Another pointless update...

  • 08.15.2008 7:32 PM PDT

Reach. Reach. Reach.

omg people, ya'll are OBVIOUSLY terrible at understanding small basic "cryptic" messages. Let me post what I've got from the 2 seconds I've looked at it.

"From the Mouths of Babes

It’s all so hush-hush right now. But a bunch of folks sent me some examples of what they are currently working on here at Bungie. What does it all mean?


Automating ventriloquism. ***ventrilo is sound what could they develop sound for... hmmmm***
David Aldridge, Network Engineer

Throwing some shapes, urban style ***Mapmaker possibly***
Sam Jones, Art Lead

Generating pathfinding... again ***cmon kids.... bots, they're ---ing bots or more campaign (doubtful)***
Lars Bakken, Designer

Moving markers. ***BOTS!!!!!***
Josh, Production Engineer

Dropping metal donuts from the sky. ***An object not able to be edited in isolation but if modded it was... so either more forge options or mapmaker***
John Gronquist, jizzle stain Artist

Making rough calls about how pouncy they should be. ***I mean.... ARE YOU SERIOUS? YOU HAVE TO GET THAT ONE***
Chris Opdahl, Lead Mission Designer"

Bots or more campaign, but I doubt they'll reveal more campaign right now because they have such a huge unveiling in the future for the continuation of the series and it won't continue in this game... I can almost promise you, so I'm guessing bots.... this means so much for me specifically but for forgers and people who want to playtest maps more this is epic.

happy... I "decoded" that hard wall of text to understand.... god you people complain so much about bungie it makes me sick that they still put up with it and produce stuff because they like the game.



can i say.... your crazy

WINNING RECON!!! If only I lived near the Penny Arcade Expo. Seeing a voice-actor for Halo (Jen Taylor) ain't bad either. You should have these things at the east coast.

Come on I don't want hints and want straight up announcements, something big, PLEASE just reveal something to us already.

Don't push me friend!

Iphone? Pfffffff. Instinct is where it's at

  • 08.15.2008 7:40 PM PDT

YOU MESS WITH THE BEST, YOU DIE LIKE THE REST.

hey lukems... when they say "once you've hade a shot at glory, thats it." does this mean you can still earn RECON short of battling Bungie (like sending in hilarious videos, etc.), or does it mean loseing to Bungie = your banned from recon?

  • 08.15.2008 7:40 PM PDT

I had 3 Halo 3 Beta Invites, 2 Halo: Reach Beta Invites

Only recon armor is a barren wasteland

HA, can we have a day where Bungie just makes the entire update out of word puzzles like this? That would pretty much make my life.

I'm not riding their dick you wanna be elitist, I'm just saying that you kids are -blam!- hating on bungie when they just gave you an OBVIOSLY informative update and all the things they do don't mean that you can hate on them for not revealing what they're working on all at once... most gamemakers don't even bother half as much but you people just can't appreciate generocity... you need to get psychological help because you might just be too obsessed with this game that you come to bnet and complain that it "sucks" when I'm sure you play it anyways.... YOU! might want to get a life kid, enjoy what you do or don't do it.

btw, not to flame but your message was pretty harsh and undeserved for what I said... but your name is "Joker da iLLest" with alternating letters..... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA







-blam!-

You think it got what it takes to be..?.


God forbid you send me one of those I was checking for cool gamers and saw you messages too, I will scream to the top of my lungs and smash this damn screen/BlackBerry to pieces! You've been warned -_-

Nice post from an iPhone. Technology is advanced...sometimes I post from a Blackberry.

Does this mean it's all a big puzzle? Like some sort of code?

yes, there is mention of cryptology which is study of understanding secret code. Not to mention bungie is famous for making codes in their announcement aas you can trace the release of sidewinder remake and lockout remake to back a few months before they were released

  • 08.15.2008 8:05 PM PDT

Well, from what I read (from the update) I've got to say I like what I think I'm hearing.
Potentially a new game with a female lead character. Sounds like she might have attitude.

I'm kinda surprised that Bungie's getting iPhones for corporate use... However, I suppose a few treats here an there aren't all that bad.

Here's hoping that Luke'll get to the next Bungie Podcast soon. Although... If the Bungie Day podcast is any indication, you folks are uber-busy. So it's understandable as to why it wouldn't be ready... yet... ish.

In any case... Hope you folks have fun doing whatever you're doing. Just don't forget to charge your iPhones, and try not to make "her" butch.
