do u guys know if the new acheivements will make u loss ur sword n helm from 1000 gamer points on halo3?

  • 09.07.2008 6:21 AM PDT

awsome! More achivements I won't b able to get lol

  • 09.07.2008 6:24 AM PDT

ItsK

i wonder if there is going to be a new reward for getting all of the achievements like a katana for elites or recon armor (seeming that bungie gets new armor for themselves). but im still against the new ranking system i like one rank and my skill levels (the current system), but im for the new maps and more achievements.

PEOPLE!
its too late to be doing these updates like the new ranks and achievements. halo 3 is my favorite game, but its been around 4 over a year now and its tired already.

all im saying is, people dont play as much as they used to so this is pointless.

thanks for listening and take this into consideration.

dude

- 7 is a tradition it goes back 15 years

-dont bash bungie then console them theyll ban u

-if ur stupid enuf 2 threaten the banhammer u deserve it

- those 0 achiements were most likely jokes

-never compare halo 2 a -blam!- game like Ava-Free Achievement-tar its a -blam!- game

- wut are u doing on the bungie site -blam!-ing about stuff u love anyways ITS ANNOYING U LOOK LIKE A FOOL

-WTF DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE WHO U PLAY IN GRIFF BALL ITS 1ce A MONTH
god i can see how bungie gets annoyed with morons like u


Wow. I'm amazed people like you exist.

I could care less that the "7" thing is a tradition. I just find it odd that they have to milk the whole idea of the number or what it entails to like Square Enix does to Final Fantasy.

I don't think they'll ban me just because my opinion is different, so go eat a c***.

If those achievements were jokes, the ones being 0 points, why make them at all?

I compared the aspect of some of the SIMPLE achievements coming out giving you a lot of points (I find it weird that for sticking 5 people with grenades in a FFA match only gets me so many points, yet simply melee-killing someone while having a flag gets me a decent amount) being similar to the game Avatar, where, you can get the entire game's worth of gamerscore within the first few minutes of the game.

You ask me what I'm doing on the bungie site blamming about stuff I love? Well obviously I'm not the only one doing this and if I have a concern or want to complain about something....I think I should let the people who made the game I love KNOW how I feel. ALSO TYPING IN CAPS LIKE THIS AND NOT BENG ALBE 2 WIRTE CORRETLY makes you look like the fool, ass-clown.

The difference it makes, I see, in playing with more people around your skill, is more of a chance your game doesn't get screwed up by someone vastly different in rank/skill either on your team or any of the others. I've seen several games where my fiance's logged in some Griffball games, and yesterday, 3-ball games (Fun game BTW, Bungie.), where nearly everyone BUT her was one of the few players near her level. I only get annoyed having to deal with an inexperienced rookie of APPRENTICE level being on my team, getting shot every second, costing me a game. It would make things EASIER though to customize how you wanna play even a weekend game, is all I'm saying.

By the way, it's funny you made fun of me yet you look much worse than I

In response to everyone asking for new crap from achievements:
Bungie has already said that there will be no new armor.

Edit:
