There is no secret ingredient

YAAY THANKS BUNGIE!!!!

IVE LOVED YOU GUYS SINCE 2001!!!!

I really don't know what you people are thanking Bungie about. It's taken them something like 4 months (Considering thats when people started complaining) to do the simplest fix's.

As far as we know Headshots will still count a body shots half the time. Melee's won't be detected at all sometimes even in games with good connections.

I can't believe anyone actually believes Bungie when they say fix's like the stupid Melee system take months to fix. I mean come on, how dumb to you have to be?

After reading and re-reading your post. Carefully examining every point you made, I have come to the conclusion that you left out evidence to substantiate your claim. Congratulations, you are an idiot.

That was possibly the worst update ever. It didn't tell us anything that we didn't hear last week, and the only new news was the update is coming on the 20th, with was stated on the front page, and not even mentioned in the article. I am thoroughly disappointed, but am still looking forward to the update :P

Oh why don't you -blam- some more, you have to give things time, you can't just try to fix every stupid little thing that someone complains about who's to say they aren't full of -blam-. Besides, Bungie is a company that does everything they can to put out a quality product, to do so, there needs to be a lot of time allowed for testing to make sure everything is just right. But I'd say that I'm still waisting my time trying to get this through you thick skull, you're gonna obsessively look for anything you can to -blam about. To all the people like this guy out there, find something better to do with your life than complain, try getting laid sometime. It's a lot of fun, I promise.

yaya the fist fights wont be fought with one guy with his hands behind his back while being pummeled.
Also, if any one know-will the security shoulder glitch be fixed in the update or is there actually a legit way to get them?

Anyways nice fix bungie and hope to see you guys out there sometime,

Great. Now how's about deleting Snowbound, Epitaph and Isolation, and giving us good maps?


Hey man, Epitaph is my absolute favorite map, followed closely by Snowbound. I agree that Isolation should be permanently deleted from the game, and everybody's memory. I really hope Mele isn't too messed up with any fixes either.


No surprise that these are your favorite maps after looking at your most used weapons (cough..shotgun, beatdown). And what the hell...10 social exterminations? Somethings fishy.

Sounds cool, although I have never really minded the old way.

Anyone wanna bet that people will still complain and beg for the old way back? Lol

Trust me, knowing this community, that is exactly what will happen. Either that or some crap like BR spread will become the new major issue.

The ridiculous intentionally randomized spread of the BR is a legitimate issue.

Btw, when exactly is the update coming out? This update sounds kind of promising, hopefully it doesn't somehow make things worse.

Dear Bungie,

Please replace the glitch that hurled bodies with inexplicably high velocities into the abyss. It has never negatively affected a game of Halo 3.

Thanks.

Untrue. A friend of mine showed me a clip of my corpse, which had been flung by this melee glitch, hitting him as he jumped over a gap and stopping his momentum. It ended with him falling off the map, and even worse was we lost by 1 point on the end, 25-24. It was funny as can be, but also detrimental to the gameplay.
