Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Lol - First reading now...

What a hoot - I can't even read all of that, I'm too busy playing.

How come I'm never on the front page anymore for the updates? I've got the same job and schedule... weird

Bo.

The filters would be great fun for sniper battles. Especially the pen and ink one.

Will we be able to use more than one filter?

Fear the Pink

I love you, bungie.

When life gives you lemons, make grapejuice and sit back and relax while the world wonders how you did it.

I'm a hyperactive, very sneaky and prone to laughing like a crazed maniac. I love seeing stuff blow up and fire is my third favorite thing behind soda and movies. Other than that I'm usually a good conversation...

DUDE that is awesome!!! ......I can't believe im going to say this......... Me horny for Legendary Map Pack!!!!!
I can't wait to try out some of the new items, forge might even get better....again!

My H3 File Share for all your guilty pleasures...
My favorite professional Halo team ever: Final Boss

Bumper Jumper, 3 sensitivity, no vibration (H:CE & H2 are Boxer)
Halo 2 being my favorite Halo game to date
Halo fan since 2003

Yes yes nice update. New stuff, brand new ideas and some more information. BUT... The heroic map pack is free for 2 weeks now and Ive been matchmaking in the first week and forging in the second week on foundry and I have to say. Placing weapons is easy like I did with my forged guardian and soon coming highground and valhalla, but buildig or remaking a map is.... so hard especially with a controller. The Budget system made me mad couple times and placing some stuff were so time consuming. I hate that. you guys really need to fix the way you can build in forge. Its ridiculous to make a perfect map with no mistakes or whatsoever.

Im excited with these maps and forge items, but atleast make an another update with smoother gameplay in forge and some bugs here and there. Make a hold and unlock thing, undo or delete button, 90 degrees rotation with the d-pad or something and maybe things like floating objects in the air without having to build up first and than deleting the object beneath the object you would like to float. Im just saying man, its really annoying.

Halo3 has so much potential to be the game everybody wanted in the first place. It also going the right way, thats a good thing. Now start reading forums better with real problems instead of stupid returning playlists (yes i want swat and sniper back but whatever) or recon armor for everybody etc. You guys looked for the most wanted maps and you remade them! We also got kinda swat back and some surprises so Im not saying you guys are doing bad things. Just look for those stupid bugs and glitches in the game. Play the game and write down those things that are strange or not appropriate. Make things perfect.... is that too much to ask? Halo is everything for me and when the time comes (over 5 years? For me never I tell u that!) that everybody is playing your next succesfull game we want to have great memories you guys did everything for us to keep playing halo3.

Great update, but take a look at the real problems instead of making more new things (maps/remakes excluded lol). Another AU would be great. LATER!

PS Im a fan of you Lars Bakken. Youre great in the halo3 videos on marketplace. You also remind me of myself so thats why... keep on laughing at your parents haha.

PPS Ok. I take it back. Grifball doesn't suck ;) My first 6 games Friday were just wierd. I just played like 50 in a row and its fantastic. Especially the ease to get the killionaire and the extermenation medal. Yeah, its a good game. Make this social plz. jus like Rocket Race.

PPPS Make every heroic map pack-only object and the objects in the legendary maps available for ALL maps! Especially the filters. If you guys wont do it, this will be very dissapointing! Think about it...

the must have things in this map pack are easily the filters, like omg!!!! the maps are awesome too....but i just wished they added the option of using foundry's containers on any map...or at least the walls and fence walls.

  • 04.05.2008 11:50 AM PDT

Man, cant wait.
oh, and: OMG! 10th page!!! WOOT!! I WILL RULE THE WORLD!!!

well it all looks amazing, but I would love to see the TRANSPORT WARTHOG involved. Especially if it was in Sandtrap. for an Infection game called "RUN" where zombies can run the same speed as vehicles and are partly camoed, your only safety is to get in a vehicle or RUN! it's highly addictive especially when your the last person driving around and getting chased by 11 half camoed zombies who could ambush you at any corner.

I feel that the transport warthog could add a huge diversity to huge maps like Avalanche and allow for blitzkrieg tactics so to speak. It would allow for pin point penetration into enemy territory and a new twist to future maps.

Overall I am uber pumped to see these maps and I can't wait to get out of school and have real internet without the massive amount of firewalls. Also being able to play online is going to be amazing...again haha

Omg, the forge items look sweet. I am seriously going to try our blackout first, although nobody likes blackout because it's a remake, but it looks promising. Also...can I has Legendary Maps? I joke.

Also, I plan to make some infection gametypes on Ghost Town because that looks like the perfect map.

Contradicting Qoutes
Nothing ventured, nothing gained/Better safe then sorry
The more the merrier/Two's company, three's a crowd
Never to old to learn/You can't teach an old dogs new tricks
Actions speak louder than words/The pen is mightier than the sword
Look before you leap/He who hesitates is lost
Clothes make the man/Dont judge a book by its cover

How will the filters work, if you`re niside does everything else look dif, or you`re out and that area only looks dif, or do the filters cover the whole map, and laslty, can you place more the one? so many questinos! come on bungie, why not release it on the 10th

I have walked among men and angels for three thousand years. Time has no end... no beginning... no purpose.
I wander the earth, seeking forgiveness for my horrible crimes against God and man.
I live to see death, destruction, over the light, but the light cannot be extinguished.
I live in a prison of my own demise.
I am lost in time. -Gravemind-

Closest thing yet to changing the daytime settings. Thats still pretty awesome with the filters though. Keep up the good work and keep continuing to surprise us.
