Funny that the zoomjap comic thing would appear in the update, when Frankie posted the video on Fyreball last week.

Maroon 5 is awesome. Deal with it.

uh why is there a picture of admiral ackbars head in the comic?

  • 03.07.2008 10:02 PM PDT

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the clichéd lines.

Haha a Mister Chief webcomic would be funny.

Hmmm, nice update...

I'm just sad that tiled textures actually made it into halo .. =( Shoulda given them to me, and I woulda sorted through them ;p

At the same time, I realise that halo 3 would have thousands of textures, much more than me making 20 or so textures untiled/seamless ;p

Nothing will turn a group of grown men into a mass of screaming girls quicker than the launch of Halo 3

Great update....although the tech jargin was a lil too much for me :-P

If you are reading this you are probably bored out of your mind.

Just like Grifball is and SWAT will be, these DoubleXP Weekend playlists are also another opportunity to receive the Reconnaissance Raiment.

What's with you guys giving recon away all of a sudden? I mean first its the valintines day massacre, then you would randomly pick a username from fyreball to get it, and now griffball and team swat. Are you trying to get people to play halo 3 more? Aside from that the update was good... can't wait for team swat though :D and grifball is fun!!! I'm getting good at it!!! 5 straight wins in a row!!!

9000 hours means that you spent 1.03 years making that picture, without taking breaks for food or water or anything. Somehow I doubt that it took you that long.
Plus, your picture just isn't good.

Team Swat > Grifball + $10,000

*Forgot to mention, still want MLG playlists.

Thanks for sharing the technical stuff. Being a CS major, I find those things very interesting. I never knew about that spawn-point points thing before. I'll have to mess around with that with my friends... like we did when you divulged some information about exact weapon damage. We went through and figured out multipliers for headshots (and apparently shield multipliers for plasma weapons). Turned out to be x1.6 approximately for headshots with projectile weapons (carbine included) and a whopping x10 damage with plasma weapons if the target has a shield. Were gonna have to mess with this spawn points system now. =]

And was a "mister arbiter" in those pictures? Nice.


Oh nice, I am also CS major.

I'm still not sold on that highlight of a massive spawnkill. Why put that up on Bungie Favorites? I think it's only going to encourage spawnkilling in matchmaking nad the halo world in general, so people can try to get on the bungie favorites. Poor form. And if MLG is all about the spawnkill as a legit strategy, I don't know how i feel about that. I know i hate being spawnkilled, so i don't try to do it to anyone else, unless it's grifball where that is a legit strategy (if you have host)

  • 03.08.2008 8:44 AM PDT

what spots at the pit, construct, and epitah. not the out of map spots i hope.

  • 03.08.2008 8:52 AM PDT

You'd probably shoot back if i wasn't T-bagging your dead body.

lol i didnt see the not at the top untill the second time a read it and wondered what was wrong.

yay cant wait for the Legendary map pack.

tho i'm already curious as to what will be in the Mythic pack.

loved the GB weekend, had a great time even as a GB vet, it never gets old to me, unless i'm getting constantly team killed >.<

horray for "not forcing" people to DL the heroic maps to play in events!!!

  • 03.08.2008 11:26 AM PDT

I liked the bumper jumper article last week. And grifball > SWAT + $10,000 I think. Is EOD supposed to look like Helghast helmets? (Don't answer, they are watching.) The Overkill is an insanely hard achievment. How about the eight double kills in one game achievment? That would be way easier. Oh well, I'll keep trying. I like last weeks update more.
