Dear PadreRodrigo and fauxfate,

The I don't believe new updates were intended to please Monkeys and Wolves. Sorry. Try another forum board.

Thanks,

WOW! Hey everybody, look Damo_666 noticed TWO spelling mistakes! Funny you should say that Ajemsuhgao because as you are very big on making sure spelling etc is all good in this forum you should take a look at your caption at the bottom of each one of your posts........

Has anyone ever wondered why in the "Real Name" space in the settings does in (i believe this should say IT) say your name must be less than 65 characters and must contain on (i believe this shouldnt be here at all or at least say ONLY) letters, numbers, and spaces? Who the hell would have numbers in their name?

Isn't public humiliation great !?!

Hmm, let's see I made 2 mistakes because I typed that really fast at around 2 AM when I was tweaking my profile. Yeah, I'm just so humiliated over that...I'm gonna go cry in a corner. Dick.

Everyone just stop. Just stop. This was a great update. I cant wait till Monday. Only a week or so till new maps awsome. Go ahead and reset the stats. I dont care. Mine arnt very high anyway cause I stoped playing because of cheaters. At least I can actually play Halo 2 again. I'm syched.

I know people may be unhappy with stat reset and I understand why you might be, but just go with it. With the amount of cheaters the leader boards are surley corrupted. As well with the game changes, the game has a fresh new start. All I can say is just enjoy the game. I dont care about my stats I just love playing the game. People need to stop taking it so seriously and enjoy the game. That is what it is meant to be there for.

Sweet! Cheaters suck. I wish the AU would also institute a harsher penalty (other than just finishing last) for quitters... especially in team games where quitting harms your teammates who are left to fend for themselves down a man (or men). Quitters suck almost as much as cheaters -- SACK UP BEYOTCHES!!!

i wanna know more details about resetting the leaderboards. The way i hear it im not going to be playing matchmaking for the first couple weeks so i dont get my stats screwed up. I don't want to be playing against lvl 20's and 40's its just going to be a waste of my time. Anyways I want to know if there are going to be a way to make it fair.

I want to know if this autoupdate will fix the problem regarding being able to enter other friends pregame lobby's with the message coming up "Networking problems Please try Again in a few minutes. Sorry About That." Then kicking you to the menu. Thanx.

Bungie already said that that is the because the network types are different. You either have NTSC or PAL. When the two collide you get that message.

All of you who think that the new updates are horrible, have CLEARLY never played Halo:CE before. And you also suck. It's like the first Halo, except with better graphics and smoother gameplay! (Like how we all wanted it to be) Thank God for autoupdates


guys like PadreRodrigo are true gamers, the play the games for how they are, not how they wish they would be. Ive said this alot on this forum but people, just accept the game how it is. If you read the update, you would know that the rankings are being reset mostly so that the good players can rise throught the ranks faster. Most people read "rankings are being reset", crapped their pants, and started whining all over the forum. Just accept the game how it is and how it evolves and have fun.

Yeah its people like you who piss me off, i was ina team slayer game once, and this guy kept killing himself, we lost because of that, so they should make a way for us to kick or vote people out of the game when people do stupid things like that, and i have a question for bungie, can you guys bring back hang em high?

I could care less about the new maps. The cheat fixes is what I've been waiting for. And whats this I see? Grenades, melee, and various other balance changes? I've been assassinated and gone to heaven! Praise Bungie. This should feel more like the Halo I know and love. Sweet can o' beans.

And the stats being reset? Icing on the fricken cake! Now lets all see where we stand. Now let us play without the blue screen o' doom. Dear god, I'm a happy spartan.

And for those spamming 'MAPS MAPS MAPS'

Please calm down and read the previous updates. Its already been said, the maps come shortly AFTER the auto-update. This update was about the auto-update. They already gave the scoop on the maps. We know everything we could possibly want to know. Stop spamming the forums, stop looking silly.

Read the old update, its there. All of it. Everything you want to know about new maps. Its not coming in this autoupdate. As we knew before, the autoupdate would include cheat fixes and shortly after the first two new maps would be released (the new ladders for premium maps would also be coming, all the information is there and available. It even includes when the DVD will release, whats on the DVD, the price, and when all maps will become free and how the new ladders will be handled when the map becomes free - if you're curious and lazy, the premium ladder goes poof when the map becomes free). Everything you want to know is there. This update includes information about the autoupdate, the precursor update to the new maps. It has NOTHING to do with the map update, NOTTA, all that informations already been revealed. So go read it.

I'm utterly rediculously constipatedely happy about the cheat fixes, the balance changes, and the stat reset. I don't personally care about the new maps all that much, I think its neat and all, but THIS was the bread-and-butter I was waiting for. This is what counts for me. If you don't care about it, please, read the previous update regarding your beloved new maps. It has your milk and cheese, your weiner and bun, your mom and the mailman.
