Well, I’m currently using Ignite, but I also use FL Studio Producer Demo (Gonna get my hands on the full version along with the Storm Drums Expansion so I can compose some epic scores.).

BR…eh…I’ll take my DMR any day. Why, I have better aim and 1-shot semi-automatic. 4-shot takes me off target, tbh,

Only because the programmers made it that way. :wink:

In my eyes the DMR and BR should have been equal on a few levels. Specifically in firepower and rate of fire. The deciding factor in a shootout would have been range, The DMR in long to mid, The BR in mid to close. The BR would lose some of its punch at long range due to projectile spread. The DMR would lose some of its accuracy at close range due to its smaller crosshair sight and single projectile. (no magnetized rounds and no room for mistakes)

The Carbine would fall somewhere in the middle but still have a higher rate of fire, but needing more rounds per kill. Excellent at mid range combat and be good at close range and long range, but not as good as the BR or DMR in their respected proficiency.

I think if they had been set up this way initially, there would have been less people crying about the DMR’s performance, and it wouldn’t have turned Halo 4 into the BR game.

Sorry for launching into a BR/DMR debate here. I’m sure that there are more than enough threads in these forums on this topic alone.

I’ll stop now and let things return to there regularly spammy conversations.

Speaking of Halo 4, I might go play some to hone my degrading skills.:slight_smile:

Just made a new thread in Polling Booth. It’s called “Favorite Flood Type?”. I’d put the link here, but sadly I cannot. I’ll put it here in the morning, unless someone else graciously retrieves the link for me before then. Until later, goodnight Waypoint. :slight_smile:

So I have a bit of an issue… I want to change my gamertag but I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO CALL MYSELF! D:

My new online handle is RGL Entertainment but that won’t fit into the 15 character limit.

Someone help. Please. :frowning:

Finally made it to the veteran ranks in ESO. Yay.

How about calling yourself moonacababa?

Kit Kat might like the CC but I like the LightRifle so much. And the Autosentry and pulse grenade.

Look… aren’t they so beautiful?

At least you can put together more stuff riot… I wonder how I’m going to make the music for my universe. - YouTube

Also I liked Spartan assault… even total biscuit did I think. I play it from time to time. I have so many credits… microtransactions don’t ‘kill’ the game. I played it all on my surface when it first came out a day after my birthday. I’ve had lots of fun with it and I like adding skulls to mix things up. I like over shield, Spartan laser, pacifist on.

When oompa says he wants to improve s that, I believe him.

I’ve been wondering about using http://www.etsy.com and make/sell stuff… these took a long time to make but even though they’re broken at the moment, I mamged to make these…

Moonacababa? Really? Where did that even come from? XD

EDIT: Just changed it to RGL Official.

Does anyone else think Red VS Blue latest season is well… Boring ?

I think it was a mistake getting back into Dark Souls. I’ll leave you to guess why.

> Does anyone else think Red VS Blue latest season is well… Boring ?

I actually haven’t watched it.

After a terrible night of hallucination-like dreams, I’m awake at 5:30 AM.

> Does anyone else think Red VS Blue latest season is well… Boring ?

Quite the opposite. I think the new season is far more interesting than the last one. The new CGI spices it up without drawing focus from the machinima, and the sense of purpose gives the story direction.

It looks good.

But I was thinking story wise. It’s quite uneventful. and what happens is comparable to drama (not in a good way IMO)

Comparable to drama, yeah I’ve noticed that. But I still think it’s better than last season. Most of last season was the Reds and Blues getting pissed at each other until the Feds came and captured everyone. But now, we’re halfway through and we’ve established the backstory of Felix and Locus and we’re staging a rescue.

True, Although the backstory for Felix and Locus is a bit Done

But that could be due to the fact that that commander explained the backstory way to… Dramatized…

BTW if anyone missed the post from before. It’s me, Pariah FADE I just changed my gamertag.

Godzilla themed alcohol

CGI ruined RvB.

> Does anyone else think Red VS Blue latest season is well… Boring ?

Well, in the beginning maybe. But I actually like the new developing storyline. Dat cliffhanger… in the words of Caboose, ‘Da DA DAAAAA’
I actually think there hve been some of RvB’s best episode in this season, such as ‘Training Daze’.
…Why… snowman…? GAK

OH MY GRUNT, THEY’VE KIDNAPPED PARIAH!!!

This may sound stupid, having a screenshot of a video game take my breath away, but you’ve done it.
‘Infusion’ is by far one of the greatest shots I have ever seen. Great job, man. That should definitely be a winner.
Me, on the other hand, won the Shotgun theme with an accidental shot, no color filters, and two little Forge mode spawn icons in the background. I’m perplexed has to how I won.

I’d keep making screenshots… but I find it infuriating that I can’t really move the camera angle, or find the color filters. :frowning:

@Riot:
While I have to agree with Oompa on ‘Mystery’ and ‘Voyager’… the others sound really well! The ‘Space Journey’ one would have to be my favorite! :slight_smile:

Good Morning Spartans!

> Does anyone else think Red VS Blue latest season is well… Boring ?

I watched it. I wouldn’t say boring, but its isn’t an action packed roller coaster ride either. It just seems like a lot of set up work for things to happen later on.
I still find it entertaining, though I do get a little irritated that they used the Stalker torso instead of the standard Mk VI torso for the characters.

And where the heck is Church … Alpha … what ever he’s called now!
Last I saw he was tagging along with Carolina … but we all know what strings shes pulling now. I just want to know why?

> And where the heck is Church … Alpha … what ever he’s called now!

I don’t know… and another thing I need clarified is this:
Is that really the ‘real’ Church? Or is he still the redeveloped memory of Church as the Epsilon unit…?

Because real Church was better and not a backstabbing jerk.

Got it right here. :slight_smile:

Out of all the flood forms, I think the infection form is definitely my favorite. It’s also very different than the other enemies you combat throughout the games (using no guns and attacking in numbers).
