Subject: Bungie Weekly Update: 07/10/09

i think that bungie shuld have given recon to the top 1000 people with exp in bungie vs world cuz all this stuff is crap dude.. i just played with a guy on griff bal with 46 exp and had recon and all he did was tea bag and team kill like if he was the best just for being a cscrub and being in one the -blam!- criteria these drunk bastards hav put up.. people who play to win and play for fun and are really good shuld get it becuz they deserve it not a random loser

Loading up Halo 3 now to check.

*cries knowing I wont have it*

One of my friends got it. He'll never let that one slide. Well, I got the Mythic map pack for free (from Urkles!!), and my reward is worth money. His? Well, money is better than respect.

Bwahahaha.

Bungie me and my friends were playing That Bungie Game When it started. We Started Playing Till The Bungie game was over. But we neverd played with 1 Bungie So can you Give me and my Friends a chance To Vs. you In like Slayer Or somthing

  • 07.12.2009 1:00 PM PDT

Urk gave you it?

anyway one of the people on my friends list got someone else gamertag he knew (with their consent)so he can download the mythic on his hardrive, it wont work for him though. He has to wait for odst to get the rest of the maps I guess

edit: @ dudehardy

bungie vs. world is over even if you fight them I dont think they'll give you recon since its over. I heard earlier in the day there was only 40,000 people playing(chances of playing them were way better than when there was 182,000 playing)

[talking about Reach maps]
"...but Asylum is better than Pinnacle, right?"
"Oh yeah are you kidding me? Hell is better than Pinnacle!"

haha i love how there were so many posts of people -blam!-ing about how they didn't get to fight bungie or whatever and almost all of them were apparently incapable of using proper grammar and/or spelling. if any of them had any brains (even though they already demonstrated they don't) they would've done the math and known the chances of actually getting matched with bungie were fairly poor and so they should've just played for fun instead of being so obsessed with recon and fighting bungie. IT DOESN'T -blam!- MATTER PEOPLE JUST PLAY FOR FUN!

Try the summer mythic recon challenge. Btw, lots of people played all day and did not get matched up with Bungie, and by all day I mean 24 hours not the 12 to 16 hours most people spend being awake.

  • 07.12.2009 6:34 PM PDT

Another person asking to fight bungie (in letter form). They no nothing about the dreaded black list apparently. If you ask them for the reconz...they no give you reconz. It seems every message for recon has them brown nosing like it would work.

Btw I was playing Halo today and got matched with one of the lucky winners who got recon.
It looks cooler in the actual game then looking at it in one of those pictures that are sent to me almost everyday (that say if I send it to 100 people I'll unlock it). I actually want recon cause it looks cool not because few people have it. When odst comes out Bungie will probably come up with some elite hayabusa armor or something that they only have and people will forget all about recon.

burning shadows heart

bungie vs world was sweet i met plenty of new friends tho i was pretty bumbed i didnt get to play bungie *sighs* oh well what can you do, right. my thoughts is bungie should make bungie day a yearly or mounthly thing. i know alot of ppl (includeing myself) bought the map packs that day just to play on bungie vs world. i was soo ready to play!! i am not the best halo player but i love the game it was the first one i have ever been able to call mine (well halo for the orignal xbox) it was cool but i was just a moveing target for the other team to shoot as a bonus kill b/c i couldnt react fast enuff. i loved it tho and then when halo 2 came out i got it xmas day and put it right in my xbox and didnt bother to open anything else. heh i was a little better at halo 2 untill we started to play online. i was stoked when halo 3 was comeing out. we didnt have a 360 and i didnt expect to get one or halo 3 but i opend the gift xmas morning and there was a 360 and the legendary halo3. i am ok a halo 3 im a best driver in the banshi mongoose and hog. heh but yeah you guys should make bungie vs world a yearly or mounthly thing. i was really bumbed i didnt get to play you guys but i still had fun!! and besides i think if i would have won a game agenst you guys you would have been sad b/c im a girl and i can hold my own in halo 3. but around 3:30 the stran of being up sence 2 am to play you guys was etting in and i was out of mtn dew XD. but i did have fun!! and thanks for doing that even if i didnt get to play bungie i was still good sport and had a good time even if others where really rude 1 b/c im a girl and ppl on live r very sexest. 2 b/c they think 3 teaming on me and then teebagging me was "powning". heh sorry you guys but if it takes 3 of you to kill one person and one of you has rockets plus im a girl go buy viva penita (sorry for the miss spells) thanks again wolffangwind

i thought the katana was only unlocked by compleating the first halo 3 achevments

now please dont take this the wrong way, but to everyone who has left messages, blogs, or comments on how Bungie cheated them of Recon by not showing up tp play them, let me humbly remind you of a few things...
1. they are quite right to say that finding them is like finding a needle in a haystack and you shouldn't be offended that they did not consider you worthy enough to play them.
2. there was only a couple matches per hour, so out of the millions of games played, only a small handful actually involved Bungie members
3. Bungie is, in this humble bloggers opinion, the greatest consumer/gamer oriented designer studio in existence and should be applauded for even giving you the CHANCE to earn this highly coveted symbol of digital status, which brings me to my final point...
4. WHEN ODST DROPS INTO STORES ON SEPTEMBER THE 22ND, EVERY SINGLE PERSON WITH A 360, GOLD MEMBERSHIP, AND HALO 3 AND ODST DISK WILL BE ABLE TO RECEIVE RECON BY COMPLETING THE EXISTING AND NEW VIDMASTER CHALLENGES THAT WILL BE RELEASED WITH THE DISK, SO QUIT WHINING THAT YOU DONT HAVE IT RIGHT NOW AS IT WILL NO LONGER MEAN ALMOST ANYTHING AS A STATUS SYMBOL WHEN ODST COMES OUT

please do not take this as an attack, im simply trying to spread a little good cheer and heal some virtual scars by reminding the most disgruntled gamers that your prize is not completely out of grasp and only a little patience is neede to achieve it.

as for you Bungie, while i was not able to find you myself in the playlist, i believe it would have been an honor to play with you guys as it would have given me an opportunity for bringing us such a wonderful and colorful game, community, and past time. sorry i couldnt include more sevens in this message, but on the brighter side, my birthday is only 15 days after Bungie Day and i am glad to share a birthday with you guys. i think i can speak for the entire gaming community when i say that we love you guys (even though i may say the opposite when faced with an...unfortunate spawn) and we hope to see more of your great work in the years to come. Thankyou for all youve done, and you ARE my daddys.

From your most humble servant and fan,
Appl3sauc3 P3T3

p.s: please do not disregard this as a bid for Recon due to heart-string tugging and butt-kissing, as for the reasons mentioned above, i think i can wait for a couple more months ;)
...and between you and me, i like elites better anyway
ARBITER FTW!

Well okay, 1st this is my 1st post and I hope it is received well. I have a serious issue that I want to politely discuss and if a Bungie support staffer could help me out I'd love it. I participated in Bungie Day and actually got to square off against a team of Bungie staffers. Our team won and I Have yet to receive the Recon armor benefit for doing so. I know asking for the armor in the past has been looked down upon but I simply wanted to know if there was a mix up or if I somehow was maybe banned from getting it OR even if I have overlooked it being there somehow. I have saved the video to my file share and can even give you the Gamer tag names for the Bungie players who were in the game too. Please help me out with how to proceed next. Thank you and I truly mean no animosity.
