Oh, God, I was waiting for it this week, and I usually don't wait for these Updates. Oh well... Is next week going to address dates of maps? It sounded like it was, until you said "we can't say when and how the maps will come out".

Anyway, that was some gross Mister Chief.

PS woohoo! My post is on the same as Frankie's!!!!!!111!!1 Yeah!

We can't talk about how and when the new maps will be released, we'll leave that to the smart folks who actually do all the logistical work for this stuff – marketing and PR

Please tell the PR and marketing division at Microsoft to stop dicking around. If you have completed content, then release it.

Chaos Theory is comming out very soon and the demo is spectacular. Do I like it more than Halo 2? No. Will I play it over Halo 2? Yes. Why? Because it's something new.

Perhaps there will be an expansion pack AND it will be available over Xbox Live? Or perhaps in the disc with OXM? Just thinking out loud.

did they say anything about fixing dummying? and it said there making standby less worth it, but is it secondary or primary?

thanks for clearing up the fact that its not RS flying, even though i consider the warthog method to be more humerous than for explorational/cheating purposes

kinda dissapointing though that all the questions people from the forums asked were kinda worthless except for the first one

Oh well better than last weeks...

If you think about it, people are still going to cheat even though its less rewarding, because it is still a little rewarding to them! None of the cheaters will stop cheating!

i think they need to fix it on foundation where u can throw the bomb ontop of the ramp around the outside of the level(the top where u cant get on because of the invisible roof and wall), twice i have played team games and had the other team get a score, and throw it up there, staying around so the bomb doesnt respawn, and if it does, throw it back up, once, someone did it at the start, no one scored, he thought it up and laughed, i think he was on red, knowing about the red team wins tied games glitch, even red team was pi**ed, but we turned it into a team slayer and had funny killing each other

i agree, he things there worthless because they want to hear "3 new maps, each with a new weapon and a secret, 2 new game mode's added to optimatch, all cheats fixed, and we gave u all the XP u will never need" but thats never gonna happen, there not worthless, they give just enjoy info to get u thinking and hoping, and know what is going on, but not enough to ruin the surprize

I look forword to the news of the maps, but I MAD about them removing the sword cancel and launch tricks. I NEVER saw anyone abuse these tricks. They were only used in glitch games. You could have at least just took it off of ranked games not all games. This only makes me hate Bungie even more. The first, is the time we have to wait for maps. the good thing is we will find a way around getting around in glitch games, and then Bungie will just ruin that for us to by taking that away. Instead of taking stuff away, why not add to it? Like the maps we have been waiting months to come out.

It's about time, i've quit playing so much cause of all the friggin cheaters. I was beginning to think you guys didn't care. Just some food for thought... after the new updates what do you say you guys do something about the cheaters rankings. i know you can't kick em all off LIVE but at least don't let them keep their ranks. i mean we all know they don't deserve to stay at [50]. if all else fails, renew everybody's ranks... i'd be happy to start from scratch.

thinking and hoping we can tell you soon we can tell you soon we can tell you soon next week is not getting me thinking and hoping that just gets me annoyed how aobut telling me the date 1 or 2 new things and leaving it at that i'd be happy and hoping and thinking about what was gonna be on it not we can tell u soon or for some "stupid reason" we cant tell you now but next week i meen why seriusly why wait just tell us date 1 or 2 cool things and i'tll be fine will get all excited and well still have big secrets etc

that would be like somebody commign up to me and asking what is the answer ot X problem and me saying i cant tell u now but i can later

next time they ask i can tell you soon

next time they ask i can tell you soon

next time they ask i can tell you soon

next time they ask i can tell you tomorow

when they ask why *no response*

We can't talk about how and when the new maps will be released, we'll leave that to the smart folks who actually do all the logistical work for this stuff – marketing and PR, but we can tell you this much - our entire plan is designed to make new content available for everybody, those with Xbox Live and those without Xbox Live. We hope in the end, everyone will be satisfied.

Well, I've come to the conclusion that DLC is going to come by way of a disk. Since your wanting to get the non-live auidence as well, the only way to do that is by a disk.

Last time I checked, disks cost money, which means we have to PAY for this new crap. I thought that selling 6.6 million units would be enough to satisfy your greedy little wallet, but I guessed wrong.

Guess I'll have to wait till next week, and to tell you the truth, I'm not looking forward to this major announcement.

Rock on the Weekly updates!! At least now we have some idea of timeframe... I can't wait to see / learn new maps... Some current tactics are getting a bit crazy on these ones...

(but i guess half of these will be fixed with the patches)

One quick Q though, does a poor connection essentially STANDBY the sesion for a player? And does it do it for the whole team if your hosting???
