I'm more interested in this second dual desu

During the human/covenant war, why did the humans do better against the covenant on the ground?
Why didn't their technological superiority translate to ground battles as well?

>>186393127
No other race has the determination and absolute desire to conquer completely than humans.

>>186393127
>During the human/covenant war, why did the humans do better against the covenant on the ground?
I mean, they did better than they did against them in the air, but the covenant still outperformed humanity on the ground in most occasions, it just wasn't as big of a difference.

>>186392979
Elites can't sword charge so shotty man wins

I'm at the point where I'm not even looking forward to it anymore.
It was always just going to be a mediocre 2D indie boss rush but I was willing to put that factor aside because of the uniquely interesting visuals.
At this point however, the wait has probably negated that effect.

>>186398367
Regrettably, probably this.
But I'm still holding out hope.

Colony actually has the advantage over every single other Leader in a 1v1 matchup. Few know this.

>>186398659

>>186398659
You're probably right, but I'm honestly not interested in getting gud at Haah Waaw. I'll play the expansion, but I won't put extra effort into it like I do with the FPS campaigns.

>>186398712
BtC is wrong then. A ball of Reapers and Hunters with Skitterers placed appropriately will push back any force, bar maybe a weird Vulture/Sniper blob. As long as you don't panic and blow your Leader Power load on like two Marines, Colony is the best in 1v1s.

You guys know Colony is a hard counter to Serina in early game. Skitterers beat Hailbringers and Captain+Skitterers beats the Bison. Once she gets Raven's though it can get tough.

>>186413514
When I play Serina I go full D every time for the first 7ish minutes until I have enough ravens to begin a map sweep. Holding off for that beginning period can be tough, but if I last, I proceed to win pretty much every time.

With the focus being put back on Master Chief, the storyline not taking anything from the books or spin off games (I'm looking at you Halo Wars 2), the return of split screen and lan, mp having everything at launch, Forge and File Browser being in the game at launch, possibility of enemy AI being in Forge, and black undersuits returning in Halo 6, is anyone interested in Halo 6?

He'll already have a niche if only because Heavy Grunts are the only true AA Infantry unit in the game, but only time will tell.

>>186428797
REMINDER:
If you have an odd-numbered gamerscore, playing invasion on the noble map "Breakpoint" and winning on offense will restore your gamerscore to a multiple of 5.

>>186429128
We should also try getting 8 people together and queue BTB, I really want to play tempest.

The more people we have with the DLC, the higher our chances of matching other people who own it. That's how they patched it to be after removing the DLC playlists.

Now we're in overdraft territory. You can still contact me about wanting a spot, because there's a really good chance at least one person will drop out at the last minute, but assuming nobody does (again, somewhat unlikely) this will be the full roster of players.

>>186431117
>Where's everyone from blue team?
Droid can't make it, and I still have yet to hear back from Muffin despite reaching out to him personally. Anyone else not in here that was there last time simply hasn't contacted me.

everyone from red team last time is on there so i really hope there are switch up of the teams just saying.

Blue bros, somebody needs to get in contact with Muffin so we can get him on that waiting list NOW

You might find it hard to believe, but did yiu know that I, THE ONE BIG RED, your best friend, your idol, the person that represents everything you one day hope to become, is capable of making mistakes? I know, this must be bizarro /hg/, amirite?
Anyway, shadehaloxz informed me that he had actually been on the list for a while, and he's correct. I checked and dating back to >>186405526 he was included, and I guess i just subliminally forgot about him. Sorry brah.

2. Neirn

Neirn, my main man, please understand. You and Wizards got back to me at the same and since Wizards wasn't invilved last time, I onky fekt it appropriate to give him a leg up on you. Plus, I had already prommised CDR the first overdraft spot a while ago (provided he gets back to me by midnight or else I move him down to #2), so you're at #2 on that list. I feel pretty bad about this.

I think a good way to solve the extras issue would be to just do some rotations throughout the night. This means some people wouldn't get to play every match, but that's worth not having people just sit out. As long as we can settle this bwforehand and not in the middle of the night, it shouldn't be a problem. I'll volunteer for my team to step aside for a match or two if need be.

You have that backwards. It was the youngins that loved Halo 3 more than crazy bones and newgrounds. The older crowd that had already been young for Halo 1 and 2 had a lot of criticisms. That is what the cycle shows. Not what the "majority" think at any one point, but what the pre-existing fanbase thinks. The important thing to note about Halo 3 is that most people that played it in its hayday had never played Halo 1 or 2 except maybe at a friend's house. Hell, most of them didn't even own an original Xbox. The pre-existing fanbase was in the minority. Hence the term "Halo 3 babby"

This. By the time Halo 3 launched, the average person that made Halo CE popular was leaving college or had already left.
The original Xbox crowd was much older than the average gamecube or PS2 player.
