Your fixing all these weapon balance issues but haven't even touched the NEEDLER its the most original weapon and has pretty much no purpose. It's been forgotten and now with greanedes increased there is nearly no reason at all for using needlers.

Thank You so much Bungie for you have done! I'm very excited about the updates and resetting of the boards.

If you've wondered why I haven't played any Halo 2 games go look up the old version of my GT.

does that mean that clans will be reset to? for instance deleting every clan name and rankings?

And lo, we finally give up a date for the autoupdate that will kill cheating, fix glitches and do some cool stuff you totally didn't expect. Read this update to have your expectations rocked hard.
The update looks awesome and all... but I waited a week for info on the maps.

Denny Run Operation = DRO!

Frankie,

I've been wondering for a long time will bungie be fixing the in-game status of friends playing online? For example right now, if you go to your live friends list, and click on a player, it shows you one of 2 things, either A. score 0 to 0, or B. in matchmaking X# minutes.

What I expected to see there was either a screen where when you press A it changes between the score and time, or shows time left, or in match 3 of 4, or that kind of information so when you start playing, you can judge whether you can get a quick head to head game in or not. If you can't have it so when you press a button to have the information change, at least have the information rotate on a 3-5 second timer.

Thanks,

DRO4LIFE

i find that reseting the stats is complete bull-blam!-, what about those who worked hard to get our levels to get up to where it is now? I just got my team slayer up to 12 and iw as all happy, then i come onlike and read this. ALL THIS WORK FOR NOTHING?!?! its so -blam!-, not only will we now be getting matched up with any people who are levels 1 - 50, people who play this game for awhile are throwing all they worked for down the drain. WTF?!!?

I am disappointed not to see that the energy sword will be toned down in multiplayer. I think it simply needs "ammo" like it does in single player. It is so irritating when a team wins just because they got the sword first and got all the wussy kills. Yeah...

Yeah, great update and all, but why the resetting of peoples ranks who got them legit? My friend has played 1745 games of team slayer, and has won 900+, making him level 22. He has clearly put a lot of work into it, and you're just going to reset it? I suppose its the only way, but it still makes me so mad at those cheaters...

.....I was kind of hoping for any map info whatsoever, but only because bungie said there would be some last week. But I guess it's nice to know bungie's taking out some really fun glitches and resetting the levels. Does anyone realize when everyone starts out at level 1 level 11 people for example will go up against level 30 people and wont be able to level up till the better people do.

Finally I can play matchmaking with out wanting to jump into my modem and coming out on the DUMB ACE that thinks hes good because he is able to push the stand by button and score adgainst a team of defenceless players that would tear them apart if they werent. ThX You Bungie! My Irish rage can rest easy once the AU is out.

Peace... and thx again!

Frankie Rocks!

oh bungie

i love halo 2, so much

now, you decide to clear the ranks. are you guys stupid? I worked hard to get my level 20 in Team Slayer, now you decide to take it from me. geez.

screw you then. DONT CLEAR THE RANKS!


well if you worked so hard at getting it then you must be good to deserve a rank like that... so do it again how hard is it... well not 4 u i guess... look at it this way you will get to play with noobs tell level 9 or 10 then you might have to try. eveyone will get back to the rank there supose to be... plus if you cant get it back then you shoudnt be a 20

finally, im so glad you fixed that stupid thing where if you shoot a person in a gun turret, in the head, he doesn't die. the snipers have quickly became my favorite weapons, but when i would shoot people in trrets, they would sometimes not even be affected. thanks s lot fo fixing that.

Thank god for stats reset (got to legit 25)! Now all you wanks who standbyed so many games... haha :) My ruined Played/Win ratio hell yeah :). And this banning system (for matchmaking - perfect idea if I understood it right). Dunno what to think about that update 1.1 - couldn't you guys rls a online demo with 2-3maps and then test it and save the trouble (well hell we need ppl saying the old/new one is better ;)) - now changing the whole game almost in MP... dunno but going near HALO1 sounds good. Man... it's gonna be great to play matchmaking again :) No more waiting hours for host just to make sure the other team won't stanby you. I hope I won't get to excited about this cause this sounds to good to be true ;P
Anywaz bungie: good update.

I want those -blam!-s who get bungie.net behind their gamertags to be dishonoured of it. Most don't deserve it, they only want it as a sorta fashion statement. Most the bastards don't deserve it! They join for the damke of it! iv been here about 1 and a half years, who deserves it more, us (the good folk and faithful soldiers at bungie) or the runty little -blam!-s out there?


Grow up. I've been here for 3 1/2 years and could call out a bunch of people who have been here longer, but it doesn't matter. If you want to be elitist, go play some other game. They're a part of the community just like the rest of us.
