Apocalypse Tribe HQ _ Entertainment _ Halo 2 AT Practice times

Posted by: Crushinator Nov 23 2004, 07:48 PM

We need to start getting together to formulate good strategies for CTF and Assault if we are ever going to do clan ranked games. What are good times for everyone who is serious about ATH2 to get together and practice?

Ideally we could have 8 people to practice 4 on 4 games.

neifirst plays almost nightly, so if you guys see him online, I'm sure he wouldn't mind practicing. :D

Fridays & Saturdays I can do all nighters as usual with you guys. Come winter break (3 more weeks) and I'll have a full month.

Hopefully we can get some practice in this Thanksgiving weekend.

Yeah, I am definetly down for some hardcore halo-ism this turkey weekend.

i need a new router first, but when i do 2 on 2's at home with friends, we've figured out some nice things to do on assault at least already (small stuff)

Every other Saturday if not every Saturday all nighters are a good time for me. I'll also be on during the day today and many other days.

Posted by: Crushinator Nov 27 2004, 05:26 PM

Everyone that can, try and be on tonight at about 9-10 PM PST, let's see if we can get something together.

Posted by: Crushinator Nov 30 2004, 08:30 PM

OK... last week's practice didn't really pan out. Let's try it again with a little more planning.


Which night would people prefer, Friday or Saturday nights? We could probably do both, actually if there are enough willing participants.

Count me in for Saturday night this week. All night if it goes that long.

Same here.

I'll be on, for sure. Oh, heres some news of the recent auto-update:

QUOTE

1. Two brand new playlists - "TEAM SLAYER" - You wanted it, now you've got it. All team slayer, all the time. This is a new ranked playlist so everyone will be able to battle their way to the top of the leaderboards all over again.

"RUMBLE TRAINING" - This is a new unranked playlist that shares the Rumble Pit playlists. The best part about this new playlist is that you can enter into it with guests and even as a party of up to 8 players.

2. Freshening Existing Playlists - The various gametypes and maps for the existing gametypes have been freshened up and the various weights have been adjusted to create more variety and take advantage of more of what's available. Foundation has also been added where applicable.

3. Big Team Battle - You can now enter this playlist with a party of up to 8 players. However, please note that entering into playlists witih large parties may result in longer wait times as the game tries to find another party of 8. We'll be monitoring this.

4. Major Clan Match - This playlist now supports parties as small as 5 and the team imbalance has been changed to 1. So, no more 6 vs. 8 matches.

5. Game Times - The match time limit for nearly every gametype has been extended to allow for more carnage.

6. Miscellaneous Tweaks - A number of other little things have been adjusted like removing the Banshee from the Head to Head matches on Ascension, removing the glitched "Sudden Death" from some Assault games that could cause the match to last forever and we even added a CTF variant featuring Wraiths and turrets on Coagulation.

I'll be on most of Saturday and probably on all Saturday night. Just send me a message when you guys get on that night.

Posted by: Crushinator Dec 4 2004, 06:31 PM

I'm heading on Halo right now, so whenever enough people get one, we'll start forming up. Looks like so far Zio is the only one online.

Posted by: Dive Dec 4 2004, 10:36 PM

Sorry guys I am going to be late. Good luck and I hope to see you online.

Posted by: Crushinator Dec 5 2004, 01:39 AM

So...yeah, Crush, Kaz and I were the only ones on. Where were you guys? D= It was still fun even with 3 people though even if I did disconnect out of half of those games. Maybe we should make plans again for this?

Posted by: unitself Dec 6 2004, 09:12 AM

I got totally side tracked until it was too late.
Very sorry about that.
Yes, let's plan for it again!

Posted by: Kazicht Dec 7 2004, 10:07 AM

We'll probably be on again for this Friday and Saturday night.

Friday is a no go for me because I am going to be at a Halo 2 party. Not sure if I can make it Saturday either. =/

Posted by: Crushinator Dec 10 2004, 08:22 PM

Let's try this again, this Saturday 9 PM PST.

Posted by: Zio Dec 21 2004, 08:16 PM

Well as it seems that none of the practice times have gone to well...are we just scratching the whole AT practice times thing? I'm gonna be on for a few hours later tonight if anyone cares. Probably just going to play with some people from school though.

Posted by: Zio Jan 6 2005, 06:46 AM

Well, since it looks like a few more people have gotten an Xbox and Halo 2 for Christmas or whatever maybe we should set up another time for this weekend?
