Could you elaborate as to what "Hammerzeit" is? Just a Slayer game with Gravity Hammers?

  • 11.13.2007 11:02 AM PDT

Yes, just hammers.

I really wish you guys hadn't gotten rid of Social Doubles. Why not just set the max party size to two? That'd show the EXP whores.

Love the multi-team, and am happy to see RR!

  • 11.13.2007 11:30 AM PDT

==============================================
Halo 3 Legendary (Co-op and Solo) complete, I guess its time to get Forging.

That is pretty tight.
Definately looking forward to RR.

When are the fan made maps coming into the list?

Me Likeeeeee, with no social doubles, it a little harder to boost xp with only 1 xbox



A while back it was said that after Big Team was Social for a while it would be moved to Ranked. Any news on when that might be happening?

Awww, social doubles should have just been changed to limit the party to being 2 people. I don't want to be forced into ranked when it is just me and my buddy wanting to play some 2v2.

  • 11.13.2007 11:54 AM PDT

Can't wait to play. Very happy about the changes, especially addition of Rocket Race. Thanks guys.
Now I only have to wait for my 360 to get back. t minus 2-6 weeks and counting.

Yeah - although I like the changes made to the Matchmaking Playlist, I really don't see the point in completely removing Social Doubles. I quite enjoyed that gametype...

I wonder if there is a Teabaging Medal?


If there were, it would be called "TESTOCULAR!"

So what about BTB?

  • 11.13.2007 12:15 PM PDT

they shouldn't have gotten rid of social doubles, and adding swords to lone wolves is probably the worst update. using swords takes no skill and will just help n00bs rank up.. that's why in rumble pit anyone can win in a swords match, but when you get to a slayer gametype there's always one person who dominates because he's the high lvl

  • 11.13.2007 12:21 PM PDT

Thank you Bungie for listening to the community. ;)

  • 11.13.2007 12:23 PM PDT

Oh....boy.....I'm...just so excited I can't contain myself....oh wait, no I can. So Big Team Battles still just have Three maps.....and we still have no maps that have tanks or prowlers or Hornets, or flame grenades, etc etc. Oh yea, great update, I'm really excited.

Oh and let me guess, no infection in matchmaking yet. So....we have medals for ranked and social infection matches, but we can't earn them......hmmmmm.

Or maybe I'm just bitter because I know that there could be such better maps, but they will never listen to the ideas and actually make the good maps.
