Tank beats hunter.
Tank beats phantom.
Tank beats everything.
I beat tank.

The new update comes 2 days after my 360 gets the RRoD...
Have fun with the new achievements for those who can, I suppose.

Bungie,

Thank you for the continued support for one of the best games ever.
It's not everyday you find a game developer that supports and maintains a game like you guys. Thanks for your hard work and devotion to the halo universe.

Those who will not be team players, will make GREAT shields

Well, obviously there are plenty of people who are malcontents who don't like Halo 3 being updated, but if it upsets them that much, obviously they are completely free to go play other games.
Anyways, not to go and crush hopes, but I really REALLY REALLY doubt that there is a chance of all the new maps, or really any of them, to end up being free, since Microsoft is who sets the prices, not Bungie. That, and it DOES take time and money to create new maps, so releasing them for free on a game as popular as Halo would end up costing a lot of money for the company.
At any rate, I'm excited to go spend more time exploring the new little changes, and of course bigger ones, and then once the new maps come out, oh happy day!

why the heck did you guys make it where you have to have legendary map pack for team doubles! thats so freakin stupid. at least make the maps free


At some point Bungie is screwing more people by not putting the maps gamers paid for in the playlists than not. It seems as if a large enough percentage of the active palyer base has the Legendary Maps and thus justifies them making more playlists require them.

Why not just go purchase them for $10? The Legendary Maps are some of my favorites in the game.

great, so all of us good players need to play even more to get our visible rank up, AGAIN!!!:(

I think bungie should think before they make stupid updates like this...

  • 09.23.2008 3:20 PM PDT

I love how there are 4 people on MyGamercard.net who have ALL 1750 GS. They even have the special 0GS ones, like the one where you have to enter a playist w/ 7 EXP on the 7th of the month. I smell hax. Hopefully they'll feel the banhammer soon enough

I'm Watching You

I have heard rumor that we might be getting 7 new maps for free. Is this the update that is going to change Halo 3 Custom Games and Matchmaking forever? Is this true?

  • 09.23.2008 3:35 PM PDT

What is defeat? Nothing but education; nothing but the first steps to something better.

Get the blam out of here you dang halo bashing update haters.....funny how people get pissed off....for the dumbest reasons.....go play call of duty where anybody a noob and skilled player can become a general as well.....

Great update......i think the playlist rankings are great......

Bungie, bungie,....bungie..

This new update is somewhat disappointing. yeah - you added some new achievments, but we can't even get most of them because you haven't given us the new maps!!, why would you do that? Just trying to keep us on a leash so we come back for more i guess...i feel used :(

Also, while i was playing today, the lag is just as bad as its always has been (it really suks)
and i found the skill level between the teams i was playing is much worse than before (hopefully you can fix the kinks!)

And last..
The new setup for rankings is...well....dumb.
Because you have implemented it now, and not from the beginning, it cannot reflect true ranking!! i dont get it!!!

So..
1. fix the f'n lag!
2. correct balanced matchmaking! (it really isn't better, i'm sorry.)
3. Be done with this style of rankings, its not cool, it doesn't truely reflect rankings.

ok thats my piece, embrace what i say as i will deal with the critisism im about to recieve....

  • 09.23.2008 3:44 PM PDT

WHAT IS THIS PAYOFF OF WHICH YOU SPEAK?! lol seriously though its driving me crazy! free maps? promotion? money? recon (yeah right haha)? but things like this drive me nuts! and i MUST know about these new maps. i was looking through the new achievements and i was like what is citadel and longshore?! i thought they were new variants (like epilougue) but i saw assembly was like hold up a second! please release information! im going to die!

EDIT: I didnt die because i saw skulls for the the new maps! I want those skulls do those have special powers too? MUST KNOW! Im hyper today....

So bungie please tell us why you couldn't put the bot update in? It would be awsome to have and I think everyone would agree with me.


By the way .. really cool update but im sure the bots would make it better.

Bots would also get people to stop modding. They would have no need to lag everynes gameplay and they wouldnt have an unfair advantage over us in making maps and stuff like that.


All people who agree with me , copy and paste.


Battle rifle Orange firebomb Trigger finger Sniper rifle

What do all of the capital letters spell??? BOTS


AI Bots should be in Halo 3. It will make us all happy. Please put them in.
