Post YFW

Sound like Flavor of the month until Halo War 2 Awakening

Can someone else continue the map vote since votefag is dead

his last post was over a week ago

>tfw no Halo 5: Master Chief & Friends Superstars Adventures in Dreamland

GG Blues. Honestly didn't anticipate that outcome. Basketball and Breakout were huge surprises.

I think most of the issues that came up last time were avoided, so I'd consider the night a success. My only regret is that we didn't last long enough to get to the 1v1s.
It sounds like moving forward there is going to be more group involvement on the maps that get chosen, and that's fine.

Halo 5 was about Locke

Halo 3 lobby up.

Never let Sigmund pick maps again.

Fuck memes and fuck you

Playing my "first " Halo 3 since I was 17 or so in high school.

>Legit first map is snow bound lol

VETO VETO VETO

Went 11-11. It feels so fucking odd. I think I died twice due to just fucking up on buttons.

>FriskyNoodle joins
>immediately dies
>quits

lmao sorry man, I wanted to do matchmaking

...

>mfw got that fucking The Storm skull in spite of the "I'M HELPING :D" marine douchebags blowing up the AA wraith
Also, I forgot how GOAT this campaign is, like I just now was aggressively reminded that pure flood forms are a thing

>tfw no ringworld videogame

FriskyNoodle is a cool dude

Thank fucking God Halo 3 is back. I like Halo again guys. These good Halo feels are finally back.

Finally I can associate fun with Halo again.

Hold me.

Fucking kek

halowaypoint.com/en-us/spartan-companies/equipo de asalto rojo

fucking deny all peruvian cunts

Whatever man, it's all good to me. I just can't stand Halo 5. Can't fucking do it.

...

Hate to sound lame but why is Halo3 feel so clunky and stiff? The BR seems weird. Aiming it feels off. Most guns just feel odd. Again it feels stiff and clunky.

Why

30 frames

Get used to it because in the Halo 5 TU the game is made to play more like Halo 3

>goal is to unlock achilles
>only have 5 people in company

Is this you posting?

>How many layers is /hg/ arena

Next poll (3/5) will drop around an hour from now!

strawpoll.me/13986324

VOTE!!!!

Fish bakes and consumes his delicious Italian cuisine, meanwhile his allies are being raped in the street.

Just searched his gt

Damn that looks good

Nah I feel the same. Halo 2 BR feels smoother

It's the spread + 30fps

Spread is fine in 60 fps (Halo 5 TU)
No spread is fine in 30 fps (Halo 2)
No spread is not fine in 60 fps (Halo 5 vanilla)
Spread is not fine in 30 fps (Halo 3)

This is why AR starts > BR starts in Halo 3

You know what I actually think I agree with all of that

This. Halo 3 in MCC would have felt better because of this, but unfortuunately it had bad hit detection.

I fucking love the Halo 5 TU
The better player actually wins the BR battle like every tikme now instead of the player that gets hit first.

What comes to mind when you see this?

So 343 did something right? Fuck off 343 sucks and Halo 5 blows!

...

Loss
Defeat
Rigging
Anger
Cucks
Sweat (like the guy, sweaty towels. he's cute)
RED
Sadness
And, ultimately, I feel disgust.

Losers

90% bread. Very unprofessional.
t. baker

I want revenge.

Halofest IV when?

Never.

Needs a bottle of a\lcohol in red teams hands

You must be pretty insecure about yourself if you took the time to create this, it really just shows how autistic you are Sigmund.

Not until after the 2v2 tournament, which probably won't even begin to be set up for at least another week or so.

Until then, you're stuck as the virgin reds.

>tfw now Skylor can shitpost about things more
You're welcome, Skylor

Hopefully Sigmund doesn't pick the maps next time.
I didn't know that the matchmaking maps actually WERE the better maps of the fanbase.

Tbh, someone from Red Team made a similar thing after HF II. Was funny then, and this is funny now.
t. red team member

>complaining
No, you don't get to.
You had one month to check them and practice/lodge complaints.

I did, though.

Can Red back this claim up?

What did they mean by this?

Anyone who is late should be barred.

That the tournament didn't count and nobody lost.
Do-over tomorrow.

It was merely a ploy to make Red Team think they were insecure about their chances to win, when in reality the blues knew from the start that their morale and sportsmanship would win the day.
desu, i almost feel bad for the Reds. Giving them a couple wins so they'd have false hope was kind of mean.

Skylor was even nice enough to even drop out for half the slayer match to make it fair

...

But really that last map was fucking awful. How am I supposed to guard my flag when I'm spawning in the OTHER TEAM'S BASE?

>only got 5 kills
>joined at most a quarter into the game
yep, lost a real vital part of the team right there

>guarding flag when you don't need it at base to cap
Should've just blitzed desu

He was gone for CTF as well, but STILL managed to get MVP for his (winning) team.

I realize that now, but holy fuck.
I admit to not looking at the maps beforehand so I have no excuse but I sure as hell will next time.

They were all pretty awful.

>Breakout map that you can get kills at less than a second in

>Spawntrap's Rift
>50:50 Chance of Spawning In The Other Team's Base
Curious to see how bad the 1v1 map was going to be.

>tfw the vanilla map ended up being the best map out of this fest
Man, I almost want to take back everything I've said about Forge maps in BTB. I mean, I won't, but I almost want to.

They don't seem as bad now. In comparison, that is.

...

Deadlock in Hal 5 was never good, old news.
Basketball was fun desu
That one certainly could have been better but ground pounding (teammates) was kino, as well as the hydra.
Splatoon? It was definitely too open though, and had some weird framerate when you looked crossmap.
Snipers is shit anyways, so is league. Shouldn't be surprising.
That one was fun, fuck off.

If you really care about those things maybe you should have filed a complaint in advance, you've had a month to do so.

I warned people about the last two a week or so ago. But I'm not in the discord, so I guess nobody read my complaints.
I'll say it again. A flat plain isn't great for snipers, and the other is too small for big team.

>They were all pretty awful.
I wouldn't go that far
>Everyone hates Deadlock at this point
Speak for yourself. I'm fine with it and tyhought it was pretty good as a starting slayer map.
>Everyone hates basketball
This time was definitely worse than the first time and I think It's because the ball took too long to spawn, but even then I don't "hate" it.
>Breakout map that you can get kills at less than a second in
I unironically really liked the layout of the breakout map. Actually if anything I would say the only thing that should be changed is making the teams jump over the whole map. Change it so that you start behind the base like every other breakout map and it would be fine.
>Splatoon 5: Sightline Guardians
Yeah there was a serious lack of walls. Whoever got the sniper dictated the flow of the game. I agree with you on this one.
>Spawntrap's Rift
But not on this one. Git fucking gud.
>50:50 Chance of Spawning In The Other Team's Base
Kek. Agreed

So I guess I really only thought strongholds and CTF were bad. And even them strongholds was hella close.

>But not on this one. Git fucking gud.
There was a point where red team was trapped spawning in a corner being repeatedly shot for about 20 kills. That's a bad map.

>I unironically really liked the layout of the breakout map. Actually if anything I would say the only thing that should be changed is making the teams jump over the whole map. Change it so that you start behind the base like every other breakout map and it would be fine.
This so much. Someone should get on that. I'd like to play it again without that Ground Pound exploit

Yeah that was bullshit. I knew it was going to suck when I saw the anime

>the actually wanted Red team to win the CTF so we could go into 1v1s
The idea of the whole team watching one guy at a time and giving them advice/criticizing them sounds great. Maybe next time.
