Bungie, you know i love you guys for everything you could possibly do to make our experience in this community a great one. I noticed that you had to be one of the last players in the bungie vs. the world playlist, but if this is true then im kind of upset about why I didnt win recon armor. My bestfriend was in the matchmaking lobby when he screamed he had recon cause he was skimming through his armor, I played until the playlist said that ii could not play anymore, I thought that wouldve made me at least win. I cant lie though everything about the playlist was fun, I just wish I couldve won recon armor. I would gladly appreciate it if I could take on one of your challenges to unlock it or something. I also dont think im speaking for myself, I think that a bunch of people are having my experience and havent gotten anything. Dont get me wrong im not completely mad at you guys, you still kick ass and your appreciated.

Sincerely and Thoughtfully,
Julian Vega a.k.a IF10w

What is DNF?

Anyways, I know I didn't get recon because, well, I have a life. It's to bad, but the playlist was 'okay'. I would have to say that more fun gametypes would have been better (action sack style instead of traditional slayer). after getting paired up with Generals and Brigaders for 5 hours or so I called it quits. I never had a chance due to my slower than most internet speed....

I live life to the full i play halo alot sometimes my favorite halo game is halo3 my best friends are cpt s miller sargent JJ and James kennon.

Just because you didn't get recon dosen't mean you didn't achieve something but you did though we all did and that was we all had fun. so i say stop feeling down for your selfs and get right back into fighting to achieve more things i tryed to get recon Instead i got banned but no matter how many time i get banned i am just happy i have halo 3 and soon to have halo3 odst besides its just armour and if they ask me if i wanted recon i would say no.

http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsH alo3.aspx?gameid=1227135778&player=defnop552
This is a game ID

They were looking for;
http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsH alo3.aspx?gameid=1227177777&player=defnop552

**EDIT** Just noticed that in my last played bungie vs world game ID http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsH alo3.aspx?gameid=1227135778&player=defnop552.
If you add all the numbers of the ID together you get 43.
4+3=7

I win :)

Rookie iz Pro

Well I did not win I guess its time to pack my bags and head down to campaign and try to win this weeks mythic difficulty challenge which is not going to happen I guess winning recon is just not for me. * He thinks to himself or is it? *

Even though I am dissapointed I did not get recon, if everyone who is complaining (or asking for recon lol) got recon, it would not be a special thing anymore because pretty much everyone you see will have recon. Even people who did not play for a very long time are complaining when they should definitely not. For those of you that say the Vidmaster Challenges are too easy and everyone is going to have recon anyways, the new challenges do not sound too easy. Especialy Classic IMO. But we are still not sure If those are the real achievements or if some jacktard made them up and modded them on to their achievements list. Who knows? Maybe the last three skulls will be super-duper-uber-extreme-too-the-max-difficult to get.

Yes but not all of them are out yet. You can do Lightswitch, 7 on the 7th, and Annual right now. Brainpan cannot be finnished yet.

Edit: OMG! I just looked at my first post and I said recon looks ugly?!!?!?! Well I probably was in denial since I thought I would never get it.

I can snipe u from wicked fahh

I read this and a lot of you are selfish saying Bungie owes us or that its not fair that you didnt get a chance. Name another gaming company that plays with its community for prizes? Thats right none do so Bungie owes us nothing. They work long hours and then they have to read about sore losers whining.

To everyone be happy you had a chance at winning anything at all. Bungie thank you for being dedicated to your community and how in gods name do you put up with all this whining.

Working at Bungie would make me angry 24/7 reading this crap.

I think it's cool you guys gave out recon to people who had the best stats for the day. I just wish I didn't have a full time job and could have played all day and night to have a better shot.

I will say this though, I think the teabagging image is pretty uncalled for and hypocritical. If you refuse give recon to people who beat you on Bungie day because they teabagged you, you shouldn't turn around and teabagg your entire global fan base after you win. If you think you didn't lose respect from that, you're delusional. If you lost would you have liked to see an image of the world teabagging you? I think not. And barely beating a bunch of staff captains and strike commanders after having only a couple drinks does not qualify you to gloat over victory. I thought trash talking was frowned upon, yet you turn around and do it when you really have nothing to gloat about. Priding yourself on being the developers of one of the greatest if not the greatest shooter in the history of video games should be enough satisfaction not to urinate on us like that. You make yourselves look like you have little respect sometimes. I know you take a lot of -blam!- from people in the forums but isn't it you're job to just brush it off and understand that comes with the territorty? I'm not going to front, I partake in trash talking and teabagging at times, it's an accepted part of all competition to a degree as long as it doesn't go overboard. What I don't do is publicly frown upon it, then turn around and do it to the entire world. If trash talking is looked upon as unsportsmanlike at Bungie, a simple GOOD GAME would have sufficed.

And another thing, you guys must be some lightweights if between all employees you weren't even able to finish that liquor. You only had 6 bottles to start with and between everyone you could only kill half the captain, and didn't even touch the Jose. You made it sound like you each downed a fifth but in reality you probably each only had a shot and a beer if that, judging by the photos.

I'm not trying to be rude, I give mad respect to all of you for making Halo 3. I'm just calling you out on a few obvious things you deserve to be called out on.

  • 07.11.2009 7:03 PM PDT

They were joking about the teabag = no recon thing dude. And I think the image is quite funny. I believe it is a joke and not so much a taunt.
