Had alot of fun Drednote! Gotta run to the store though.

We need a dakka team to play reach

Just about to go up to Sgt rank now, been taking its time lol.
Now 21 wins / 24 games.


Also, connection issues seem to be gone tonight, so i can play in peace XD

Argh, this morning went terribly. I had a fair few matches with negative K/D spreads. Getting stuck in SWAT didn't help, because I'm fething terrible at it.

My gamertag is A1C Corvus. If you friend me, add a message saying you're from Dakka so I don't pass you off as a random creeper

We should def get a Dakka team going

I'd love to be part of a dakka team
I'm getting live in the summer

But man did we do awesome in that Covy Slayer game on Sword Base!

Two quitting=we wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin.

Heading to bed now. Early date with the ladyfriend

*Shakes fist at work for not allowing me to play 360*

Waiting for my Xbox to get back from repairs...

Bummer.

I had a blast with this today. We thought the armor upgrades you can buy would improve the the abilities like stealth etc.. Convinced.. haha. I actually think default looks the best which is sad.

I have played like EDIT 49 games today. I think I've won like 17 or so.. But I'm only a sarge..

All the modes were cool. Except Juggernaut is the game where you camp a room and win congrats..
Slayer is of course great. I really hate stockpile though, it just feels like a treasure hunt with people shooting at you.

Also finally able to get my beatdown right.. took forever to get use to that bumper.

Have to get use to the DMR .. but I am used to the FAL which rewards trigger happy behaviour where as bungie says no place your shots. The beam guy is really cool, nade launcher is great.

I noticed with this new method of ranking, doesn't make me wanna do better to get a better number(I got it up to 1600 playing a string of newb games. Whereas in the old halo 3 lone wolves I recall striving really hard to get to level 35 and then finding I was unable to play well enough to keep advancing. Damn you 50, I wanted to be a general!

All in all its pretty good. I look forward to playing as an elite though. They are cool.

Does anybody know when Generator Defense and Invasion will become playable?

Supposedly the 7th.

I think gen defense is 14th, could be wrong though.

Also GT is exactly the same as dakka name add for reach gamessssssss!

How the hell do you rename/change the descriptions of films?

I want to add something to my fileshare and it says the name/description is blocked :(

Edit: Apparently you can't, which is a bit rubbish.

Ah well, guess I will have to watch through the entire film and record the small section I want all over again...

Edit 2: Anyone who wants to see their reach stats, just head over here

Mine are here

It's pretty clear that the Beat is just a Beta but it is fun none-the-less. I was told that Invasion and whatnot are next week Monday.

Always looking for a good team! GT: plusARGON

Beta's great fun, love my jetpack.

GT: DaLordLoss

Just changed it, shame Lord Loss was taken. :(

i wonder if our stats from the beta wil transfer over to the regualr game what it comes out?

Of course not.

well why not? ugh. then what is the point of buying armor? i bet they have to tech. they are just to lazy.

They don't ever transfer stuff over from betas, because it would be unfair to the playerbase that wasn't involved with it.

Plus, most betas when finished are completely purged of all files to ensure stable operations on release date.

I like how one guy falcon punched my corpse with guard today.. tis superior to teabagging.

HAHA! With armour lock!? I never even thought to do that. Looks like I have some work to do!

Grenade launcher + jetpack = win

Bullhonky.

However, I do have a clip saved of myself bouncing a grenade launcher off a wall right into a guy jetpacking after a teammate while I was cloaked.

'Twas gorgeous.

Falcon punch ftw, shall try.

I love it... very pleased with the beta! I'd stopped playing halo (or the xbox at all...) out of boredom, but I love the new armor abilities! Excellent touch, that.

Now, I think my TV is a bit too small... the font is barely readable! But I'm loving it

Well, I got an email from Microsoft today letting me know they received my console for repair.

Which of course means I'll probably get it back right as the Beta is ending.

Woe is me...


I'm seriously considering going out and buying a 'back-up' 360 to play the beta during this time.

It sounds like you might miss it. I think the beta is supposed to close around the 19th.

That really sucks yakface.

Armor lock (AL) is my fav ability. I'd hate to think how crap the game would be if everyone used it.

Its perfect for poorer player like me, some one shooting you? AL and see where they are.. he threw a nade AL. Sword/hammer dude AL.

Instead of like in cod were assists are worth gak, in the beta they are worth equal to kills which promotes team play not to mention if you run in a pack which I've learnt to do now you do a lot better because of the inability of spawn weapons to kill quickly.

Anyone hardcore enough to be in a division yet? Im not as it uses true skill.. haha.
