@ voe_guy

Listen kid and all you H3 players who play this game JUST for fun. I also like to play this game competitively and I dont have to be good at it to like it, Im just saying that everybody had high hopes for this AU2 update including myself, but it was just improving the lobby go faster/add new achievements/add new ranking system. So it was only an ADD-ON update wich hurts the people who like to play this game competitively not only just for fun. I was expecting improving the BR (at least getting the randomness away - quote lukems 'randomness isnt good for any competitive game' in bungie update about the much more broken melee system before AU1), more costums options and more forge options. At least improving current forge system (wich will be happening in H3:recon, but whatever).

The Double reloading glitch is when you press the reload buttong on youre controller, the game will reload your weapon with obviously new ammo, but after the reloading is done (like rockets or sniper bullets), the ammo will dissapear and the game or you will have to reload again(!). I had it happening TWICE in one mlg game and it made me miss my triple even overkills with the sniper or rockets doesnt matter. Its just flat out annoying and its not even fixed after one wholy -blam!-IN year.

I also forgot to say bullets dropping is the most annoying problem in this game. We all know lag, but bullets dropping on LAN is just sad and I dont care how many time bungie put into this game, it has so much flaws it makes me so SICK. I see sniper bullets going through heads on LAN. Also, I dont know why, but these problems are now happening a lot since the AU2. The sword is also acting strange...

After 5000+ games, I had enough. And this time, I mean it.

Gow2/Fallout 3, here I come!

Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphors have two parts : form and interpretation; of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom being the briocoleus, the mason.

holy ha.
Who is the guy shopped into the Owlman ?
Looks like Sylar, friggin Sylar works for the Bungie ?

Indeed, I share your joy and Standoff Heavy needed to be retired, ridiculously unbalanced.

  • 10.24.2008 4:23 PM PDT

dont mess with the monkey"s or POO will be flung!

ok ive seen those pics, not sure what every one is so hyped over this update for? nothing really great about it. and what did we really learn about recon? and as far as the sniper, thats just gonna confuse alot of people?

  • 10.24.2008 4:24 PM PDT

You know, I'm starting to figure out why that was supposed to be a bad idea.

Permanent Shoty Snipes? Ive seen heaven.

I cant believe your taking out standoff Heavy. For some teams out there, this is their FAVORITE gametype/playlist combo. With the right teamwork you can make magic on this map. Please please please reconsider this bungie. Maybe you could just remove a few things so its not that overwhelming ? A laser or 2, maybe even the banshee, but please there has to be an alternate to just removing it completely. Thanks guyss...

I tried to sign my signature here but the pen busted off in my screen.
:(

Thank you SO MUCH for moving sniper games to Hardcore! Not only is this great for players who LOVE the sniper games but it's also a relief for players like myself who hate the sniper games. Finally, I can play Social and Ranked without the snipes. Thank you! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Bungie rules!

What about Haunted Manor in Ranked Living Dead?

  • 10.24.2008 4:27 PM PDT

I don't want random messages (ie, Join my group, etc). I have begun blocking solicitations.

Awesome. No more snipers mucking up Social (and Team) Slayer.

  • 10.24.2008 4:28 PM PDT

Rebellion in small things to let the world know I haven't surrendered.

It's good that there is finally a Team Snipers playlist, so everybody can shutup about it. But I think it should've stayed in the other slayer playlists, just with a very reduced weighting.Or maybe just in the Social playlist. It was a fun change.

And yay for Lithuanians from Michigan! My family has a Lithuanian heritage, but I live in West Michigan, not Northern Michigan. But that's still pretty cool.

Silly rabbit, don't know? Bungie doesn't listen to half the -blam!- you want! They just do what they want!

Lukems, will you be -blam!- and ignore these questions like the way the presidential candidates ignore the questions asked to them, or are YOU FIXING THE PROBLEMS AS WE SPEAK! Also, I am having a LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE THEATER LOBBY. I can't watch movies with friends and its pissing me off. Please at least begin fixing these issues. Thanks, and I wouldn't even mind getting banned from Bdotnet for writing in all caps if THIS CAUGHT YOUR ATTENTION!

  • 10.24.2008 4:37 PM PDT

haha i almost thought you were serious with the sniper rifle bullet crap. lol i almost had a complete meltdown. Im very excited for the snipers hopper, thank you Bungie for putting that in! I know a lot of friends and I are going to give that playlist a great welcome.

The pictures were amazing, defiantly gonna have to spend some more time in the files area. Great update, seems like you guys are enjoying yourselves this week. Good, keep happy because you always do your best work when your happy.

I miss playing Halo with my friends.

I Less than 3 this weekends ball... :D

"Go then. There are other worlds than these."

Thank God for permanent snipers playlist. Now all "those people" can go "do their thing" "way over there."

Now all we need is a separate forum for discussion related to the snipers playlist and I will never have to hear about it again.

I like to be in Bungie Favorites so i can see what's the big done in Bungie Favorites.
