why so late?



You'll know sorta soon. I promise


maybe its because as you said in another post that you were busy and gonna post it late so you were flicking the switch for Au2 and it will be up tommorow? just a guess.


Nope. No AU2 anytime soon. You guys really need to calm down overall. There's not much to talk about right now: Deal with it.

The other, very real possibility, like Sketch has mentioned before, is that maybe on weeks when there isn't anything, we'll just not put one up.

A little shot. I'm sure people will express their displeasure at this over the coming pages.

Still, your notices about recon should cut down on the spam screenshots I get.

I'm sure it's hard finding stuff to put in the weekly update since you can't tell us yet what you're working on. It would be nice though to have a little more info on AU2, the September update, and how far along the new maps are even if you can't say what they are yet. Oh well, there's always next week.

DEEP NNN = Depends

Clan 2old2pwn on 2old2play.

Don't let yesterday use up too much of today.

I can't say I don't appreciate all of the article updates and enhancements.

I'm on my last Rum of the night and I was hoping for .... something....more.

Young or old all fanboys are the same, I guess. I've never been a fanboy before.

Still playing Campaign with friends. Thanks.

How about serialized campaign next time?

Darn, page 4, you'll never reply to me.

Can't believe all these r*con moochers can't build up enough common sense to know the listed "how to not get recon" items, I mean how many times does Bungie have to tell them this, especially in a few updates now >=/

  • 08.08.2008 7:06 PM PDT

Guys, think about it. Look at the video they sent G4. They said they are working on something and then everyone interrupts Marty and says stuff like "Keep It Clean!" "Stick to the script!" Then to top it all of, Lukems said we will find out shortly why it took so long. I don't know about you guys, but that is quite a few hints of something big about to unfold.

Behind the fence in Rat's Nest. ;)

As for the update, short, but I'm downloading the goodies that were posted.

Also, gratz on the GOTY award from G4.

I'm a teacher that plays Halo. What of it?

For those of you that think that AI Bots are just a "plug em in and let em go" type deal, watch some of the AI videos and you'll see how complicated it really is.

I remember watching one of those videos about reworking the AI in Halo 3. In particular, on Tsavo Highway. The Marines AI got them so pumped up about driving the Warthog that they'd leave you in the base to walk the equivalent of 7 miles.

I don't blame you for that.

People are getting extremely jaded.

Especially that the background of that video looks like a map we haven't seen before.

That is a huge hint. Kinda indicating something will happen. Honestly, what ever it is you guys are working on will be worth the wait.

TEAM Free For All? I can't wait to see how Bungie pulls this one off.

Yeah, it's awesome. Legendary Brawl is the world's only 1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1 team multiplayer experience.

ok well i was just wondering and that was my guess but i dont really want Au2 to come out i just want to know the release date. But i do like the playlist changes for team doubles. It makes it so much more fun then just regular slayer and brings back good halo 2 memories

I don't think anyone is really trying to be unappreciative or anything. Everyone is just kind of anxious. Lots of stuff has been hyped lately and we're all dying to know more.

The Lovat Scouts motto.

The reason for this is that we’ve been focused on preparing a larger series of changes to Matchmaking for September. Much larger.

Much, much larger.

No, really. It’s huge. You should see how giddy Luke gets when I talk about the tentative plan.
