It's clear whoever made this knew who those helmets belonged to and the people who wore those helmets knew their were partaking in a ebin circlejerk they can always look back and snivel with each other about.

You made the accusation, so back it up with facts.
If I said the North Pole was an active volcano zone I'd have to prove it.

>>145932668
I'll second that assertion

>>145932682
There are no facts. Only implications which are strong enough to build a statement. An image with randos serves no purpose. An image with Discordfags can make an ebin meme.

Aight, so I'm trying to come up with a story for a Halo RPG game, using pathfinder or whatever works. When should the plot take place? I was thinking the characters (ODST's) would be nearing the end of their leave on earth after the second battle of harvest, and the events of Halo wars, when they're assigned to a ship to go look for the Spirit of Fire.

thoughts?

>>145934047
Hold on so you admit that the discord is for /hg/ anons to play together eventhough they are not playing halo?

That pretty much sums up a circlejerk imho.

You could have it be post-war chasing down Kig-Yar pirate nests only to discover something like a rogue Sanshyuun.
Alternatively have it set during the war trying to stop a low key Covie infiltration of a colony world that has Forerunner shit underground.

>>145934663
Because it was cleary not an inside joke :^)

>>145934674
Darn, its open. Anybody have a party I can join? I have a mic.

>>145934857
No clue what you're getting at but seeing as how outside discussion is going on that we don't know about only strengthens my claims that there is a circlejerk going on.

>>145933871
Is this from the new DLC? I don't remember this scene in vanilla or HOS

>>145935027
I was being sarcastic and pointing out that the op image is cleary meant as some kind of a inside joke only few people can understand, anon.

>>145934852
>You could have it be post-war chasing down Kig-Yar pirate nests only to discover something like a rogue Sanshyuun

Nah I really hate post-Halo 3 Halo. I just can't stand it, and I'm gonna avoid it at all costs.

>Alternatively have it set during the war trying to stop a low key Covie infiltration of a colony world that has Forerunner shit underground

now THAT is a fucking cool idea. I wouldn't even need to tie it in to any known events in the Halo universe. Maybe a basic premise like the players are fresh off the boat from the harvest campaign, or that the mission to stop the covies from getting the forerunner shit could be because of the recently enacted Cole Protocol or something. Anything to get the players flying from place to planet to planet. If the story leads them to a forerunner installation that isn't heard of by the events of Halo 1, I could just have them all die at the end so it fits in the timeline.

Gameplay wise I'm not sure how it would work, they'd basically get to pick whatever gear they want at the beginning of the mission, and the only rolls would be for accuracy? idk

Who said I have a problem with Smash 4? The point is, actions in fighting games are quick and are quickly repeatable so you won't have to worry about using some sort of resource. If you want to try things out in Wars, there cooltime and resources that would stop you from trying something else.

This was how you defined that Smash was a fighting game. This applies to Halo as much as it does to Smash. By your own definition, Halo is a fighting game.

>>145945161

The point is that these games have similar actions. Limb based attacks, special moves, blocks, evades, varied characters, etc. If the goal at the end of the day is still to land more hits which leads to someone's loss, it's a fighting game. That's what we were talking about in the first place.

>>145946592
>Halo 5 has characters with different abilities
Is there a gamemode I'm not aware of? You only play as a Spartan with the same moveset as every other Spartan. Pretty sure that was 343's marketing slogan.
>varying attacks based of what you're doing doesn't make it limb based
Sure it does. Your limbs do different things based on the different combinations you press. You can think of Directional Inputs + A as a separate button.

>>145946653
Their overall movesets are unchanged. Same movement speed, melee attacks, jump arc, health (I think), etc. One armor ability I don't justifies enough to label it a different character. 4 does actually have a bunch in depth stuff in there so you're right on that. It still fails limb based combat and overall movement attributes. 5 has loadouts? Again, perks and powerups are more sandbox elements with the base characters staying the same.

>>145946938
Campaign, each Spartan has different buffs and starting kit.
Directional inputs do not count as separate buttons.
Don't forget about jetpacks, armor locks, and camo. All different enough to give variety.

>>145946938
You hear that, guys? Ken and Ganondorf exist, meaning that Street Fighter and Smash aren't fighting games.
Let's also keep ignoring that Smash doesn't have limb-based combat.

Why not? Would you consider RT to be a button in a fighting game? It usually activates all three kick buttons. That's multiple inputs just as a direction + A would be.
Addressed that in my other post.

>>145947041
You're just being obtuse. How can something not be limb-based if you're limbs do something different based on what you're doing. Why can't you treat a Direction + A as a different button if that always does the same attack? Might as well be.

Limb-based combat is when limbs are assigned to buttons. Killer Instinct does this. Street Fighter Does this. Dead or Alive does this. Smash does not do this.
>Why can't you treat a Direction + A as a different button if that always does the same attack?
Because that applies to just about every game. No new buttons are made. This applies to games with and without limb-based combat, so you saying that a forward smash extending a leg makes the game limb-based is absolutely retarded.

>>145947396
If you only want to consider default commands single press commands as buttons that's fine.

You're both forgetting that this stems from talking about limb based combat. merely suggested you can think of them as separate buttons. Tying limb based combat to buttons doesn't make sense since you preform different limb based attacks doing other motions (literally one extra motion).

That's not how it works. In limb-based combat, you have a punch buttons and kick buttons. Plural. They all also have variations based on stick direction and input. Smash has ONE physical button, and one special button. There's no limb-based mechanics.

Limb-based combat. Combat with limbs? I couldn't come up with a simpler definition. You have kicks. Punches. Sometimes tail swaps. Has Daigo himself shackled limb-based combat to one action buttons? When you look at something like Ryu's overhead, does that not register as a limb based attack to you?

Listen here you little shit, that's not an argument.
You're basically trying to say racism equals prejudice+power.
Limb based combat is buttons set for limbs, not multiple inputs that aren't even specified in any way, shape, or form.

>>145948562
>I've given detailed explanations for limb-based combat.
And it's one you made up. You can change your own definition to be whatever you want, but speaking in terms of sane people who use communication, Smash has as much limb-based combat as Halo does.
Also, you have yet to refute that Halo 5 is a third person RTS with limb-based combat.

>>145948709
So I should use a different term because I've given detailed descriptions of what limb-based combat is. Fine. We'll call it Body-Part combat. Don't forget. We're still using the descriptions I gave you a while back.

>>145948721
We're calling it Body-Part combat now since you two are to hung up on a name rather than the descriptions I've given you. You can proceed now. Halo 5? You're in 1st person view. I'm assuming you have a different terminology for 3rd person since it seems odd to use it that way so please describe it. I buy that it's RTS (again I would need you're description of it). Limb-based combat or Body-Part combat? Name is important!

>>145948887
>We're calling it Body-Part combat now since you two are to hung up on a name rather than the descriptions I've given you
And that has no strict definition, either. Every competitive game has a body, in some shape or form.
You accepting that Halo 5 is a third person RTS with limb-based combat is just the final nail in the coffin. You're like a pseudointellectual who hears fancy words that they don't know what they mean, and agree with them to sound smart.

No you didn't. You just said "it has limbs, therefore it's limb based." There's no indication of when this does and does not apply. Halo has always had a button to swing your arm, which is a limb. It also can be held to do another move, and assassination options also allow me to use kicks, stomps, jabs, and stabs. And further than that, Reach allowed for limb-based blocking mechanics, by your definition.

That's my definition. Assassinations are merely different animations of the same attack. Same hitbox. Same damage. Same attack properties. I actually can't think of an example in a fighting game I've seen where one attack does the same thing every time yet has different animations for it.

>Each character has attacks coming from limbs that varies with what you're doing (jumping, crouching, running, etc.)
So punches, ground pounds, spartan charges, and assassinations. Yep, Halo has limb-based combat on the same level as Killer Instinct. They're the same game, you know! They both have the Arbiter!

Anygame where you punch people and it's sideways is fighting game.

You don't even have to punch people, according to Johnny. Marth doesn't have a button to punch at all.

Where are the varying characters and blocking mechanics? We went over this already. Halo 4 got a slight nod at least for the diverse loadouts but the base character remains the same.

>>145950068
One moment we play by "my rules" then others we play by "yours". Why are you complaining?

Here's the problem, "my" rules are backed up, "your" rules are made up so you can win the argument. You're worse at arguing than my liberal family members, at least they have the common decency to lie about facts.

>>145950409
>Where are the varying characters and blocking mechanics?
A player with roll and a player with hologram are plenty varied. They're actually more varied than Fox and Falco.
>blocking mechanics?
You never said blocking mechanics needed to be in. And even further than that, Reach has armor lock, and Smash has a completely different blocking system from any game ever made.
>Halo 4 got a slight nod at least for the diverse loadouts but the base character remains the same.
A player with unlimited sprint, fast reload, and promethean vision is plenty different from a person with faster assassinations, more ammo, and active camo. Once again, they're more varied than Pikachu and Pichu.

>>145950338
Punch means attack.

>>145950520
Your rules are backed up by people who have a million meanings for the term "footsies". We went over this too. It's a diverse subject which is why it's important to give your claims descriptions. I wouldn't take on the argumentative techniques your family shows. It's showing.

>>145950531
The two extreme differences in Halo 4 are being compared to extreme similarities in Smash. Bad comparison. What's certain is that both the Halo 4 dudes have similar hitboxes, health, armor, hurtboxes, gravity, jump arc, melee attacks, shitty armor, etc. If the extreme is that similar can you make the case for diverse characters?

>>145950990
>The two extreme differences in Halo 4 are being compared to extreme similarities in Smash. Bad comparison.
You can't just say that it's a bad comparison and not say why it's a bad comparison.
>If the extreme is that similar can you make the case for diverse characters?
A fighting game doesn't require diverse character movesets and hitboxes. You could have just Ryu in Street Fighter and no other character, and it's still a fighting game.

Your definitions aren't backed up by the steaming shit you just took that somehow resembles a non-argument.
There's a million definitions for footsies, but they consistently relate to fighting games. Your definitions even apply to fucking basketball.

>>145951112
>The two extreme differences in Halo 4 are being compared to extreme similarities in Smash
At least try.

>A fighting game doesn't require diverse character movesets and hitboxes. You could have just Ryu in Street Fighter and no other character, and it's still a fighting game.
True. I guess the question lies in the characters themselves. Ryu is very diverse. But then you have something like Divekick where if you only had Dive playable, it wouldn't be diverse but it would still be a fighting game. You're right.

>>145951197
I've noticed the posts that have reaction images haven't been up to par as the other anon's have been. You do know footsies can apply to stuff outside of traditional fighters right? GoW has footsies. And since I know you guys love your definitions and fighting game mantra, Alex Valle brought this up.

>>145951524
>At least try.
And you didn't say what those are and why they don't count.

>>145951714
You said it yourself. You gave to completely different characters in Halo 4 and then compared them to two sets of Smash characters you said were similar.

>>145951942
>You gave to completely different characters in Halo 4 and then compared them to two sets of Smash characters you said were similar.
Yes, because you said Halo lacked diversity, and I showed that it has it more than Smash's own competitive scene. So how does it not count?

>>145952129
You showed it had more diversity than two sets of similar characters. I know it's late but at least remember what you typed. What if I asked you this: Do all fighting games have 2D planes? I know thing's like Tekken and Bloody Roar exist but the combat ultimately comes down to a 2D plane. Would you consider Dark Souls to be a fighting game in term of PVP?

>>145952129
What would a white fucking male know about diversity?

>>145952368
>You showed it had more diversity than two sets of similar characters.
And you said that the Halo players are also similar characters. It fully applies. The "similar" Halo characters are several more times diverse than Smash's "similar" characters.
>suddenly bringing in planes of existence
Nice goalposts, Johnny Faggot. Even worse that you suddenly dismiss it in your own post, adding nothing but showing how indecisive you are.

>>145952440
Yes but you're ignoring the other diverse charcters Smash has. Why not compare them? And I ask these questions because it's all about if Dmash is a fighting game or not. You're being stubborn so I want to know ehat you consider to be a fighting game. You haven't once told me. I'd call you a mean name but you refuse to post your GT.

>>145952682
>Yes but you're ignoring the other diverse charcters Smash has.
Two of the three most played competitive characters in Smash's competitive scene are Fox and Falco. They're also the two most popular, with Marth only really existing as the counterpick to them.
>You're being stubborn so I want to know ehat you consider to be a fighting game. You haven't once told me.
Actually I and several other people here tonight have. But you refuse to accept what fighting games are and crawl back to your own definitions. It's why you lost.

>>145952789
Now you're bringing in tourney play for some reason. Didn't you just complain about goalposts?

So you want /fgg/ descriptions of fighting games? The only terms you've brought up is limb based combat. This whole thread has been discussing my points. No. You actually haven't described what a fighting game is.

There are people working at 343 who hate halo and are actively trying to make us hate the franchise.

Patrol case is most likely extra reserve ammo

For loadout weapons or power weapons?

Because the extra ammo weapons would be pretty much useless then other than for the extra magazine size
