    I'm really loving the new vehicle physics.

    They are a lot more "bumpy", but that makes them so much more fun.

    Oddball and Race are my new favorite gametypes.

    Am I the only one that thinks Brutes have become just as easy to kill as grunts? Seriously, they're a three hit kill and they don't do anything at all in battle really.

    I also, for some reason, cannot jack a Banshee for the achievement. I had a Banshee stuck under a bridge on the 1st mission and I got not option to board it. Can I only board them on a certain level or what?

    I jacked a banshee on the spire campaign level. It tried to ram me or something and was on the ground, so I ran and jetpacked towards it and snagged it.

    May just be jumping to conclusion or something else but....

    On my "Main Menu" page on Reach the background suddenly changed to a city which is raining(same as the campaign one) and it use to be the MM Planet with Junk flying around on the Main Menu. (it changed after playing Hours of campaign, and i assume MM was my most played game before)

    So my observational guess is whatever game you played the most is your Main Menu background? Anyone have any clue if this is true or something or prove or disprove it?

    I don't understand the system at all, when I first tried out forge for 1 hour, I got around 1700 cR, yesterday I forged for 4 hours too and only got 50 cR

    I would really like to hear from someone who understands this, Because you get around 50credits for a "offline game" like playing with accounts that aren't gold or silver. I've never got more than 50 credits for forging even forging with someone else over XBL only got 50.

    Slayer Pro

    IMO MLG = Slayer Pro

    It's already in Team Slayer and the Arena(No Radar, Sprint for All, DMR Starts)

    No. There is so much more that makes a game competitive than limiting to sprint, no radar, and dmr starts. It's actually kind of ironic they made a slayer pro gametype.

    In other news, me and a friend are starting a BTB map.

    What about the crapy spawns, the awful maps and the unnecessary weapons in Slayer Pro?

    The matchmaking gametypes and maps are very broken and the servers keep resetting me back to the default armor and rank mid game and wont register challenges, then randomly revert me back to my actual stuff.

    Invasion is pretty fun though, if you have a full party. That's about it really.

    First part has not happened to me. Second part: invasion needs more maps! Seriously, 2 maps for invasion (not Gallic about invasion slayer)?

    So I just finished defending Halsey's lab on the 9th mission. Definitely the hardest part of the game so far. I'm certain the The Pillar of Autumn won't be close to being as hard as that level. The whole time while defending her lab I was constantly looking from left to find flanking enemies. I was also making sure I was positioned correctly to avoid being hit by Banshee's and Wraith's. As hard as I thought it was, I'd definitely say it's up there as one the most fun moments I've ever had in a Halo game. I'm pretty sure I said "I'm screwed" atleast 5 times during that part.
    Did anyone else have trouble on the mission of Light Night of Solace when defending the pelican? I was fine up until those 4 Elites came out of the doors. It took me like 10 tries to kill them all on Legendary. This legendary play through has made me hate Fuel rods and Concussion Rifles with a passion.

    I just had the weirdest game of invasion ever, on spire.
    We were defending as elites, did pretty well, but eventually they captured the first area. However, they got two points for doing so. The got a third for the next area, and a fourth for delivering the data core. However, the game didn't end there. It continued. It continued after the timer got to zero as well. Also, we couldn't choose our spawn points or loadouts, we all had assault rifle and pistol, with no armour ability. Eventually, after about 45 minutes, everyone backed out apart from me and two people on the other team. We spent a further 10 minutes killing each other repeatedly with airborne vehicles. Eventually, I invited them to party, after a long discussion, they quit. I would have quit , but I earned a few accommodations that game, and didn't want to lose out on credits. Has anyone else found any weird matchmaking glitches? My little brother got a rally on pinnacle where the checkpoints were on random and everyone was just killing each other with weapons they picked up around the map. Also, the invasion game is not in my game history. :/

    I've had a weird stockpile glitch.

    My teams points added up to equal the winning score (10, maybe?) while the other team had one less than us when the game ended and the game stats appeared.

    They won.
