i agree and the their cheat system doesn't work well either because kids make new accounts and play on them. Also it will be hard to find a game without a mod in it! And it took me awhile to get 38legit without mods!(but love the new updates though

no im not entertained, i feel like all the people who got their level up legit, even through the modders, stand-by ers, and bridgers, are gettin all their hard work taken away from them, and then FORCED to buy the new maps or else we can't play matchmaking. Hopefully all these cheaters will have problems doing what they do best (cheating) and we will be able to have fun playing games against people who got their levevls legit. I still say its real discouraging though to people who were trying to level up and now they're gonna be reset to zero, kinda makes me not want to play until Halo 3 comes out.

OMG! You are evil bungie, i hate having to restart! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!...not.

OK, first off, its a war game. What happens in war? are you matched up against people of your same skill by a computer? are you? If you think yes then i hope to god you join the army and get a nice little oak box to put your own ashes in.

"RAAAAAAAAR! You are evil bungie! HOW DARE YOU CHANGE A NUMBER! who do you think you are, the makers of the game? what gives you the right to change a game that YOU made? you sickos... go. hump. your. couch.
...Good Job Bungie, for "ruining my day", you so "lost a fan", and I know you MUST. CARE. SO. MUCH. about my decision to quit even though Im probably gonna not play for a day then come back."



Thanks bungie! I like the idea and thanks for the new maps,Oh, and someone pleeeez qoute me and start telling me off like a child, I lost a couple of my ranging targets and look forward to redecorating the ground red.

lol, well said, all the people that are complaining about the resets are most likely cheaters any way, or in some way cheated to get as high as they are at one point in time or another. I also love the idea of resetting them

So please forgive me for not reading through 13 pages of comments to mention this, but I wanted to bring these up in the slim chance that they have not been covered.

Saaaarf London?


Fusion Cores can be used as weapons, or as traps.


Why was 'Fusion' highlighted?

Now we can work hard to get our ranks again. :>)

Dear whiny little kids:

4 bucks isn't that much money at all. Bungie is not a charity, of course they want to get paid at the end of the week. These new maps took time and effort to create, so you should be grateful. If you would rather spend your 4 bucks on something else, then go right ahead, but don't expect anyone to care that you are a cheapskate or feel sorry for you that you won't be playing the awesome new maps. There's no free lunch, and crying about it won't make a difference. I laugh at your tears.

And stop complaining about how hard you worked for your rank and how unfair it is that you will be losing it soon. It's a game, stop pretending there's any hard work involved. If you didn't enjoy it then you wouldn't play it.

No one promised you that your rank would last forever. Think of this like the start of a new baseball season. It doesn't matter if two months ago you won the World Series, because that's history. If you're still the best then you have to prove it all over again.

Not only is it a fresh start for everyone, the game is a little different too. There are new maps to learn, new strategies and tricks. There are new players and some of the old players have left. The average player is probably more skilled now than he was two months ago, which means that if your skills haven't improved then your rank won't be as high. In other words, the level of skill that used to be worth 30 might only take you to 25 these days.

The game is changing. It's dynamic. It's alive. You might not like these changes but without them the game would stagnate and die. Be thankful that you get to play something fresh. Just take a screenshot of your old rank and put it somewhere safe if it means that much to you. The rest of us are going to move on. The next season begins soon. Prepare yourself.

The only thing i don't like is the fact that matchmaking is updated so fast to accept the maps, and that I have two Xbox's and two accounts so would I have to download the maps twice and pay twice which I don't think is fair.

Rank resets ... big deal. If you don't wanna play against the good guys, just wait a few days for them to start raising their levels and then play.

wow, honestly if bungie wanted to do something for all of us, rather than wasting our time releasing maps to a game thats soon to be obsolete, it would be to find a way to permanently stop the cheating. If this update doesn't completely stop the cheating you are just hurting all of us legit players again just like the last reset cause all the cheaters will have to get their levels again. granted i get standby-ed every other game now anyway, and its impossible to get a game in slayer above level 39 legit... but the cheating has decreased since the last update. Let the damn cheaters have their levels so we can actually enjoy a few games online. OR make a update that hides the ranks so that only bungie knows what level u are, then there wont be any reason to cheat anymore :)

rank resets huh? well i hope all you guys at bungie know that you are promoting more cheating by doing this. all the cheaters out there will want thier ranks back and will most likely cheat every match within the month of the update. i hope you guys have something up your sleeves for this problem.

  • 04.08.2007 5:19 PM PDT

i wonder if the new banhammer system will include super bouncers? or will bungie stand next to their:

"Many people are also aware of the "super jumping" phenomenon that allows players on some maps to jump to extreme heights. We are monitoring this situation for long term impacts to game balance but we are not banning people who do this simply because it's too widespread and is something that's basically built into the map. Anyone can do this if they want to though it is difficult to pull off in many cases. We will continue to monitor the impacts this bug has on our game."

statement? From the sound of it it seems like theyre concentrating on the a**holes who can shoot a full clip of the human sniper in 1 trigger pull or being able to super bounce without doing the specific task to enable the glitch... either way, its about d**n time they updated it...

as for the stat/rank reset... i dont really care because it was fun to go through the ranks...

Reseting ranks, o come on! This is rediculous, why can't bungie just give us free maps, it always has to be something in return like reseting ranks. This is getting really proposterously ludacris. And if bungie is thinking that reseting ranks keeps halo2 players keep playing, it definitely does not. I guarantee you almost all lvl 35's and up are gonna quit halo2 because of rank resets.
