HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Alright, I'm not rich like most people, and my family can't afford to buy a new computer. I would like to get one, but we don't have, nor do I think we will EVER have enough money to buy one. We got a Delll 8200, Intel pentium 4, RAM 256, Geforce 2 nvidia, 6 year old fuckin Dell computer.

When my parents went to buy a computer I told them "don't buy a Dell" I come home from school that day, and guess what's sitting waiting to be assembled? THIS. I peeked at this thread:

http://www.halomods.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=35499

And as the last post says, I went to that crucial site, I used their system checker thingy that figures out what you need, and guess what it said?

"Your system uses Rambus memory, crucial does not support rambus memory at this time."

I have been trying to figure out a way to upgrade this computer for a while, and got no luck. Never, ever, ever, EVER, buy a fucking DELL! Do you know what DELL is backwards?! LLED! AS IN LEAD FUCKING PAPER WEIGHT! They make the cheapest possible systems, over price them, and make damn sure that you CANNOT upgrade them, and bring you swinging back to buy another one! I just want to fucking KILL those corporate mother fuckering fucktards who make this lame ass shit. There are shitloads of insults and subliminal messages in ads, and products made by corporations, and it damn well PISSES ME OFF. Oh, and these corporate mother fuckers are soooooo predictable! I watched this cell phone commercial:

*Executive type guy sits in chair office*

*assitant enters*

*dialogue happens that I can't remember*

Assistant: so that's your way of sticking it to 'the man'?
Exec: .... maybe.

By which the exec means 'the man' he's talking about the masses. Guess why he says 'maybe'? He's fooling the dumb-as-fucking-hell assitant into thinking the exec is making a joke. No, the whole commercial was an insult.

Oh and may I mention that Bungie, the guys who made Halo, are as bigotted and arrogant as any other corporation out there? Just look at their logo: the world has a streak behind it, it makes and arc around the Bungie logo, thus thew phrase: "the world revolves around Bungie", now looking at the intro logo video:

Camera watches microbes divide and multiply, zooms out as the microbes cover the earth, shows the logo and the world going around Bungie, then a light off screen creates a shadow behind the logo and the earth, adding to the example of a solar system and the phrase "the world revolves around Bungie" And as iff to say "these are the tiny insignificant, illness causing aliens that breed like petty animals and will soon engulf this planet" . Don't believe me? Look at their fucking storyline. In the year 2552, OVER POPULATION has forced billions of humans onto other planets, and are being wiped out by the covenant armada (a just end to an unfit and deserving social class). The game's characters are named after real life slang! Marines, a name for the Marines in the US forces, marines in the game: wear peices of armor that look like nothing more than rusted metal cut out and used as armor, are weak and don't care if you kill one or two of them. Grunts: (grunt is a slang term used by people to refer to Privates) are small, weak, say stupid and often funny things when shot, cowards, can't AIM, easy to KILL.

Bungie is also really fucken cheap. The games they make often make up for a cheap game by making up a story (something that costs next to nothing to make...) to explain their crappiness. Look at the two bridges on the level Halo in Halo 1, they are modeled horribly, and undoubtabley have some intricate piece in the story to make up for that (they are rusted, cut out of rock for no specific reason, go where a river once flowed (my evidence concludes that Halo was once covered in water)). EVERYTHING in Halo looks cut-up. The vehicles, the armor (marines, like I said), the MC's armor looks cut up, forerunner structures, even the LOGO. The game often has cheap mood music to add to the feel of the game, when you should be thinking something other than "let's kick covenant ass to this awesome music" when CORTANA the person guiding you is on the side of the covenant, and is completely fucking with you. I have multitudes of evidence to prove everything I have said here, but no energy to say it here.

BTW, the title, you don't need to boycott bungie, and I suspect none of you will, but it's a prelude to this evidence against bungie, the biggest fucker of them all.

Class racism is alive and kicking! It didn't just end in the Midevil ages.

I have a supreme conspiracy theory providing a basis for every analyzation I make of anything corporate. Plus I'm just good at deciphering subliminal messages.

Last thing, #1 rule, if it looks kinda wrong, it probably is wrong. I'm speaking about sexual subliminal messages hidden in every Movie, Song, Book, Ad, you can think of.[/u]

I believe you're thinking of the Sprint commercial:

Assistant: Is that your new phone?
Boss: Yup. With my new Sprint flexible plan I can talk when I want, where I want. It's my own way of sticking it to the man.
Assistant: But, you are the man.
Boss: Exactly.

Wow, someone's pissed off.

Theyre's nothing wrong with Bungie, or Halo. In fact, a large portion of the gaming community consider Halo to be one of the best games of all time, me included. And you can hardly call the game cheap, they built the engine THEMSELVES, then programmed the whole game THEMSELVES, and made all their own music, models, textures, sounds, EVERYTHING. You have any idea how much time and effort that takes? You couldn't do it, that's for sure. Most people couldn't.

i use a DELL and i filled up my comp with all kinds of crap but i still use it and works fine ..... sometimes

Be happy with what you have. 3 Billion people (one half of the world's population) struggle to live on 2 dollars per day. Be happy that you own a computer.

Cite some evidence that Bungie is 'biggoted' other than your farfetched conspiracy theory that the Bungie logo implies that the world revolves around Bungie.

Don't complain about the plot of a game that you bought. Nobody put a gun to your head and made you buy Halo. The same goes for the graphics, and especially since it was the launch title for a console released 5 years ago (which I might add you weren't forced to buy either)

Whoever told you anything that even remotely implied that racism ended in the Medieval ages is a moron. Racism hadn't even reared its ugly face in the Medieval ages.

very, very, very well argued, some people really don't know how good they have it

oh and i love that chill pill...lol

EDIT: oh, and just so you know, GraphicsArtiste2, Dell may not be the best pc-selling company out there, but i have owned 8 Dell's and they have all done exactly what i need them to do...son, a computer is like a car: if you trash it up and don't take care of it, it's not going to run like new every day, but keep it clean and change the oil (run virus scan ) every now and then and it'll keep you satisfied for a long time...you've got a lot of growing up to do buddy

i agree dell sucks, but i dont agree bungie sucks

why did jks have to close the rant thread again?? Seriouly, stop the bitching. Dells are ok, I used to own one. I'd Probably still be using it if it didnt get dropped along with my PS2 durring my move. like T_H_C said, be happy that you got a pc.

Dells arent the best, but they DEFINTELY have like the best customer support.

I used to have a Dell. It was no 1337 gaming PC but it worked well when I needed it.

Notice you are all saying dells are "ok"

Seriously guys they suck really bad, all my friends have dells and they keep breaking and stuff.

i also hate them because of some creep guy called "superdell" has these stupid rediculous comercials and once he forced his kid to eat a booger because he thought it might be funny. the son of a lala went to court hahahah!

i used to have a dell...

but wow, i applaud the rant

Despite all the jeering and heated arguement, I still have a point to prove.

Last night when I typed this up, I was tired, it was late in the day, as it is now, and also fairly pissed off.

Most people aren't rich.

Honestly, I don't know what I thought when I typed that. Maybe lack of sleep (very important to my daily functioning...)?

Nobody *said* that I hated Halo. Nobody said that I didn't like the game I bought. You may have the assumption that I hate Halo, but I don't. I still play halo 2 on xbox live about twice a week.

Quit it with your crazy conspiracy theories about corporations. It is illegal to hide sublimal messages in commercials.

Oc course it's illegal to hide subliminal messages in advertising! It's not the deepest secret ever kept. I cannot think of a subliminal message right now, but in this case they aren't exactly subliminal messages. They are hidden, but they don't say "BUY THIS PRODUCT". They are sexual subliminal messages.

Ahh, I remember one of my bext examples. In the childrens movie Madagascar, when the bunch of Animals arrive on Madagascar, it happens like this:

Alex (the lion) washes up on shore of island, in a cargo crate, and bursts free. Alex wanders around looking for the other Animals. Alex yells alot, when he hears the Giraffe, Melman. Melman has some curious features for a childrens movie, he is a hypochondriac, takes pills on a regular basis, he, is the Giraraffe all the way to the right of this picture:

http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/contribut ... oto/572055

He has Eyelashes, as none of the other Animals do. He acts very erratic, and I consider the story creators wanted him to be a Transgender indivdual. Why? Because the way he acts, the voice is strange, and the Eyelashes.

When Alex jumps over a log, and finds Melman trapped in his extremely long and cramped Crate, legs sticking out of the bottom, the rest of him inside, trying to get out, as he wanders around yelling for the rest of the Animals. Once alex knocks over Melman, and pulls on Melmans ears to free him (upwards in the box, managing to wedge Melman into the box even tighter). Failing, Alex takes a Beach Tree, and turns it into a long pole, and uses it like a Pool pole (my nouns escape right this moment...) to free Melman. Alex, aligns himself relatively beneath Melman, who is stuck inside the box, with his Bare hiney facing the beach. Alex takes careful aim with the Beach Tree Pool Polle, while telling Melman to be quiet because he is yelling for him to not do this. The Giraffes head sticks out one side of the box, while the rest of him is open at the bottom of the box.

Melman: "no, no, no! Stop! It's Glooooriiiiaaaa!" Just as Alex is about to PinBall Strike melman through the box (impaling the tree right between the Giraffes legs...)

Gloria, the hippopotamus arrives on scene and pops out of her crate, and poses with sea stars and clams shells covering areas where a female mammals 'private parts' would be. Alex turns around to greet gloria, whose name curiously could be derived from the noun "gloryhole", which is a word commonly used in Pornography.

Melman: "oh it actualy is gloria!"
Which has two meanings: 1. he meant to distract Alex for a while longer, or the screen writer was actually had the more Adult version going for this particular scene.

Alex lines up to ram Melman out of the box.

Melman: Glooryhole! Glooooorryhooole!

Gloria (whose name might as well be Glory Hole) arrives on scene.

One can spot the obvious strangeness of this whole situation. Pornographic movies are usually very strange and the social situations they present are often hilarious. Don't ask me how I know so much about this.

Any knowledge, is good knowledge, as I like to say. It helps me in my deciphering of these subliminal messages, and I have tons of facts, figures, and random data, that I know and use.

Gloria goes on about talking to Alex and Melman, when Marty, the Zebra hops over the logs and says hi. Alex is angry at Marty because Marty got the People to send them on a Cargo ship, to the Wild. The penguins who have been plotting to escape from the zoo, hijack the ship the Animals are on, and causes the Crates containing the Animals to go overboard, which is how the Animals end up on Madagascar. And Alex doesn't like this because he likes Steak, and got all he wanted from the People, who loved him because he was great, while Marty did his tricks and was depressed because he is 17 and half of his life is over, without ever seeing the Wild.

So, Alex and Marty, glad to see each other alive, run at each other, in a romantic slow motion thing you might see in a Romance movie. About Halfway there Alex realises why him and the Animals are here, and turns angry. Marty turns to run, and alex chases him for a while, where Gloria, and Melman capture them both by pressing themselves against Marty and Alex, sideways, with the resulting pressure preventing Alex from killing Marty. Soon all the Animals realise where they are and what's going on, and turn around to look at the trees and the island they are on.

There are some curiously strange scenes in Madagascar, one could Assume that the scene writers ran out of ideas for the show, or just the just plain laziness of the company that made this movie (I have a Law, and this law applies to everything: it is not for one reason that something happens, but a combination of Both, or any other plural meaning, this applies to physics as well, but I'm not going into that).

In Halo one, the scene where the MC meets Captain Keyes, when the MAC goes offline, and the whole ship shudders a very strange bit of animating occurs.

Ship rocks with an explosion, Masterchief and the Captain stumble forward, although a foot or two away, you can't help but notice the Chiefs leg going sideways and the MC bending forward behind Captain Keyes, and imagining something very wrong going on here. As I said, strange situations happen in the more Adult situations.

Also when the video playback from the Dead marine is shown in the MasterChiefs helmet, and the marines are fighting the Flood infection forms, you can't help but notice the constant grunting and huffing from the Marines as they fight for their lives. It just sounds wrong.

I have a dozen other things I could write here, but they escape me at the moment.

And BEEF!!! That is exactly the commerical I was talking about .

Let me get onto the question of why I think Bungie is a racist, bigot.

Bungie deals alot with History in their games, one can note the various and plentiful biblical and hisortical referces in thewir games, mostly involving Nouns. The Human race has a lengthy history, but one art is Symbology. Symbols are the very fibers that make up our culture. Symbology is also the weapon of corporations and just about everything.

Let's start with Commercials, Executives form a meeting in an office to create a new commercial, this is the advertising division of a company. We've all seen it, hell, some commercials even take place in these meetings. The recent commercial by Hardees or some company, shows a boss talking to the people at this table in a meeting room, while a yound trouble maker mocks the boss, out of his viewsight, the boss turns and catches the trouble maker in the act. At this point the commerical cuts to a black screen and a narrator says some stuff about something being easy (I think it was a burger commercial for Hardees' new burer or whatever) and says "it's even easier than cleaning out your office". The narrator is of course referring to the trouble maker, who might as well be fired for mocking his boss. Hell, I suspect, this is exactly what happened in the meeting for this commercial. Symbology plays a place here as well.

The Company is showing how disrespectful and rude we are (by we, I mean lower classes, people under this particular bosses rank in the social ladder) with this commercial, by turning this outright insult right back at us, making us think this is just a "funny commerical", a joke, an advertising comical scheme to bring in the profits. Everything I can think of has a double meaning. That includes words, letters, symbols, anything you can think of. If it were not for symbology we wouldn't even have a language, which is basically all a language is, is symbols. The Heart symbol, the love symbol, we've all seen it. Why is this particular drawing the symbol of love? Because it looks like a stereotypical hips and ass. The part where the symbol tapers to a point, being the waist, and the circular parts at the top being the trench between the Buttcheeks.

Halo, has many, many, many, symbols in it. The Icon, or index, Icon, is a word for Symbol. Icons were paintings in ancient rome, which symbolised a persons believe, when the church split into the two seperate churches. Icons were outlawed, because they were such a threat to the church already in power at the time.

Halo, has many, many, meanings, and I have a tremendous theory that I believe solves every mystery in Halo, and explains alot. People like to comment when I post my theories on the Bungie.net, that I have a lot of free time, in a sarcastic insulting way. I, take this as a compliment. Sometimes insults are just compliments to me. But by that I don't mean if you call me a "mother fucker!" that I think that is a compliment.

In forerunner ruins you find alot of those strange circular synbols painted in different colors on the walls. I delved into them and history to find a meaning to them. One symbol, has a circle, with a line going through the center on the vertical plane, and another on the horizonal plane. In History the symbol for Earth is exactly this symbol. Look it up on Wikipedia if you want (which Is where I found out about this symbol). The symbol on this wall also has two symetrical curvey lines going on a vertical axis and getting smaller as they went toward the center of this symbol. I took this to mean a road. There were some smaller circles in the symbols, which I took to be Halo's. If I am correct, I beliece that the Halo's are giant ringworld transportation devices or a road to Earth. My whole theory also links the Marathon series and Halo as well.

The Halo is no completely correct, and I work on my theories in my spare time, of which I have a lot of. I like to think, and my theories about everything are the culmination of my thinking process. It is for this reason that I take the "you have alot of free time..." insult as a compliment.

Last but not least, let's look at Halo, the game, and find out why Bungie is so damned racist, and bigoted.

In the First level of Halo 1, as you peruse through the Pillar Of autumn you meet Sargeant johnson in the Caffeteria, and then you see him later on blow like a plasma grenade in the doorway to the airlock where the covenant attached their landing craft. I once read somewhere that Bungie 'rocks' because instead of the Hollywood fallacy that "the black man always dies first".I have sufficient evidence to prove that there are little MC clones running around, the sargeant was cloned, and that cloning is apparentlly one of bungie's favorite plot semi ender! There are various references and stuff in the game suggesting that there actually are clones of the Spartans and the Sargeant johnson.

So, instead of not killing the black guy first, they kill him over and over again!

In Halo two, on the first level, when Sargeant johnson takes you (the MC) to the medaling ceremony (whatewver it's called...) Master Guns asks the Sargeant this question:

"Hey johnson, when you gunna tell me bout how you got home in once piece?"

Johnson replies: "sorry guns, it's classified".

At this particular moment, Bungie is conveying how fuckin stupid you are as a person. They want you to THINK. Think about how and why Johnson was back in Halo 2, when Bungie themselves has said that nothing in the game is an accident, and that everythingin the game is on purpose! Of course, you think "oh, Bungie just wanted to bring johnson back in Halo two, and didn't want to make up some elaborate plot to explain it!". Well that's not the case. Bungie is trying to stimulate your brain, make you notice things, think for once! The entire ilovebees ARG game was not for advertisement purposes (my law states that it is both...) but to get the player population to think!

Jason Jones said in the video "the making of Halo" "... in a game about well, not thinking". The entire video was so fuckin stupid, cheap, and obvious , but nobody caught it! The video doesn't explain worth a ding dong dingalong about how Halo was made, or anything about it, instead you have Bungie employees lieing through their teeth, not to mention, quite obviously reading a script, on camera, and everybody who's ever watched the video has questioned it! You can clearly see the scripts on the computer screens in the video, you can see the paper one of the guys is reading off of, not to mention that is open in microsoft word in the backround! Jason jones himself acts like he's 'dumb', to fool you into thinking he just doesn't know what to say (he's the project lead fo christs sake!), when he's acting like he's reading a script!

Bungie spells their company name wrong, Bungee, is spelt just that, Bungee, if referring to Bungee jumping, but not I did some research over at wikipedia (one of my favorite intellectual resources ) and found out that Bungie has something to do with settlers, and Canada, whos' symbol is a Maple leave, which is the Symbol of Autumn, (sound familiar doesn't it? *sound of audience gasping*) , the leaf of the Maple tree, which is the symbol of autumn, where as the Ship the pillar of Autumn could mean that the pillar means trunks, and "of autumn" meaning symbol tree of autumn, referring back to canada!

Jeuse, it's getting late, and I've been at this for hours. I' am notorious around my friends for typing up hours long theory writing sessions. My keyboarding skills are failing at this point.

Many, many, skilled modelers and artists have commented that Bungie sucks at making models! Katarn once said that the Battlerifle was a pile of junk!

The geometry in the game is next to substandard. I make better models than these 'professionals'. rossmom makes em better, pretty much any amateur makes better content than Bungie themeselves!

By amatuer, I mean someone who models for a hobby.

Just look into the symbology of Halo, of the world, of everything, and you grasshoppah will see the truth.

Dude... the fact the Sarge dies so many times is a glitch. In the book it describes him not only living in perfect health the whole time, but kicking a large amount of ass. The "classified" info on how he made it is in the books, maybe you should READ THEM. The cutscene where the explosion happens looks perfectly fine, then again, I don't go looking into every game I play apparently TRYING to find something suggestive in it. Really, you're imagining things, there is nothing suss at all about that. For God's SAKE! BUNGIE AREN'T TRYING TO PROMOTE KILLING BLACK PEOPLE, OR ANAL RAPE, OR ANYTHING ELSE LIKE THAT! SHEESH!

And their geometry is pretty poor looking when opened with a modelling program, I agree, but it serves its purpose of looking good in game perfectly. It's no more than what's required for the game, as long as someone can't tell that the 3rd person models are basically boxes, or that the FP on the fuel rod gun has only one side, it's all sweet because that was all it was designed to do, and all that was required of it. I've talked to numerous friends about it, developers make extremely detailed models which they then skin, bump map, whatever, and then they optimise the hell out of it so that it's just enough to still look good ingame but it will look awful in a modelling program.

As for Gloria? So what, it's a common name, by your logic a large number of childrens' TV shows and movies would be referring to porno!

Mate, you need to calm down and stop obsessing over the tiniest things. And thanks for the compliment.

Get over yourself and your stupid conspiracy theories. Just like Rossmum said, just because Sarge dies (or doesn't) does not make Bungie racist. Let it go. And as for Sarge surviving, if you had read the Halo books (You do know how to read don't you?) you would know that they did at least make an excuse (albeit a crappy one) as to how Sarge survives. As for the supposedly sexually suggestive scenes in Halo, that is just wishful and delusional thinking on your part.

Seriously, shut up with this stupid crap about a game, and a Disney movie. There is no underlying conspiracy against transgender Zebras and sexually frustrated cyborgs.

Get a life.

GraphicsArtiste2, shut the fuck up with your half-assed conspiracy theories and overall pissyness, you need to wake up and smell the coffee of the real world and get over it its a f***ing video game, good god man have you no other life than looking at things all over the world and how suggestive things are... it was known waaaaay back in the 1910's that sex sells products, and it has been used ever since. So sit down, breathe and come back when you are chilled because you are |_| that close to a ban. Thank you and good night.
