Yeah son

I forgot that we weren't aloud to talk about recon so i changed my comment sorry. but what i did say was that Bungie you guys should make recon unlockable . It would be a great update and would make everyone really happy. Plus, you wouldnt have to put up with everyone asking. Thanks if you actually look at his comment. Thanks x1,000,000 if you do it.

If you make it buy able i would get it NO doubt

(please don't ban my account it was just a suggestion)

Loved the Monty Python at the end... is that how you will be doing explosion physics in the future? ;o)

Glad to read that Team Snipers will be making an appearance. I stink at Snipers, but it's fun (honestly, I stink at everything); although, I do think Shotty Snipers is fun *ducks*. Also glad about SWAT. Will the FFA version of SWAT make a reappearance at all?

Heres the link to the MLG live feed. Its ok tonight but sat and sun nights it gets intense.

I had a well written amusing post but it didn't go through so heres the short version.

Its pretty lame that you guys aren't making the legendary pack free when you drop the next set. I can count on one hand the times i played heroic maps in non-dlc MM before you made them free. So slight chance of Blackout in TS and no chance of Avalanche in BTB, which sucks cause while 6 in dlc is ok, 8s would be so much better.

You guys are going to make a ton of money when 500,000+ ppl dwnld your maps for 10.00$US on and around the 15th(do the math), for you not to make them free so we can have more maps in MM is pretty weak bungie. I know you don't have your sugar daddy BillG anymore but your descion not to make them free in 4 months is just greedy. You have a FAITHFUL following but your facing some competion this summer, GTA MSG SoulCaliber, i'd hate to see your numbers drop dramatically if Legendary follows the path that Heroic did.

If i'm wrong than good, but lots of ppl considered Heroic a waste of money considering the only place to play it was in DLC, so we got tired of Heroic real quick, and went back to other hoppers which....had the same maps we've been doing since day one.

I'm not saying give them away for free in May, i'm just saying the way you made Heroic free around when you dropped Legendary was nice. It is really nice to get Standoff in TS.

Dont get too wrapped up in the Internet. It's already forgotten about you.

You know what, Bungie?

Screw you.

I can just hear you guys in your marketing meetings:

"Here's a way to sell maps since the last map pack didn't sell very well... Let's make SWAT require the Legendary map pack because SWAT was SOOOOO popular!"

You make me wish that I didn't like Halo because it's such a money pit.

First I got freaking ripped off buying the "Legendary Edition" of H3 which was NOT Legendary at all and is easily available at any gameshop now for under $80 NEW in the box.
And now you want to pork another $10 buck out of me to play SWAT.

Yeah, I'm sure I'll be playing Avalanche a hell of a lot on SWAT.

Whatever, Bungie.
It's bull crap and you know it.
There is NO reason to REQUIRE the new maps for a playlist and you know it.

I hear if you ask him enough in person, he may even give you Recon armor. Just something I heard.He's going to punch you in the face when he gets back... Be sure to let us know how that goes =]

i found IWHBYD without hex!

Poor Lukems. He's going to get spammed a ton over that recon issue...

  • 04.11.2008 6:18 PM PDT

So does this mean that news posts will now be considered?

I have never posted anything before...

What?! How many times does this need to be said. BUNGIE DOES NOT SELL THE MAPS! MICROSOFT DOES! If you insist on getting pissed off and making yourself look like an idiot on the internet, please, at least do it in the right place. And they're probably requiring the map pack for SWAT because of the OTHER two maps in it... You know, the close quarters, fast paced, small maps that everyone's been begging for...

The Crimson Avenger.

The picture is from monty python and the meaning of life. Sad that nobody knows that one on the first page......Make you think, how old these kids are that are posting these things and do not know about monty python....???? Good one gentlemen for your infomatic update.


The Red Death has arrived, with the Crimson Avenger at the helm.

Typical Halo nerd. Move along.

Awesome! SWAT will be a permanent Playlist!!! Thanks Bungie!!!

  • 04.11.2008 6:31 PM PDT

Feel free to send me friend requests!

I'm shelling out $10 for the new maps (and apparently for Bungie Pro), I wish they would appear in Team Objective or Team Slayer apart from the strict DLC playlists and SWAT; I want to play them semi-competitively in a non-social environment, but, let's face it, SWAT is fun but isn't really classic Halo. Why not put them into MLG? Or is that MLG's call? People playing competitive would likely have bought them anyway...

"Holy Captain Kirk's Nipples!"

What about the people who already have BungiePro? do they get an extra 4 months or does it not affect us?

People who already have Bungie PRO will get four months added to the end of their current subscription.

Whoever wants 50 just to say they got 50 in Halo 3 needs a life, BADLY... And I thought I was short on having one...
