It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses. Hit It.

It's time to start building that slingshot.

You could imagine Ken Kutaragi in it, couldn't you. xD

Ps. What happens after that???

I have a bit of an issue. Not a single game has worked on my xbox. My xbox live works fine as well as other games and I have an open NAT. But every time I try to go into matchmaking I get the "cannot connect to Halo 3 server". Every time. Is this a problem that is fixable or is it possible for my internet to be affected in some kind of way that would prevent me from accessing the servers while I still have an open NAT? And yes I have been to the thread pertaining to this subject.

Any, and I mean any input or suggestions would be very appreciated.

Is it possible to change map default attributes using Forge? That is to set map default primary and secondary weapons, and map default grenades.

I just adore pretzelzzz! The go great with mayonaise. MMM!

why wont a bungie employee give us a clue on whether or not the recon armor is unlockable(though i think it is) or a clue on how to get it?

two questions on sandtrap: why cant you get the elephants out where the explosions are?
and why cant you take the elephants off? so that i can have none or one on the map instead of always having two? (forge)

I'm wondering if this is where we ask questions for the next "What's Update", But if it's not minded, then I'll ask mine anyways.

Just two questions.

1. I find that the Veto system is a marvelous addition to matchmaking, but it's imperfect. Is there any way that, in the future, we'll be able to veto just the map or just the gametype (x for map, b for gametype, persay)? If I like Guardian in Lone Wolves, but don't like Oddball, I'd really like to play Slayer on Guardian instead. I do understand that some maps don't have more than a single gametype to choose, or that some gametypes only appear on one map, but in such cases only one veto button could be available.

too long; didn't read it: Can we have two veto buttons in matchmaking, one for the map and one for the gametype?

2. The current matchmaking offerings are well-rounded, but one thing is missing; movement speed changes. Is there any way in the future that a matchmaking playlist could be made where gravity and movement speed could be heightened (or lowered, if the gametype calls for it) so that a vareity of nonsense and skill-based games could be played on non-default settings? Best fromat would probably be 4v4 or a social slayer following of 5v5.

too long; didn't read it: Will there be a matchmaking playlist where things like movement speed and gravity are changed?

Thanks for reading. If this isn't where questions should be put, could someone email me where to put them (chances are I won't double check here, unfortunately) or just copy and paste this post into the correct thread? email is v1tal_in4mati0n@yahoo.com . Thanks alot for your time.

What they say about the sniper rifle taking more skill is false as ive played halo from 1-3 i have plenty of skill at the game and i cant make it work. It lags and i think the only possible way to use the thing is if i drop my look sensitivity to 3 or lower. It lags very badly and is all but useless skill has nothing to do with it .

Halo: CE > > Halo 3 > Halo: Reach = Halo 2

If that were true, kill me now...they were being sarcastic.

How is the MVP for the game chosen?

Many times, someone who does not have the most kills or the best KD Spread gets the MVP, and I can't discern how it's decided.

I would like to know whether or not bungie will reset the ranks as they do with an important update to the game, and if they will, will they be restting ranks or only the level associated with the ranked matchmaking playlist. In other words, will my EXP ever get erased when they reset ranks?

in a weekly update that was released during the muiltiplayer beta a question by TripleTerror was asked,
Q: Is there any possibility that beta testers will get a special gamerpic or a background on our name bar in the game, like bungie.net was in Halo 2. A few people including myself would really like to see this.
A: Anything is possible. There will certainly be benefits to players who sign up for a Bnet account and link their Gamertag.

i was wondering if the people who played the beta will get anything? Adding my experience points to my account wouldn't be bad.

No I don't think so. Just like this one falsy forum that said the H3 version of Zansibar would look like a blown up deserted wasteland, and then bungie did the exact opposite probobly just to piss them off. So no, I don't think you can trust the videogame paparazzi.
