Opening theme
- Spelchek: alright guys welcome back to podtacular I am spelchek, and due to some very unfortunate file- compression errors and a couple of things I can’t get into now decidus could not make it with us today. After having to deal with some really frustrating things with some programs I haven’t been able to contact him, but it’s all good. We’re still gonna have your custom game types and all of your fun- time goodness here on the show. foo moo jive will be back next week, I promise, I can gaunter it. But not alot’s been happening here in halo land for the most part. I don’t know if you guys have seen team hardcore is out now. Started recording the show on Thursday, usually I do it on Saturdays, but you know it’s all been pretty good here in the hood. Um but I want to go right into some custom games.
- Ninja CTF:
We got one here it’s called ninja ctf, it is a capture the flag game, imagine that. Some little instructions so it’s not really anything it’s just simple, everyone plays as ninjas, able to use whatever’s available to them. And as a ninja, you’re a stealth master so everyone has invisibility. But when you pick up the flag you’re not invisible. Clever huh, so obviously you’re gonna need… it’s one flag though, one flag ctf, five minute time limit, player options you’re gonna need to have active camo, but not just going for the flag, no, no my friends, no. Team options, vehicles same. But it’s gonna be BR, magnum, new classic weapons, no oversheild or active camo on the map. So check that out, I reckon that’ll be a good game.
- Hunter and Prey:
Hunter and prey, it is a juggernaut game, its juggernaut slash dreadnaught whatever you want to call it. The juggernaut may only use melee attacks, and the beam rifle. So everybody else may use any other weapon. It’s good for maps like relic and terminal. It’s two rounds, 25 kills. I’ve never seen any juggernauts with rounds, that’s a little odd. No shields, motion trackers are off. Active camo for the juggernaut, other than that a regular game. But the juggernaut can only melee and use the beam rifle, that’s the only difference, be sure you remember that.
- Butcher:
The next one we’ve got here is called butcher, it’s almost like a sword ctf, but the interesting twist, the flag carrier has active camo so he’s a bit hard to see, it’s a fun game type with two teams of 4- 5 people, if you have more you definitely want to keep it on the largest maps. It works really well on sanctuary. And it’s good for any map; any map is what it’s good for. It’s multi – flag ctf. five scores to win, ten minute round limit, respawn time 5 seconds, nothing to complicated but it’s only swords, it’s energy sword, no secondary, no weapon on map, no oversheild no camo, and no grenades as far as I know. So flag carrier has active camo, it’s gonna be a fun game, you should check it out
- Contest:
Alright, this one here is called contest, this game works best on lock out and beaver creek, spawn- killing can’t be helpful because it’s a threesecond respawn time. So try doing it with teams of five… three teams of five, sorry. If it’s too hard to take the territory make contest and control times three seconds, it’s a three plots game. So if you did four teams it’d be kinda crazy to. So check it out Lets move into something else considering that we have nothing else planned because this is the greatest show ever. Yep, this really sucks for me. VOICEMAILS
Voicemail theme
alright the voicemail of the week award this week goes to acowletter, check it out.
- acowletter: hey guys this is a cow letter, and I’ve got some tips for coag. If you’re playing assault or capture the flag, and there’s a banshee on, you can get in that and fly it to the top of the roof on either of the bases, and get it in- between the blue little lift thing. But not so far in that it’ll push it back out, so if you get that in there, when the other team drives the warthog below the base they won’t be able to go up the teleporter so it’ll take them a while. So you can jump down and crush them with the shotgun or something so ya. Great show guys, keep it up.
- No name: hey foo mo jive, spelchek, I was just listening to the coag. And combos episode and spelchek, you said that it’s gay to camp with the sword, I’ve got to admit that sometimes it is but when you’re facing up against the battle rifle you really have no chance sometimes. So you gotta stay low and let people come to you, especially on lockout where you could hide up by the sniper. So love the show and keep on going.
- stormcrow1186: one of the big advantages of coagulation is all the vehicles of course; you can drive whatever you want. Whether it be jeeps, or jet – propulsion gravitational weird vehicles from the aliens that shouldn’t work on earth but do anyway because it’s a game and it’s not real. Um, anyhow, if you don’t have a vehicle on coagulation that really stink, cause you’re just walking around with your battle rifle and people are honking at you and trying to run you over, and that type of thing. kinda like the real word you know, kinda like riding your bike to school and you’ve got like three intersections and people are just out to kill you. Well that really stinks especially if you don’t have a rocket launcher, and you don’t have any way of getting even with all these punks who are driving around trying to run you over so what do you do? You go for plasmas, sticky grenades are the best things in the world for getting rid of vehicles, I believe, so rockets of course are probably the ultimate but it takes so little skill to lock on a rocket and shoot it. It’s just kinda like why go there. so what you do is you run up one of the little cliffs close to whatever base you happen to be by, whether it be red base, or blue base.
Go up there there’s a brute shot and two plasma grenades, and they respawn fairly quickly so if you stay there for maybe thirty seconds or so you actually can get form, you can get two at the beginning and then if you just kinda walk away, or stand there on the edge they will repspawn and you actually get a couple. So you grab those, and then you jump down and you wait for the nearest vehicle victim and you stand out there and look like a noob walking around but hey some jeep guy drives up to you and wants to run you over and you stand directly in font of him as he’s coming full on you throw your plasma a little bit shorter and a little bit lower than you would think because it is really hard to judge distances in halo and I found that stuffs always coming at you faster than you think it is. So the best thing to do is throw that plasma a little bit short and try to stick the jeep, and then you jump, and he goes underneath you, and he is stuck with the plasma and with jeeps it generally takes two plasmas to kill em unless you get one kind of underneath it and then you can flip it over, the best thing that I’ve found to do is stick em with a plasma, jump, and as you’re going through the air start shooting them. Generally that’ll make em mad, they’ll turn around and then you can throw you’re second plasma or you can throw some frags. But once you get a guys in a fight you will totally win cause a guy on the ground is much more maneuverable than a guy in a jeep. It’s kinda like riding a bike and then trying to hit you’re sister with a water balloon, and she’s just standing there on the sidewalk, you’re gonna get hit a lot more often than she is just because she’s stationary and you’ve got to keep riding around her. Works the same way with a jeep, and pretty soon you will have blown that sucker up and it works great. So anyhow, thanks so much podtacular you guys are doing a great thing, love listening to you guys, can’t wait for the TV, I really like video and that’ll be awesome to see you guys in person, and if you have a capture card we get to see some of this cool stuff in action. So anyhow this is stormcrow1186 signing off.
- catmastershotgun: hey this is catmastershot gun with clan Okinawa, and I was just calling to say it was a pleasure playing the podtacular all stars the other day, and I think we did pretty good even though we did lose 2-0. But our team we had set up didn’t show up so we had to scrap together a team so I think we still did pretty good for that. Look forward to a re- match pretty soon. And I enjoy the show and keep up the good work, bye.
- jvd: what’s up foo mo, what’s up spelchek, this is jvd. And I have a slight complaint, something that’s really been bothering me, it’s gotten to the point where it’s hard for me to sleep so here it goes. Last week I ordered my podtacular thong, and it hasn’t gotten here yet and I’m starting to get a little annoyed about that because I have an important photo shoot coming up. And I need my podtacular 2 thong. So if you guys could maybe pull a few strings and get my thong here a little quicker. I need to wax, I’m kinda hairy and everything. You can edit out the podtacular 2 things if you want. But if you could get the ball rolling on that, you notice I said strings. Anyway, just calling to see how you guys doing.
- moddersforbreakfast: hey this is moddersforbreakfast, I’ve got a nice little slayer variant for you, and it’s called demo- derby. This is how it goes, no one is to be without a vehicle, and when you have you’re teammates in a vehicle, and the opposing teammates in the vehicles, they cannot fire at each other, instead they must ram each other. And it is best played on the map of the week, coagulation. And I also have a nice little suggestion for podtacular, perhaps you could have a celebrity grunt of the month, and whoever does the best grunt of the month impression, you could send them a prize. So goodbye podtacular and this is moddersforbreakfast. Peace out, MAC USERSRULE.
- Dk: hey podtacular this is dk and I have one question for you, what if Arnold was the mater chief, [him going aweeeeeew in Arnold voice], [still in Arnold voice] first of all, I would like to say that I just made the covenant look like filthy choir boys, they can cower and hide all they want to, but in the end I am the master chief and I own, so I pull out my two magnums and punch them in the head with nine millimeter bullets. This is the part where I laugh at the covenant, [?], so ya podtacular that’s my Arnold segment and…
- xxcrowminesxx: hey guys this is xxcrowminesxx and I have a sniping tip for coagulation, at the very beginning when you spawn go get the sniper rifle and jump in a ghost. If you’re on red base, go back behind sorta where the rocks are in the very back and there should be a point where you can zoom up the side of the cliff and just go up there, and there’s ought to be a spot where it flattens out, you can just land there and just get out of you’re ghost, and knock it off so that nobody sees it. So stay up there and go to town with your sniper. Alright guys I love the show, bye.
