/hg/ - Halo General

How does this make you feel?

What are covenant AIs like? Are they shitty?

Do you mean gameplay AI or lore AI?

The lore AI.

It makes me hype.
I want to see what Prometheans can do, especially since they'll be less boring in an RTS setting.

>The Covenant's knowledge in the field of AI technology is notably inferior to that of the UNSC and the Forerunners. The AIs used by the Covenant are comparable to human "dumb" AIs, as they are non-sentient and are only designed to perform a certain task; for example, their starship AIs have no function beyond the piloting and navigation of their ships. So far, only two types of Covenant AIs (security and naval) have ever been encountered by the UNSC. Upon dissecting a Covenant AI aboard the Ascendant Justice, Cortana theorized that it may have been based on captured UNSC technology, altered to fit within their theocratic society.

>The Covenant's limited use and understanding of AIs stems from their beliefs. In Covenant mythology, it was a form of self-aware AI, referred to as an associated intelligence, that led to the demise of the great Forerunner civilization by defecting to their enemies, the Flood. As a result, the San'Shyuum imposed a ban on this sort of technology under the penalty of death. While less sophisticated AIs were allowed, machines that could actually "think" were prohibited.

tl;dr: The Covenant were actually smart when making their AI and actually made them dumb so they wouldn't turn on them (see rampant Cortana/Mendicant bias).

HALO WARS 2 WHEN

February 17, 2017

Thank you. I hope it turns out better than the first one.

Looks like it, at least from the beta.
They're also taking player feedback, which is nice.

Isn't navigation the only thing they use them for?

Yeah, it's all a dumb ai is good for

Just cleaned my room and the Xbox One power brick was the biggest fucking culprit of dust bunnies. The thing was covered. Have you cleaned yet /hg/?

I have fans going constantly, so dust can't really settle anywhere obvious

Looking for anyone that wants to speed run halo 2 or 4.
Also looking for a general MCC lobby. Message Pathogenicity and I'll invite

Unless you have four fans pointing at all dimensions of your Xbox. You're going to have dust buildup on the dimensions of the Xbox that has no fan pointing at it

I'd be down for it later today, maybe.
Depends on whether I end up having to go out today.

Surely 343 focuses on the casual player base for Halo 6 right?

>Keep spawning with BR's and carbines and boltshots in super fiesta

FUCK OFF FOR FUCKS SAKE

Come to hg to find someone to play with
>no one will actually play with me
>but they will have a six hour discussion with me over the lore of halo.
It's like the world is telling me to be a serial killer

After realizing that MLG rakes in zero cash?
Probably.

Need help with the no pain no gain achievement. Apparently you have to beat a level with all skulls on. Also general achievement hunting on MCC. Pathogenicity is my gt

>I have no social skills
>better kill people

>no pain no gain

I'm up for helping and all but fuck LASO

>tfw enjoy randoms more than anons

Please help. Because fuck my life doing this. Even on normal.

Just follow some walkthrough online.

B-but halo buddies.

Halo buddies lead to pain and sorrow.

Not having halo buddies is what made Elliot do what he did

I thought Elliot just wanted the puss puss.

It was really because he just wanted a halo buddy.
Prevent Elliot's by always playing with your fellow /hg/ user

But that would delay the beta uprising

You need social skills to co-ordinate an uprising.

Halo 5 still up there

It beat todds game truly we are the halo 5 guardians.

To be fair, Todd's game is split into two for no fucking reason, like how there are two Overwatches, because one is Origins Edition and one is Regular.

>people will still argue destiny is worse than halo 5
lul just lul

Remember, it's ok when Bungie does it.

Some of you guys are alright.

Don't play halo tomorrow.

Wasn't planning on it.

>half a star less
I guess it actually is :^)

Source? These are great

DELETE THIS

I don't know, they just kinda float around

...

Daily reminder that sigmund is a two faced bitch who will fuck you over.

lol shut up, hes my baby boii, desu

I still miss Johnson.
Palmer isn't much of a replacement.

Get online. Shit was cash last night.
Moar
Mfw Legendary with iron + thunderstorm skull isn't that hard on H4

lol no I only play with sigmund

Kek I played with you last night fuckboi. Get on.

who are you?

We did iron skull on legendary. I drove you.
Pathogenicity ? You were drunk last night.

lol yeah sorry you were kinda annoying, ill pass.

Going to start up a WZFF lobby. Feel free to join.

Kekkkk. I didn't even have a mic.
Not sure if you're trolling or not 7 fish

deacon pipap on raid on apex 7 is a goddamn nightmare

yeah, but you still sucked at the game and were annoying to play with, move on kiddo, lmao'ing at your life.

>Bias might come back

I now know 100% that you're not 7 fish.
He died 10 times more than me. Was apologizing everytime. Was totally chill and fun to play with.
Kekking at the fact we can't use trips to avoid the shenengans. I'll wait till 7 fish is on xbone

fuck off kiddo, i and sigmund will cut you

pic related, me

>can't identify false-flag shitposting

lol yeah what a newfag

hownew.ru

Exactly fuckboi.
7 fish I'm pretty sure he was Canadian because he apologized to me when I ran him over with the tank accidentally.
He's not a fuckboi. He's Canadian.
And if you are 7 fish and you have bipolar disorder or short term memory loss then that would explain why I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. Pic related

Ps. If you message me on xbone confirming what your sentiments here and I will pledge me allegence to sigmund as I set myself on fire

do you have autism?

At the time I posted that no. I just came here within the week. I am new.
But as you can see I called it out before you two called newfag

dont talk to me ever again, newboi. Otherwise I have to show you who the boss of /hg/ is.

Why is every board the same. It can't possibly be inhabited by the same people.
I just want to play halooooo

If there's a post with a GT and it's not a post about joining or looking for a game, it's probably not them.

Is it wrong to say I actually kinda unironically sort of missed him?

>implying

>somebody is so buttblasted that they have to falseflag
Why even stay?
Is it autism?

(You)

>gets buttblasted because he gets falseflagged as

>tired of constant shitposting
>must be the guy!
Fuck off

Halo

Posted a couple days ago and told you guys I was Silver 5. I am now currently Gold 2

Am I progressing at a decent speed? What's an "above average" rank in Halo 5? Tips on not being a shitter in Swat?

Above average is diamond. Gold is shit, and I'm tempted to call you a liar for being silver.

>Not Halo 4

Shit taste detected

Wait until next season starts then get with a group of good players and win every single match

That's the only viable way to escape the shitty rank system unless you enjoy hundreds of matches of grinding

Here are some rank distributions for the playlists.

Wow, I am middle of the road average.

Swats probably easiest playlist to rank up solo in.

SURRENDER THAT AI

>Protect the forerunner cores

oh for fuck's sake

>Tips on not being a shitter in Swat?
aim better desu

Anyone want to help me either speed run any halo 2 or 4 levels

Get the scarab gun/soccer balll

Beat any level with LASO

Doing this now and looking for at least one person

4 had better modding potential.

Aim gud and spartan charge
