I almost forgot, that hiding spot underneath the ramp on the Pit really pisses me off.

That spot is pointless. Infection is based on kills, and as long as no one is stupid and tries to kill them, then they wont get any kills and therefor will lose that match.

I think they should keep he playlist, and maybe add a social list too, wouldn't harm it but not a must. it's a great way to relieve self from the stresses of keeping rank in Team Slayer and such, it's really fun, i enjoy it more than lone wolves; it's just about the same with an extra, undead twist.

Wow, it'd be super if they could fix the hopper.... my roomate and I have been waiting for eons for a game to be found, yet the number just registers zero found.

And we both reallllyy have better things to do then waste our time staring at a "looking for ANY game" screen. Lame.

These game types are good but i wouldn't expect them to just two weapons not trying to flame, I did like the game types but all in all could of done better.
First thing more then just two weapons on the enitre map like an AR and a Pistol and have the shotgun a weapon you pick up once no respawn.
2nd give the zombies more speed and more health but no sheilds, and the Humans and holf foots have less health but better sheilds and intergrate more power ups like "stimpack 25% speed gain and 15% more damage increase" or "rampage 50% health loss 60% speed gain and 30% damage increase".
3rd keep every one visable it is kinda one sided when all the zombies have Grav Hams and you can't see them at all (oh btw nice job on the clock)
4th have senairos built into the level ex Valhalla the surivers spawn a the crashed pelican with little ammo and weapons and you give them a choice go inland or go to the beach or try and hold the ship and put objectives into the match not only do they have to survie but they have to hold downed peilcan for 3 min till evac, or "escort the doctor" like a vip like game type where "the doctor found the cure and he has to "get to the chopper!!!!"
i know that these idea require editing and reprogramming of gametypes entirely but just think of the possablitys, you could make game types that would be a multi player campain for Example Valhalla (again i know) survivers at the pelican and if they go to the inland base they find the cure but then the have to wait longer but find more ammo and weapons, or go to the beach where wait less time and have less ammo and weapons
well that is all and BTW i did this a 1am so mesir is very very tired and if i drift on or any of that i will come back and try to fix it.. till then PEACE

oh and i strongly suggest introdousing this in to matchmakeing just trying to get my word in the alphabet soup.. and some "hopefuly" construtive crtisim

It was nice to have zombie matchmaking but as soon as I had a party together it wouldn't find a game. So we just started our own custom games. I would have liked for this Halloween idea to work better but oh well.... H3 still rocks and I've been having a ton of fun!

Covenant Cival War

Oh yeah BTW...... WHERES'S MY GIGGITY COOKIE!!!

Yeah the same happened to me 2. Whenever I party up with 3 or more people it wouldn't work.

  • 10.31.2007 9:45 PM PDT

can you even go up ranks in this playlist when in a party? I've been in a party and we've been stuck on rank 5 and haven't leveled up yet even though we've done good and have been in 1st place alot of the time.

what? How is it pointless? When everyone's a zombie but the one dick head in that hole and he justs keeps on blasting all the people who keep running up there trying to kill him, even though all they are doing is giving him kills.

  • 10.31.2007 10:28 PM PDT

Does anybody have all of the medals yet? What are all the special medals you can get only in Infection? Here are the ones I know of:
5 kills as human - Zombie Killing Spree
10 kills - Hell's Janitor
15 kills - ? Or is it 5 kills as Zombie? Something latin...

So Good To See You...

Worst Infection ever. Since when are Zomies invisible and have hammers? They should have no sheilds and humans shotguns and pistols with no radar.

Be determined and advance. - Hagakure

Could not get a group into the playlist.

Dont know if other people had this problem but none of my friends and I could join the playlist as a group (3 people). It would just hang there. We all could join individually, no problem. Not sure what it was. Real bummer because it is a fun playlist.

i must say it was a blast! just wish its was lasting longer than 27 hours.

  • 10.31.2007 10:55 PM PDT

uhhh, i hate to rain on bungie's parade, but the gametypes suck ass. The maps are decent, most of them.... but the weapon spawns and active camo for zombies and the implementation of shields are stupid. Sorry, Bungie. Not impressed.

I love this playlist, especially in comparison to some of the items available now in Big Team. Such as VIP or Territories (on some maps at least), no hard feelings bungie but people veto those two whenever they pop up. It's the same for some in other game types, like oddball in lonewolf or ninjanaught in Rumble Pit. Some things just feel out of place for the game type. But infections right at home in a Big Team playlist (i do realize that big team involves actual "teams") and my vote is cast that it be kept, where its placed is up to you, whether you derive some new form of Big Rumble Pit or what not. But I'd like to see this put into action permanently.

I do agree that the playlist needs tweeking (ie chainreaction01's post), but these are balance issues that are easily resolved im sure. Epitaph we could do without i think, I would like to see something more along the lines of the Highground map with swords vs Shoty/SL. Now that was fun.

Long live Bungie!

So 3, 4 hours left? And still no update on the party problem.... lame.

Couldn't do Halloween clubbing because my buddies & I have early classes, so I mentioned the Halo 3 Halloween thing and they come over. Boy did I look like a fool as we sat there staring at the "zero matches found" screen.

Thanks a lot Bungie! Life goes on, but still...so -blam!- lame!

  • 10.31.2007 11:40 PM PDT

Well, almost had MMM... BRAINS!... 8 kills. Same with Hell's Janitor. Anybody have either yet?

  • 10.31.2007 11:55 PM PDT

this needs to be a permanent playlist! (not the creeping stuff though).

And I think it wouldn't let parties find a game IF the party members were a different rank (I'm at 6, but my friend was at 1, and nothing would happen).
