Work Harder! Millions on welfare depend on you!

yeah, city maps. With maps out in nature (isolation... *shudder) grenades bounce randomly off the ground. In cities, with pavement and flat walls, your grenades go where you throw them!

TSL spend more time getting better in halo 3 then quoting people who are right...your rank sucks, your exp to games played is almost laughable, and your K/D ratio is a joke...

Yeah!! What he said!!

The update was a joke. Not only did they not address all the posts asking for infection to be permanent in matchmaking or even just extended to give people a change to play who couldnt play on that 1 day, they didn't even acknomledge them. Weak!!!!!!!!!! So basically it looks like if you post something that matches what they are already doing they act like they are doing it in response to the fans but if you post about anything else they just ignore it.

Im just begging that one of the maps is Chill Out of Midship remake. I seriously would cry with joy if that be so. H3 is only missing the maps and beatdown system to be great. I can live and adapt to the beatdown system but we really need better maps. Oh and ranked btb wouldn't be a bad thought either =D.

Hey. Lets leave the mothers out of this, Dorthy Mantooth is a saint.

In all seriousness, you should learn to leave your poor grammar and irrational anger at the door before writing on this forum.

Oh, and thanks for the private message you sent me calling me a 'nub,' your opinion means the world to me and I appreciate the attention.

Hugs and Kisses TSL - and good luck with that whole 'smoking ass' fetish.

I posted this topic in H3 forum and Flood, but had no response, so I thought perhaps I had the wrong forum.

In the weekly update it is stated:
“Look at your router’s documentation to see if it supports Quality of Service (QoS) settings, and if so then try setting the maximum upload and download speeds to 85% of your actual upload/download speeds.”

How does this help? Would it just help guarantee you were seldom host?

Now he just needs to edit his life so that he's not such a loser, though that's probably beyond him.

I was I Magz I

Posted by: Runsonlava
alright, so i didn't play infection on Halloween. partly because i would rather of gone to a party then spending half my night playing halo and partly because i don't have xbl and i always play at my friends house, but when i went over to his house the next day, we noticed there was a large amount of games played the previous day, and everyone on xbl was talking about infection. so we came up with an idea you should consider. it wouldn't get you guys more players all the time, but more on the line of specific days that "gamers" would want to play. but here it is, you should assign days where certain game types are allowed. but not the normal game types. you should put some old halo 2 classics in like team swat or team snipers.

so an example would be:
Monday-Thursday--normal days nothing new
Friday--add team swat to the play list
Saturday-- nothing added
Sunday-- team snipers

that way people who like those certain game types will build anticipation for the game types they want to play. and instead of them doing the same thing everyday they would be able to change it up a bit.


I agree that having a rotating playlist would be something extremely fun, but I can't really see it pulling that many people into Halo 3 that aren't already playing for majority of the week. Also, If they had all of those problems with the living dead playlist(even though I can think of maybe one of the reasons it wasn't working) it seems that my gaze might be drawn back to playing just Team slayer while they try to insert new playlists into 24 hour periods. I would like to see an updated playlist when these new maps come out. Maybe a little bit of Team Snipes? I can argue however, that Team SWAT just doesn't appeal to me as much as it did in Halo 2. Without my insane ability to have an insane auto-aim helping me, the appeal of getting shot when i walk up the middle of Narrows, spawn killed four times, and trying to recover from said events is non-existent. Just let bungie deal with the problems that have been at the top of the forums for some time and finish the maps that everyone is waiting to see. Blah Blah Blah (here is where you go on ranting about what i did that was wrong and where my momma was last night Sargent Hartsock)

As for bugs I agree that some of these beat downs that I occur are outright madness! The Mauler + beatdown combo is a little too strong in my opinion. It takes 6 headshots to kill someone when using the magnum, but eight when i dual-wield???!?! THAT is a true problem. More than getting shotty snipes in team slayer too much. Beatdowns are close to last in the line of work. Now my headshots that do nothing paired with weakend dual-wielding magnums hurts my game.

The truth is:
1. Spartan M92(that's me!) is sick of getting jipped on headshots and weak dual wields.
2. I wouldn't mind some Team Snipers (not shotty snipes--secondary magnum like the good 'ol days) being tossed into the ranked playlist lineup.
3. Searchable Custom Games in Halo 3? That's a joke right? Go preorder CoD4 and stop whining.
4. TSL Sgt Hartsock take some chill pills and fix your game. It's right to criticize but not everything everbody says. If you want to be a Forum junkie go spam some other section. Here have fun. ( yeah yeah I'm a -blammin- -blam- -blam-^3)
5. Lastly, there is a void in my week without the presence of Mister Chief. May he return with a vengeance!(or some other way that makes me laugh)

Lukems think happy thoughts. It was just the 8th game of the season. The Pats didn't win the Colts lost it. Not dissing Brady he had one hell of a 4th qtr. I still wanted to puke. The left side of the D broke like me vs. 40's. Just think Boston will burn come January with Marvin and Keiaho healthy = 1 less sack 2 less fumbles and wide open Reggie Wayne/D. Clark. =Pats Torched


GO COLTS!

I'm fine, just don't piss me off. trust me, I'm workin' with some pretty badass players to step up my game. I'll be gettin' better, don't worry. and if anything, I don't spam and I'm not a junkie of this forum...yeesh..too many strange people

wow he did not like me trashing his game, even though 800 games played and 200 wins and some might not even be wins, is horrible, but back to the matter at hand. TSL you might be working with some better people (which I'm sure your not) but no one can teach you to aim better with a battle rifle. Sure there might be some locations they can show you so you can jump and hide into them, but for pure skill you need to learn that -blam!- yourself. Anyway, back to the "update", when your done being brain washed by Bungie, message me and we can throw down sometime...

..800 games played and 200 wins..


ya that's my on my service record lately..big deal..I was late to the "halo" band wagon anyway..yeesh, I freakin started playing "Halo" PC when "Halo 2" exploded onto the scene..and I didn't get enough time with "halo 2" to perfect any kind of skill so I'm workin' hard at learning skills & crap to change those awful numbers of mine in "halo 3"

besides..so I'm not as good as a chunk of you people...BIG DEAL..you want to make an ass out of yourself just because you're better than I am at the game? be my guest..I won't be the one who looks bad. The saving grace though is that I got my best moments in my file share

ignorance is bliss isn't it? the people I know could smoke your ass in the game too..so sit the hell down,..you don't know the people I know

umm.......lets recap, shall we........

uh hello? it wasn't DESIGN for "spawnable AI"..and OFCOARSE it's good for ramps..you just stink at it I suppose

how old are you? 14? are you stupid? OFCOARSE Bungie gave us an update, you nub..they let us know what's going on, and if your melee is broken..you must suck at melee attacks..not THEIR fault..

wow..you're "X Tremely Talent"-ed at being extremely ignorant aren't you? a big chunk of the maps are fine..MLG people play on em and win frickin hundreds of thousands of dollars playing this series & the maps..unless you can devise a better map then make it in HALO-C.E. (PC) & actually DO better than Bungie OR the MLG folks..........SHUT THE HELL UP
breakin news...this just in

you fail at life and the game..I know people who could make you look like a nub!

your FACE is a joke, YOUR MOM is a joke, and you BOTH suck at LIFE! so my record's got more peaks and valleys than a manic depressive schizo-frenic for you? eh well..I'm workin' on ways of SMOKIN jackasses like you.., I got buddies who could SMOKE YOUR ASS and they're showing me what they know. so watch out, ho-mo, I WILL be MLG grade..and you're not going to know what hit you

so SIT THE HELL DOWN YOU FRUIT OF A FAILED ABORTION! it'll be a cold day in hell before those people are RIGHT and your dumb ass knows it!

This is what makes you look bad TSL. No-one would care how much you suck at H3 if you weren't such a jerk. You don't need anyone else to make you look like a "nub", you do it all by yourself.

UPDATE for TSL: The BxR bug in Halo 2 has not been fixed and is still going strong in the halo 2 community. As far as super jumping, it also is still present in Halo 2. So dont come on here saying that Bungie fixed those problems. They haven't. They wont. They never will.






-now that's an update
