Look at what I found.

I was just now reading Time magazine because it has an article about xbox 360 when it talks about Halo 3.

"The next version of Halo will not, repeat not, be ready in time for the launch of Xbox 360. 'It's perfect,' Gates says, radiant with bloodlust. 'The day Sony launches [the new Playstation], and they walk right into Halo 3.'"

Time Magazine May 23,2005 Page.49 Last Paragraph. If you dont believe check it out.

Actually, I agree with Lanass's method of stopping quitters. No rank is lost, but they can't get back on live for a while,either.


Oh....and....real marco? You are quite annoying. Do you really think Frankie's gonna listen to you or give a damn what you say if you have a flaming post that's half a page long, all in capitals, and repeats the same thing over and over?

You only need to say something ONCE to make a point. Don't insult the intelligence of Bungie and everyone else on this site by making posts like that.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
See he haves fun when he plays you guys who do complain should just play f.ucking GTA (The dummest game of the year) Dont get me wrong GTA is okay it's just the same thing over and over again and wow you get to ride BIKES!!!

That's not boosting, boosting is what all the people at the top of the leaderboards did before the stats reset where they do weird crap late at night and their "games played" showed that they had been beating the same douches 1 to 0 or -1 for like 234324 games.... you're just playing with your friends but lots of people call it "boosting" because they're ignorant.

Check out my grou ya'll.

I dont know about the rest of the world, but i personally love a good glitching custom game. Don't get me wrong, i would never glitch or cheat in Matchmaking, but it's fun to bring my friends together and explore the glitches in your game. Is it possible to fix glitches in Matchmaking but not custom games?

Has a 100 rank system been considered, instead of 50? There are already people breaching level 40!

This really doesn't have anything to do with the update but how cool would it be to rerelease Halo CE with live enabled at the Xbox 360 launch. that would be so cool and it would make Halo the only game to launch 2 consoles. now get to work on that bungie. also, I have played many FPS and none of them has that special something that Halo has. So don't change to much. what u have really works well.

Hey what's up, i just wanted to ask about something that happened to me twice, i wasnt playing on x box live, but in split screen, i just fell off from my warthog at zanzibar in the ramp where the sniper is, and suddenly i died, and it wasn't a suicide, but at the screen it says "you were killed by the guardians", so i just want to know who are these guardians.

Check out my one handed montage, its legendary!
and my new trailer for my upcoming H3 Tage
add me on myspaceee Myspace

I've been thinking of ways to keep people from quitting during matches but there isn't one, but instead why not put the force even teams option on in all team games? This would ensure that when two of my teammates either lag out or quit in team slayer It won't be a four on two match. If I understand correctly with force even teams on a player that dies sit out until another dies. And since when your sitting out the camera follows both your enemies and team mates the team with more people will still have an advantage just not as big as one whole extra player. And one more thing, in big team battle could you do something so these 13 players games don't go on. 13 DOESN'T DIVIDE EVENLY! That means that one team outnumbers the other. I've been on the outnumbered team and oncce people realize that our team is down a player, they quit!

Hey, this also happened to me twice, but I actually was playin on xbox live, once it was at beaver creek, I went to get the rockets, and when I dropped I suddenly found myslef lying death in the river, and a message appeared and it said "You were killed by the guardians", and also this once at midship I was at the platform where you get the sword and I dropped and got killed without getting shot or anything, and the same message appeared "you were killed by the guardians" I mean , what happens when this occurrs?

so wat exactly is boosting? this is the first time i heard of it and it wasnt explained very well...can u tell me?

  • 05.22.2005 1:55 PM PDT

If there is any power to be found, it's within yourself, not your weapon.

I don't know how Frankie determines which questions to answer, and where he looks for them, but I can only hope he addresses one of the three questions listed here:

1. Would it be possible to make taunts, dances, and poses available for use with the White button? It's not getting used, a bunch of funny moves would be a great way to populate it.

2. Would it be possible to create an option that allows the Halo 2 soundtrack to play during multi-player/Xbox Live matches? That would be so sweet especially for someone who has disabled voice communication. It would be pretty easy to implement, no? Just assign one song per map and give the option to turn it off or on.

3. Would it be possible to mix up the weapon layout during CTF games on Ascension? It's a little unfair how the offense team starts with access to a sniper rifle, rocket launcher, and shotgun, and the other sniper rifle is in plain view of the first.

Halo 2 is by far the best game I have ever played...But then there came bridgers and modders.

I think there should be a double team slayer and double team skirmish for matchmaking. I enjoy the double team slayer but I truly dislike the double team skirmish games. I think it would be a good idea to do this for the next auto update.

Oh, there is one more thing I would like to address. There is a way in clan matched slayer games to cheat a win. I would type it here, but I won't. Because then, of course, everyone would start to do it. But I don't know where I should address these issues. Frankie or somebody please tell me where I can send messages that won't be read by anybody but Bungie. Thank you.

The thing I don't get is you guys are banning people for talking trash. I find that ironic because when xbox live started out using the headset to trash talk was their whole marketing ploy. Now you get banned if you do it. That seems very hypocritical. If you ask me trash talking makes the games more fun and competitive. It instills a motivation to play better and make the other player (the one who is talking trash) to shut up. Get back to me on this.
