Way to BLAM-over the east coast guys... a 3am release (EST)?? So the rest of the world gets effectively 2 nights to play the Infection list, while the Eastern US gets one night. You realize that some people have jobs right? And that the vast majority of online population is east of the mississsippi? You look at that fancy map in matchmaking once in a while right?

I was really looking forward to getting some of the medals for my chest, but I feel kinda cheated on the time frame. I know alot of people on the east coast who feel the same.

There was some really lame playlists on halo 2 for a while that was ranked so i wouldnt be suprised if by the bungie staff review our crys for them to keep this playlist for them to make it happen so we dont know what bungie will hold in the future but I think they should at least start a poll on this playlist
whether we should keep it or not lets do this after my post just put yes our no and why they should keep the playlist or should not either way at least will know our opinion on the matter..


put
1 zom 2 zom 3 zom

yes maybe no

please explain the reason why u chose this ,,,,<<<<discuss

Subject: maps anyone

quick question, what maps are going to be used.

more then likely Last Resort and High Ground, but there will more then likely be more?

come on Bungie, spill it.

I love this playlist!!!! I wasted like an hour trying to get 2 people in but i finally figured only 1 can join on an xbox! It's a bit annoying that the zombies have sheilds and are invisible, it's almost impossible to win as the humans, it should of been one or the other. I was kind of expecting there to be like halloween suits of armor and pumpkins for grenades or orange or black for smoke trails for the sniper rifle, rocket launcher, missile pod, grenades, and brute shot. But still I love that infection is in matchmaking and ranked! I look forward to seeing what else you come out with. Please come out with a ranked snipers game, without the shottie. Also I don't think very many people knew about this seasonal change, there are only like 10 thousand people playing it.

I live in the Eastern Time Zone, i stayed up til 3 to play it, i overslept my first class due to a bad alarm clock... i'm still happy its in matchmaking even if i dont get a full time to play...
the only "problem" i have is although it is really intense and the map variants are really really sweet its not the infection i remember (i'm trying to say this without making it sound like i'm whining) zombies used to be massing flesh heaps that blindly attacked, knowing most of them would be mowed down, with only a pistol to defend themselves

It did take a while to put a match together, but these are big 8-16 player games, so that's to be expected - and totally worth the wait; it's a great sight seeing a little cadre of zombies leaping up over the beach wall on Zomzibar, to be met by a blast of red laser death!

My Stats kinda suck
Mjolnir Battle Tactics Group over 1200 members

I wish there was more variety like the no shield super speed zombies with a cloaked alpha zombie. Also blakholephysic's "Mans Last Stand" is a pretty cool map/gametype combo if anyone wants to check it out. It's more for 6-8 players though if you make 2 or 3 starting zombies you could probably up it to 12

I'm having a lot of fun with this gametype, Bungie definitely needs to keep this one around

Right, this is not working in parties. Well, it is--with the following caveats: One's wait time is directly proportional to one's party size; and one's chance of finding a game is inversely proportional to party size.

Something tells me this has to do with the playlist size being 13 players, and a large number of people entering with parties of 4 (or parties of 3, or 2, for that matter, since 13 happens to be a prime number). The system tries to match up parties of similar size, which as one can see, will be wont to create problems.


I was only able to get into one game in about 1 hr of searching last night. Party of 3. It blew.

Yea.. I tried getting in for a good hour or two as well. It was me and a friend. And it only let us in one time when we grabbed two more people from another game. Pretty lame. It was a fun gametype, but it would have been fun to play more than once

  • 10.31.2007 9:31 AM PDT

Wow this Game type is AMAZING!!! is there anyway we can keep it?? if can, do u think u can change it up a little. the creeping Rockets Is annoying lol

  • 10.31.2007 9:33 AM PDT

O i can't wait till I can get home to try out this playlist! zombies are my fav! We play it at our lan parties all the freaking time! If anyone wants to try out a good zombie game type go to my file share, its great with 6-16 people!

this SUCKS i got the damned 3 red lights of hell on my xbox last sunday ITS NOT FAIR I HATE YOU XBOX WHY! and now this cool halo 3 halloween thing had to rub it in more.....

  • 10.31.2007 9:38 AM PDT

The 360 stole my name.

Trouble with parties? yeah, i know, what's going on? i can get into games with just myself, but if i try with even just one other friend, nothing is found, and we've waited upwards of 30 minutes...something to look into perhaps?

I really like the maps and the fact that it is a matchmaking infection playlist. But I really don't like any of the gametypes... Guess I am just used to playing with my friends on our custom ones. Also I really suck with the Laser... and the zombies can take like 3 hits from a shotgun to kill. Oh well. Maybe next time guys. Gonna save all the maps though.
