Hosts: Dust Storm, Daft Link & Brent Gamer
What do you think will be implemented, if anything, to stop players or discourage them from betraying teammates, or adversely affecting your game play? I can't tell you how many times I've gotten the sniper riffle on Hemorrhage, and then been betrayed for it, or a teammate knocks me out of scope. And what about players helping the other team? I'll see little "clans" start up, and While I'm trying to get some kills, these people on my team, usually everyone, has the same service tag as a couple other people on the other team, and they to put it nicely, make the game very hard for me.
Writing to say that episode 310 was awesome, especially to hear Brent again. Will he be a permanent co-host? In any case, I hope that Daft stays on: I think you three will make an awesome podcast.
On the subject of Halo, I'm really excited about the objective aspect in War Games. In past Halo games, I've normally played Slayer game types, but the changes and emphasis that 343 are putting on team play are making things like capture the flag and oddball look VERY intriguing! 343 are doing a great job at keeping me excited!
Keep up the good work, and keep on fragging trucks!
So for everyone out there, I have a HUGE rant to go on! For those of you who don't know, Dust Storm LOVES the map speed. And as far as I know he is undefeated in that game. On September 17th, we had our MNM. Shout out to all of you who come! We would love for all of you guys to come. So good old Dusty here put the map on, and my first comment was, "I don't care who wins as long as it isn't Dust Storm"! So the points are as follows: if you get a kill as a human, it's one point, if you get a kill as a zombie, it's two points. ROUND ONE.I get infected very early in the game and infect 2 people. By the end of the round, I have 5 points, Dusty has 1. ROUND TWO. I start off as zombie and guess who I kill first? Dust storm! That's the WORST thing that I can do in that game is make him a zombie first! Anyways, I infect 5 people. The score is now 16 to 4. ROUND THREE. I a zombie yet again and infect dusty first. DAMN IT! I infect 5 people and the score is 27 to 8. ROUND FOUR.
Guess who's zombie again?? Me. Guess who gets infected first? HIM!! this is really pissing me off now. I get four kills. Score, 36 to to 15. ROUND FIVE. I'm finally in a car again! I get 1 splatter and 2 infections. Score, 42 to 28. ROUND SIX ends in 48 to 33. ROUND SEVEN, 52 to50. Somehow Dust Storm caught up! ROUND EIGHT. Dusty gets a splatter and is 1 point behind me. Then I'm infected and get a kill. Score is 54 to 52. Dusty ties it at 54 with an infection, and I'm getting really nervous that he's going to win. Thankfully I got one last kill. Round ends with a small 57 to 55 lead. The party is starting to cheer me on. ROUND NINE. I get a short burst of energy with a 61 to 55 lead. However, the round ends in a 62 to 60 lead. FINAL ROUND! This is what it all comes down to. My chance to finally see dust storm get beat in his favorite custom game. As I tried hard to hit my brakes to go slow and get infected, my efforts went in vain. I was hit, but only cosmetically to m y warthog. After flipping I blew up and had to spawn in a new car. As I looked at the score in my death screen I saw a 62 to 62 tie! I was in FULL panic mode. I slammed my brakes and was infected after my second pass. It caused a splatter for me and was in the lead again by 1 point. Dusty got an infection I was losing by a point. He got another one soon after. I saw my win quickly disappearing. I heard the screams in my headphones to get another infection and beat dusty. Unfortunately I never got another kill, and I was beaten 69 to 64. I was so close! I will beat you Dust Storm! I swear it!
Hey podtac. I've been wondering will there be any Elite armor customizations like the Spartans? OR just have the classes like REACH does??
Hey guys, first off I wanted to say that I love listening to your podcast when I'm forging in Reach, it's my favorite time to just sit down and play Halo.
Anyway I saw the Halo 4 covenant weapons video and it WAS awesome but the one thing that bugged me was that the returning weapons (excluding the carbine and the sword) looked like the models from Reach. Now I'm not sure if it's the build that they showed it in or there lazy, Probably not. But just wanted to get your thought about it.
Thanks guys. LOL keep on fraggin those trucks.
Sup podtac. ghoastchilly here to give out my thoughts on the new weapons. First off I have always disliked the covenant weapons and mostly liked the UNSC weapons because I like a more human feel to my weapons. But after seeing the new weapons video I'm excited. I'll start with the storm rifle which seems compatible to the saw. Then there is the plasma pistol which looks like its been beefed up to be able to compete with the human pistol. The new carbine also looks great and sounds better than from Halo 3 and is now less annoying. The fuel rod also looks like it fires faster and I'm extremely happy that it doesn't bounce now. I remember the reactions from Halo 3 when they had it bounced. It seems like a Halo 2 hybrid in my opinion. It actually seems compatible with the human rockets. My only dislikes are really to the sound on the concussion rifle and beam rifle which have both been tuned down sound wise. I don"t know if it the music or the weapons but I don't like their sound. But overall the new upgrades I feel seem to have fixed small issues with the old weapons and I think 343 did a good job at tuning up the old weapons for Halo 4. Like the guys from Halo council said 343 did a good job at covering all the avenues on peoples gripes an desire for the game and for the new forward unto dawn series which is way over due. Oh and I listened to the last episode while playing halo 3's Cortana on legendary. This was because a friend misplaced my campaign disc a while ago when I was about to start it on my new account a few years ago and he finally found it. That mission was on my hit list and I found it ironic hearing you guys talking about it. I'm also really pleased that the flood isn't in Halo 4. So yea sorry for the long submission thanks for reading. P.S. Thanks Daft for reading my old submission that had already been read on an earlier episode a month ago before the submission show that daft read twice in the course of recent episodes eh a no biggie.
