^x4. Yeah, I've left my tag with no password so people can play social lists on Live when they're in the library. I just tell them not to play any ranked, (because they're mostly terrible). When I play there, I refuse to play anything team-based. Nothing like having to carry three other ridiculously bad players to win. 5/5/2008 9:42:28 PM |

from what i understand fewer EXP + good finishes in ranked games -> faster ranking-up
which basically means i'm screwed permanently with my GT for ever going up again (i have a ton of exp and i hate quitters)

like someone said it helps you level faster. there was also a glitch in trueskill where if you had someone that quit out of a ton of games and had negative EXP and you went into doubles with them, if you won all the points would go to you, making your skill go up much faster.
and also if you go into doubles and win, then go into a social playlist and quit a game you can level up much faster. some people have said you can reach 50 without playing anyone higher than low 40's7/8/2008 10:37:58 AM |

^^ because it's the fucking library. they put video games in the middle of a bunch of work stations. everytime I go in there to do some fucking work, some jackass playing halo is always causing distractions. the library is a place to do work, not play fucking video games. if they wanted to put games in the library, they should have at least created a section for all that shit to be in rather than stick it in the middle of the fucking workstations. it's completely fucking idiotic to put something that is the exact opposite of school work and studying and quiet in the heart of the new section of the library. 7/10/2008 2:33:08 PM |

^FUCK YES I agree 1000000%. Why the FUCK would they put video games in the library?!?!? That exactly what I try to get away from when I go to do work. Its fuckin retarded. There are always guys screaming playing Fuckin Brawl or some junk and its so annoying. And ofcourse they fuckin put it all in the center of the library. What a stupid decision. 7/10/2008 6:56:01 PM |

If you're in the library learning commons looking for "peace and quiet", you're retarded, even without the games. There's always a buzz of conversation with study groups and such; the stacks are where it's quiet, rent a laptop and work up there. When I play, I'm quieter than most everybody and I make sure the people playing with me are quiet. If people are giving you a problem, go ask them to keep the volume down instead of being a whiny bitch on a message board. 7/10/2008 7:33:14 PM |

stop the crying. the learning commons is a dang cool place. i've done a bit of work up there without any real problems. you know the games are there. they don't really bother me so i go there to work. if you want dead silence, see ^. 7/10/2008 7:54:19 PM |

Im not looking for peace and Tiger Guy, Im looking for a place to meet with other people from my classes, and work together on a whiteboard, and the learning commons is the most convenient place for that.
God forbid I try and do work in the library, What was I thinking! I am so retarded for trying to do work in the library!! Its not like I should be able to go sit at a computer in the library to work on Maple or something, the library was built so poor people could play fuckin Twighlight Princess and Brawl all day. 7/10/2008 9:49:03 PM |

~9 floors... you pick the one with an xbox 360 and a wii. that's all i'm sayin. i'd suggest you check out the wolves den or the many classrooms all over campus that have whiteboards and are empty fairly often. if you have classes at centennial you can also request a FOB to get into the buildings after hours and half the rooms are desolate after class times.
who else likes cold storage? halo 1 nostalgia to the max over here

i DONATED a year subscription to the Libraries for the sole purpose of students being able to play on xbox live. this in addition to three games. knowing those idiots, they probably sold it at the book sale for $2.7/11/2008 8:20:20 PM |

^ true and true. you have to communicate in halo 3 to really be able to be good at this game. i quit mainly because of racist people. the thing that makes me love battlefield so much is that you never have to plug in your mic and you can still be a very good and effective teammate, and you r can mute people just the same and still have a good game because almost everything is known to all people at all times. 7/29/2008 9:12:00 AM |

i hardly ever play with the mic
but then again i play tons more social games than ranked
where there are a bunch more shitheads, but they're on both sides, making for easier kills and more fun
you don't need to talk too much on social games...you can communicate most of what you want from warthog/mongoose/elephant horns, or just do your own thing 7/29/2008 2:39:49 PM |

Wow. I forgot this game even came out. Would it be worth picking up if it eventually hits PC? Is the SP campaign as un-engaging as Halo 2?

Using a similar argument... couldn't the people that want to play games do so in the many apartments and dorm rooms all over and around campus that have xbox 360 and a wii?
A side note: Is the place really called the "learning commons"?
