Bring back ForgeCast! :[

Policies were meant to be broken.

I have about two pages of **** from Mochasun that I want to clear up. If we both agree to it, can you (or anyone else) perform a hard delete?

"here at forgecast we had a little competition, or challenge, a challenge of sarge being nice, some may say its impossible""oh its impossible"
ahahahahahahahha

Hey, is there any way to hard delete a comment off my profile?

Also, lol.

I was the same when I realised, but no Sniper means (at least for me) having a chance to work on getting a really solid and versatile DMR, only without the overbearing presence of more powerful weapons etc. making that very difficult. Like I said, shouldn't pronounce the promised land based on 3 games, but it's a welcome addition and no mistake. Even the little niggle I worried about in assists counting (like team Arena) doesn't seem to be an issue since they're so hard to get in Reach (compared to old games) that if you win by assists over an opponent with more kills then you deserve it (perhaps a .9 score on an assist versus a kill would be wise though, I can see it unfarily tipping the balance in a close game once in a while).

Yeah pretty much, though I think the inclusion of standard weapons on map adds some spice over MLG FFA which is literally just DMRs. The most OP you're gonna get is a Needler and that's severely nerfed in how much it can dominate simply by it being FFA so you never live too long or can exploit it too much.

What, starting weapons or on map? DMR/AR starts and regular weapons on map, power weapons removed.

Lol, indeed.

Btw, tried Arena FFA and finally enjoyed that section. Competition is actually engaging for once and there are no power weapons so it's just raw run and gun skill like competitive FFA should be. Even the AR secondaries aren't overused and actually fit quite nicely in to certain circumstances, not only do I not resent their presence, so far I've actually appreciated it from time to time. Only 3 games so far (well, 4 but I quit out of that near the start because there's little point playing a solid DMR's game on bad connections) and won all of them. I got robbed of actually having the top spot kills wise (24 and the other dude pipped me to 25) in the third game but won by having 9 assists (sometimes the DMR goes your way, sometimes it doesn't) and got an Overkill.

If you're up for something bare bones then definitely check it out, it seems pretty damn close to what MLG FFA will be like when they finally update the settings for it from v1.

I'd just stop playing and watch that instead though....
The average framerate on 4 player Glacier would be considered unplayable if it were a versus MM game.

I was at 10 for the start of today as well, I missed the last 16 weekly so I really want this one, trying to get to General so I can make my Spartan even more chunky ;). First time I'd ever done a FF challenge and I got them all. Though I did discover a useful tidbit of info for the future: FFMM is dull as ****. Who knew?

Speaking of challenges, how are you doing for the weekly atm?

I used to play pretty much only TS but found FFA to be a nice balance for it, still never go in to SWAT lol.

I used to pretty much solely 1v1 a single person in CE, much less so in H3 as I discovered online, was more like you in that I just didn't see the appeal over the team game, the latter being much more inline with how I played and liked to play. Dunno why, but in Reach it feel a lot more natural. Said CE 1v1 friend has gotten back in to it after H3 as well, a version of Mick's Rat Race which I changed weapons on is our personal favourite but this new Guardian has potential too imo.
I tried a camo really early on in Forge since I started messing around with weapon sets for my own purposes almost straight away. Having it work like the AA just makes it useless and this is a nice fix, though tbh not what I would have put at the top of desired fixes.

Goddamn char limit

...I'd rather see KotH/Stockpile's objective spawning settings made to actually work, but this was done with altered gametypes server side distributed by MM, idk what it's possible to do using that method, kinda impressed they even did something like that further in advance than a patch (which I'm more hopeful for now).

Nice lemme know when it's up, I'll definitely check it out. Trashtalkers are always a larf, especially those who take getting stomped on as license to trash even more. I have to say, I like getting challenged to 1v1's ALOT more on Reach than I did with H3, haven't lost one yet, though considering the people I'm still being matched up against in MM (hidden trueskill mechanic my ass) that's, again, just more fun than actually impressive.

Btw, you heard about the fix for Camo and OS powerups so they work like they used to in past games (ie. they actually serve a purpose now)? I downloaded a nice remake of Guardian just as I heard, a beautiful piece of serendipity which (after a 5 minute forge sesh) has landed me a really nice H3 throwback 1v1 option that plays pretty well imo.

Honestly I have no idea. I take no more care over it than a standard weapon unless I'm mindful of ammo tbh (rare in most casual playlists, common in MLG but that's mostly my other GT anyway). Often enough I'll just suck, not necessarily even just for a game but for a minute or two, and miss a whole clip on a guy not even strafing particularly well or just at long range, other times I'll barely miss for games at a time even including no/quickscopes. I'm really variable tbh, I do wish that Halo had accuracy stats sometimes just cause I'm interested to see what I'd be like.

You got any full games capped? I'd be interested to watch a strong performance, either Snipes or regular playlists where you get a good amount of sniping in during that game.

I'm not surprised lol. If you want advice from a pro stat *****, FFA is your friend, it's also nice not to have to rely on others even if the competition is somehow worse than other playlists. Gonna try FFA Arena soon, could be the first time I enjoy Arena since teamwork (or lack thereof inherent in that section) will no longer be an issue.

Still, can't touch my 5.96 Sniper ratio ;). Service Record. Also notice how player models are updating now, win!

kk thanks

could you force an avatar for me?

hmm... Good thing I've got another map idea now, cause I'm over altering that one...
