Not sure how this managed to show up.

@halo Is there a mastodon.social of just Halo's twitter feed?

My first real Halo experience was playing Halo Reach with my little brother. My mom asked if I thought he'd like it as a present, and I said it seemed like it was a popular franchise. Course, I never had played it before but it had Co Op so we played together, I ended up getting fixated and then finished campaign too. XD I played it so much I had to buy it 3 times. It also has awesome enemy sangheili, and they became my favorite alien race. Ai and design, pretty solid. Modding Reach is fun too!

How’s that for a verbose title?

Audio Preview #2

I remember playing Halo 3 for the first time when the game came out in late 2007 and seeing this new "Forge" mode. If I remember correctly, it was the first game mode I played of Halo 3 as I played local multiplayer of Halo 2 before the sequel hit. I quickly discovered it's a mode where you can shift objects around and modify some aspects of a map. Later, in 2008, I got online internet and got the free Heroic map pack with the Foundry map and that might have been the start of me taking in a lot of these creation modes in video games in general. I watched YouTube videos to learn about Forge mode things such as interlocking and geomerging. There's no way I would have ended up the same if Halo 3 didn't have a Forge mode.

INTEL 2: ESCHARUM'S INVOCATION

When we were inducted into the Covenant, the Prophets had us settled on worlds ripe with rich resources. Was this out of respect for our people—a reward for our strength? No. It was simply another way in which we served as a method of their control. A blunt instrument for delicate hands. A deterrent to those who would claim more than what the Prophets would allow. And they knew we could not excavate these resources ourselves, for we were nothing but fodder to be expended on their front lines.

But look around you, brothers. Savor this moment. Understand what we are now. We are the Banished, and we are free. We take what we desire, and we use it to fuel our strength and sustain our spirit.

Never forget what Atriox gave to you. Know that all we are today is because of his vision.

Back on Tuesday, 343 released the Squad Battle playlist - an 8v8 playlist reminiscent of BTB modes from past Halo games, with Forge remakes of Valhalla, Rat's Nest, and Zanzibar/Last Resort.

Personally this playlist is the most fun I've had playing Infinite since release. The three maps are very well-made and faithful to the originals, while still implementing features for Infinite's unique sandbox and characteristics that make the maps work.

All the reactions I've seen to the playlist have been largely positive and it seems to have the quickest queue times/highest population out of all the current playlists over the past week. I sincerely hope that 343 makes this a permanent playlist, while continuing to add new maps or modes to it.

I wanted to ask what everyone's opinion was on the playlist, maps, and modes for Squad Battle! What do you love about it? Is there anything you'd want changed? Should it stay as a permanent playlist?

remember the eldewrito halo online mod.
