bounty hunter best hunter

Also went Hunter.

Lvl 13. Mars just opened up, got a sweet auto-rfile that spits out 60 rounds in a couple of seconds which at lvl 13, makes it a HELL of a lot easier to take out the Kabal (not sure how to spell it - big, 800 pound Space Warrior lookin' dudes).

Couple of drawbacks, the no-spawn zones that have an onslaught of enemies and then topped off by a boss of some sort are brutal when you're not in a fire-team.

The story doesn't progress your levels in tandem with the difficulty. I've found myself repeating missions so I can grind and that still puts me (on average) 1 level below what is usually recommended per mission.

This game is worth so much more than the reviews it's getting. I love it. Even on a 360, the visuals and audio are impressive. Will be repurchasing when I get an Xbox One at some stage.

Dat golden gun.

I'm at lvl 18 and I haven't reached Mars yet. I've been doing Patrols for Bounties plus the Earth and Moon Strikes and multiplayer in the Crucible. That seems to keep me well ahead of the level curve.

This game is worth so much more than the reviews it's getting. I love it. Even on a 360, the visuals and audio are impressive. Will be repurchasing when I get an Xbox One at some stage.

I'm enjoying the game but I agree with the reviews. At it's core the gameplay is fun and it has amazing visuals and audio, but outside of that it does a lot of things wrong. Like, they've built these beautiful worlds but there is very little story being told in them and what there is is just a collection of poorly written science fiction clichés.

Possibly why I like it so much, I'm bias when it comes to Bungie.

Halo is amazeballs.

The reviews I've read haven't been anti console, they've just pretty much all said it's not a bad game but the world is boring and the backstory is shit.

And yes I am a proud member of the glorious pc master race. You used to be one too :-P

The Halo universe is what gives me a massive chub, so each game that expands on it and delivers its narrative to me will be played to death.

As for that fail bike outfit

"This truly horrible cycling kit was sponsored by the City of Bagota. These women &their coaches have rocks for brains http://colombiareports.co/colombia-women-cycling-team-outfit-raises-eyebrows-lot-eyebrows/ …" tweeted by some nutter that was included in the Stuff article - like the cyclists have any say in what their uniform looks like you stupid dumb whore @JillKerby.

Karangahake FTW. We got stuck behind some douche on the way there for half of it, but on the way back it was dreamy.


It was a good impromptu trip. I'll be doing a few more over the coming few weeks for some time away from the normal stuff.
