Did you guys change anything in the campaign? I was watching my son play as I was getting ready for work, I could have sworn he started with weapons on Crow's Nest.

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.

2nd page!

I do not like this update. 8 man Lone Wolves is just a run and gun kill fest without any skill. I'm also getting matched up against people way higher than me because the matching spread is so big. I also hate how I have to get all my levels back again in each playlist and that there's way more 'sleeper' players who are really good and are Generals in other playlists showing up as recruits now next to their names.

You cant complain about needing to buy new maps to get new achievments. ok, well you CAN, but countless other games add achievments for their DLC (mass effect, GoW, Godfather, ect.) This is just diffirent because bungie is adding the achievments after the maps were released. Its like a perk for people who downloaded the maps, and it doesnt hurt those who havnt.

I'm a little confused about one of the achievements.

Vidmaster Challenge: Annual (0 points) – After 9/25/08, complete Halo on 4-player Legendary LIVE co-op, with Iron, and everyone in Ghosts

Correct me if I am wrong but ghosts are not always available. Let alone 4 of them at a time. How that supposed to work?

maybe when you are running through the platforms that are exploding, there will be ghost to ride now (maybe there were before, cant recall), making it so everyone has to drive well enough to reach the end.

I believe ghosts are available on Legendary with 4 people on the final level, they're located down the side of the ziggurat.

My question is, when it says "4 player legendary LIVE co-op" does that mean we all have to be on different consoles, or can we be on 1 or two consoles as long as we are all logged on to Live?

Where be my BR update?

  • 09.23.2008 9:30 AM PDT

the achievement r sooooo cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

  • 09.23.2008 9:31 AM PDT

This update is horrible.

There has been obvious tweaks and glitches that give the people who just plain suck at the game the total edge over to decent players.

This update is laggy, glitchy, ruined any work people put into getting a legit 50 or a General, and just plain ruined Halo 3 multiplayer.

It was fine the way it was.

This isn't Halo anymore, it's help the scrubs buff the nubs and leave the veterans out in the cold.

Same here... You get used games for same money than the map pack...

Check you my Helm's Deep Beta map and gametype variants: http://www.bungie.net/stats/Halo3/FileShare.aspx?gamertag=TWD %20Bum

Don't forget to leave feedback for the map and gametype. I hope to change it in the future based on people's reactions to make a truly enjoyable experience.

I agree, where are the actual changes to the game? Where is the reload glitch fix? Where is the correction to the horrible host selection process? BR spread is questionable, but I'd rather see that than a few new achievements and a new COMPLETELY worthless player ratings system. I really don't get the purpose of yet ANOTHER way to rate a player. It's isn't necessary at all. And new achievements? Who seriously cares that they now have to spend MORE time to get everything done in the game, a year after it released?

I'm sorry, but this is the most pathetic excuse for "new and exciting" I've ever witnessed. To all you idiots who want to spend 15 minutes getting these new achievements, fine, have fun. But we all know that fixes to the core game problems would make a LOT more people happy and ultimately create a better game. How it got through a public beta with this many problems is baffling, but how these problems still are not being addressed is something else completely.

Have fun flaming me you blind Bungie followers.
