why is the assult rifle so much less powerful than in halo 1, and will you be making any new 16 player maps out for download hopefully in the next year?

Hi guys. Ever since Halo 3 launched, I had this question:

What's the real deal with the EOB armor? Is it a Bungie exclusive or can someone unlock the armor? IMO that's the best arnor permutation and I would like to have it.

Thanks

Why is it that whenever im checking out the party details or service record of someone on my friends list and i back out it takes me out of my friends list? Not a major problem, but something that could get annoying after awhile if you want to look at details for multiple friends. Also, why is there no rewind/back button for the saved films of campaign? If you were to miss something towards the end of a long level it would be VERY frustrating to get back to it. And lastly my service record on bungie.net differed in EXP from my actually EXP on my halo 3 service record. Is this just a temporary problem or what? Gracias

Why is there no SWAT? SWAT was my favorite! Why doesn’t the brute shot bounce like it did in halo2? Why do shields drain so fast? Ascension? Beaver Creek?

Cry Woe, Destruction, Ruin, and Decay--the worst is Death. Death will have his day...

"Well, I didn't like 'im either, but... damn, amigo."

I'd like to know why certain vehicles are prohibited on certain maps in Forge. Enforcing certain balance rules is great, but isn't the point of Forge to allow players to completely remake the character of a level?

For example, why no Gauss Hog on Valhalla?

What is the planet that we see in the legendary ending? Is it the planet featured in the fourth book?

ok for Head shot honcho. where you need to get 10 head shots in campaign or otherwise. do i need to do it with a sniper rifle or beam rifle? because i use carbines and BRs and get plenty of head shots but i don't get my achievement. ?

Is it a possibility that you'll ever create new armor for download?

FINISHED THE FIGHT 2007

In response to the question "Why do we HAVE to push the direction pad to talk in matchmaking?" I completely aggree. We should always be able to talk to our own teammates.

With the accessibility of the service record, (pregame, ingame, postgame, recent players/friends list) why is it so bare? It only shows exp, total games and campaign completion. How bout TOTAL campaign metagame score? Total MP/campaign kills? Deaths? Total Medals? Headshots? Avg. Accuracy? Best weapon? (can he split your dome or paint corners with the BR? Best map? Best performance? (eg 39 kill 2 death). The service record seems to have the most potential but its bare bones. Most of the tallies i listed are available online, how about making that information on your xbox?

Why can't the rocket launcher lock on to vehicles anymore?
Will you release any new equipment in your updates to the game

Is there a way to disable push-to-talk in custom games? If so, how? If not, why not?

It's "Gashnor", not "Gashner", there's an O in there.

Why did the balance of weapons change so much from the Beta? It used to be people would go for different weapons, but now it's back to rushing power weapons like in Halo 2.

  • 10.03.2007 1:37 PM PDT

Halo 1 > Halo 2 > Halo 3

Why are most of the multiplayer achievements require you to get them in the ranked free-for-all playlist? Not only are they really hard to get but, the population for both of these playlists is is less than 3500 compaired to the total Halo 3 population of over 400,000.

I'm not sure if this is an achievement error or I did something wrong, but I figure I'll ask anyways.

After picking up the Iron skull on Sierra 117 on either Normal or Heroic, I didn't receive the achievement for getting it; however, if I were to go edit the Co-Op point scoring settings, it shows that I have it.

Could this just be an error?

FINISHED THE FIGHT 2007

In response to "Why can't you rewind in the theater, by just pushing the left trigger". I completely agree. This is my biggest beef with Halo 3. Hopefully a simple update will come out in the near future to fix this issue.

When are you guys going to update the playists?

I love halo 3, but the matchmaking playlists, and specifically what types of games are played in each list, suck! (im only basing this off of a few playlists but still...) it seems in team tactical all you ever play is Snipers Elim or Eliminatio and in Team Slayer all you ever play is Shotty Snipers(which occurs way to often) or standard slayer on a select few maps. Team Objective, is just really really lame, skirmish used to be my favorite gametype, but the few levels on objective and the boring gametypes just make it stupid.
