I'd like to start doing weekly game nights, but let's keep it casual this time - I'll give more advance notice for an "official" one.

What: Halo 4 BTB
When: Wednesday, July 17th at 9:00pm EDT

Why: Our fireteams could use a good scrimmage before venturing out to the worlds of Destiny. The game might not be out yet, but we can still spend some quality time with our DBO comrades.

How: Send an XBL message or invite to "ncsuDuncan" and I'll do my best to get you in the party. It's first-come, first-served, but we can always pull together a second lobby if enough people show up. Keep an eye on this thread.

Don't have Halo 4, but still want in on the fun? I'll be streaming gameplay here:

Stop by and join the chat! (I've got a new capture card setup, so hopefully everything goes smoothly. This week is a test run, so don't be surprised if the channel catches on fire.)

I will most likely be there, but I'll warn you guys right now, my charger for my headset is missing, so I will be the strong silent type.

Played with HBO'ers a couple days ago and I've been playing quite a bit since. I'll be there! :)

Now where did I put my mic…

I've never played with most of you. I'll see if I can make it :)

Game nights sound like a great a idea. I'll probably join ya'll next time. I need to renew my Gold membership.

I'm at work til 8 tonight, might be able to get on for a while.

I always enjoy playing with HBO'rs (of which most of us here are!) so count me in!

That sounds like fun! If I can find the time I'll jump on!

...have to find my H4 disc first though...

I'm new around here (new to DBO - not Halo/Marathon/Bungie fandom), and I would love to join in tonight!

Just kidding, DBO isn't that old and I never really contributed at HBO, so I may not be that old on the bungie.org forums, but as said in another thread, you don't have to be an active DBO member to participate in DBO activities :)

I'm pretty new around these parts (even though I know some of you from other places), but I'm always up for some BTB action! :)

Great idea! I'd love to join in after I put the kiddos to bed, but being on PT might be an issue. I likely won't be online until close to 12:00am ET.

Any other west-coasters going to be on tonight?

I'll most likely still be on at that time since I'm in MT. You can add me on XBox Live to see if I'm on: XenosKB

Cannot join as i will be busy with something else, plus just started using this forum. Maybe in the next one.

No worries. Welcome to DBO! I was wondering when you'd show up. ;)

Send me a message on XBL or stop by the stream chat:

twitch.tv/DestinyBungieOrg

(I can't promise the stream will be very exciting this time - I'm mostly just testing out my Xsplit setup.)

Well noticed the forums some time ago, have lurked for some time finally going to move most of my destiny discussion and bungie community activity over here.

That was fun. Last round of King of the Hill overloaded my brain with too many colors. That's for the good times everyone!

I had to do this to hear anyone in that party. I'm assuming you had it set up to mute everyone.

Even though I clearly couldn't hold my own tonight, I had a blast playing with y'all and I look forward to doing it again soon!

Sadly yeah. Thanks for the tip!

Had a blast! Can't wait for the next one! :)

Good times! We should play Halo 3 or Reach though one of these times.

That's the plan. ;)

I can't wait to have more Warthog wrestling matches!

By the way, sorry for being such a vehicle whore whenever we were on Ragnarok. :P

That playing Halo with friends is the best way to play Halo. Never really mattered what my score was because I was having fun anyways.
I really enjoyed near the end when we played multi-team, never really did great but talking one on one with you guys was a blast! I'm glad I got to know a couple of you better!

It was a bit like speed dating, haha. Quick conversations to get to know fellow DBO/HBOers.

Definitely agree! The multi-team matches allowed me to get to know a few of you one at a time for 5-10 min in between lobbies and big team madness (which was also supremely enjoyable although for different reasons). I liked that we didn't just stick with one playlist the whole night. Can't wait until the next time I'm able to join in!

Is that what we were doing? :p

They just never stop. Wu has the secret nade perk that lets you hold 7 stickies, and they always hit their mark if there's a vehicle. It's awful. :(

Once. It happened one game. Geez. It's not like you didn't go +10 or something in that game... (I can't tell exactly - it seems to have vanished. I can only find two of the three Ragnarok games we played last night.)

(During the game on Settler, I came upon Duncan not moving - I think he must have been dealing with his stream or something. I threw a sticky at him - and it went right through him. Didn't hurt him a bit. Woke him up, though - he turned around and ran away.)

I think you were just wearing the sticky-attracting vest or something.

Claude, I feel like I killed you more with my light rifle that night than anyone else, I swear every time I aimed across the map at someone, it was you.

No lag, just legendary hologram skills. Yeah, that's it...

It happened in three different games! And I was in a Banshee at one point when it happened. At least I thought it was your sticky. If not, it's still your fault! :P

He put his Wu-Be-Gone spray on.

Need Duncan's Wu-Be-Gone spray! :P

Good times! We should play Halo 3 or Reach though one of these times.

That was a lot of fun! Thanks for tolerating a grizzled ancient who's skills have deteriorated. I'd be up for Halo 3 and Reach anytime!

Billy Mays, is that you?
