Part 1: Rush to Halo 3 Matchmaking!
Halo 3 finally released onto MCC PC! I rushed into matchmaking as soon as the update completed, and was quickly thrown into a match of Team Slayer on Isolation, a map I haven't even played on OG H3 in about 8 years. It was incredible - the controls and hit registration felt different but the intense nostalgia and energy of the game chat made me feel like we were back in 2007. It seems that the armor I sported in OG H3 is rather popular among the players here (Mk V Helmet, Katana Chest, Security Shoulders); almost everyone I'm encountering has this armor setup! |
Part 2: Squad Assembled!
By the time the evening came around, TCS Cap, DK, AOU Commando, AND members of both Mahd Labs and D00t Eternal assembled and WE BECAME AN ABSOLUTELY UNSTOPPABLE FORCE! MUAHAHAHAAA!!! After completely dominating on several BTB matches of Snipers and Crazy King, we then moved on to 8-player FFA matchmaking and spent the rest of the night killing each other in ridiculously hectic Oddball and King of the Hill skirmishes. It was a great night for everyone involved. We plan to keep up the momentum and meet up again for more gaming in the following weeks. In the meantime, TCS will begin honing its strength in the matchmaking grind. |
