|OFFICIAL| Halo 3 Beta Blowout

[Remysaus]

nice, they just added big team battle (12 players) fantastic battles :D

[Lingwo]

I should be able to play on Wednesday (maybe Thursday). I got a new router on its way so i'll be able to have open NAT!

Thank you linksys for making a router that doesn't work.

[bdsams Veteran]

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.

I agree, I am a competative person only from the time the game starts until it ends, after that is all about laughing out ourselves for the dumb/awsome things we did

I came into work yesturday and told my supervisor that i had a k/d ration of 3:1 and she was like "uhh huhh, and did this further our soceity in any fashion? [/joke]

some people act like putting there a level 11billion will go on their resume and get them a job...

[DR3AMxCATCHER]

Okay. See, now you guys are taking it to far. I've said from the get go that, that was a good game for him..I just pointed out his flaw. Why is it when I seem to say well you died a lot everyone gets upset, but when I said that..that is a good game for him it's overlooked?

Btw, level 21 in Team Skirmish not 11billion.

[GNRambo]

I own

Bungie needs to fix matchmaking, i always seem to face overpowered or underpowered opponents :s

Well that's the point of the beta, to test the matchmaking so they can have it (as close to) perfect come release.

Can't say i've had a problem with the opponents it's placed me against though, it's always been just right.

ragn4rokk: try the towel trick and see if it comes back to life.

[gigapixels Veteran]

Woah guys, I'm really fine with his comment. I don't need encouragement or anything. I can get extremely good at any game I put enough time into (some I just rock already :p) so I don't need encouragement. I know that in time I'll be much better, so it's no problem.

One thing I've noticed about my gameplay is that I start off really strong and kicking ass, but a little further into the round I start to screw up. I just need to fix that :/

[Sethos]

Is noone playing this game to have fun, everybody is talking about skills, owning, kicking ass and stats :s

Ewww, It's one of those games where everybody is turning elitist?

<- I am. I could really care less about my stats or ranking. Parties are just too fun for me to care about it much.

(hence, why I'm in recreation and not pro)

[gigapixels Veteran]

Oh I'm definitely doing this to have fun, and I have fun no matter how well I'm doing. But you must admit that it does feel good when you can dominate :laugh:

[Trong]

I'll have to admit that I enjoy seeing my stats being high and my rank being high. I'm not too good at anything else so at least I can see that I'm excellling in something. I get angry in most of the games that I am losing but when I'm playing with friends, or with you guys, I try as hard as possible to keep it in. The last thing I want is to have a bunch of people on a forum hating on me.

@DirtyLarry: When you say competive, do you mean at like MLG tournaments? If so, then no. I just played MLG gametypes and Team Hardcore all the time.

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

For all those that don't know yet, Bungie has updated the playlists with Big Team Battle and now a 12 player limit. They also added in Banshee's :D

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

^ I meant like just play where it is kept track of, in a league I guess would be the best way to explain it.

Leaving work now, will be playing for possibly an hour or so when I get home in about an hour. Heroes is on though and I also have a side freelance job I have to get going on, so I might not play, but if I do, it is definitely as soon as I get home.

[Meshuggah]

Well, Monkey, Green Eyes, myself, creamhackered and Paul had some good games. We got owned on the last one.

They have added 6 on 6 now for BTB (I think it stands for Big Team Brawl) so we had some 12 people matches.

THE BANSHEE was on Valhalla, so that was nice. Anyway, hopefully later on we can get a nice 12 man Neowin match going on. I'm getting sick of the little kids. :p

The Bansee was there? I didn't see it when we did BTB on Valhalla today. Maybe it's just certain gametypes? What were you playing?

Haha, nice. I'm gonna try and take that eventually, just need some more time :pinch:

Haha no doubt you'll take it :p You got some slick moves.

On Valhalla, the side with the beach, the Banshee is up on the cliff side to the right (there's a small edge). And on the other side the banshee is straight at the back of the base :) It's only available in BTB Training playlist for the moment I think.

edit: Noy.r3D2, you need a copy of Crackdown with the beta included (boxes marked with a sticker).

[JAbad28]

Oh, alright thanks DrunknMunky!

That is exactly what I do, read it and weep. :rofl:
MillerGDraft said someone must have died alot for you guys to get those high scores so quickly. Well, guess who that was.
Of course you have to include my worst game!!

My best game by far was the Team Neutral Bomb that bangbang was part of. As sad as it may sound, if you check the Carnage, I believe that was the first game I was in the plus.

Seriously though I suck at the free for all, but I consider myself a semi-decent player when there is a team goal in mind.
