Gaming Lessons: The Spawn System
Bluestrike2 let us know about a new article at Gaming Lessons – it’s all about the Halo 3 spawn system. Unfortunately, it’s not available to the general public; you need to be a member of their Player’s Club. (Membership costs $20/month.) You can read the first couple of paragraphs without paying – this might be enough to decide if a membership is worth it to you. (They’re currently releasing a series of almost 50 articles called ‘Evolving as a Team’ – these are also accessible to you as a member of the Player’s Club.)(Louis Wu 14:01:05 UTC)
