I like action sack, but the loss of objective kills me inside. I'm going to get a 50 before June in it, just to show my love for it.

Congratulations on the people that won the contest.

On a side note...holy crap action sack batman!!! I was actually just thinking about it today. And that i missed it.

Whats with the removal of Team Objective? I liked it better than TS, personally, but I know it didn't get many players. Where do we go for Ranked Objective now, Squad Battle?

And Actionsack sounds pretty fun.

So you've tracked me down...

Be sure to check out my Youtube profile for all of my videos.

Test playing that Run For Cover Gametype was pretty fun. I never expected it to be in matchmaking but i will certainly look forward to it along with the other CRAZY CRAZY gametypes.

It was a nice update this week, i look forward to the June Playlist changes!

Go Rams and Missouri!

Team Objective is being retired? That's because you idiots decided to make it Flag gametypes only, so people stopped playing!

  • 05.22.2009 4:22 PM PDT

oh man, Action Sack.....good times will be had. This is probably coming at just the right time since Team Mythic is getting retired. It is basically all I play, but Action Sack....oh goodness Action Sack.

*thats what she said?*

I stopped reading after Action Sack. I love that gametype! Perfect for a Saturday night with a 30 pack LoL. Now, if we can get em to bring back Rumble Armory, all will be awesomz.

"Dear Bungie.net, we regret being stubborn bastards, we regret coming to this forum, and we most definitely regret that Darth Kooky blew up our raggedy-ass opinion!"

I am so glad I am not on the list. I have been banned for boosting twice (1st time in Grifball and I wasn't even told what I was doing until after being banned, 2nd time I did it to help friends with their achievables...Bleep Bloop). I never really planned on entering a contest for Recon, I want to unlock it. Thanks Bungie, and no I'm not going to cheat any more.

Looking forward to Action Sack!!

From update:
Moar Recon

Since last week's winners have already been notified and are already rocking their awesome new armor, we figured the rest of you will want to know about this weekend's screenshot competition. Well, you'll just have to stop back tomorrow. As has become the ritual, we'll fill you in with all the information you'll need to know via our Bungie.net frontpage. Get your F5ing finger ready.

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.

***JUMP ACTIVATION INITIATION START***

39th.

I salute you Bungie for not listing everyone/

Sweet! Hooray for Action Sack!

But really, why is Cubed even getting a second chance? I mean, maybe it will be better without an over shield spawning every 25 seconds, but I think it will continue to reek of "not fun"...

Oh well, can't wait for some ODST updates...

  • 05.22.2009 4:26 PM PDT

well that's cool. mythic for team slayer.. i still have yet to see sandbox maps other than tundra and cubed. i like em both. i think tundra would be kind of a cool team slayer map as well.. thnx bungie

Action Sack sounds scary.

It's not scary at all. It's more like someone thrust their hand deep into the chapped recesses of a magical Halo 2 "Bag of Holding" and pulled out a big ol' steaming pile o' Aackshunnn!

Team Action Sack FTW... RIP Objective.... *crying face*

  • 05.22.2009 4:28 PM PDT

why would Team Objective be retired? I was hoping on getting a 50 in it eventually, so I guess I'll have to get itwithin the next few days. now I'm PO'ed.

Can't wait for Action Sack, even with the ...off-color double entendre. You know what, it actually makes it even more exciting.

You might say it makes action in my sack.

I'm here 'till Tuesday. Tip your bartender.

  • 05.22.2009 4:30 PM PDT

OMG OMG OMG

The Sack is back. Can't wait!

Now that team objective is retired can we get a ranked team flag play list.

Fac Fortia Et Patere

Nice to finally see Team Actionsack come back, though, no Bungie made Tower of Power type gametype? Oh well. Though, at least Objective is going to be somewhat replaced with Social Team DLc. Oh, and thank god Cubed is being fixed.

For everything else, I've loved the Bungie Pro Rendering. Hopefully when it's fully public and ready to go, the wait times won't be too much more than what they are now.

Can't wait to see whatever you guys have at E3, even if it's a countdown to a countdown of a countdown for something at E3 2010.
