/hg/ Custom Edition game night when?

Sounds fun

Why always call it custom edition?

3 baby pls go

>Why always call it custom edition?
Please be bait

I started on first halo. It was called COMBAT EVOLVED.

Ok so it is bait then.
You had me worried.

Tomaru poster here, isn't me. Now that the /pol/acks have been BTFO, my job here is done.

Also you don't have to be jealous of Tomaru. Just love your family & you might end up like him one day.

so when are the members of gowg going to finally accept there game and gen is dead and come here?

Why would we want that?

We're xbone gen, we've always been xbone gen.

"no"

Remember Forza, user.

So there WAS only a single tomaru poster

Gotcha!

...

...

What are you trying t convey here?

SQUAWK

*heretical noises*

>go from being half bird/half man to being half raptor/half hedgehog
I want all of the writers and designers at 343 to be punished by having each of them locked in a room and writing a research essay on how the fuck a subspecies could be that diverse and what climate differences caused it. They're not allowed to leave until they all individually come up with the same reason.

What noise does a grunt make?

They mostly just scream, I guess?

I don't really mind their new armor/bodies

But the faces are fucked, they need beaks, that's what made them stand out. Now they're just generic lizard guys.

And I'm sick of 343's subspecies excuse. They are functionally just redesigns until both variants are represented within the same game.

>double-shielded jackal that runs across a battlefield and gives an overshield to an Elite commander if he reaches them in time
Y/N?

>let's take these bird-guys with feathers and beaks and just remove their beaks and feathers. Genius!

"thanks to you Arbiter, my kids can't get enough gas, or nipple! how does that make ya FEEEEEL?" - IWHBYD skull Halo 3 Grunt dialogue

Nothing I like more than discussing 343's art changes

Visuals are important

HCE/2 grunts were so cute. I miss the little bane-style mask they wore.

Halo 4 grunts are horrid, 5 improves them slightly by giving them Exoskeletons again, but their faces need a lot of work

I don't mind the new elites so much, just scale them down overall a bit so they don't have to hunch over so much. Bring back the old models alongside them as well, especially for Arbiter who is canonically one.

And for god's sake, give the Minors less retarded looking armor.

...

>H2A elites are probably the best in the series.

...

still shit

...

I enjoy Chief and blue team's designs, aside from how they don't have Codpieces. And Kelly's helmet is a little wonky.

The Arbiter's new armor is great, but him being changed to a new subspecies is not. Especially when you consider how the already had a model of his actual subspecies wearing the new armor (seen in the H2A locke cutscene)

The same applies to the Swords of Sanghelios, I don't know why they just re-colored Covenant Remant Minors when they could have used H2A campaign/Locke scene models for them, or if they wanted them to be the "new" species, the H2A MP models as seen here.

the one on the right has to be from 4 which was a shit game but you can't say 5 doesn't look better

Why does right look blurry or grainy?

I don't know, it's just halo 4's shitty "glowy bloom on everything and low res textures" style.

It was taken at 1080p in MCC.

>new Chief is pretty good, 3 is slightly better but I like the new design
>4's Cortana is the best in the series but 5's looks horendous
>new arbiter looks worse than the old one
1.5 / 3 isn't too bad

I can add 5 to the image quite easily if you like.

First though, Do I wear Mark VI gen1 or Gen2, and what map should the image be taken on?

Those 2 were taken on Valhalla/Ragnarok in the exact same position, but I don't want to use a forged map if I add a 5 comparison.

>4's Cortana is the best in the series

4 Cortana is good except for her buckteeth

Which you see quite often because she hangs her jaw open like a retard


And also the scene where she made multiple copies of herself and they all rose out of the floor then jumped towards the didact was pretty stupid looking

Friendly reminder to turn those clocks back an hour!

I'd say Gen 1 and doesn't 5 have a version of Vallhalla for BTB?
Admit it, in the first 3 she was kind of a jerk. In 4 she feels more like a human.

If I could be bothered to mess around in Blender I'd recreate the blue-coloured Prometheans. I need to dig around more in the H5F files and see if I can find the Warden model.

Currently working on improving my understanding of reflections and how to make visors look a little better.

>Admit it, in the first 3 she was kind of a jerk. In 4 she feels more like a human.
I thought you meant appearance. I still like her attitude better in other games.
I don't think her rampancy was written very well.

She was supposed to be snooty

They're pretty great but I got a bit of a problem with the overabundant teeth and feet

I always thought something more like

>343 Jackals are infantry i.e. shield carriers
>Old Jackals are Rangers and Snipers/Scouts

>chrome

343's Elites are actually more upright than any before them, but in every screen and render and shit they're always either carrying a sword or posing

Here's your (you), now get the fuck out.

Yeah there most definitely had to be a better way to conduct that scene.

Every fucking time I'm thinking "Tinker Bell's killing the Didact".

Someone else is gonna have to get Reach and Halo 2

Wouldnt really be that bad if it wasnt for that dumb ass shoulder.

I also meant her appearance but whatever I like the nicer version in 4

Halo 4 cortana is an uggo.

That's an unnecessarily big pic to list only two people

How long are you planning to keep this up for?

wizards is fine and lemmons is... tolerable

Brother

I'm hoping I'll find more of them soon

No leaf is "fine"

why is this games physics wonkier than h2 vista

>Nevada is now out of reach for Trump due to early voting reaults.
Sims taking NH won't be enough now.
He would need to flip a bigger state. Fuck.

He also needs to hold Florida and he's down there as well.

How is /pol/ taking the news?

>How is /pol/ taking the news?
I haven't checked. I don't want to be depressed.

He doesn't need NV

Happy fourth Birthday Halo 4! We love you! :)

...

>No fucked up middle finger
What a waste

How many time do you need to be told that Early Voting Results are actually bullshit?
>more Dems are voting
>surely all registered democrats would vote Hillary!

A wise man once described it as a giant metal turd sliding out of a giant metal anus

...

Anyone wish that Chief violently tackled and rapes palmer with his cyborg peen when she says he is short haha

just for funs haheheh

>implying people want to learn that

...

no but I think it would be funny if gravemind in halo 2 pulls down master chief and arbiters pant's and then uses his tentacles to make them kiss and puts tentacles in their butts hahahaha

As a prank hahaha

You know, just as a funny thing haha

Hehe

Or... Or... Get this... What if Master Chief fucked Sarah Palmer because she ordered him to as commander of the Spartan branch, but Captain Del Rio secretly hid in the closet and wanked his wrinkly wiener, you know, like just as a bit of a goof, haha.
Do you think Master Chief would look embarrassed when he finds out? haha.

Why doesn't Halsey have a robot arm?

It would be kind of silly if both people to canonically have robot arms were named Catherine.

...

It'd be a nice bit of irony

Kindly jump into a frozen lake and end your life

Thx.

Say that to my face faggot, I've got the blood of the cree, I'll cast some crazy injun voodoo on you or some shit.
