Ive just relised my problem and when i completed the classic vidmaster achievement the other day i got dis-connect right at the end of the mission for the xbl update.

So now when i look at the achievement it says ive done it offline which must be the reason why.

I have gone back and completed the mission twice today and still no button to unlock recon.

HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Road to Recon!
Error: We couldn't verify the Classic achievement. Wait 24 hours for the game to appear on Bungie.net


I'm quite patient, so I waited 36 hours from unlocking my last vidmaster (endure) which i unlocked about 2 hours after unlocking my 2ed to last vidmaster (deja vu). Classic has been unlocked since the 24th of September.

http://www.bungie.net/stats/halo3/achievements.aspx?player=Fl ammmy

The only thing I can think of that might be preventing me from getting my recon is the fact that i replyed the same level i beat it on for classic later, possibly less than 24 hours. I beat it on legendary solo both times, and if the code bungie has running only reviews the last time each campaign was played... then it might have a problem with me.

Thanks in advance,
Flammy

does even a bungie member look at these problems because if not then i might aswell stop asking for help because i dont seem to be getting far with this problem.

I can prove that i have completed the classic mission if need be.

lol, i know what u mean mdarkskill.

what makes me laugh is that u do the achievement again and it still doesnt give u recon all because xbl want to do an update i have to lose out on all the hard work in trying to achieve recon.

all a bungie member needs to do is look at the game and they can see i was appearing online when doing the classic achievement like all my others and that i got dis-connect at the end of the game.

But the question is will a bungie memeber even borther to look as they dont care who gets recon or not.

There too busy trying to stop hackers but they are not succidding very well because when ever you try and play on multi-player you get host booted lol.

This game sucks at times.

You know what i think is funny..."You're password won't earn you recon", but in fact it will earn you recon because that is what you need to log into your profile on bungie to activate it and if you don't know that, but have all the achievements then no recon for you. IRONY

I unlocked them all legit, and my Brainpan won't show up. Its been 2 days...

same problem i got josh 5511 but on the classic mission and ive completed twice since and still cant unlock recon.

Noone seems to be helping as i emailed bungie yesterday and not had a reply.

I also PM Achronos and no reply from him.

  • 09.27.2009 10:29 AM PDT

Bungie is well aware of the problems people are having. Hopefully people will post their issues in here rather than making more threads about the same thing. Just be patient. Bungie will figure out a way to fix legit issues if you didn't cheat to get your achievements.

Hey guys, just a reminder. I am not a Bungie employee, nor am I in a position to help with things other than help you link your gamer tag and other simple issues. Anybody can contact a Bungie employee.

If you all have legit issues and did not mod anything then Bungie will find a way to fix it. There is no reason why they would not. Rather than spam Bungie employees inboxes, post your issue here. Then WAIT! Just wait. You have lived without Recon for two years. You can wait just a little longer.

This is a good life lesson for all here. The cool things in life no matter what it might be, including Recon pixels, delayed gratification can be your best asset. Be cool and don't harass or overwhelm Bungie employees. I have had to wait and weed through issues in the past to get the desired result.

You all seem to be keeping cool about this and not freaking out. Good! Keep it up. Someone will answer from Bungie sooner or later. As Joe Staten said when playing the Superintendent, "Please Remain Calm!"

If you have friends who are having trouble also, have them post in here rather than make yet another thread.

Bungie is probably taking these issues case by case. That is a lot of people. This takes time. Please remember this.

I don't see how this thread is "official" I don't see any endorsements from Bungie in here.
