TSL Sgt Hartsock: "what info were you looking for?"




Ummm, I don't know. Maybe something about some bug fixes, or their take on maybe slimming down the time frame of a same time melee or some info on some maps, or what all we can expect from a patch and when thatwould take place...etc. Did that answer your question?

Dont put the master chief to rest, you left more of a cliffhanger in halo3 than you did in halo 2.

My website will be updated, soon hopefully. Check back, it will be sick.

Damn, I was hoping for an actual update, nice to see, but a big letdown.

I just want ranked BTB so bad.

I wanna know about "The bad people", are they the ones finding ways out the boundaries? oops.... I will stop then.. =), also i was reading one, and it said
-r-e-d-a-c-t-e-d, something like that, crossing out the word? wth(eck) was that?

-Edit

I see something wrong with the melee, I shoot some guy 20 times and melee him, he dont die, he shoots me 10 times and melees me, i die

As the veil of lunacy descends, as past and future blend and shuffle, one image appears and flickers through the landscape, wraithlike. It is the Hatchling, the Newborn, walking the path of corruption, a lone figure shining in the toxic shadows. She comes dressed for war, and her wrath is terrible.

I think it is so awesome that alot of you people think that just because someone isnt talking about somehting it isnt happening. "they didnt mention the fixes so they are obviously not even working on them."

Yeah, because i know i announce everything i do. "Hey guys I'm gonna take a dump now" "Hey guys I am taking a left turn off of I-40 now" "Hey guys I'm making a post on a forum now"

Jerks.

I dont worship Bungie but I can realize they have one of the greatest, if not THE greatest, game son the market right now. They deserve some props for working hard. If you naysayers knew a damn thing about bungie you would know that they ARE working on fixes! Halo 2 had a fix for things like melee and some physics issues. Halo 3 (although I have no problem with it) is under a microscope by bungie as well, not just a bunch of jerks on a forum.

And i just tknow that when the fixes get released, instead of hearing "hey they WERE working on it, they arent so bad after all" it will be "the only reason this happened is because we hurt their feelings and we are awesome. Bungie sucks!"

once again, Jerks.

QFT. Seriously, people. Just because bungie doesn't say that they're working on any issues does not mean that they aren't. Bungie has a great track record and I see no reason as to why they would break that record with their most popular game to date. Calm down and give Bungie the benefit of the doubt. They sure as hell deserve it.

Yeah what about my 130 dollars. Well worth it, I'm glad to help you guys. The LANS and moments i've created with friends have more than paid for the near thousand dollars I've spent over the years on Halo merchandise.

Awesome community.

And for you people complaining how this isn't a real update. It really doesn't need to be. I think it's awesome they took some time to out have a sit down with the community and talk. This is why we all Love Halo, this is how it was made. This is why you're playing the game.

I hope boosting for rank comes under the heading of doing what you should be. I was in a match and these 4 guys were doing nothing but running around in circles. They all ended up coming in third place, giving each of them 1 exp point. Two of them were Brigadiers, one a Major, and one a commander. To think people would waste their time, and my time doing stupid crap like this. Come to think of it, they probably put a rubber band on their controller and left it on for a few hours...easy exp points. This crap dilutes the whole ranking thing on a whole new level. I mean, they must have skill as they reached the proper level to get the rank, but to then go and basically cheat the exp point....I feel it's ban hammer time, or at the very least reset their ranks and EXP down to nothing. Here is a link to my game, but if you check some of their matches you will see a whole page of 3rd place finishes, and they are all together for all of them. Pathetic.

Major, Brigagiers, Commanders...Who really cares? I can see how people like you get upset when you come across players who would rather gain EXP Points, and not gaming EXPERIENCE. Its their choice to do that. Skum of the earth are the first to come up with these methods of finding loop holes. Its just a race to the top. Just so everyone can be your friend because you have 5000 exp. Whats the point? Does that make them a better player than you? No it doesn't. Yea its retarded, and I can tell you that their is no way to come around this. Check out their Kill to Death ratio on the Social aspect of the game.

"On the seventh day, god did not rest, but rather he created 64 player multiplayer!"

“One time we ordered pizza for the whole office and I was the only one not on crunch. Mat Noguchi told me that I should get all veggie pizza or he would break my legs. So I ordered 18 extra large tofu, pineapple and broccolini pizzas with wholewheat crust and white garlic sauce instead of tomato. Mat was happy but Harold yelled something about bacon and Sparta and kicked me down the stairs. I was only in a cast for a month but the team said that my hilarious fall was the only thing that got them through crunch.”

to all of those who made halo what it is, thank you. Ive enjoyed every minute of the game, both the campaign and the online play. Halo brings us all together. Like when i was waitnig in line for the game at a gamestop, and was in line as soon as they allowed us to be; when this kid wanted ot cut to the front because his freinds were up there, and i and some others didn't allow him to. And that lead to a verbal arguement, which lead to staring each other down, which lead to more verbal argueing, but after waiting hours in line and halo 3 being so close we couldn't be upset, and now we are all friends.

Just kinda funny that halo brings people together, once again thank you for a great game!!!

This is music to my ears...i was about to get on the site and just whine about how lame the game has become, due to all the ppl who where cheating, but i guess that was a good plan to let the cheaters run wild so they could be identified early and banned.

Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphors have two parts : form and interpretation; of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom being the briocoleus, the mason.

Very lame "update".
Halo 3 is a good game, though, so I'll forgive you. Good job, Bungie!

What's funny about the whole melee issue is that in the end, to avoid frustration, you just have to get better at Halo! I mean, it comes down to you being more reliant on your gun and taking the effort to go for the headshot spray, so that by the time you get into melee range, you've dished out more hurt than the other guy. And heres the thing: If you DO go for those headshots, you'll probably gun your opponent down well before the melee is even needed. Go ahead, try it. Stand about 20 feet away from another player and dump an AR clip right into his face. Watch how fast he drops. Yeah, its frustrating to know that you should have had that crazy melee kill in the hallway, that you earned it. But the thing is, those were the old rules. In H3, you really DIDN'T earn it. The other guy was more accurate and skillfull in his weapon discharge, you meleed a person while his friend was also hurting you, or you blindly took more splash damage than you should have. That's really all there is to it.



I 100% agree with you gripp. LEAVE THE MELEE IN HALO 3 ALONE!

The U.E.S.C. Marathon emblem that appears on my profile was designed by me and picked by Bungie [Bungie All-Star competition] to be available for use by anyone on the Bungie forums.
