I'm thinking about making an edit to /hg/ Island, with multiple weapons placed in the map in case someone wants to pose with a specific weapon. Also i'll try to place reference points or something like that to place camera in the right place for multiple shots, like a rail with markings i guess. I don't know how to edit images so i guess that's the least i can do to help and it would be nice if someone else could edit me in the photo later on.
Sebastian Torres
There will for sure be people that can't make it, myself included, so we will host another photo shoot to put the two together or something
Can you post a link to download hg island?

Basically there's hexagons all throughout the Halo series, and they've become even more noticable after 343 got the reigns. Apparently this triggers some people.
Camden Rivera
We've gotta make an area for people to stand on as well. I was thinking something extremely simple, just a few blocks on different heights and different colors
Aiden Edwards

The artstyle pre and post 343. Hexagons used to be exclusive to Covenant, and some Forerunner which Covenant tech was made from, stuff. But when 343 took over, it was shoved into literally everything, even the 343 logo when you boot up the game. Some people go "b-but the bubble shield had it in 3" and forget that the bubble shield was brute tech, and other whine that "human shields had them" when they forget that human shields were stolen covenant tech.

Is the opening cutscenes to halo 2 some of the best in video games? Straight kino
>them parallel viewpoints between chief and arbiter >great writing >foreshadowing
Nicholas Jenkins
>Eden and Empire play completely differently Objectively false. The rocket is even almost in the same place.
William Diaz
Except that he asked for the answer and got it.
Kevin Cruz
>"Historically, the ‘dissipative’-style deployable shield system of the bubble shield is Forerunner in origin. Warrior-Servants utilized such a system to generate temporary fortifications using a sphere of interlocking hexagonal force enfolder elements, similar to those used by Sentinels and Protectors. The technology was eventually discovered by ONI in the twenty-sixth century and was repurposed for use by the UNSC Armed Forces in the Human-Covenant War."
Joshua James
Ok
Lincoln Smith

Isaiah Hall
So, exactly what I said? Covenant tech based off of Forerunner tech, then stolen by humans?
Justin Brown
Bubble shield is human tech used by Brutes. Brutes are known to use human technology. Such as the shotgun Brutes in Halo 2 and the Banished in Halo Wars.
Jose Turner
I disagree, m8, I thought the Forerunner trilogy did an excellent job characterizing the Forerunners as well as both introducing the Precursors and revitalizing the Flood as an entity to be utterly feared.
I don't see anything wrong with providing explanations or expanding upon elements as long as it's done well. Someone playing through the games in order will still feel the same awe and fear toward the Forerunners and Flood.
Daniel Butler
Halo 2 is not even in my top 3 of favorite Halo campaigns but yeah i agree, it's plot and narrative can't be compared with any other game in the series. I still can't believe they dropped the ball so hard in 3.
More like both Humans and the Covenant found the Forerunner tech and inherited the mantle of the hexagons.
Angel Martin

Jason Hall
>I still can't believe they dropped the ball so hard in 3.
This triggers the /hg/
Owen Sanders
Wrong, brute tech is made with pure brute engineering.
Cameron Diaz
>This triggers the /hg/ Nope. 3 is so anti Halo 3 babby that they're actually a bit too 343 appologist.
Jack Richardson
Don't get me wrong, i was talking in terms of story/plot. From a gameplay perspective, 3 is my second favorite campaign.
Landon Watson

Swap 5 with Reach and it's spot on.
Elijah Bell
What was wrong with 3?
Evan Martinez
I meant 4 or 5. Sorry
>Swap 5 with Reach and it's spot on. Yeah, no.
Chase Martin
>5 better than Reach Nope
Isaac Cruz
I know but that's usually what triggers people, critique of the campaign.

Gameplay-wise I'd say so. No AAs or lack of bleedthrough and whatnot, at least.

Le 'to war' meme
Also the 'boss' at the end
Not realising that all halo games should end with a hog run otherwise they're shit.
Minor parts anyways. The levels were flawless in what they set out to accomplish.

Say, what ever happened to the Shipmaster? The white armored elite from 2/3. And why did the elite's have such a drastic armor change in between 3 and 4?
Parker Long
343i After what happened to Alpha Nine and Cortana, it's best if old characterizations are left alone
Caleb Wood
Alpha Nine? And I'm not looking to have them included, but you can't just say there's a new shipmaster with 0 explanation and have the elites change their design so drastically, it makes no sense.
Christopher Hernandez
Dead. Hexagons.
Evan Mitchell
Alpha nine is the squad of ODST
And 343 changes shit all the time for no reason. They are the biggest retards when it comes to the lore
Blake Lopez
They didn't, the Covenant remnant use a different combat harness.
Landon Richardson
>Say, what ever happened to the Shipmaster? The white armored elite from 2/3. He's the protagonist of a recent book, i think he's alright.
>And why did the elite's have such a drastic armor change in between 3 and 4? Real reason: change of art style Canon reason: different faction
