Wtf, why no more flying bodies =[ That was one of my favorite features of Halo 3. Taking this out takes out half the damn fun of the online portion of the game!

good job Bungie but i wish you good help out in matchmaking a skill rating is prety stupied in cod4 iam almost done with the ranking up system

--G

Man, me too. I also shot and beat a guy down with a mauler at the same time he beat me down with the sword. I actually saw a flying body too. Kind of disappointed with the update but maybe I'll just have to get used to it. I used to be kick ass at melee contests now I gotta build up that skill again. I also agree with a "immune to assasinations" option in customs and ALSO erase all funciton in forge and xbox live public. But oh well, sorry for the rant. Thanks for the work bungie, we still appreciate everything.

Ive saw my body fly a couple of times when i was playing earlier today. Maybe they didnt totally fix it...

Men, we've led these dumb bugs out to the middle of nowhere to keep from getting their filthy claws on earth, but, we stumbled on to something that's so hot for them, that they're scrambling over each other to get it. Well, I don't care if it's God's own anti-son-of-a-b*tch machine, or a giant hola-hoop, we ain't gonna let them have it. What we will let them have, is a belly full of lead, and a pool of their own blood to drown in!

Dying while performing a melee or weapon lunge will no longer accelerate the dead player

I'm sorry, but the word choice for 'accelerate' is hilarious. I almost choked on my skittles. Anywho, good update.

EDIT: btw, this new melee shanary (sp) sounds pretty solid.

Somehow it seems to make melees come faster. Now I dont even have time to respond when someone melees me and I can't melee back.

Bumsen Sie nicht mit mir, wenn ich ein Scharfschütze-Gewehr und ein Schlacht-Gewehr. habe. Sie sterben.

I was halfway energy shield and got meleed by my friend and I died. I liked the old Halo 3 Melee system. It wasn't jipped. But I liked how I got my shoulders finally. I'm just not completely satisfied like many of my friends with the new melee system. Please go back to the old melee system.

-A witty signature that can be placed on the bottom of all your forum posts.

I saw quite a few simultaneous melee deaths today, and you know what...I like it.

So when is the Heroic Map Pack becoming free? Oh and nice update.

  • 02.20.2008 5:06 PM PDT

In my opinion, this update was unnecessary, but it just shows how much Bungie loves us.

  • 02.20.2008 5:10 PM PDT

the film thing where you watch with your friend and it stops at the starting screen, it still happens to me and my friend.

i actually liked the old melee system better. now everytime i try to kill someone i end up killing my opponent and myself, instead of just my opponent. though i'm able to kill maulers easier now

yay for commando shoulders

  • 02.20.2008 5:13 PM PDT

New Marathon? Thanks Bungie!

melee is strange now will take a while to get used to (no that lm complaining or anything l actually think its better) hopefully everybody is happy now right Bungie?

after a few games with the update under my belt, I am very happy with it. Melee feels great. I cant really explain it, but along with the simultaneus deaths it behaves more...rationally. The same goes for the sword (though the clashes can be quite inconsistant) and maybe the sniper rifle (but I could just be imagining it.)

Now if we could just get some new playlists to exhibit the improved gameplay...

I have played but i haven't really noticed any difference except for the bodies not flying half ways across the world. Im not sure if the update made it seem more realistic as th bodies fall but i like it.

Please undo the melee update. I would rather lose a melee battle randomly, then have both people died. Both people dying is the most frustrating thing on the planet.

Crab up, Crab up.

I'm kind of bummed you took away the flying bodies. It always made me feel a little more manly when I gave a guy the Master Chief elbow and sent a guy to the other side of the map.

how about you fix everything about this game

beatdown system is still bad

overshield is crap my whole overshield goes down after one melee but when i stick someone with overshield with a sticky grenade nothing happens what the hell is that

foundry sucks

spawns are crap also


everything about this game is crap

you can win twenty games and still not rank up but when you lose 2 games you rank down wtf!!!!


weapons on map are stupid get rid of shotty on snowbound get rid of rockets on epitaph

how about you get rid of those two maps all together

halo 3 is garbage
