|OFFICIAL| Halo 3 Beta Blowout


Recommended Posts

I believe they just decreased the range of the auto aim, which IMO was brilliant. More skill, less computer aid.

No, I'm not talking about the auto-aim. The rate of the auto-aim now is really good, I like it as it's not too much but seems to be just enough. I'm talking about the acceleration of the aim. When you push your stick all the way to one direction it seems to accelerate really rapidly to that direction and you can't really slow it down by going in the middle because when you nudge it towards a direction it goes too slowly, but doing it a little more and it goes full speed. In Halo 2, it seemed more 'analog' in it's motion in that you can really control the speed of the turning much more than you could in the beta. Hopefully this gets tweaked for the final.

I'm having a problem saving videos. I could do it an hour ago, but now I can't. I tried deleting a couple just to see if I had hit some limit or something, but it's still not working. Has anybody had any issues saving films lately? I REALLY want to save this one too. I did really well :(

Well when people were having issues near the beginning of the beta, where it said that the beta was over, it still allowed them to watch films IIRC. It happened to me once.

haven't played all that much, but the times i did play were all equally awesome, especially some games at a friend's place, a lot of swearing and laughing :laugh:

woah... thats some freaky face... maybe we'll get to see his face in campaign then if they've actually got it in the model. whats happened under his left eye (its on the right in the video, but for him its his left), thats some nasty scar that you wouldn't get if you're in one of those suits 24/7 :p

For some reason I still can't see any face in that. I just see some spots and thats it. :s

Check your brightness and contrast, and/or for example on my powerbook I had tilt my screen a little. It is there, the eyes, cheeks, and some nose, it is just buried among the black.

May be the scar is from the flood form that gets inside his suite in Halo ? Or did it get through his neck ?

magik you read the books, remember ?

Yea, IIRC, I believe it latched on to the back of his neck where his suit isn't really plated. But I don't think this would create that scar under his eye like that. Maybe the scar is from one of the earlier training missions or something like that? I'm really not sure where it could be from...

The upcoming comics might shed some light ;)

    • I have a older F4-210 NAS, it is pretty basic, the CPU is not the fastest by a long way and only 1GB of ram, but it works fine. I don't understand the need for A.I in a NAS. It seems like A.i is being shoved into everything, if we like it or not. i will stick to my old Terramsater NAS, thankfully the OS is not being updated. Also, got myself a small NAs built using a Raspberry Pi 5. iy usesd less energy, so stays on all the time. As for the unit above, if it is as reliable as my old Terramaster Nas, then it will be a good unit.
    • Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors by David Uzondu Google has started rolling out an update to Gemini in Google Sheets that allows the AI to diagnose and fix formula errors in one click, as long as your Workspace admin has Gemini for Workspace in Sheets turned on. According to Google, the new feature can handle pretty much everything from basic arithmetic to very complex calculations. This ability to debug formula errors comes about two years after Google introduced basic formula generation with Gemini in Sheets. To create a formula with Gemini in Sheets, you open a spreadsheet on your computer and click Ask Gemini in the top right corner. You can also enter an equals sign in any cell and use a shortcut like Ctrl + Alt + G on Windows and Chrome OS, or Command + Ctrl + G on macOS. Once you open the side panel, you write a natural language prompt using your sheet references. For example, you can ask Gemini to divide goals by games, or to find cell C1 in range D:G. If for some reason, the formula Gemini generated doesn't work, or maybe you wrote the formula yourself, you can troubleshoot the issue directly inside the grid. When a cell shows an error message, you hover over it and click "Fix". This action opens the side panel where Gemini analyzes the data structure and automatically applies the fixes when they are ready. You can cancel the process at any time by clicking stop in the side panel. Image via Google Google has been pushing its Gemini integration in Google Sheets for a while now, steadily moving AI features from side panels directly into user spreadsheets. Last year, the Mountain View giant shipped an =AI() Function in Sheets that allowed users to run translation and text generation directly inside cells instead of using the side panel interface. Earlier this year, the company announced that Gemini in Sheets had reached near-human expert performance, achieving a 70.48% success rate on the SpreadsheetBench dataset.
    • I get what you are saying, If i go onto the Instagram site, it says log in with Facebook, but they are not allowed to link my account with Instagram until I do that. Maybe in the U.S, they can link them, but Privacy is not a thing in the U.S. the way things are going,l won;t be any better in the U.K.

    • Exactly, this is just the beginning. I hope that by that time, our inept politicians devise something like a Universal Basic Income, because unemployment and poverty rates will skyrocket otherwise. And believe me, robots that perform physical work aren't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No career is truly safe from AI/robots, it's just a matter of time.
