Isn't this the Oddworld Forums?

Wait what?

GAAH I can't concentrate on any of my homework now because of Reach, shit's gonna kill my GPA.

Alf Shall Rise 09-16-2010 03:31 AM

I got it and have started playing. I've only finished two levels so far, and it's been pretty sweet. I'm glad Halsey is in the game.

Phylum 09-16-2010 04:26 AM

EDIT: Fuck. This isn't the "What are you playing?" thread!

Hazel-Rah 09-16-2010 02:33 PM

You could talk about playing Reach.

Yeah it's such a fun game, I'm playing Firefight for the first time, last time I played shit like that online was MechAssault 2 on Xbox.

Daxter King 09-16-2010 02:45 PM

Hazel joined my game then didn't even talk to me.

I cant wait to have a muck around on forge world

Alf Shall Rise 09-18-2010 04:50 AM

I finished yesterday. I liked it a lot.

The ending after the credits where you had to survive as long as possible was neat, in my opinion. Now I'm going to have to finish the game on Legendary, because apparently there's a secret ending like there was in Halo 3.

Finished it.

Gay ending. I play through all of that, watch all my team mates die, only to get stuck in a yard and gang-raped by Elites? Fucking smarmy Halsey bitch.

Well...yeah. Reach does get fucked over so I kind of had it coming.

Twas fun to see Captain Keyes again, he looks good when not getting skullfucked by the Flood.

Hazel-Rah 09-18-2010 09:03 AM

Beat it on Legendary.

That game is phenomenal, my one complaint with it was not building enough on the hopelessness of the situation and how they were just like "The Covenant will never come here" then how they were like "Oh look it's the Covenant". Reach is like the Thermopylae of the Halo universe so that's why they had "That really gay ending where all the good guys died *cries* uuughh it's so unlike Anime!"

Also the sense of scale given in the cut scenes were still a bit deceiving, but they've been doing that since Halo 3, showing huge scale rendered battles then having the missions be nothing like what you've seen.

Best Halo ever, by far.

Daxter King 09-18-2010 09:13 AM

Rendered? What do you mean by that? Every Halo game has the cut scenes run in game, just like when you're playing.

Hazel-Rah 09-18-2010 09:17 AM

Yeah, so why can't we get those large scale battles in the actual gameplay?

Daxter King 09-18-2010 10:39 AM

To be honest, I wonder the same thing. Bungie made a big deal of having more AI at once, but I don't remember a battle that was larger than the big ones in Halo 3(The Ark level, and The Covenant level).

You don't watch much anime, huh?

Dixanadu 09-18-2010 02:02 PM

Can't remember which level it was, but you could see Scarabs, Wraiths and Scorpions fighting in the distance.

The feeling of hopelessness was shown in the level 'Exodus', when you're in the Falcon passenger seat and watch as Brutes tear the shit out of civilians.

@Hazel-Rah: Did you get the achievement where the Scorpion tank doesn't get destroyed? Shades fuck me off...

Ridg3 09-18-2010 02:05 PM

You're all dicks... I still haven't finished the fucking game, use spoiler tags.

Dynamithix 09-18-2010 02:18 PM

What Ridg3 said. You all ruin the experience for me, a person who might play it through at a friend's house!

Wings of Fire 09-18-2010 03:34 PM

OH NO THE STORY OF HALO IS FOREVER RUINED

Yep, "Tank Beats Everything" I beat it on Legendary with three other friends so it wasn't so bad, doing it alone is gonna be a bitch.

I didn't bother because Strike Witch already told everyone what was gonna happen, dude it's Reach what did you think was gonna happen?

Hey atleast some of the protagonists die in Halo and it's not like your precious Gundam Wing where all the protagonists walk out of the whole ordeal without sustaining a single loss.

Daxter King 09-18-2010 04:56 PM

Halo 1 spoiled Halo Reach for me.

Gundam Wing was the worst anime I've ever seen.

What stop did your analogy get off on?

Strike Witch 09-18-2010 06:13 PM

Jorge explodes, Kat gets sniped, Jun fucks off, Emile gets stabbed, The Captain crashes his pelican into a Scarab, and your character gets gang-raped by Elites.

Hazel-Rah 09-18-2010 06:32 PM

That's real big of you. All because I called out the thing that you and Wings love most and exposed it for the "Up it's own ass" piece of garbage that it is.

Every Gundam show I've seen is the exact same garbage "Lulz war is bad" how in the fuck is a show about giant robots that punch each other in space gonna go around trying to be some kind of Saving Private Ryan for kiddies? And the way they make the main charcters so god damned invincible is really just glorifying war more than anything.

Nobody ever said Halo is some great work of fiction, but there are people who enjoy the story so lay off haters.

Daxter King 09-18-2010 06:34 PM

Yeah, that was pretty cuntish of you Strike Witch.

Erm

I think there's only one thing here that's particularly up its own ass.

Gundams barely punch. They have guns.

Wings of Fire 09-18-2010 07:02 PM

I think he's probably talking about G Gundam actually.

I think we should call Lorne Lanning...

I AM NOT A WHORE, I'M NOT.

That's it, I'm giving you a NEGATIVE REPUTATION POINT, bitch.

Phylum 09-19-2010 01:22 AM

I really don't think she cares.

Dynamithix 09-19-2010 01:42 AM

She does. It will affect her life so dramatically that she will start a band called Mindmuffins.

Strike Witch 09-19-2010 02:23 AM

Wow, you're pretty good at saying meaningless things.

Dynamithix 09-19-2010 02:53 AM

Praise me, lovely.

I'm never attempting a meme again.

Well, not that one, anyway.

Daxter King 09-20-2010 04:52 PM

Another forum I go to tried to get a pic of a lot of us in the game, this is what ended up happening. (Im driving the warthog)



Different angle


Mr.Spandexpants 09-20-2010 10:24 PM

That was... Interesting

Hazel-Rah 09-22-2010 03:15 AM

lol fucking pro

Dixanadu 09-22-2010 03:47 AM

Haha. All that tea-bagging reminds me of a Team Sniper match me and my two friends were playing. 3v3, us against them. On Paradiso, in that room that goes through the central hill, I got seperated and jumped, all three of them were there and killed me. Then tea-bagged me all in unison while yelling.

We still won 23-14, the post-game lobby was full of jeers. It was enjoyable.

Hazel-Rah 09-22-2010 05:42 AM

My friends and I had a five way with Kat in the elevator, I was the one standing on her head.
