Now all we need is the dashboard update and it will be complete, mabye the new achievments are somehow tied in with that as well.

really? the update hasn't even been out for a day and most of you are complaining? seriously, your confusing dislike with "not used to the update".

  • 09.23.2008 6:27 PM PDT

I like the new achievements and game specific skill levels. This refreshes the game and gives me a couple more reasons to keep playing.

Thanks Bungie for trying to make our halo experience better and better

I think that this update crap is bull-blam!- and utter junk, the only good thing is the new map pack coming out and the achievements, all the rest of it -blam!- sucks, I miss Ranked Big team which was mainly slay games and 8 vs 8

I don't get the update either. I mean, I'm sure we'll get used to some of it. But how about forcing people to buy the Legendary Map Pack now in order to play doubles??? That's my favorite gametype bungie, what are you doing?? I'm sure giving it out for free would probably appease some of the angry mob that seems to be forming...

  • 09.23.2008 6:48 PM PDT

Will we ever see the "Party Leader Edit Only" bug fixed for Forge? (If you know what it is you know what I'm talking about)

I got home and put in some time w/the new update. Unfortunately, i think i'll be staying away from H3 for a while. In addition to the horrible lag (to be expected), the matching system was flawed, so most games ended up w/a team of generals vs my team of entry and mid-level players.

Nice to see new achievements, but i feel like the "wow" factor of them is negated by how bad the new matchmaking system is.

this update is terrible the new maps such as epitath and snowbound without sheild doors are just so bad they are nearly unplayable for someone who uses stealth rather than runing in dieing and hopeing for that granade they droped to get them the kill.

as for snipers on the new epitath that to is horrible there is hardly any cover

there has been a change to our ranks to this means you have to work hard to get your ranks all over again bungie has done this so people will continue playing the game and it will most likely work for the majority of halo players that play pretty much everyday but for me personally i fel that because i have worked for a rank already it should not be taken away and made so i ahve to get them all over again for all the different playlists.

they have also released the update with the new achivements which for most of the u need to be on a "mythic map" or a "ledgendary" map which u have to pay for i personaly have the maps so it dose not affect me but the only problem i have is that these new maps arnt even out so how am i suposed to get the achivments. this just shows that bungie has been sloopy in this area. I am sure they will be comin out soon but it is just common sence that they are out at the same time no?

i personaly cant see me playing halo as much after this update it just wont be the same.


Veto.

Hide.

I believe this is a very good addition as you will be paired with people based on their exp and not skill.

They have already mentioned that they put the achievements for the mythic maps intentionally because the new maps HAVE YET TO BE RELEASED. They are not sloppy at all.

i worked hard to get to major, and my roommate was one skill away from lt, now he has to start over. WTF!!! and who the heck thought up splockets??? it sucks.

  • 09.23.2008 7:02 PM PDT

I have to agree, Bungie, is becoming a disappointment and I think if they keep doing stuff like this, people are going to stop playing, I worked hard for my captain rank

Bungie, u guys r workin hard and doin great. . . no offense, but i dont like the new stuff u did, i was only 4 achlievements away from the katana, im at leutenent, and now i have to get like 30 more achievements, not to mention some of them are extremely hard to get and some are a bit random and weird, i dont like the new achievement thing, most ppl havent even got all the achievements.now i have to get all my rank and skill up, and did u take off ranked big teams? i tried to go on it and there was some squad thing with only 2-6 players. i dont like all the tons of new stuff. . . . .i would rather had it how it used to and/or add new things bit by bit, not some dramatic change. . . . it was cool b4 now i dont like it as much. and btw do u think i could play u guys some time in a swords match or somethin? just me and u guys! i want a real challenge. . . . reply to me or something a gamertag of someone thats 4 bungie and i can play u guys. keep up the good work, u guys did a good job on this game. . . . . o and i think u guys should make new armour cuz its the only way to get me to get the new achievements, otherwise im sticking to my 4 achievements and. . . . if i can still get the katana, and security helmet, and get my 1000 gamerscore.
