Subject: MLG has taken over bungie favorites!

I want you to die a slow painful death.

(I searched and i didn't find another topic like this so forgive me if this is spam)

I like the MLG as the next guy, but I noticed something i found troubling the in past while. Every thing under screenshots, game and map variants are all community generated.

How ever ESPN's MLG's Top Ten has dominated the saved films portion. Yeah, they're good, so what. When a supernaturally good player gets a killocilypse or a perfection it's noting special. Because I'm sure they do it all the time and get paid doing it too. When a noob gets lucky and gets an over kill with anything other than the rocket launcher then you have something that's spectacular.

Also i don't want to see just freakish acts of people dominating other players. I want to see noobs killing them selves, I want to see extremely lucky stickies and snipes, funny and completely awesome but unintentional kills.

As a member of Bnet and regular Halo 3 player, i want to see more community generated films.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who feels that way.

Can not be touched.

I doubt the favorites will be dominated by MLG for very long. Bungie is probably trying to raise interest in MLG before the new playlist goes live.

Quit Ban - FIne by me. I'll enjoy the breaks.

I totally agree with the OP.

Plus, Sundance is a tool.

Haha, you think Sundance is a tool? The Co-creator of MLG? Hahaha.

They didn't take over, Bungie picked them.

It's like a retard riding a bicycle while eating hot wings.
Sometimes you have to take the bike seat off to really enjoy it.

Just because you don't like MLG doesn't mean you have to play it, or watch the films, besides you can look up films on B.net.

Sorry, but I see noobs kill themselves all the time, and it's not funny, it's stupid.

I get kick ass kills all the time. Who the hell am I? Do I deserve to be in the favourites? No. I'd rather see someone who is known get into Bungie favourites.

And lul @ Sundance comment, get outta here.

I AGREE WITH YOU i was just thinking the same thing a while back...i kinda hate mlg b/c they totally take the FUN out of the game...it isn't always about dominating its about having fun and winning as a team. Hey if your good your good but I HATE it when bungie makes you the center of attention...omg gky

its not like they (MLG pros) get that stuff all day thats why its a clip it rarely happens in fact.... so your telling me that all pros can get triples and overkills without missing on other pros who are just as good isn't that great... oo but when a noob and gets a overkill now thats amazing...
most of the clips that they get i get in Ts all most everyday what they do isn't hard

i really don't get why you play halo if you think this.... "/

plus those clips were on ESPN!!!!

Sent the map 11/27. Hope it all goes well.

I with there would be more videos from the community too. MLG is nice to see every once in a while, but not all the time. :(

Well its really sad they are either really proud and won't take them down or they are trying to cut down on the community trying to get their films up there. Either way the same films need to get off there.

it isn't always about dominating its about having fun and winning as a team.


So winning as a team isn't the same thing as dominating the other one?

That's like saying people who are innately good at something won't get attention. How many times have you been in a game with a general and had at least one person respond with "Wow a general?". In a perfect world that general worked for what he/she got and is in turn getting the recognition for it. No different than those who play MLG.

like I care if they were on ESPN,

the fact is the MLG is pushing cummunity films out of the way.

Besides i think that MLG gamers are corpate whores like any other proathlete, and i rather see joe average gamer's stuff than Mr.dominating sellout's millionth overkill.

Remember, it's 'Bungie Favorites', not 'randomcommunitymember Favorites'.
Besides, they've only been up there for like two weeks. You guys make it sound like forever.

It's been up longer than that,

i can't recall when it started to take over, but it's much longer than 2 weeks.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

Yeah. Same with the maps on BF, the vids are rather boring after a while, and the maps need to be changed daily. Because, no offense to the makers, they usually aren't that good.

  • 03.14.2008 11:51 PM PDT

really cry a river will ya...

in my opinion most of the bungie Favs were bad only a handful of them were cool
None of them show skill like the one with 43 medals or something like that most
pointless thing ever.....

I just see Bungie Favourites where we see Community stuff. That's why Bungie made it... for the community. And I don't think MLG need anymore advertising.
Guess what? MLG is a part of the Halo community, and it's going nowhere. ;-)

You're right to a certain extent. There has always been a community for it, but never has it been specifically endorsed by Bungie until here recently (at least at the magnitude it is now). With the type of publicity this brings them I expect a lot of new things to come from it. For better or for worse is still up for debate.
