Were it so easy.

Wow, I'm amazed Bungie even tries to please this community. Honestly, when half of us don't even understand the humor or the clues why even bother. Oh, I forgot ,thier own enjoyment.(sarcasm) I really hope the fan boys can come up with some well thought out questions next week.

Thanks for the update guys, you did the best you could with the material available.

Just in case you didn't know. I, along with many other community members, would REALLY like to see some more mythic action.

God, Bungie, you guys are such teases! Ah well, good update. I severely doubted anything really substantial would be released, and I was sadly right. So, I guess the last sentance pretty much confirms the maps will be reaveled on tuesdays? K. Have a happy weekend (I know I will, todays my birthday, and I have monday + tuesday off)!

What do you play when you're not doing something Halo-Related? Does anyone on Bungie plan on getting GoW2 or CoD:WaW, or is that banned at Bungie?


You'll be shot on site if you talk about GOW at bungie
So that explains the bullet in my foot...

When Sandbox and Orbital peak out from behind the curtains, it's pretty likely that day won't be a Friday. Is it a wednesday? Halo CE anniversary baby!

Working underneath him? Will we be fighting through sewers of some sort in H3 Recon at some point?

Ph-Ph-Ph-Ph-Phail. Innapropriate spelling FTW! Seriously, though, you'd have to force me to not buy a Bungie game. A Halo Bungie game no less.

Frage (question)

Was the holdout on a predictable map reveal (given that microsoft just announced the first stage of the mythic map pack) in any way related to Cliffy B's pony adventure...I mean GOW 2's release.

Will is everything.

Ah, the nice little, warm, glowing, piece of info that is the Bungie Weekly Update. Unfortunately it was pretty predictable what the community questions would be. Mythic Map Pack craziness aside, it's still always nice to get a peek at what's going on.

On the topic of other games, would it be possibe to get some Bungie employee opinions on this year's biggest games? I think I'd really like to read about what Carney, J. Jones, Luke, Shiska, and other employess/overlords are playing and what they believe works and doesn't as far as gameplay mechanics go. Maybe that could be considered for a future update, who knows? It would most likely be an interesting read.

  • 11.07.2008 5:25 PM PDT

umm ok.. so what was the update? All i saw was stupid questions...

There are plenty of things to say, but which one is right?

Thanks for clearing that Halo Wars, Mythic pask info.

Well maybe you can redeem this Friday with a good question? Namely this one here about the NXE and Halo 3

TonyTheTiger831 asks: I was playing Fall Out 3 and instantly thought of Shiska when I read the name Shishkebab. Hows about we get a new nick name for Shiska which would be Shishkebab? It's not quite the banhammer but it sure has that amazing feel to it when you strike someone with it ^_^

I asked Shishka about this over Instant Messenger:

(6:02:57 PM) Shishka: HOLY CRAP YOU ARE SO ORIGINAL. NO ONE, AND I MEAN NO ONE HAS MADE THIS JOKE BEFORE
(6:02:58 PM) lukems: how about, “that's what she said."
(6:03:01 PM) Shishka: CONGRATULATIONS, YOU GET RECON
(6:03:04 PM) Shishka: IN FACT, YOU GET EVERYONE'S RECON
(6:03:14 PM) Shishka: WE'RE TAKING RECON FROM EVERY PERSON WITH RECON, AND GIVING IT TO YOU
(6:02:58 PM) lukems: I already have Recon :(


ROFL.

Another question...What happened to all my old posts. I no longer have any records in my profile of any activity beyond the question I asked in the link? Ive posted here many times...Did I do something wrong? Why have my past posts been purged?:(

Good Update.

  • 11.07.2008 5:32 PM PDT

I wish my question would have been answered, but great update anyway.

A company nurse could've helped prevent Luke's carpal tunnel sundrome. Yet another reason why Bungie needs to look into hiring a company nurse...

It almost hurt my feelings to read that one. Might ease up a bit on the sarcasm for the next one? Almost makes it a chore to read. Maybe I'm just a big softy.

  • 11.07.2008 5:36 PM PDT

Odmichael asks: I remember one Q&A we got a sketch of Assembly. Can you please give us a sketch of one of the other Mythic Maps?

I’m artistically tapped out right now. Plus, I have carpal tunnel.

Then why are you typing?

  • 11.07.2008 5:39 PM PDT

I hope that one of the Mythic Maps peak there head out next week.
