I believe so because when i play halo the bungie symbol shows up next to my tag name.

I am also signed upto bungie.net and it shows all the vidmaster achievements have been completed but no button next to the road to recon.

If your a good gunner, got a mic, and need a driver, then I'm your wheelman.

Would someone keep this at the Forum top, so people can see this Recon issue topic? Hopefully it could help to stop new threads from being made about the same exact issue.

Then you are good to go with that then. People, there are other people who are having the same problem you are. I have PM'd one Moderator and Achronos about this thread. Even before I PM'd them, they have been more than aware of glitches. Most of you have been polite and not trolled in here. Thank you.

There are a lot of questions I can't answer. Not that you were asking me. I just put this up so Bungie doesn't have to go looking all around to find people who are having problems. They can just look here and find out who is having what problem and who might have really modded and who just has a legit glitch.

It's to bad they can't put up a page that if you got Recon blacklisted, only the blacklisted people can see. Have it tell briefly why you were black listed. The reason for only blacklisted people to be able to see the list would be to avoid other non-blacklisted people from harassing them and protect the blacklisted peoples privacy.

That is something you will have to take up with Bungie.

All's Fair

I didn't realize so many people were having trouble with Recon <.< I had my profile pulled up when I got my last achievement and backed in and out and my button was there. But yeah definatly Bungie needs to fix this if people are earning all the Vidmasters and not getting Recon, cause some of them are hard =P (Deja Vu and Endure lol, just gonna go ahead and say them) Hope everyone having trouble gets their armor <.<

That is the point of this thread. Also, if anyone who is having trouble with getting Recon after they have all the achievements or you have that one achievement that is saying acquired offline, think back. Did you do something wrong to get blacklisted? Be honest with yourself. If you honestly didn't do anything and you have a glitch, I am confident that Bungie will help you.

If you did do something wrong and you know it and you are trying pull the wool over Bungie's eyes, they know what you did. Bungie can look at things about your gameplay, posting history, bans and a lot more that we as normal users cannot. I sympathize with the honest people here. I hope this will will get worked out for you all. If you modded your achievements, well then you get what you deserve. I have said it before. I wouldn't want to be the guy who can't get Recon after 09/22/09 because I couldn't wait and get the achievement honestly. This, hopefully will be a lesson learned for later endeavors in life. If you cheat, it will catch up with you. Know matter what you cheat in.

I will remind everyone to be patient. I am quite sure Bungie is very aware that there are honest glitches people are having. Years from now when this is all over, I will still have all my screen shots and movies to look back on this and say "What a great era this was." Halo 2 brought us online MM. Halo 3 took it a step further. Sure other games will come out from Bungie, but these were the first of its kind. I am sure these honest glitches will be fixed.

Also, all of your achievements are locked. That's weird.

I went back over my vidmaster achievements and the solo mission says i completed it offline but i deffently completed online along with all my other achievements.

The solo vidmaster is the easiest one so there would be no reason to cheat lol.

Ive gone and completed the solo mission twice this morning and still no change.
