anybody who types in all caps, and typifies everything bungie hates outside of recon whoring, is not going to be taken seriously.

How r we gonna do the 2v2 thing?

I know I have an issue with my temper and may say and do things in a match that are embarrassing and regretful. I try my best to control it but things tend to get on my nerves...like Armor Lock for example. :P
So if I do do or say something bad, then I'm sorry I didn't really mean it and you should just get over it.
Thank you.

New map looks awesome!

It would be really cool if luke showed us the screenshot that he took the drawing from... please?

While I probably won't like the arena like nature of Assembly, I have to admit that it IS the best looking piece of anything bungie has ever created.

pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee stfu man if u like halo 2 so much then only play halo 2
it would be like if people start asking the dev of cod world of war to bring back glitches and al the other stuff that was in cod 3
And by the way it’s not as if bungie or Microsoft gets money every time a new Match starts
And also 64,000 people is alot of people but not enough to make bungie go out of business

I got to play on Assembly today and I must say Bungie did a GREAT job. I really liked it. Thanks Bungie!!!

Formerly the Queen of Blades.

I play video games. I watch cartoons. I'm going to an art school, SVA (google it if you actually care). I am of the female persuasion. Yes, we do exist on the internet. No, I will not make you a sandwich or any other food. Nor will I do you any favors.

*sigh* Is it just me, or do screenshots always look a gazillion times awesomer when they come from Bungie?

Anyways... sweet-ness.

call me crazy-but does that remind anyone of Halo 2: Ascention? because i can see ascention somewhere in that (the level with the rocky cliff, up high, rotating structure in middle)

That level has an insane backround! one that i would like to vote may be the best looking, it looks like a kind of "super scarab" demolishing the area below. it would be great to see if it was animated.


Not only are these easily some of the most sophisticated and straight up beautiful shots, but you beat me to the punch - I definetly see Midship, Gemini, and Ascension in that map!

I am anxious to get my Blood Gulch/Coagulation back, but if this brings back elements of Acension and Gemini in such a stunning setting...woot! Here is my money Bungie!
