>why won't the devs listen to me!
The devs are the only reason you have a job, you fucking prick

The problem I see with the current Halo community is the YouTubers saying "we don't want a game built on one-stroke ideas" Well guess what, I've entertained more children with shit everyone already knew more than you have watched YouTube in your entire life. Halo should be opinionated and one-stroke as possible. People who can actually see the nuance in Halo go play a game that actually takes itself seriously.

Degenerates like Tom belong on a cross

ummmmm backoff???????????

Not Halo

real life picture of backup when he realised someone else had power over him

That meme is old and boring. Be more creative.

Dumb halo poster

It isn't necessary to stream it right? My internet isn't the best. anyways I'm ready when you are

I gotta let my controller charge for another 20, See you then.

Jesus christ

We were halfway done when the game froze...

something tells me this is gonna be a pain in the ass

...

After a 3rd failed network connection, Flippant Sol has conceded his secret santa challenge.

how do you save your own Twitch live streams as videos?

can you do the same on Mixer?

I thought twitch streams auto saved since a lot of channels let you watch the last broadcast

A 2nd attempt will be made on Friday.

?

Talk to Red. He will organize a Reach level

I don't own Reach. If I ever buy Reach, I'm getting the fucking statue.

so did I, but I streamed secret santa last night and it hasn't saved it. I can't see an option in the settings. it's there in screenshots on google, but not in my settings.

That's a lot of /hg/ user messages you got there
>ywn be as popular as PD

Spankmaster Rok I'm ready

clearly you were playing a mission and then were gonna shoop the final screen.

Spankmaster Rok more like Spankmaster COCK

>pubg run better than MCC despite being in early access
How did they do it?

>pubg run

Enjoy the 14 FPS for your shitty meme game

already thought of that. you can't fake screenshots taken with the xbox one OS.
either upload them to the cloud or send them in a msg for proof.

run at native 4k30fps on the X. It's only bad at the landing & on the plane

yeah you can, upload them to xbox live, download them on your PC through the xbox app, shoop them, upload them back to Xbox live and then boom

hmm, thanks for that info. I'll look into it.
I know a site that tags them as where they came from, so maybe it will tag them differently.

Is Reds audio massively glitching for anyone else?

yeah, I just loaded it up. it's fucked.

A lot of games this year was a meme game. I'm waiting for SOT next year

anyone good who still plays halo 3 add me

my gamertag is Controller

Nice GT

LOL! Your GT sucks!

Your GT is ok by the Xbox Live terms of service.

>my gamertag is Controller

What went wrong?

?

Who was watching my stream?

forgot the pic

...

Meh, some things are better now.

I don't get it. Is it about bungie or halo5?

Bungie weren't the most fun and funniest developers in the 1990's because it was the 1990's, it was because they were BUNGiE.
Slowly, they became less fun over time, starting with Halo, where they always stressed themselves out and tried to elevate their self image to the professional standards of Microsoft. They went from Greg writing the bugs list on the back of a cardboard pizza box to Luke Smith's soylent and Humor=Nathan Fillion. They went from Veeky Forums to Reddit.

It's about Bungie and Destiny.

The next episode of Arby n' the Chief is on in 20 minutes: youtube.com/watch?v=7BytSW22DSI&feature=push-lbss&attr_tag=CFiu9YnKMrkXzH7e-6

That hot garbage is still going on? Pass.

Nice

>arby n the chief
>hot garbage

I wonder what will happen to bungie when their contract with Activision run outs. Will they go with sony, ea, or go back to ms.

They'll go indie and reboot Marathon and kick Luke Smith out.

What are some good halo custom edition mods?
Please nothing that replaced the game textures and enemies with H3, if i wanted to play inferior halo games i would still have an xbox

SPV3
Bigass
CMT MP

Praise be to Luke Smith

...

Is that the ghost of Christmas future?

This is what Luke Smith is.

Whose luke Smith?

And can some explain this meme I've seen this post a lot lately

Such as? Bungie has done nothing but get worse with time

Oh, I meant some things about Halo are better

>gameplay is worse
>storytelling is worse
>art design is worse

Hey, the campaign netcode is better. You don't have to deal with input delay anymore if you want to play with friends across the country.
Shame about the actual campaign content.

For the most part yea.
Not entirely

wanna play hlao

No

Oh

why do I keep coming back here, there's nothing here for me...

What are you looking for?

>tfw i want some yous before numberfag arrives to shit up the thread

Numberfag hasn't been around for a while

Neither has the /hg/ map vote, what the hell happened to it??

The fight between Locke and Chief is one of the worst things in the franchise

Nunberfag retired when he went through all the Halo maps.
The map tourney user I have no idea.

playtesting custom maps every friday
Forgehub's version got too sweaty for me and I felt like no one was there to have fun, but rather to shit on each other.
FTG is no longer a thing. I miss Impulse DR and Massacre DR so badly. Those were my only friends in high school...

I'll start hosting custom map testing soon. You have to be patient for another week or so.
People are in finals.
Plus it's the holiday season.
Also one of our more prominent custom game hosts is occupied with an achievement grind.
On top of all of this, its the time of year where people try new things. I'd say in about 2 weeks /hg/ will be playing more often.

Also apparently there's a Halo custom edition server going up in early 2018 for /hg/

Allow me to reiterate what I disliked about Max Extra's Forged Fridays:
The maps that were being submitted were the same shit for the same modes over and over again. Nobody ever tried something new. Nobody ever submitted maps that were ambitious or pushed the envelope in Halo's gameplay. They always seemed like basic bitch slayer maps, but with x theme instead of y theme. I got sick of playing BTB maps with badly scripted doors. I got sick of playing "Survive the x" maps with soft kill timers and no real sense of progression.
It was style over substance. Don't make the same mistakes /hg/.

It's up

Anyone playing some muhfuggen uuuuuuhhhhhh Halo?

I really need to catch up to this, i wanted to rewatch the whole series before the newest season but i might have to just skip it.

Reminder to have fun on your Secret Santa missions

Any secret santa latefags want to have a mission? :(

Just went to bed. Maybe tomorrow

Post GT
