People are quick to assume 4/09/09 is the release date...


Yeah that's what I thought at first but then remembered the American date format...

Yep, its not even a tuesday.
Unless microsoft chose to release mythic on they're on terms, its probably not the release.

I hope that 4/9/09 is the release date for the release date of Halo 3 ODST

i don't like this new banhammer-addition. i've recently adapted the habit of quitting whenever i get a gametype i don't like... and this is OFTEN.

seriously bungie, i love your game and all - but we have to spawn with BR's.

if i get team slayer, and i'm not in a party with sensitive friends who think ranks are the most important thing in the world - i QUIT.

spawning with assault rifle makes me depressed, and as soon as one of the teams get BR-control the game is over.

there's nothing more annoying than staring at a triple kill without a proper rifle - sorry to break it to you but your game really suck sometimes.

FIRST!
aw -blam!-.....
Now that thats out of the way.....
Well, if the 4/9/09 thing is true, then I'm kind sad, I was hoping it would be here before my B-day (3/30)

  • 03.21.2009 8:01 PM PDT

04/09/09

well obviously its their phone number....

4/09/09? Well uh..if it isn't the map pack, then at least something good will be released.

And lol at today, I caught a booster (No More Nerd) red handed, and he is trying to tell me Microsoft will not ban him because this newest banhammer update got overruled by an "excutive".

It's amazing, the size of some people's ego.

If you wish to discuss your map in regards to Blueprint, Fonzes Thread Testers, Halo Legacy, The T00L B0X, or Reach Customs Community message me here on Bungie.net. DO NOT send me a message on Xbox live unless I have arranged it with you already.

Banhammer change sounds good. Especially good to hear you can tell a drop from a quit. Keep up the good work Bungie!

Juicy update this week. It was almost orgasmic... well not really, but you get the point.

it makes sense that it would be, since they would be releasing it on thursday, coinciding with the double exp playlist, which would likely require mythic. i imagine that the halowars playlist would be removed, since you won't need to have bought halowarsLCE to play it anymore. it would probably boost sales since it was the DEXP day.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

No codes? Darn. (But not really since I was not around to see them anyway)

Finally a banhammer to get the negative EXP boosters... It was getting tiresome.

I am confused, I already have the myhtic map pack. But what if I win with a hunter screenshot? Would I simply end up with another code to do as I pleased with?

  • 03.22.2009 9:06 AM PDT

Has anyone else notice how short the Battle Riffle(br) is in the ODST soldiers hands...

Wow! Finally! [url= http://www.youfail.org]Here[/url] you go... I have to warn you that it isn't worth it. Such a failure this week. I would rather have not had an update at all.


NOTE TO ALL: MY PM INBOX IS BROKEN AND BUNGIE CANNOT FIX IT. SEND MESSAGES TO MY GT.

Or, Email me at gamefreek96@aim.com
^^^Jemima Got PWNED^^^

I is sad.

I remember hearing on an xbox marketplace video that the Mythic Map Pack would be out for DLC SOON after halo wars release and in my opinion SOON has come and gone.


I agree. i thought they said a while back that it would be weeks not months. 4/09/09 is what a month and a week and we are into the 4th week almost after they were released to the people who can afford to fork over $40 for $10 maps early. lame

i just have a question about the new banhammer update, how does it measure how many times you've quit out of games? does it total up all your quits that u already have or does it start after the banhammer has been updated when u start quitting?

  • 03.22.2009 12:30 PM PDT

i noticed that also the reason why it does look smaller is because when a spartan is holding the battle rifle it looks bigger in his hands just because the spartan is big, and it would look stupid if this massive spartan is holding a tiny gun lol, so the battle rifle in the ODST's hand has to look smaller or else it would look retarded for him to be holding an oversized rifle, its just one of those things that happens with certain characters and certain guns, for example the gravity hammer looks huge when a spartan is carrying it because it's supposed to be so massive, but when u see a brute holding it, the hammer looks perfectly fine because he's way bigger than a spartan, same goes with the spiker pistol and every gun in halo depending on characters

my guess is that everybody who already has the mythic map packs is exempt from winning the contests for the mythic map pack, because its not fair if someone who already has the mythic maps were to win as opposed to someone who doesnt have them, its designed for people who dont have the mythics, but i still wonder if bungie would award some kinda prize to someone who did get an awesome screen of the hunters who already has the mythic, does good work not have good rewards?
