I am going to lube your butt hole with nacho cheese and -blam!- you with a crowbar.

I think it will be a fun adventure trying to get recon.

With Halo: Reach on the horizon, I don't see any reason to keep it so 'exclusive'.

Yea, Halo: Reach is probably going to have new armour (including recon) anyway. That is, if it is the "Halo 4" everyone's ben waiting for. To me it just looks like a Halo 1 remake.

Of course. Because Halo 1 took place on Reach, and you played a team of spartans, not MC.

I wish it would stay exclusive, so the more motivated people (as in not the people who just sit around crying that they cant get it free instead of working for it) would make good map variants, videos, and screenshots in their efforts to get recon. Now that they have nothing to work for, lots of mapmakers wont be making any.

no halo reach is before halo 1 remeber he said we got SPARTANS not a spartan so it would be more like a halo wars first person game, plus reach was the fall of the spartans(only 4 were left),i think it was john(chief),kelly and kurt and some1 else

He brings up an excellent point.
With H:R on the way, there will probably armor DLC.

I think Bungie should be doing contests because it will keep players more active in it. The contests are also fun.

we have waited 2-3 years for it we deserve it by now.

Exactly. Plus there will still be some people who aren't able to get the vidmaster achievements. So Recon won't be as exclusive, but still kind of exclusive. I like the armor myself not just because of how rare it is so I will probably wear it until it becomes like hayabusa and everyone has it....

If you're doing that stuff to get Recon, then you're missing the point. Just have fun people! Don't make maps and screenshots for Recon. Do it for the lulz and good times! Cheers

Wow final hazard

People like to make maps jsut for fun not just to get recon. Most people play the game for fun not just to unlock everything.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

It's still fun working for it :)

Yeah or at least make the new vidmasters REALLY hard to keep it exclusive so we won't have another Hayabusa on our hands.

  • 06.21.2009 2:04 AM PDT

Lolular!

Kyletacular-Killtacular-get it?

I prefer the old method, having it after getting vidmaster would mean it would lose its aura.

Theres a huge flaw in that because it doesn't revolve around what he wants, it's what other people want. If you all wear recon in means you can't tell the difference between those who did the achievements and those awarded it by Bungie.
