Going to get back into the swing of things now that the holidays are over. Too much running around during the last two weeks to play any significant amounts.
By PsychoRaven Go To PostMan having not played in a bit I'm rusty as hell. I was getting demolished in Warzone. lol
First games of the new year I jumped into a friend's fireteam and got obliterated in SWAT (my first matches in H5). Definitely not used to its feel.
Also I think Arena/regular Breakout obviate the need for a SWAT experience for me now.

By YourExWife Go To PostStop trying to make me feel unsafe…you need to go to the diversity lounge
By Mix Go To Postyou need to go to the diversity loungeShould take a picture of it this time for the people who think I'm making it up. Like, how fucking shitty is your insecurity bubble that you actually need a "safe space" at a fucking geek convention with a bunch of other fucking geeks who are literally there to be fucking geeks and couldn't care less about whatever you've imagined to be a problem?
It's so stupid and I find it pathetic.

By FATstronaut Go To PostTRIGGERED!
Such bait. Very would prove my point for me on "other forum". Much wow.
EDIT: Not to mention the resources could be better spent on more exhibit space or panels.

Reminds me of when I had a bunch of hot girls from my uni last year at my house and we all watched a bunch of movies. After watching them all they promised me they would not tell the police if I had let them go.
You see I got a bunch of clogged pcp pipes that export water out the top of the house (i live in the south so rain is common) and they've been leaking water so i need to get bleach and unclog the thing
I think it started happening a few years ago, but I only moved in this house in '08 so it might have been before that year actually.

I staffed Otakon for 10 years, and have been to PAX East/South i think 4 times now plus others...
While rare, I have seen some really shitty things said/done to cosplayers. So it doesn't surprise me that as these events grow in size, more shitty people show up and harass others. Though personally, I think the focus should be less on designating a "safe space", acting like your convention is checking a box off. It should be focused on encouraging victims of harassment to report it AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. It's insane how many people wait until after the convention to report stuff, and then it's practically impossible for staff to act on it...
I just watched the RLM review of Episode I too, Rokk!

Nail, meet all the heads.
I don't see how it prevents anything either. It's just a place nowhere near the main convention/expo space where people can learn about how certain people are guaranteed to be victims (even if no actual thing has occurred to them at the convention, just in general). Just encourage people to act like adults and deal with their problems responsibly. I could even see if it was just a place where you could take a quick rest during the day or whatever away from the hectic bustle of the convention space proper, but as a "diversity lounge" its explicit purpose is a support and info area for lgbt, minorities, etc. It perpetuates this idea that they're gonna be victimized and are in need of special treatment.
It was my understanding that the entire point of PAX was that *it* was the safe space already. Everyone can come and celebrate their shared love of nerd culture however they like and do it with others that shared that love. What purpose does the "lounge" serve? Walking the convention is a true diversity lounge. As a personal example, I live in south-central New Mexico. Virtually everyone here is hispanic or white (the minority) or a mix (and almost 100% christians too). That's basically every person I meet or am exposed to on a daily basis. At PAX South last year, I saw every kind of person under the sun, and then some. People weren't afraid to be themselves and it was more diversity than I see all year long. All kinds of cosplay (although there was a large amount of Borderlands characters, thanks to Pitchford & co's large presence), as well as traditional dress, etc. Every person was just there having a good time and even outside of the convention, the locals were great too.
Like, the official PAX security policy says report anything bad immediately, and they have the resources to handle these incidents. Does implying that certain groups are more prone to being victims do anything to stop those who are gonna be dicks?

Here's a Chill Out/Cold Storage remake that looks damn good. There's better use of textures here than any of the developer made Forge maps.

In all seriousness, Reach on One sucks asshole. Its framerate drops constantly and I'm not sure if it even runs at 30 fps like it does on 360. It's almost unplayable.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iiQ3J-KpIo0 Here's Reach at 1080p and 60fps btw
By JBird20022 Go To Postput it on firefight LASO on Corvette with invunerablity and watch the frames drop like fliesI'm almost positive that if I do this my Xbone will go up in flames.
In fact that's exactly what i'm going to do
FOR SCIENCE!
He actually did it, the mad man

The recovery frames for spartan charging needs to be lengthened, tired of being punished for not sprinting with my AR out.
Especially if you're going to have maps like overgrowth with 5 foot wide corridors everywhere.

Here's a neat Mario-themed Forge map. Complete with exploding Bobombs and working teleportation pipes. They should add some moving platforms.

Now imagine if we had all gametypes here, or even....RACE. The possibilities are endless. C'mon, 343, your game has so much potential. Don't go forward 2 steps and back 3.

Hey those of you that are still here. What's your favorite beverage to have while playing Halo? I ask for no particular reason other than to see how I might liven up my own sessions. At the moment a nice Rum and coke does me well.

I'm really impressed by the Cold Storage and Pit remakes. I expected it would take much longer for people to adapt and exploit the new system for good-looking maps.
Had a 1000-40 Warzone stomp,
but this time I wasn't in a full premade. It was just me, my brother (SealedSeven), and Zorplex... We had 3 people on our team quit/drop but it didn't seem to matter. They just put up almost no resistance. First time I've seen such a lopsided Noctus game.
