ty bungie, i just love SWAT also....... 2 questions, does swat stand for anything and is there any chance that it will become permanent as a ranked playlist game. PLZ RESPOND

yea SWAT stands for Special Weapons And Tactics....

yea and I've been plying SWAT in custom games with my friends because I liked it so much and now I can't get over the fact one shot to the head doesn't kill.:<

Man, I really wish Bungie would just make Team SWAT a permanent playlist.
Atleast on social!

Cause I don't think they would make it ranked.


Nah, they wouldn't make it ranked. As some people may recall, there were problems when Bungie introduced SWAT on Halo 2 as ranked. Eventually, they took it down and stuck it in unranked. xD Also, with Halo 3's online medal chests, I highly doubt SWAT would be ranked as some medals are easy to get (like extermination).

SWAT needs to go away forever, it doesn't work in Halo 3 due to the horrible BR.

Maybe if the Carbine was available to start with but noooo..


While it's true the BR has seen some change, I think it's changed for the better. Feels more responsive.

By the way.... Carbine = Lame, but it IS better than the current magnum. If it replaces SWAT Magnums in the playlist, I'd be alright with that. xD


but if they replaced the pistol with the carbine, how am i supposed to get kills? br/carbine? pfft, too easy to get headshots, that's why i used straight up pistol all weekend(oter than occasional nade and beat down)


I don't think you understood what I was saying, lol. I'm sure you've noticed how there are two variants of SWAT currently. Normal Team SWAT (which has br as primary and a magnum as secondary) and SWAT Magnums (which is only, well, magnums).

I'm merely suggesting to get rid of SWAT Magnums (the game variant itself) and bring in SWAT Carbines. Halo 2 had all 3 variants of course, but the Halo 3 magnum/pistol sucks and I'd rather use a carbine.

Understand now? Lmao. :P

The Sentinel Beam isn't excluded from Matchmaking due to any performance concerns. It's excluded because it's ridiculous. It may as well be firing super-accelerated clowns. - Shishka

I miss SWAT already :(

It really sucks when you get home from doing the whole easter thing and think that when you get home you and your family members could sign on to halo 3 and play SWAT before the weekend ends, and its GONE!!! PLEASE BRING SWAT BACK!!!

I'm not actually -blam!-, I just hate boobs.

I like to tape strawberries to my tits.

So when swat comes back around, will it stay around? I think it was a major playlist that everybody liked back in halo 2.

I think that Bungie should Replace Rocket Race or just make Team Swat a regular variant you can play.

its not that headshots arent registering, its that the 3 bullet burst didnt hit their head. watch it in theater. but i have noticed bs deaths. have a couple on film. maybe its the lag and on my view of it, it looks fake. but on the other persons screen they are getting me. i notice that in COD4

*tip* aim above their head

Wow, I think it's perfect with the new BR because it now actually takes some aim.

Your just mad because you can't sweep kill in the new SWAT as easily.
Auto-aim- whore!

Anyway, I don't think its any worse, I got an extermination in SWAT yesterday and that made me happy :)


More like horrible BR aim...

Long Live SWAT!!!

Out of all of the planets inhabitants there was only one, only one like John.
