Boooooo for team hardcore. I think roughly four times the amount of us want a team snipes playlist.

Hey Bungie folks,
I've put this message to the masses many times, and through perhaps every venue, but have yet to receive a response (accept once from Luke, but I don't think he was clear on what I was asking). I have a problem with an achievement. I have the graduate pin, but not the Graduate achievement. This is frustrating like listening to people complain about the new melee (I can’t come up with a better way than what you have right now, so congrats… on being better at game development than some random guy, I guess). Anyway, if this sort of thing is getting addressed, then I can be patient, but I have heard no indication that this is the case. So I’m going to be the squeaky wheel, in hopes that you eventually silence me (hopefully not through assassination).

On the other hand, if I have NOT done what is needed to obtain said achievement, then someone feel free to let me know, so I can quit whining for that reason instead. Is it possible to get the Spartan Officer Achievement without getting the Graduate Achievement? If so, I may have just missed something… something that I will do the instant I know what it is. Once again, thanks for so many great games, especially these 3. Y’all rock.

I miss the mark of shame on my shoulder. :(

Yay hardcore. I didn't like that playlist for the longest time, and then I got into it heavily in H2. And then I hated it because it was all double shotting.button combo garbage. I am excited for it in H3 without that junk.

And news?????? I wanna know! :)

team swat





i got an idea guys, whenever u guys post something jsut say "team swat" before u say something like i did, i said team swat and pressed return like 5 times, so that would mean that you would want team swat back, and if every one would do that, lukemz would definitely notice and bungie will definitely do something about it, so please everyone, when u say something, say team swat before it

Team Swat




That sure was cool of you guys to set up the games with the 49ers.
I can't point out the five, so I won't even try.
Excellent news on new maps and updating the playlists.
Keep up the good work fellas.

Team Swat

Greatest weekly update I've seen since Halo 3 came out(followed by when they finally announced that we can't get Recon ourselves). I'd post this in all caps but I'd get flamed for sure, so:
Yay! Blood Gultch type map! AND apparently the team liked it better than any of the others. At first I thought the bank would be a small map just because of it's name, but if it has warthogs, rockets, lasers, bases....this is going to be great!
On a side note, wonder who was in the Chief costume in the pic.

The post below is not of a human, but a remnant of a human. Any intelligence they had has fled, leaving just a shadow of what they could of been. Hence, they are an imbecile.

My team n I just won 5 -blam!- ing games in a ROW and didn't lvl up then we lost 1 game and dropped 2 lvls!!!! WTF BUNGIE!!! LEARN TO MAKE A GAME!!!!

The news is obviously the info on the the new maps, and a release date. Of course this is just a guess, but it is a likely answer.

It si good to be part of the legendary and the Marathon Man Percentage.

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

If I am subscribing to a site and they ask for my name, I always use Art Vandalet. I spell it a little differently but it's ultimately the same name.
I got it off off Seinfeld, how 'bout you Bungie.

Jodrel bank is gonna be a mostly flat field with trees, rocks and small buildings for cover. warthog mayhem ensues
Jodrell Bank
Mark II Telescope


Jodrell Bank will be a huge dish shape like one of the radio telescopes. Man cannons will likely send you from one end to the other by throwing you through the focal point of the dish.


ascension???? i thought he said warthogs would be present
