They've already announced that they will come out on the same day which was september 15th I believe, I need to go back to last weeks update to confirm it although this update does mention they might push them back.

About investigating quitting:

Why should I be discouraged from choosing what I like and dislike in a game experience? Maybe in Ranked Matches you should be able to penalize people who dampen the experiences of their teammates, but I really, really do not like the idea that I should be coerced into playing a game I don't want to. Whether I dislike the map/game setup, or the other team is just slaughtering me and I don't feel like watching them keep my flag in their base and not scoring so they can kill me 4000 more times, why should I be penalized for choosing what I like or don't like to play?

The same way I rent games and decide if I want to buy them or not, I will continue to try playlists, gametypes, each night, and decide based on what I experience which I will or will not play.

And honestly you can penalize us however. I think it's a ridiculous idea that shows how far you've put your game on a pedestal and forgotten the idea of casual 30 seconds of fun, but I am not a rank/exp/status whore. I am a had fun with Halo 1 and 2 and enjoyed some moments with 3 here guy, who thinks you guys might be taking your creation a bit too serious.


I think a solution would be some sort of drop in/drop out joining thing for social, sort of like COD 4, I don't know if that would be possible but it would be cool.

Off topic: I want my heroic member status back, just because I was banned doesn't mean I sould get it revoked :(

Great update once again Bungie. I see your marketing campaign worked at PAX there with the achievables.

Kind-of like what you guys did at Comic Con with Cole Protocol. *Cough* *Cough*

  • 09.05.2008 6:59 PM PDT

I just noticed that I've posted on every page since page 7 and while playing Bungie at PAX the score was once tied at seven to seven and it is approximately seven oclock right now. quite a few Bungie sevens in my life right now.

I'm MMLG: Mega Major League Gaming. That makes me pretty cool.

I am super-pleased about the banning of habitual quitters but what's the downlow on this new banning system that is also taking place? It's rather vague (which I'm not sure was purposefully done or not). Anyway, are they banning people for cussing, racist/sexist remarks, and overall poor sportsmanship?

If so, how do they evaluate and judge what's considered offensive or being a "bad sport?" Likewise, whose to say what is or isn't too bad? Where would the line be set as something like that is next to impossible to set regulatory guidelines for?

Anyway, looking forward to the new Assembly map.

No problem,

I haven't heard about any new vehicles. I'll check it out though. A hopping vehicle sounds slow.

I'm assuming there will be no new armor for these achievments, but will katana and security have to be re-earned? Nevermind.

I didn't blow up the sun so you kids could brag about it! Now get out there and fight some aliens!

Yay more achievements, I personally have a biff with the early quitter thing is it gonna detect whether the person quits or if they're just lagged out by dodgy internet? Coz personally I think if they're lagged out it ain't their fault (it happens to me... a lot!)
