unreliable and i thought they were down again :o

*But through my dark ninja arts i was able to get it back up again :shiftyninja:

*no ninja arts were used i actually just restarted reuter and hoped for the best... :rofl:

I posted this in the Halo 3 Beta Gameplay thread last night, but I wasn't sure if you all read that thread as well, so here's a nice bit of info:

Hey, that's a pretty good idea, thanks for that. I'll stick to mine though as it seems to identify me and it'd be weird to change :p

Regarding the threads, I vote for a Merge since the discussion seems to be mostly here and some separation with posts in the other thread.

Halo 2

# Total Kills: 53984

# Total Deaths: 37588

# Kill/Death Ratio: 1.4362

# Total Assists: 14390

Halo 3

# Total Kills: 878

# Total Deaths: 667

# Kill/Death Ratio: 1.3163

# Total Assists: 309

Unfortunately, I'm not nearly as good in Halo 3 as I am in Halo 2, but hopefully that will change when the final is released and I have a few more weeks under my belt. I'm getting there... ;)

It was probably only because all the other players were nubs, but it's okay, it made me feel better :p

Got home from work today and wanted to fire up some Halo 3, and what do I get?

Red rings of death :cry:

By the time I get my X Box fixed, the beta'll be expired. This sucks. Worst possible time for a console to go out.

RIP 360

Damn, that really sucks man, sorry to hear that. But, hey, at least it's still under warranty I'm guessing? Plus, Halo 3 will be out in September so your wait isn't too too long. :)

It's $140 for repairs. Warranty ended a long time ago.

Gah. Anyone else who's ever turned on a 360 to find it totally useless knows how I feel. Anyone who's ever seen a $400+ piece of hardware flush itself down the drain does.

Not too great of a game. You have a +5 kill death ratio. Good game for you though!

Come on now, don't be so hard on him. He's getting better and better :) Keep it up pixels (Y)

EDIT: Wow, I just realized something, it doesn't look like they're keeping track of Hit % (or am I just missing it?) That really sucks. I think that's probably one of the most important stats to gauge your progress by and I can't believe they took it out. :(

Luckily..I've had a warranty of my 360 through all it's failures. I've been on 3 different 360's in the past week and one day..don't fill bad..they wanted me to send it in and I was like umm how about not.

I know. I wish we could have custom images for our Gamertag icons... But it would probably be abused with offensive images, and I'm guessing that's why they don't allow it. :/

I'm thinking the reason is more that they sell picture packs. Who would buy them if they could get their own pics?

So instead of pointing that out, why not encourage his progression? We're all here to have fun, not everything is a competition. :)

For real. If the time comes we need to band out into groups to the people who take this all way to seriously and only care about their stats and the people who play just for fun and keep track of their stats, then I for one have no issues at all with that if it means everyone enjoying themselves.

For the record we all want to compete, we all just do not care about being the best players on the planet.

    • Limited time Prime Day deal cuts price of this Hisense 65" 4K smart TV in half by Ivan Jenic It’s Amazon Prime Day, and brands are offering great deals to consumers. One of the best deals of the day is definitely this Hisense 65" U7, which is currently $799.99 on Amazon, down from $1,499.99. That's nearly 50% off and $700 saved on this feature-packed 4K TV (purchase link down below). The U7 uses Mini-LED backlighting with up to 3,000 local dimming zones and up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness. That means blacks are truly deep and highlights are punchy enough to hold up even in bright rooms. The screen is covered with a dual-layer anti-reflection coating, which prevents the afternoon overhead lights from washing the picture. For gaming, the native 165Hz refresh rate and VRR 330 support make this one a great TV option for PS5 and Xbox Series X. The TV even features a native game mode, which should help minimize the input lag for a better gaming experience. Audio is handled by a 2.1.2 channel system tuned by Devialet, which is a notable partnership for a TV at this price. Additionally, Dolby Vision IQ, Dolby Atmos, and IMAX Enhanced are all supported. It runs Fire TV with Alexa+ built in. So, if you’re looking for a sharp, large screen to watch the World Cup on, the U7 at this price is definitely an attractive option. Speaking of which, Hisense is the official sponsor of the World Cup, which should mean absolutely nothing to you, and isn’t the reason why you should by this TV. The reason why you should buy it is that it’s “la bella televisione, HDTV-compatible, beautiful,” and available at half the price. Hisense 65" U7 Mini-LED 4K Smart Fire TV - $799.99 | 47% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified. We only use first-party seller links (at the time of article publishing); ensure that you purchase from a first-party seller link only. Check out Today's Deals on Amazon | or our recent tech deals.

    • Re: Capitalism. It's just 1 of dozens of economic models currently-adopted worldwide; most national models separate money from politics thereby limiting the influence wealth carries over the economy (due to limited tentacles wealth politics has over the broader economy). The "American model" of unfettered financial influence should NOT be the variant of pure capitalism adopted worldwide. More regulations formulated within this variant is effectively useless due to the misalignment between regulatory objectives and fundamental influence wealth politics carry over the market. Re: enough money. Without constraining the breadth/depth/scope/scale that any measure of money/wealth can have within a market, there will always inherently be those who have "enough money" and those who do not. Those without "enough money" will always lose -- regardless if a bedroom DJ, indie developer, or million-dollar corporation going against a billion-dollar mega-corporation. The evil is the absence of guardrails against the influence of wealth; not the mere existence of wealth. Re: dragged through the courts. The liberalist nature of litigation does not exclude anyone, anywhere, for any reason for getting dragged through the courts. Rather than formalize remediation pathways for various perceived ills, everything is left up to flawed interpretations... and this is where a litigation-averse community fails to thrive (thus a losing proposition when dragged to courts). Everyone should have more protections and clear remediation strategies! Going to an alternate remediation arbitration is OK so long as the case review and remediation processes are clear and transparent. For corporations, hit them where it hurts: automatic financial penalties. (PS: This is where corporate risk management strategies would do well to behave more ethically.) Overall, failure to truly shake-up the incentive core and regulatory extremities of the economic market will necessarily mean that all other actions are simply applying lipstick on a pig. Change begins from the inside. Is the root cause of the problem that a majority of consumers within a market goes for Option Brand-name versus Option Indie? Or that brand-name is spending foreign money to control domestic markets? Or that money is the objective measure for success across all walks of life? Or that deep pockets dictate the moral and ethical rights/wrongs of entire societies? Regardless of the answer (and there's nothing inherently wrong with being a socialist or communist or whatever label your surroundings deem 'cool' or 'uncool') there's a common thread: If a market truly wants to nurture domestic innovation, then performative finger-wagging will do nothing to that end.
