what happened to the battle for new mombasa? the diorama commercials lent so much to my excitement for the game - to fight in the middle of such a massive battle would've been incredible, and given the number of enemies and vehicles you guys managed to get on screen in some parts of the game, i'm sure you could've pulled it off. i was brokenhearted when i reached the last level and realized i wasn't going to use that plasma grenade... did you make the level, then cut it? did you never intend to make it? is it going to be released for download? WHAT HAPPENED?!

Are you ever going to release an update or something that allows us to search for custom games, and if so, when? By the way, thanks for the awesome game!

Will we see Hardcore in MM? or snipers like in Halo 2?

A remake of ascension, lockout, or turf would be awesome.

okay, simple question. I don't think this will be much of a spoiler. After beating it on legendary, what is the spherical planet type thing in the background? I felt like I should be shocked judging by the music, but instead I'm just confused.

The pointy end of the arrow.

Is there an easier way to see the games credits without having to load rally point alpha and beating the last part of the game? Great work on everything else!

First off congrats on making such a killer game and finishing the fight.
I know there was server issues in the beginning but those are being worked on already, but when will we see 8 on 8 big team battle or just larger party size games in general?

What is the steaktacalur medal and how the hell did I end up getting it? and were is my steak dinner?


The Steaktacular Medal is earned by winning a multiplayer game by 20 or more kills

Questions I would like to address...I believe were already asked, but I will go ahead and ask anyway.

(1) Legendary Ending...very vague. I'm sure this could be foreshadowing for a future release concerning the Halo universe, but as far as an ending goes...I'm totally confused.

(2) There needs to be a patch concerning the multi player armor types. Specifically with the Elite Commando shoulder armor. I've seen countless people asking about it. It is said it is achieved by getting the Killing Frenzy achievement. I have gotten this achievement myself (all achievements, actually) but they stay locked. A few other people have problems with armor pieces re-locking.

(3) Swords on the Pit. Is there any way to remove the turrets? Bringing a gun to a sword fight feels kinda dumb...sure you move slower, but simply having a gun in a Swords only match is no good.

(4) Remove aerial vehicles from Zombie games. Zombies can't fly.

(5) Can you remove the 1/4 second delay on the sniper rifle / beam rifle? All the other weapons have an instant fire rate. Press the button, the gun shoots immediately. It feels a little odd having a high performance weapon such as a sniper rifle acting with a delay.

(6) Why do melee attacks send you flying so far?

(7) Halo (first game)...how does Johnson get off the exploding ring?

Why does Bungie seem to thing that Shotty Snipers is the most amazing game type made?

I know its been said before, but playing it 6 and 10 times a day is horrible, its not a bad game type, just played way to freaking much.

Why is there objective games in halo 3 FFA?

Why cant you have Walkie talkie controler config. plus Boxer, or something like that, better yet why not make it to where you can preset all the buttons to do what you want them to do like a PC game?

When will we see Ranked Big Team Battle?

Lastly, why do the Beta maps play more then the other ones in matchmaking?

The penalty for quitting is a little harsh, sometimes you just have to leave a game.

Can you change it so we can make the monitor move faster in forge(sometimes getting across sandtrap can be annoying)?

Can you add a delete all button in forge(I like to start from scratch and deleting every item on a map is a pain)?

Can you up the item limit on a few things in forge?

The checkpoint system seems a little off on Heroic, is it just me?

Do you know who has the #1 Legendary Edition Spartan Helmet?

Why can't anyone in the forums conjugate verbs?

Ok everyone has to chill on asking for new maps...the game came out a week ago so stop asking....

I would like to know why we arnt allowed to put some weapons on certain maps with forge? I would also like to know if theres going to ever be a way to place objects floating in forge without having to do that "glitch"?
