I know that these aren’t Halo leaks, but I’m just going to inquire now before I continue. @Moderators: Is talking about non-halo/xbox related leaked content alright, or should we avoid talking about all this until it’s officially confirmed?

It’s obviously pretzel.

Ya know… good point. And speaking of CoD devs… the hoverbike design in Gameinformer looks like a Covenant Ghost.

And 3D-printer gun… wat?!

Pretty sure they bring the hammer down on any leaks.

So I’ll get moderated because I said leaks have happened? I didn’t say what were they about or pointed anyone to watch it. Plus one has already been officialy revealed and the second (as far as I know) has been posted on an official website as an official announcement.

Well, in that case I’ll just edit back/post again tonight/tomorrow after the clan war thing. The announcement will be made…

I’m not saying you’d get in trouble, but the post I was intending on making would definitely be against the rules in this case. That’s why I decided to ask first, just to be on the safe side.

@HurryingCandy Thanks. In retrospect I need to read the rules more often. Although I will say that seemed specific to spoilers and not leaks…

If it is for both it ought to be a little clearer in my opinion.

That’s why I last said they should make it more clear.

In it’s current version it lends itself too much to interpretation discussions, Last time in the Halo 4 section when it was about to release

I expect the same before Halo 5

> Nothing said…

Devs always leak their own content to build hype :confused:

Siul didn’t say anything about it really… just asked whether devs purposely ‘leak’ their own stuff… eh, what do I know.

Anyway… Siul, you’re semi-sorted…? Thought you said something about a lockdown penalty kicking in…

I didn’t expect this…nor do I think I welcome it.

IDK. Other times I had been suspended for non-payment about 45 days after the last renewal.

And that was on April 8th so I really don’t know what the freak is going on…

Anyway. I just sold my Anniversary.

Your sacrifice will be for the greater good. When I use the money I got from it to get some help.

And major WTF moment. My mom is about to get a $400000 house from somebody who just died. We found a pool of blood and and red hand mark on the floor when we walked in. We were being scorted by cops (this place is horrible, have a cop next to you or die being assaulted (and still, be careful about that cop)) and those dudes, I am sure they also had a WTF moment.

There’s plenty of homeless people in the area. My theory is that one of them jumped over the fence for shelter inside. Another followed and scared the one that already inside and the latter smacked the other one in the face with a brick/rock/whatever.

As long as nobody was murdered there, we only care about selling the terrain, maybe to the National Bank right next to it.

So much $$$$$$

Defeated Hyperius the Invincible and Pyro Pete the Invincible today.
Used a combo of a Double Penetrating Unkempt Harold (Level 57), a Heavy Gunner Class Mod, A Bee Shield (Level 58)and fully maxed out Metal Storm Skill. Even after the Bee patch, it is still good. Even got an Infinity Pistol after defeating Pyro Pete to add to the 2 I already have.

The pool of blood leaves that theory ambiguous. At least in my opinion.

Candy “said” it best. I would recommend playing it on the safe side, if you have to ask if something is okay, assume no until you hear otherwise. I understand why this rule can be slightly confusing, as I too am one to talk. I got an auto 1 day ban last year for discussing leaks and not even realizing I was. I was talking about music in Halo 4 and it turned out to be a leak. The moderator didn’t want to ban me for it but as Candy showed us, that rule is written out so its one of those rules that are not in the grey area, its a black and white rule stating, “do NOT discuss any leaks.”

Hope this clears things up silent, feel free to shoot me a PM.

Both of those bosses are annoying.

In UVHM.

Actually, every single enemy is annoying in UVHM.

Someone should accompany Austin’s post with the GI Joe theme.

(Did I spell GI Joe wrong? I have that feeling)

Alright. Well, as far as the Battlefield game goes, that one has already being revealed by Visceral yesterday. The “leak” was just them about to shoot the announcement. I assume the same about the other one.

But as you said, play it safe. I will shut up until the trailer/talk/pictures as shown during the clan wars.

I remmeber once getting banned on a forum (horrible forum indeed) for breaking a rule that didn’t exist… That place is unsurprisingly dead now. The Moderators and Administrators could break the rules whenever they wanted too…

@Andy: GI Joe, as far as I know, is correct.
