    Hey y'all. It's been a hot minute or two. I was swinging by the neighborhood given that it's roll call time, and wanted to catch up with everyone. Life's been crazy, not just because of the pandemic, but also finally scoring a full-time engineering position over the past couple years.

    Saw that folks are interested in Halo Infinite. I try and play as I can, but I also have ended up watching over the official Discord server. Needless to say, with December 8th quickly approaching (holy moly, 2021 is almost over with...) the server's kinda gone into overdrive.

    Congrats to all the folk who have been promoted, moved to new/larger roles, and the like. In any case, I'm going to try and be more active here.

    I hope things are going well for y'all, and I'd love to hear about the awesome things that have been going on. Smile

    - Zach

    ....this really nice and community building post was ruined because I kept getting distracted by your gif and I read the entire thing like Data practicing his "small talk" subroutine lol

    Yeah, I'm super excited for Halo also, been playing a lot of the "beta". Even with the crappy progression I'm still playing cause it's been forever since I had a new and FUN Halo experience. Hopefully when the full game actually launches the progression will be fixed, or at the very least more playlists and game modes will be available to make the slog feel easier. Though most likely I'm gonna spend the first few days investigating every single nook and cranny of the campaign!

    Yeah, I mean...as an engineer, I do sometimes fall into the "android" trope of late hours, talking too precisely, etc. Sometimes some work on small talk is just what I need, too.

    From what I know/have heard, the team over at 343 is working hard to fine tune and get things in a better state on the progression side. I feel you on the actual campaign. I'm going to want to, but so many IRL work things are going to stack right up against the launch date. I put a lot of faith in the folks at 343 to get things in a decent spot, just because I know how much the whole franchise means to them.
