I hope to god they are not planning on rewarding people for finishing the vid master challenge,I mean if they are and its something cool *not recon,recon sucks in my eyes* then meh,this would be kind of a disappointment,also if this is just a countdown to their birthday then....-blam!-.


I kinda doubt they'd pull either of those stunts. I mean, I'm not one for shooting down any theories, it's why we're here. But Bungie is a lot more grateful to their fans than most companies. For them to just say "Happy Birthday" and piss off isn't like them. Especially with the amount of work they've been putting into the Superintendent.

And they really seem to like how rare their Recon armor is. I doubt they'd make it public.

The one reservation I do hold, is that I think people that think we're getting the Mythic Maps for free or whatever are a little too enthusiastic about this whole thing. Odds are it'll just be an announcement of some sort. It'll be a big announcement, but I'm not expecting something that will change my life, or my Halo 3 experience drastically, if at all.

For now anyway =D

The whole reason is though like if anyone gets any reward for the vidmaster stuff I have no plans on even trying for it,I mean why try to get an achievement if its just going to give out something.

I don't think I'll be trying the Annual one anytime soon. But I can see myself grabbing the 7 on 7 pretty easily. And the Lightswitch is just bound to happen eventually.

Yeah,I pretty much stopped playing matchmaking,I'm more into forge and modding for others that want maps created.

I envy that. I've tried getting used to Forge but I lack the basic motor skills to figure out that damn joystick to move things around. I usually just dick around for a couple minutes then quit and do matchmaking.

Yeah,I hear that,but forge has gone way down since about 4 months or so back,now its everyone trying to make maps to get recon,no one is really doing maps to just build,its a shame that it has come to this,forge was so good in the beginning but everyones running out of ideas and that frustrates them.

For those not wanting to do the Vidmaster Co-op achievement i recommend you give it a go. It's not like you have to do the whole campaign, just the last level. Make sure you have 4 people though, because i tried it with 2 real people and 2 guests and it was not easy. with 4 people we got it done in about half an hour to 45 minutes......And we died a fair bit haha

And no doubt you know about Bungie saying there will be a good reward for getting all the Vidmaster achievements, even though we don't know what it is; it's a good enough reason for me to do it :)

PS: 3 hours woot woot lol (at least i think it's 3 hours......I live in Australia and the time is a bit messed up because it runs off your own pc's clock lol)

Yea i have it, got it about 6 hours ago haha.

I think Bungie said in their TU2 FAQ that they made it so you could get it from the second the update came out because of the issue with Time Zones.........Like me in Australia, we are about 15 or 16 hours ahead of you guys in the US

For sure. I see a lot of familiar names in the last few pages from the previous SI thread and this one, but it looks like they've all gone to sleep with visions of spartans dancing through their heads.
yep their all sleeping, they said they will not be around when the countdown ends because of school, its a good thing I don't have school thursdays and fridays
