You kinda need to play it with bandanna to enjoy it. But even then, anytime you die after you’ve gotten some nice weapons from enemies, you have about 10 seconds to run over and pick them up before they’re gone.
I don’t mind the loadout system for Spartan Ops, but I can see why they’d be a pain in the ass to deal with in multiplayer.
I recently replayed 4. Although I kinda like the gameplay, I found the story to actually be pretty boring. I like the Didact as a concept, but he’s incredibly underused imo. The Prometheans are just incredibly annoying to fight, and Spartan Ops gets very tedious because of them.
I like some things like the added sprint (fight me, if any game should have sprint it should be Halo, at least in campaign) but another thing is that the story feels so incredibly short. Like it ends right as it’s about to get good.
I will say the Spartan armor and elite designs have grown on me since it first came out. It does make me want to replay Halo 5, and I am disappointed that it’s not going to be brought to PC pretty much ever.
So I just looked at screenshots for Carrier Command, and from the short description and pictures, it looks kinda like you take the role of a Halo battleship captain yet you can also personally pilot any of the vehicles and such?
That sounds badass.
It’s been a shorthand for “achievement” for a long time. In fact, there’s an achievement in Fable 2 that’s called I Did This For A Cheevo (maybe that was the description?)
Damn, not even 30 minutes old and you’re already preaching doomerism.
I mean honestly, how much more blatant of a right-wing troll could you be?
Personally I’d praise Lord Hood from Halo. Voiced by Ron Perlman, plays a badass military commander during one of the most intense battles during the Human-Covenant War, and takes no shit from the Arbiter or other elites when talking face-to-face.
So the guy is bragging/constantly on social media, at work, about having a side hustle?
A) report that shit to your boss. I’m sure they’d be happy to find out that instead of actually doing the job they’re supposed to be paid for doing, they’re on their phone dicking around on social media.
B) anytime they turn the camera on you, speak your mind and don’t hold back. Tell them how shit you think they are for doing this whole thing, how annoying it is for you to constantly deal with their bullshit at work, and that they’re a loser for trying to include random strangers in their shit.
C) report them for harassment. Especially if you’ve told them to stop multiple times. Your boss would like that one, too.
I don’t wanna sound like an asshole, but this seems like a bait post, like those you’d see on r/AITA
If it’s not, I’d recommend taking the advice of everyone here that’s saying talk to a doctor. Keep working out even if you feel it’s not helping, it’s still building those habits of exercising and staying active.
I haven’t been active in almost half a year, and I hate myself for it. I wish I had any hobbies that got me out of the house. Don’t be like me.
Uh… I mean there’s Halo Wars, which lets you play as Covenant leaders in certain modes (in 2 there’s a DLC storyline where you play as the aliens again, but not against the humans). The UNSC is basically the US Army In Space.
Aside from that I’m not sure. There’s probably plenty of mods for other games though. Like GMod, there are tons of NPCs and such in the steam workshop, plenty of US military characters to choose from. You can then load into a map, set up a spawner (or spawn them in yourself), and start blasting. I did actually do something like this back when the George Floyd protests were going on: I went in the game, spawned in a bunch of cop NPCs and just started blasting and mowing them down.
It actually did feel pretty good, tbh.
I don’t know how
I only played the “first” one, but that one did feel incredibly like Halo to me. Just with the added functionality of portals.
I mean you have an assault rifle, a battle rifle, a pistol, a DMR, and shotguns. I’m sure there are some other ones I’m not remembering.
Edit: I also actually liked the functionality that grenades had. Instead of a crowd control or room-clearing tool, now they’re specifically to disable enemy portals. So now you had an interesting dynamic where yes, you can portal all the way across the map (or try sniping someone through a portal) into the enemy’s base and try to score, but it also presents a nice little counter to that strategy.
Nice. I’ve played two of these (Schedule I and Abiotic Factor).
I need to actually try this mod one of these days. Jedi Academy is one of my all-time favorite Star Wars games. Jedi Outcast is pretty damn good too.
I watched a video of someone trying to 100% this game as fast as possible.
He was doing pretty good at first, then he started talking about the fossils…
I’ve been playing through the Halo series again
The first game is so incredibly atmospheric. Walking through the empty snow-covered New York streets, looting through abandoned houses, apartments and offices; exploring the subway and other iconic NYC locations.
That too. Even though my Game Pass has been cancelled and I haven’t had Xbox Live in a couple years, I can also still go into the Xbox PC app, install any game that I’ve bought that’s also PC compatible or stream whatever I own that isn’t (but still has cloud workability).
It’s how I’ve been playing Halo Wars 2 lately. And I’ve seen the Fable games are cloud compatible, but I haven’t tried those on PC yet.
From what I understand about this subscription (I never looked into it before) it’s basically like a reverse Game Pass? So you pay the monthly subscription, and you can play the games that are on the service, on different devices aside from just a PC?
While that does sound pretty cool and impressive, I can’t imagine most people, or most anyone that calls themselves a gamer would touch this service with a 20’ pole. Like at that point, just own the game and system you want. You can play whenever and for however long you want.
Also, this may sound weird, but after reading the article I have a strong urge to start a game and just let it run idle, racking up playtime. Out of spite for Nvidia I guess.
It definitely is clunky, but I feel like if you look at designs fairly closely you can see some evolutionary jumps. Maybe not with some helmets like Hazop, but you can with others like Rogue and Recon.
Imo I kinda liked 4’s version of sprint. It was there, everyone had it, but it was limited and had a sort of cool down similar to other armor abilities. I do also like the gameplay of 5, with the other added Spartan abilities like slam and clamber; imo it made me feel like a lethal killing machine moving around the battlefield.
