I got suspended from Xbox Live for talking mad trash. Suspended for 2 weeks, and I just bought 1 month like a couple days ago. WTF? This is some BS. Anybody ever been suspended and know if you can have your suspension reduced? People PM me and talk trash all the damn time for destroying them!

What game ?

This kid I know who got suspended weeks ago got banned last week

At least I know I wont have to waste money on buying a "gaming PC" for this nonsense. This game is what they choose to remake Turf for

I hope this trash doesnt kill the possibility of H3 Anniversary in 2017
 
Relax. This is just for Russia and most likely China etc. Console gaming isn't relevant there and they love f2p games. 343 isn't making it, Saber is. Halo 5 is still coming out, everything is fine with the world. This is just MS doing what it should do, cater to differing markets and make money. Just act like it doesn't exist

Not the point at all. Its all a part of the downslide of this franchise. This is the testing bucket for all the ridiculous things that they want to throw in. I honestly doubt a game with Halo in the title doesnt make it to America at some point, its basically the only real market for it.

343 isnt making it but they would have to greenlight this and oversee it, they own the rights to Halo.

I just need to stop caring and looking at Halo for what its become, pure money grab bait. No regard to quality whatsoever.

Gun attachments, Damage modifiers, Multiple variants of the same gun, tactical packages, Sprint, paying to unlock/rent weapons. All things I'd never thought I'd see in a Halo game on any platform.

LOL at Halo 5 is coming out, as if thats a good thing.

its not coming to America. This is the only territory that Xbox sells well and halo is their main draw. They aren't going to release any PC halo games here.

This is just for places where f2p games are actually accepted. This literally has no effect on you. It's just an offshoot of Ms being good at business and tapping into s large f2 p market where people only play crappy warface.

Halo is like Jordan brand. It's going to bombard you with releases that you may not even want, but that's fine because others do. Support what you like but quit downing business moves

Far Cry 4: It's an open world FPS, with TONS to do. The gunplay is slower than COD, but it's fun. It has competent online modes. The story may tone you out after a while, but you should be able to find your own fun by doing what you want. 

Like I was shooting at water, then an alligator came out of nowhere. I was unconsciously ....ing with his habitat.

You can conquer outposts from afar and watch the enemies drop like flies, since they don't where you are.

The map is huge.

Wing suiting is fun as hell!

 
Far cry 4 is money. Very immersive and lots of content.

If you want an fps that is more light hearted and has 10 times more content i reccomend looking into borderlands the handsome collection

:rollin :rollin how are you angry over this

I can't even comprehend dudes outrage anymore :rollin :rollin :rollin

F2P is huge in Russia, there is money to be made their and the player progression and customization is what you would find in most F2P games/shooters so it has to be included to for it to have a chance

And so what if comes to other markets in the future, if it is popular why not?

You guys dont really care what I think though :lol . You guys just chalk it up to nonsense rambling when theres been an ongoing trend here that I've been at the front seat of and its all related. Dont think for a second that this has no bearing on what future Halos will look like. Its a testing pool and a certain amount of features from it will translate to console versions.

The idea of this game is what the problem is. Its doing a lot of stuff to Halo on a mechanical level that causes a myriad of problems to what already exists in the core gameplay of the series.

 The dilution of the weapon sandbox continues :{  

Lets see how they go about scaling Guardian up for Sprint :lol . I really need them to stop doing remakes for Sprint/DMR games, it hasnt worked ONE time, and they keep trying.

i'll def try to find the collectibles later than sooner, but by that time far cry 5 will come out.

Lol yeah I really wanted the dlc but when I found out weapons don't transfer I was mad about that.

M$ will continue to commission 343 to create what they vision as a successful halo game, not what a small portion of a dying breed thinks is a successful halo game.

Halo will continue to evolve its combat

I would argue that dilution of the weapon sandbox is a step backwards and this is for any shooting game.

Regardless of my feelings about Halo in particular, I've always thought that having multiple guns that serve essentially the same purpose in a shooting game and the difference between them more often than not being negligible was always a bad thing. Its one of the things I loved most about Halo, when it really came down to it, you were playing an 8-12 game regardless of how many guns were actually in the game. 

H3 had 28 guns in it, the majority of them were really useless when you got down do it. If I ever picked the Spiker up, it was to mess with people, the Plasma Rifle only had a purpose on two maps, The Needler is the Needler, etc etc etc. H3 is BR, AR, Carbine, Melee, Power weapons and thats 8-12 of the guns, and thats how its always been. Go pull someones TOD on H3 and those guns are the ones you'll see at the top.

90% of the time you know what the other guy has because he probably has the same thing that you have. Along with that fact, it makes the weapon sandbox more balanced. When you have at max two guns that serve one purpose it makes it easy to balance those guns against the entire weapon sandbox as opposed to each other.

Now look at H4, H5, and this game. Each "Class of gun" has 3-4 weapons in it. When you do that, it forces you to balance those weapons against themselves as opposed to the sandbox itself. Why does H4 need the BR, DMR, Carbine, and Light Rifle? The Suppresser, AR, Storm Rifle? Having too many guns that do the same thing causes problems it leads to an oversaturation of guns.

This is the main problem with loadout shooters, everygun in a class has to be balanced to the gun thats relative in its category then balanced to the intended range. Then you end up with a bunch of assault rifles that behave essentially the same, snipers that behave the same, etc etc etc.

Now this game has the option to tweak the guns themselves which is the next level up. You see 5 DMR variants there in that screencap but it'll end up being like 20. Its just amplifying the problem.

Most importantly it kills the idea of a utility weapon and Halo 1-3 and to some extent Reach had one.

Again this applies to all shooters, COD does the same thing with their guns, part of the reason I cant totally get into it. Just feels eh. 

But yeah I'll chill on the talking about this. Cant have talking about a Xbox franchise in the Xbox thread, its "depressing"
 
Borderlands has a patch dropped for bugs already, huge patch 16GB

343 had months and still didn't get MCC right. 343 is really scum.

Good run with NT last night on Borderlands. Ranked up Nick nice. I will be on later, ranking up Kilroy.

I started Bloodborne last night....that game is annoying but addictive.
