/hg/ picture day when

We could use this beautiful map we forged or makena better one

I was going to make a set-piece later tonight, if anybody wanted to help with that.

I'm guessing the Spartan Company has changed since launch? I have a bunch of people on my friendslist from there and literally none of them are playing Halo 5.

I want to help for sure

I'm not the greatest at forge, but I'm not terrible by any means

>Flash ends in a cliffhanger for Flashpoint
Any idea when we'll have warzone going? I have some work to do for a bit, then I'll be there.

>once you join a Spartan company you are only allowed to play halo 5

We've played halo every night or so for the past 2 weeks. I think many people are getting a bit tired of it.

Doesn't help that the next update doesn't include any new maps or modes.

What's your GT? I'm pretty decent at Forge.

I'm not saying they're in the company. It's just that I added them from the company at launch. Guess it explains why whenever I play this game, zero people are on. I guess those are the ones who dropped early.

How do you mean zero people are on

Where do you see that? From the friends list? Or the Spartan company list? Because the company list is broken

What time, user? I'm East Coast US, I could be ready in an hour.

Alrighty, the help will be nice. I'll post when I start.

Friendslist. I'm looking at the company list right now and I'm seeing that none of them are in there anymore. I've been playing months thinking everyone dropped.

On that note, I keep seeing that googledoc I made way back being posted. It's pretty useless now so it really should be gotten rid of OPs.

>all these people that want to help
I'll start in maybe an hour or two

Are we gonna play some more MCC together? BTB and action sack?

I'll help, do you have an idea of what it'll look like?

>It's pretty useless now so it really should be gotten rid of OPs.

no

Yeah, let's think of a theme first. Last time we just threw together something, but if we want it to look good we've gotta have a theme.

And an area that overlooks the place and will fit enough players for the screenshot.

How many players can Customs support? We may need to do two shots to support all of the Company's active members.

Futuristic apartment building, but the inside and maybe a courtyard. Think the New Mobasa buildings in ODST, and those little courtyards where you find Engineers.

I want to help as well, you know i never talk, but i have some experience with Forge.

...

It'll just make confusion at this point.

Forge can support up to 8

A futuristic apartment could be cool

14

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Cawfee with a side of no bully

I WILL END YOU

First we've gotta decide on the canvas.

Glacier
Alpine
Parralax
Outside of fathom
Outside of riptide
Outside of Stasis
Outside of Tyrant
Outside of truth (I love this one, everything turns shiny)

(The arena canvases look nice, but the areas are a bit smaller. Still quite large on the outside.)

I vote for either Noon Alpine or Ascendance Parallax

The rainbow disco-vehicles outside of truth are great

Forge aside, we'll need to host the map in Customs for player colours to show up.

Really? I thought it used to be 16.

I vote for Ascendance or night-time Glacier

Aesthetic neon palace

>that floating cube
That's a great excuse to just have geometry out there. If we had race, someone should remake the final level of F-Zero GX's campaign. There is a way to make a 3-lap strongholds work, but it'd be a little tough.

Or it could just be one lap because /hg/ would just clog up the raceway when they start to lose the race.

Night-time maps are fine if you have the lighting set up properly. From a photography standpoint we're going to need something that doesn't interfere with player colours too much, or make it too difficult to see what's going on.

The Diamond Cup version of the track was very wide.

How about outside of Stasis?

I think Halo 5 gungoose may be most fun vehicle in halo game.

Basically the same as glacier, just smaller. Unless you find a really good way to use the wreckage in the background

What about the chopper, which was a gungoose with better controls, a thruster, and a saw blade on the front?

I like the Phaeton the most.

Phaeton Helios is great

Normal Phaeton is meh

I find the ohk grenades much more satisfying to use than chopper/ghost style gun.

I think it's kind of boring, just floating around. Boost is neat though.

Most of the canvas maps are fine as they go for colour purposes - they're fairly neutral. Plus, if we're building on them the base map doesn't matter too much, more than the geometry we add to them.

>it's an everyone else is playing DaS3 episode but I'm too oppressed to afford it

Yeah, just saying it depends on how big we plan on building the thing.

episode

Get a nice /hg/ user to gameshare with you.

>it's a thiccer episode

Maybe. I'm very skeptical of giving out my info though.

I've got halo 5, MCC+ODST, Witcher 3, rocket league, Ori, and Das1 digital. And a bunch of other random shit.

Thicker

What info do you give out for game share?

Account email and password

So yeah. You have to really trust the person.

>giving that to /hg/ user
wew

To get games you just have to have their password, you don't have to give out anything unless you want to reciprocate.
All you have to do is offer up your butt.

Well I mean, otherwise you're just leeching. At least offering something in return makes you more trustworthy with their pass.

Wouldn't that mean /hg/ user really likes you, then?

Well, whatever people like is cool.

I'll be on H5 derping about until people decide to turn up.

Are we gonna make this map or what

Who's hosting? Niggmund?

Might want to clean that up a bit, user

Ayy Lmao

I didn't make it.

Yep, 30 minutes. Having fun ganking with Tobin.

Yield The Ghost was a mistake - Kai and Friends 2016

Fuck off you doxxing faggot

...

>Posting sub-species

What a stupid fucking duke

>austrian karelia

>quit one match
>21 minute ban

What the fuck is up with this? I quit like three last week and got banned then. Don't tell me this trash stacks.

Yeah, it stacks and never lowers

>never lowers

It's even worse when you consider that 343's dedicated servers are shit.

It lowers.

>32 minutes ago

REEEEEE!!! SIGMUND!!!!! REEEE!!

Starting now, so join on me

At least try to be original

But I don't even play halo

I'll be original if you give me a cup of cawfee

It does lower. A few weeks ago I got banned for too many accidental betrayals across several Grifball matches.

Today I got 2 or 3 betrayals in one match without consequence.

Everyone come join sigmund if you wanted to forge the Picture day map

Fuck off, she's apart of my ego that I'm trying to spread on to /hg/ culture dumb slutâ„¢

Reminder to kill marine scum.

Thank god, because I'm up to two hours in arena now

Sigmund is a retard

What are you making?

Set-piece for picture day

Now we just need to schedule it

>no control scheme with thruster and jump binded to bumpers

>no forge monitor control scheme with up/down movement on the bumpers just like every previous game

Just make it with control map app.

I wish we could make our own control schemes

which one are you, /hg/?

Kallie tbqh

Xbox Accessories lets you.

A mix of Nobby Slicks and Emily, sadly

Weekend plz

This is not a very good picture day map
