I've had enough of it. If I cared enough about gaming I would move on and play COD4 like everyone else in the world.

But I don't.

Yeah, COD4 would be a good place to go to when you're done with H3.

H3 got boring after everyone learned the new exploit to lag the game to hell and drop everyone's FPS but the host. I don't play anymore after seeing people do it every game im in. (and yes I know it works cause i've tested and done it myself.)

Lag exploit? Never heard of it, what's it all about? What's it involve?

on a phantom? Phantom's are dropships, do you mean something else?

Conscars, I do know how to do this on Forge; not matchmaking. On some spots when your off-host you get a teleporter and tap A really fast until it falls through the map. Some times it lags like fuck!

Try this on the center of guardian on the middle platform.

He means that purple thing that looks like a Phanton on Sandtrap, where the Banshee spawn is.

My mate was telling me how this happened to him, apparently it lagged like fuck the whole game, like 4 - 5 fps the whole time.

That only applies to sandtrap. Theres methods for every map to make it lag like fuck. Last 10 games I played someone did the exploit everytime regardless of the map.

Congrats, heres a nobody fucking cares medal.

This game is getting so lame, all I play is social cuz ranked is full of shit, I already have my 50 and general anyways so I have nothing left to achieve.

FTFY. Also, war games get pretty old when it's mostly all about the US Troops and how they win. I'm pretty sure everyone else would like to put it in the past, yet most americans (not saying you) decide to use that victory as a way to stretch it out on how brave american soldiers were and rub that in every non-american's face.

I don't know if anyone like that's in here, but that is almost as bad as being a racist imo.

Hey I don't play COD4...wait actually I did, I just finished it and stopped.

jngrow
February 15th, 2008, 11:17 PM
Hmm? I haven't seen this exploit yet. But I feel ya Korn. You see, I love Halo 3, but I'm just not playing it as much. For a challenge, I need ranked, but to not get raped, I need friends to go on with me. Social is way too easy for me. No clan support really fucked the longevity for me, as the near INFINITE amount of shit you can make would be awesome if you could actually get a fucking custom game going. Maybe it's just me.

All of the Americans in the game die <<;
As in, ALL. NONE of them survive.
Including minor characters. :S
Oh, and as for the "every american plays call of duty 4"
I have seen small children spouting shit in Arab the entire game(by the way their voices are higher then people that speak english and this guy was like 10 :gonk:); there are more british people on CoD4, too. At least in my experience.

According to some statisitics thing I found on the internet one day, most Eastern Seaboard Americans play H3, most West Coast Americans and Europeans play COD4, and Aussies play about even all around.

Limited
February 16th, 2008, 01:59 AM
I've only played an hour of H3, I completely sucked balls on Live. People were bitching at me for hogging the sniper even though I sucked using it (hey give me a chance!) but I have a whale of a time, amazing stuff. Wish my mate next door had it, for some reason he doesnt like Halo, doesnt care for it, but he has Cod3 and COD4 (which doesnt bloody work :( I want to play so bad)

I like halo because it isn't freaking black and white, like GoW and COD4.

Is that a lame reason? :/

halo 3, all halos, have great atmosphere. you can really get into the story line. cod4 does lack atmosphere, but then again, real war is nothing but black and white mixed with red. : /

TeeKup

In Assault on the control room.

I felt serenity, the snow blowing through the caverns and the snow falling gave me a sense of....silent death.

Halo has atmosphere, its just sci-fi non-realistic atmosphere. Halo 3 had GREAT atmosphere in its campaign, especially in Floodgate.

Halo 3 may have atmosphere.
CoD has atmosphere. They both do. It's just that the atmosphere's are DIFFERENT. It depends on what you like, really.

tbh, Halo 3 lacked anything that gave it a WOW factor. I mean, It does have a great storyline (albeit a pretty bad ending that left about 60% of the plot holes wide open) but it was really nothing but hype =\
Also, I like CoD4's online multiplayer better.

There's only one REAL plot hole, and that's the fact that just because the prophet is dead, it doesn't mean the covenant instantly goes bye-bye.

Prophets kept the Covenant together, the last major one dies, and boom, instant power struggle. The Covenant's too busy tearing itself apart to do anything else.

Intresting fact everyone seems to have missed.
The shipmaster elite tells you at the end of "The Ark" level, The elites completely destroyed the brute fleet.

At the end of halo 3:
Covenant religion disintegrated
Covenant war machine obliterated
Gravemind and flood killed
Elites allied with humans
Installation 04 and 00 destroyed
Master Chief and Cortana floating in space by some place.
Theoretically remaining covenant species allied with or incapable of defeating human-elite forces.

They did a pretty good job of tying everything together.

There's a thread speculating where the Chief actually is on bungie.net that's backed with actual trufax. (http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=13879867) Apparently, since the Chief and Cortana were through the portal AS IT CLOSED, they're floating around in an alternate universe; the one where Marathon takes place.

I thought they were in slipspace. That's what I remember reading at least, and then apparantly they dropped out of it around the point where they're seen floating towards the who-knows-what. But I'm probably wrong.

Kornman00
February 18th, 2008, 11:48 PM
I don't think its terribly out of balance. I'm mostly pissed the fuck off at the current melee system. I can't wait to test AU1. I can play it, but nowadays only for so long and as long as its not Bungie's version of Foundry :|.

p0lar_bear
February 19th, 2008, 12:36 AM
Even though the inner workings of the melee system in H3 look so much better on paper than Halo 2's "system", it still generates the same amount of bullshit.

I saw what they're doing for the auto-update, and I like it. I really think they should remove full-on lunging though. It seems like it was only tacked on to all weapons because of the sword; a case of "omg this is a cool feature let's abuse it :v:v:v:v" :/

Kornman00
February 19th, 2008, 02:44 AM

It's pretty much the same with Australian ADSL, our highest over here is 1.5 MB... it's complete and utter fail.

Sometimes playing Halo 2 / 3 with our Internet is a nightmare.

Although, Kevin Rudd promised us with new and better ADSL by 2011 - 2012... not too bad.
