/hg/ - Halo General

That's a fine lookin cloak, chief

So whats the edition?

>So whats the edition?
I put forward the motion to have it be "Alone, Unwanted, and Forgotten" edition.

That's what I think of when I look at myse- er, I mean Chief in the OP pic.

Kek
I'll second that

Works for me

Punished Dog is my favorite /hg/ user

reminder that /hg/ has never actually died since Veeky Forums became a thing and that we're on thread #650+ not #350

Imagine if they had a req crate with only cosmetics.

Alright

...

What if we went back to the credit system?

>we're on thread #650+ not #350
My whole life has been a lie...

The numbering only counts for the current iteration of /hg/, AKA /hg/ 3.0

Good morning, /hg/

Good AFTERNOON, user

Hey if we're doing that fuck the crates like I said, bring back classic unlocks like h3

>tfw could've saved /hg/ but overslept today only since I was playing Halo last night

>unlocks are based on your skill and achievements rather than baseless RNG
>the rare armour becomes sought after and only the best of the best have it
glorious! remember RECON?

Chances of the artstyle changing?

You're banned from Halofest

...

>Chances of the artstyle changing?
40%

>tfw after you've completed all the vid masters and clicked the unlock button on bungie.net

>tfw you got it when 343 gave it away for free after they took over the H3 servers

>Extras List: Unknown Kai

Desclaimer: these teams are subject to revision based on but not limited to additional people attending or confirmed members spontainously dropping out.

Official Start Time: Saturday, September 23
2 PM Pacific
5 PM Eastern
10 PM England

List of events/maps used:
>#1. TEAM SLAYER
Map: Deadlock
Starts: AR/Magnum
Score to win: 100 kills
Notes: This is the only map we will be using that is also used in the Big Team Battle playlist. The wasps have been removed and replaced with Rally Scout hogs.

>#2. BASKETBALL
Map: Basketball
Starts: Magnum
Score to win: 10
Notes: You will have to let me know if you want sprint off or on. As of now it's on. Also, the time limit will be increased to 30 minutes in order to lessen the possibility of one team running out the clock.

>#3. BREAKOUT
Map: Sinbad
Starts: SMG/Magnum
Score to win: First to 10 wins
Notes: This is vanilla breakout. No shields, no shotty starts, and you carry the flag to your opponent's base to score (I double checked).

>#4. STRONGHOLDS
Map: Splashdown
Starts: AR/Magnum
Score to win: 200 points
Notes: anime titties

>#5. TEAM SNIPERS
Map: Summoner's Rift
Starts: Sniper Rifle
Score to win: 100 kills
Notes: This is the only map that is still undergoing some potential R&D. The map is in a working and playable state, but we may add some power weapon spawns on a fixed timer. Don't let that discourage you from testing it out. And no, I've never played League of Legends.

>#6. CAPTURE THE FLAG
Map: 50:50
Starts: AR/Magnum
Score to win: 5 captures
Notes: That's right I said 5 (five). The map is big enough for 16 people but the actual distance between the bases is not very far. The time limit will be set to 30 minutes.

>#7. 1v1 OVERTIME
Map: Contract
Starts: AR/Magnum
Score to win match: 10 kills
Score to win event: 3 match wins
Notes: If it comes down to it, the night will be decided by a slew of 1v1s. I'll post more detailed instructions later, but basically It's best 3 out of 5. No player per team can play twice.

>How to Download the maps:
1. Launch Halo 5
2. Select Custom Game
3. Select Custtom Search
4. Check off both maps and game modes (the basketball game mode is included)
5. Add the tag "halofest3"
6. Search
All 7 maps should appear. You will know they arte the right ones if they have "(HF III)" in the title. It is very important that you download the correct maps with this title as they have been specifically tailored to play in the Halofest.

>tfw Red Team wins with Wall on the team

Red team has too much dead weight on it this time. They might win basketball and maybe breakout. They won't last until overtime.

t. Bystander

...

>afterwards they released halo 4

It's felt like 343 was playing a prank when that game released.

The teams should be remixed after every tournament for less concentrated salt.

t. Bystander

And they have been

3 of the 5 people on Red team were not on Red team last time. If Kai plays it will be half the team

>being this easily punked
Do you give homeless people cash every time they approach you on the street too?

I unironically always give homeless vets a dollar when I see them

>"""vets"""

A lot of them actually are legit

>numbering threads
sorry i'm not a faggot.

>sorry I'm not a faggot
I'll be the judge of that
Post GT

Smoogloog82

There is no point numbering the threads. /hg/ will go on until there is no Halo games anymore which is not happening anytime soon. The thread died? Just make another one.

Then if you make one, don't put the number in the OP if it bothers you that much. Numbering will continue regardless.

I don't think you heard me. Post GT so I can find out if you suck dicks or not

Agreed. If I make one, I'll put the number there too, but either way numberfag will get it covered in the thread.

It doesn't bother me, i'm indifferent about this.

Real Talk

Why was noble team so incompitant?

>whines that people need to put numbers in the OP
>but tries to say it isn't a big deal and that it will continue regardless
If your autism were not in jeopardy, you wouldn't be posting.

Noble Team was an OC team of SIIIs made up by bungie just so they could die.
Their entire concept is just to exist for forced drama.

>whines that people need to put numbers in the OP
I'm not Calm the fuck down, user.

>in jeapordy
?

>Why was noble team so incompitant?
Without Noble, humanity would have lost the war.
Show some respect.

because they are born in europoor. kek

Europe has been a better place to live for those making above the equivalent of $80k a year for over a decade now

...

>trans
Is this BR confused about It's self-identification?

Yes, it wants to transition into a tundra BR

Does that skin make it a trans-semi-nigger?

...

*blocks your path*

No, this one does

Fuck off, steampunk is great

>steampunk is great

Yeah maybe if you're 12

**blocks YOUR path**

Jokes on you I sold my xbone. Can you give me a quick rundown of what they did.

I love how it's now easier to get a kill with the boltshot than it is with the BR

Not even meming, I actually love it

Video guy here. Looking for some /hg/-related images to include. Anything is fair game.

this is what the amerifat believe kek

The Battle Rifle has been given a spread, meaning It's shots don't automatically all land where you shoot. It's much harder to land all three shots on an enemy if they arfe trying to dodge. As a result, perfect kills are significantly less common. Basically, it feels more like the H3 BR and less like the H2 BR.

Auto spread has also been also been greatly expanded. The AR especially becomes extremely inaccurate if you hold down the trigger, making it extremely inaccurate if you "spray and pray"

Lunging appears to have been shortened a bit.

The railgun now takes twice as long to fire.

Sniper Rifle magnetism has been decreased.

There are a few other changes but those are the significant ones. THE end result is that the average TTK has been increased. Not gonna lie, I love it.

Agreed.
TU halo 5 might be my favorite Halo multiplayer.

Can you download the TU settings for custom games?

>custom games
>TU Halo 5 for Halofest

The losing team would bitch too much

...

The losing team is going to bitch regardless

Oboi. Webm time.

>Webm time
If you insist

We made up for it later.
It's always difficult to play objective games with only half the team in party
