One of the best updates in a long, long time. I really appreciate you guys for being so honest about so many things. That's all I ever needed to hear. And Luke, thank you for putting a stop to more usless "first" posts. Maybe that ought to become a habit?



I love how everyone is sucking up to bungie in hopes of getting recon armor.

Well, that about covers it.

Good update, Bungie! One thing I'm still curious about is how saved films will work with those don't have the maps, and those who do. Only time will tell I suppose.

...fine, maybe we can't get Weapon-lowering in online.
But can you PLEASE at least make it easier? You know, without having to crouch and jump. maybe LB+RB+Y. That would be nice.

...Plus, if the Weapon lower is abused in online, you could just update the engine, so it wont work on Matchmaking.
Or you can take it out, simple.

what happened to Marty's Podcast. :,(

First.


Ah, Luke.
That was one of the best things I've ever seen you do.

And this was the best Weekly Update in many weeks.
They should be like this all the time.

a few things

1. no, so far you have not proven that new maps are as good as the classics, not even freakign close.
2. team hardcore should just be MLG with a few tweaks, thanks, that'd please a lot a lot of people.
3. i'd love to have a one on one with that map creator guy, god i'd love to talk to him.



overall, i'm crossing my fingers that bungie redeems halo 3 from being the worst of the three.

wow, that was rude. I own CoD4, and yes, its wildly fun to play, but don't rub it in Bungie's face, thats just unnecessary. Halo 3 and CoD4 are completely different, and way differently designed.

One thing that was wildly dynamic and wholly addicting was Team Snipers. I don't know how else to intelligently ask for Team Snipers than to do it this way: please add Team Snipers to your playlists soon? I miss it a LOT.

Life isn't like Halo, you don't go "Boop. Boop. Beep!" and come back alive.

"It’s safe to say that we have plenty of incredible new maps lined up and maybe one or two revisited classics."

One or two classics? That's it? Now I'm worried.

  • 11.30.2007 6:16 PM PDT

Were it so easy.

1: CoD4 fans.......go play and leave us alone. 2: As I understand it the rank is not really having a problem ,aside from a few isolated incedents, if you are one you have my condolances, but your skill is determined by how much impact you had on the game win or lose so unless you win and have 20 kills and single digit deaths you may just be what ever skill you are untill you improve, im not talking to anyone directly but there have been alot of complaints about it. Remember, your rank (corporal, Sgt, whatever) is determined by exp and skill. Skill is determined by well.... your Skill, but just being on the winning team is not enough. Not saying im great, actually I consider myself average with flashes of brilliance so understand im not trying to flame any one (Exc.Cod4 Fanboys) just trying to help clarify things 3: good update Thanx guys.

Oh really? I didn't think he was implying that at all - you sir, are mistaken.
But in all seriousness, stfu! No one cares about Recon anymore. Quit trolling, narb.

Oh, by the way: Great update Frankie, and nice joke at the start Luke.
