I guess I'll join the voices and ask what is the issue with Flares and Radar Jammers?
And have they been replaced with other equipment?

Awesome news, you guys have got me SO pumped for the new DLC. And we JUST got three new maps too! It's like a dream come true.

Thanks for all the news about the changes in the maps, especially with team hardcore.

Can't wait for an old classic to be remade! Oh man, what on earth could it be??? Bloodgulch or maybe even Sidewinder brought back in all it's 360 glory...*drools*

Keep up the good work you guys!

i think halo 3 is great . but bungie you suck with making updates. u ruined snowbound. and allthe other maps.


Yup!!!! 100% Agreed!!! Just as I expected, every week another small but on going snowball of disapointment... Sadly I feel the absence of Halo3 players online growing with this one... Lets hope one day this snowball melts.

I like to knit sweaters.....and by knit I mean PUNCH....and by sweaters I mean babies.

Macgyver can build an airplane out of gum and paper clips, but Evil One can kill him and take it.

Thanks for your hard work Bungie!
But could you please look at the respawn process? It doesn't work well all the time. Some times I see three enemies spawn right in front of me when I'm attacking a lone player. CHEAP ! And when you clear out an area they will spawn behind you in an area you just cleared out ! Very annoying!
Anywho! Thanks

  • 12.21.2007 6:32 PM PDT

Please Bungie, redeem yourself w/ Reach.
Halo 2 and 3 both stink out loud.
In the immortal words of Mr Horse: Halo 2? No sir, didn't like it.

*Enough* about DLC... more about fixes please.

We're putting makeup on a pig here. Ok, that's an exaggeration.

It makes me sick that all the complainers who were unskilled and couldn't combat people camping with maulers have won their little tantrum. and its a sad sad day that bungie listened to them. I had no problems with Maulers or combating the people who used them. Thought they were decent additions to the maps. I liked to know they were there to turn too if I see someone owning with a shotty.

Guardian is now unbalanced with Shotty owning all.

I swear to DRUNK, I'm not GOD!

YAY!!!! Finally! We have tanks in Big Team Battle! Thank you Bungie! Merry Christmas!!! ^^

PORTAL in Reach!

Friend request me, I'm a friendly guy: Gamertag

Alright, great update, but im kinda confused. The maulers were fine, i could easily take out the users. but not all of the time, which is what made them a weapon. and whats with all the eqipment swaps? No love fore flares or radar jammers? And i dont understand the no holiday playlist problem.

I'll say. But the worst problem is the map cycling for. Today, me and my brother played Team Doubles to raise in rank. he was 26 and me 28. At the end (We played about 6 hours, 2 hours were Team Doubles the rest Social Slayer) of the day, he was 27 and me 31. The reason, me and my brother suck balls on Epitaph, when i mean suck I mean we might as well quit because we we know we're going to loss. It's not a skill problem but just the fact that Epitaph (don't get me started about Snowbound) is such a poorly balanced map. The whole day we started on the side with only the gravity hammer to get. The other team gets the Rocket Launcher and the Shotgun. And notice how I said "The whole day" I mean half our games were on Epitaph. At first I loved Bungie but now I just plain out hate them for making that sucky map called Epitaph (don't even think about getting me started about Snowbound). Please Bungie, either cycle the maps more often or make a lot more than three maps for download next time. OR you could cycle Epitaph a lot less and you know what would be great. More gametype variety like Team Snipers.

there's bullet holes where my compassion used to be...
and there is violence in my heart.

Bring back the Maulers!! Mauler '08!! :)
