[quote][i]Five years after the Human-Covenant War, long-lost Spartan John-117—the Master Chief—has been rescued off a Forerunner shield world, Requiem. Pursuing an awakened Forerunner known as the Didact, the Master Chief defeats the ancient warrior above Earth, but at a terrible cost—the death of the Chief’s AI, Cortana.
The attack on Earth opens the door to an emergent threat in the form of Jul ‘Mdama, a Covenant renegade who takes command of the Didact’s Promethean army. The UNSC Infinity, led by Captain Thomas Lasky, is deployed to prevent ‘Mdama from gaining control of Requiem, with the help of a new generation of Spartans led by Commander Sarah Palmer.
Infinity drives ‘Mdama’s forces into retreat, but the victory proves to be a temporary one . . .[/i][/quote](4th time Cortana's death has been confirmed)
(Scruggs from Initiation plays a role)

1 Reply343 day? What a joke

6 RepliesWe have marketers posting on BNET now? [quote]343 Day[/quote] My -blam!-ing sides. They're trying so hard to be like Bungie, but fail miserably at it.
-
LOL 343 day! No one gives a fck.
-
343 day? No. Just, no.

2 RepliesWhat. The. F*ck. Are. 343i. Doing. To. Halo.....

1 Replylol. 343 confirmed to be a poser to Bungie.
-
7 Replies343 Day? They can be much more creative than that. All they're doing is shamelessly copying Bungie Day.
-
9 Replies343 names a day after themselves, trying in vain to be like bungie. 343 gives people 2 new helmets that look like shit, as does all armor in the game. 343 adds another retarded as fck game mode instead of bringing back something like assault or 1 flag. 343 finally adds race 1 year after launch and puts longbow and other vanilla maps in the playlist instead of community forge maps. 343 continues embarrassing the franchise with pathetic graphics novels centered around the worse character ever to make an appearance in any video game in the history of mankind.

1 ReplyReach Commando looks cooler.

13 RepliesEdited by Rex2: 12/6/2013 2:01:02 AM343 day, haha. Bungie's weekly updates always had this genuine feel to them. They always contained something that was either surprising, interesting, or just funny. Maybe part of the magic was that they were not [i]always[/i] about dumb Halo things. 343's 'Bulletins' on the other hand are just straight up shit. They always make me feel like I am reading some cheap Chinese knockoff of Bungie's own efforts. "Look! Here's 343 day! And wait for it ... the Resistor unlock that we promised months ago for our dead game! One more thing!! An inspired comic starring your favorite, COMMANDER -blam!-ING PALMER [[i]because we know how much our fans LOVEEE her[/i]]. Pre-order now and come to our launch party that no one is going to show up to and receive a chance to demo our Halo Mobile spinoff that nobody cares about on a Surface tablet near you" Bleh. Why don't they talk about their next Halo project or at least foreshadow when new information will come out. Why don't they discuss their experience with developing Halo 4, or conduct QA's with the community or interviews with their employees? But NOPE, here's commander palmer and some Halo shit you can buy. Sorry, had to. That was bottled up for a while.

37 RepliesPlease dont post this here, keep this on the waypoint forums where it belongs.

2 RepliesThanks for the info [u]Lord of Admirals[/u]. I find it kinda weird why they took so long to add a Race Playlist into the game (more than a year has passed already). I wonder why they took it out from Halo: Reach at the first place (along with many other Gametypes).
-
6 RepliesWait, did they finally get rid of BS as community manager?!
-
Daily hate on 343 on B.net thread
-
2 RepliesI like you stand up for 343 and halo 4 ... Lots of respect for you. Halo 4 was fun but I feel like custom games is what makes a halo game really fun and makes it last. that just doesn't seem to exist anymore /:
-
6 Replies[quote]-Commando Helmet Unlock[/quote] Because people cannot unlock it themselves, so here comes 343 to baby all the people who can't.
-
4 RepliesNot yet read...Initiation(?). I guess I need to do so before I read Escalation. The latter's story sounds interesting. Speed Slayer sounds like a great time - though I'd be happy if 'resistor never existed - and so does the stream stuff.
-
Too bad i cant play :(
-
3 RepliesHigh hopes for Escalation.
-
Anyone else keep remembering Sadie's Story whenever he says Escalation?
-
343 Day - meh. Whatever makes them happy. Escalation - More Sarah Palmer. And yes, it's by the guy who wrote the campaign, and great. Palmer wasn't annoying there - problem is, she had all of, what, ten lines? Hard to make something seem that annoying with so few lines. Rest of the bulletin - Meh, I'm about done with H4. When they give me news on H5/XB1, let me know.

2 RepliesIsn't commando helmet the dominion commendation unlock? So glad i grinded to get that now.
