I can't wait to see the first Waahmbulance! update after the H3 banhammer falls for the first ever time.

Few burned once by fire will repeat their mistake. Of people who take water lightly, many drown.

When you say that people are doing things they shouldnt, im assuming you mean standbying and modding not the mongoose glitch on high ground XD.


oh... thank god, i thought it was because i was driving the warthog after drinking several beers last night.

playing drunk is still okay right? im only hurting myself i guess.


DRUNK HALO FTW!!! ROFL!

And seriously folks, let these guys breathe for a minute. You know they're working on all this stuff, and they just spent umpteen hours making one hell of a videogame. Plus it's pretty cool to hear from these "behind the scenes" guys IMHO. If you don't like the game, go play beer tapper...XD

Wow, I just finished watching Randy Pausch's last lecture and I have to say thanks for recommending it. He's had an amazing and inspiring career.

""If you still decide to play the game you are doing so knowing what you are getting.""


We sure the hell didn't know what we were getting when we pre-ordered it. Go kiss some more bungie ass, clown.


Come on now, lets not carried away here...

it's nice that people will be getting in trouble for boosting [if that's what you were saying]
and some of the letters were pretty cool :)

i just wanna know when more of those questions will be answered from the 150 page asking thing.
kinda lame how you just pushed it off. it's been two weeks and the "weekly what's update" hasn't been updated.....

  • 10.19.2007 9:37 PM PDT

haha they forgot to test the download button for the beta haha

I wonder what merits being on the "Naughty List". I don't think I've done anything bad in Halo 3...

.. Or have I?

i guess there were too many complaints for there to be any in the update, especially the beatdowns. The constant complints about the broken beatdown, weapon strength and grenade strength will not be addressed for a while as it's going to be hard for them to admit then once they do longer to fix

nice cop out... why didn't you just write "we need a break so heres a bunch of nothing". By the way where the heck is "Halo public"?... oh. and we don't live in the 90's ... where's the dedicated servers? you write about people abusing connections... here's an ingenious idea, don't create a game where one of the players hosts. But I Guess you only had how many years to develop it? one? oh no wait it was closer to five! besides all that your game is great. sorry, needed to get all of that off my chest :)

Spawned

To the people getting on Bungie's case for this being a bad update:

Seriously, from the collective thoughts of the guys with the knowledge to make a game, not just louch off their parents and /emo about their sexless lives, like you, F### YOU! I know that's what they are thinking and would love to say it.

I sometimes wonder how any of you neandtherthals even managed to find the internet, seriously. These guys sacrafice their own personal time to be underpaid for a talent that is far in demand to bring a perfect game with damn near perfect multiplayer and all you tard baskets can do is rain on them getting to reflect a little bit about the experience? Who do you think you are? They don't owe you anything, they put out a game, YOU decided to spend money on it, and if you aren't satisfied, you are a bonafide moron or a spoiled brat who needs a gravity hammer to your colon for displaying the utmost pitiful display of the "I am a loser" disease.

Here's an idea, you don't like it, go make your own game, tell us how that pans out.

Freaking morons, I hate the general population of this world, I cannot believe the stupidity.

Good job Bungie. And thank you, for making a great game. Now, I will say what the rest of the whiners meant to say, what can you do to make me not suck so bad when getting into a 1 on 1 melee showdown?

I know this topic has been talked to death, but I'd still like to hear from Bungie (not the moderators), as to why XBL Public had to be cut.

With everything that Halo 3 offers, it's just sad that you can't advertise your Co-Op, Custom, and Forge games online.

Thanks isn't enough from us, Bungie. We'll bring you beer and nachos sometime. And play Slayer together. THEN we'll be even.

Thanks for the greatest game of all time, and thanks for creating the n00bs we get to laugh at!

<3

“I hope you enjoy the game. Turn up the sound and don’t skip the credits!”

-Matthew Burns, Producer

So... Encouraging enjoyment or hinting at something? Just curious.

You’re technically real... I'm considered a myth…

Halospire: We will post your creation and give you credit.

I wonder what he means by the naughty and nice list? Presents of some sort to those that are legit and banhammer for those are cheating? Hmmm....

  • 10.20.2007 12:20 AM PDT

Jesus Poodle-Punching Christ you guys complain a lot. Clearly its not your fault you're not winning, its a bad melee system. Any weapon that kills you is too powerful it's the GAMES fault, not yours, you would rock at this if only it was a better game! It's a video game, you can win, just figure out how to be good instead of blaming your Sucktitude on the game. All that Haterade will only make you constipated.

To all haters: Go Buy A Wii. Then you can play bowling.

To Bungie: Please don’t put me on the Sun Catapult, I'm not with them. Seriously.

Seriously guys... ive read through FIVE PAGES of this topic, and NOONE has mentioned the REDACTED words.
Instead of crying because you dont get blatent information, try to read what is actually being written, and you see alot more.

Interesting Update. Keep it up!

  • 10.20.2007 12:36 AM PDT

I watched the presentation that David Allen recommended (the one from Randy Pausch), and honest to god, I cried a little at the end. If you haven't seen it, go check it out.

Nice update. Maybe I'm just a sucker for behind-the-scenes Dev stories, but I thought the individual comments were rather enjoyable. The whole "Harbinger of Doom" bit is kinda intriguing though. I hope I didn't do anything wrong. >_>

It's not a tumor!

Some of the people in these forums need to get over themselves. Nobody ever guarenteed that every week the updates would have information about future happenings. This is bungie.net, not peoplewhoplayagamemadebybungie.net.

I am sure this update was special to all the guys behind the scenes and i offer a giant thanks to all the heroes who made this game possible. So screw everyone who is so self centered as to take that away from them.

  • 10.20.2007 1:37 AM PDT

I think anyone who put in that much work to make something, just to hear non stop complaining would get a bit discouraged. I have done my fair share but I hope Bungie can see the difference between someone slamming a game and someone trying to give constructive criticism. Try to sift through the losers mad that grenades don't kill everything in one hit, and listen to the fans who just want the game to be the best it can be. I know I will be playing Halo 3 until Bungie makes their next FPS, and I think a lot of people on here feel the same way.

We support you Bungie, even Luke after he tears us to pieces in the forums. If we didn't love your game 1.5million people wouldn't be playing it. I don't buy a Ferrari and -blam!- about the red being too bright. Please at least confirm you are aware of some of the issues in the next update, and silence the mob.

Very Cool. Touching last goodbyes sort of thing for the fans. Appreciate all the hard work Bungie and look forward to other games in the future. Ahem..HALO WARS! BTW are you guys ever going to let us know what these guys did to become famous(cuz I have no idea who they are and how they did that)?
