"Seems to me you should spend less time on that article and more time working on that novel you've been working on!!!"

Man, grifball weekends use to be fun when people were just hearing about it, and the games were fair, every game full of fun and laughter and excited shouting. Now its just like the rest of halo, with people playing who probably practice it on their own time and then go in with friends and destroy. Leave it to competitive people to ruin another great fun gametype. I got on today, had to sit through a game where four people continuously bashed me and my friends for no reason, saying all sorts of really immature rude things. And maybe its just connection, but does anyone else ever find themselves standing 10 feet away from a guy, and you swing your hammer, and it does nothing, but they, still standing at same distance, swing their hammer and kill you? Or the "I'm five feet from the goal, in the air even, but heck lets just give the team a point anyway since they are so close to it, yet I've been stepping on that plate, ball in hand, like Godzilla steps on Tokyo, and nothing happens. I'm not getting mad at Bungie, I love halo, but man I wish those sorts of things were not so common in an online game. My router is only a few feet away, so I just can't see how there can be any interference. Phwew, just had to let off some steam. Perhaps someone else shares my thoughts on the matter and knows my pain.

Credit where credit is due: This is lukem's article, I just posted it for him since he's still writing haiku while sitting under the sakura trees hoping to meet the girl he promised he'd marry when they were children and he had to move away to be a journalist.

it is pretty obvious.Remember the halo 2 map pack?maybe that will clear it up otherwise you need to goto school.

  • 10.17.2008 7:23 AM PDT

How will this work??

I mean how will it load??

Do we put in halo 3 then recon or do we use the recon disk like in sims etc??

  • 10.17.2008 7:26 AM PDT

ok quick question. so if this game actually takes place during halo 2 and then i guess into halo 3 why dont you just call it halo: recon or halo 2: recon. not saying that i dont like the idea of the new game. im am totally psyched for its release in a year. just saying that i htink that Halo: Recon would make more sense.

  • 10.17.2008 12:55 PM PDT

Sorry about bodering you but I still have a few Questions

1. Will halo 3:Recon be a disk wich will be the exact same as halo3 except with some added fetures like the mythic maps?
2. I have heard many rumours that people will be able to buy recon over the maketplace. I would like to know if this is true or wether it is just some asumption that some people have made?
3. does bujie know a specific date for when halo3:Recon will be released,
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter

Yours faithfully

I like to say after much thought, what a waste of time and money Halo Recon seems to be.

Using the same engine, lame. No new weapons. Weak. And the same multiplayer.Lazy.

Totally weak,lame and lazy

Now I know everyone here kisses you booty but I feel this needs to be said..

So stop the production and concentrate on a totally new IP.

And fix forge to lock items and predetermined angles, shift keys Bungie, shift keys !!!

  • 10.17.2008 6:50 PM PDT

So with Halo 3: Recon coming out with its multiplayer experience as an add-on to Halo 3, will the Mythic Maps be included with this game?

So if I buy Halo 3: Recon do I get the Mythic maps as well? like with the Halo 2 map pack? where you download them off the disc onto your xbox?

Or will they be seperate? I just really dont want to buy the maps twice...

The Fallen Shall be Forever Remembered as the Emporers Finest-----I learned that 92% of teenagers have turned to rap. If your one of the 8% that still listens to real music put this in your sig.

Will Halo 3 recon have a Co-Op mode?

If Halo 3 Recon is an extension of Halo 3, will there be things that we can only do on the Halo 3 disk, or will the Halo 3 Recon have everything a Halo 3 disk has, and then an extension?

UHMM uh ha uhm 360!!!

The new chapter in the Halo universe includes the following:

All-new campaign content: The Halo 3: Recon campaign is an intriguing side story that takes place during the terrifying events leading up to the Master Chiefs return to New Mombasa in Halo 3. Experience the fate of Earth from the brand-new perspective of a special forces ODST (Orbital Drop Shock Trooper), adding a unique outlook and new gameplay elements to the events that unfold in the trilogys finale. While the feel of this new chapter greatly resembles that of previous Halo experiences, Halo 3: Recon will require you to employ more elements of stealth and cunning than ever before.

Bungie made halo 1,2, and 3. They think they diserve a reward for that. if u made somthing that big would you want to have somthing special for you and no 1 else. Theyre reward is recon armour. but halo 3 recon the game says recon because they are going to go get someone recon like gohst recon recon recon recon recon

I think that the marine, brute, jackal, and grunts should be playable in multiplayer, and the jackal shield, jet pack, and more vehicles should be added as well because alot of people like to have more choices when we play online.
