Support NeoGAF

[a zoojoo]

Juniors- 1st ones in, Last ones out.

 

[Ramirez]

Someone in the buy/sell/trade thread is selling a 27inch Asus monitor for 150. If I didn't already have my shit all set up I would jump all over it.

How much better are monitors for gaming than say a 32" LCD?

As we bid adieu to this thread, let's reflect upon when MLG used to support Halo and its players. Enjoy the nostalgia while this thread fades away into the sunset:

As a new "GAFer" let me get this straight, when a thread hits 400 pages it needs to be restarted?

20k posts. I don't get it either.

 

[Computron]

Last one out, get the lights.

Apparently it causes server problems

I'm preparing myself now for the next OT.

20k posts. I don't get it either.

Bigger threads cause forum database issues.

Probably some bandwidth limitation or file size limitation on the servers.

 

[Fracas]

The top 15 posters are all either juniors or last wave juniors. It's really that bad.

I'm one of the top posters, and I started posting in February.

Do I actually bother people? This passive aggressive nonsense is getting out of hand. I'd like to think we're all friends here.

 

[Tawpgun]

No gif party? You guys are really slacking.

As opposed to every other day ?

See you guys on the other side! Aggro out.

I think what Dani is trying to say is that the crap posts ratio to good post ratio is pretty bad these days.

Isn't this thread like a week or so old? I know we had SDCC, but eh, lol.

Halogaf is too mainstream

I like how you assume a mod reads this thread enough to hand out tags, lulz.

Look at what you all have created.

Halo |OT7| Double Kill...Triple Kill...Banned

Depends on the LCD. I have a 32inch LCD and the response time sucks for Halo. Newer TV's have "Game Modes" that removes any post processing shit thus making it more playable. Then once you get used to it, you'll be fine. I also find that for me, it's more difficult to play as you go up in TV size.

I feel like when I play on a monitor, it doesn't ever get in the way. You just are in the game playing. Plus a good headset, and the MLG Controller and I'm just so happy. But honestly you can get used to any setup if you spend the time on it.

Shut up Junior!

Touché

How do you even remember who is from which wave? It's not even important at all.

a zoojoo is the only one in my mind that stands out because of his newness, and yes he does post a shit ton. But as far as I'm concerned, everyone else in that top 15 is a HaloGAF regular by this point or earlier.

I think what Dani is trying to say is that the crap posts ratio to good post ratio is pretty bad these days.

If that's indeed what he meant then that's a fair complaint, but the truth of the matter is that a lot of people are here aren't all too happy with Reach, but still want to converse with the community. These threads are going to be like this until Halo 4, you can either try to have some fun with it, or be a grump.

I just didn't know if a monitor offered some clear advantage over smaller TV sets, seems like all of the good players play on monitors...

And yea, when I switched to my 47" it was a pretty miserable experience, I was pretty bummed about it, lol.

I've already posted this on Twitter, but in addition to the new OT, today marks the 117th anniversary of the US Armed Forces Exchange:

GG Monster Balls. Borderlands was fun tonight. Reach was not.

I only have fun in Reach when I search rumble pit with a friend or 2.

The rest of reach is just steamrolling randoms

There is no way I'm gonna be able to stay up late enough to post in the new thread tonight. Makes me sad.

343 needs to bring back Rank, just for the wanabe clowns that play on it, Im in Halo 3, and this is the text sent to me from a guy who just lost against my team:

Him:"Im a 50 get one bk"

Me: "If you were legit 50 you wouldnt had lost against a bunch of 39 and 40"

Him: "lmfao i am u r bad and a virgin"

Priceless!!!!

Surprisingly slow for what appears to be a big ish moment.

Now it will be

Beautiful for everything else tho, I'm sure.

I guarantee if you get yourself a little Halo setup you will play better and be happier playing. You can get a more than acceptable monitor for like 120. Grab a headset, Astro Mixamp and you'll be in heaven. I seriously couldn't go back to playing Halo on anything else. Except maybe a nice tube tv.

I'm not trying to be too serious about it. Half those dudes are indeed regulars or whatever. (Except Tashi =P)

HaloGAF is burning through threads these days, faster than ever. It's not really a good thing. The amount of folks lured here from other communities.... is kinda silly. We always need new members though, always important to grow.

Can' wait to read these threads in a few years from now to see which members stick around. That's always fun.

Input delays.

Standard CRT (tube) TVs have <1ms delay.

A good PC monitor will have between 2 and 1 MS delay while bigger TVs can go up to and above 20ms. It may not seem like much but it does make a big difference.

I play on a Samsung Syncmaster with 2ms delay and 1080p. Great for gaming.

 

[blamite]

Fells like this thread only lasted like a week and a half. Crazy. If we actually get another info drop of some kind before now and H4 launch, I can only imagine thread lifespan would be cut in half.

Definitely gonna look into it next tax return, my 32" Vizio is about 5-6 years old at this point, I'm ready to get a new toy.
