say your playing on longshore you have 15 kills and no deaths. only 20 seconds left in the game. your facing a bunch of noobs who dont even know what a 4-shot is. someone sends u a message. earlier you had sent this person a message and they didnt respond untill now. so you open up your inbox and as soon as you you get killed by a rocket launcher.

this problem has happened to many people and i have a solution to fix it. either as an xbox update or as something included withe reach. you press up on the d-pad and a small little box appears at the bottom of the screen. a messaging box. a messaging box would be sweet because it doesnt fill the entire screen so you dont know what the hell is happening. just type in the messaging box and even if your now tone writing you can continue to shoot. you scroll through the letters with the d-pad. i hope u guys like my idea. also as a little bonus in this thread write you own scenario where the messaging box has ruined everything that matters to u in life

Impossible is Nothing.

I would think you would just use common sense and ignore the message like the rest of us do. If you're miraculously ahead with 47 kills and 0 deaths, you probably won't be worried about messages. But that's just me.

Then you're probably about 12 which means you're too young for the game?

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Yeah, your the dumb one for trying to view a message in-game. The system is fine.

Actually, I quite like this idea. It'd most-likely need to be an Xbox-related thing. You ought to go onto the Xbox.com forums or something and mention it there.

Am I right in assuming that you can continue to play as normal, but it would simply have the message appear in a small pop-up box for you to read?

I would certainly prefer it if you still simply required to press the Guide-Button. The D-Pad can often have certain commands attached to it, and I prefer the Guide Button as a wild-card button for anything related to the Live, such as messages.

What's the point of attending school if you don't take advantage of its lessons?

We're getting off-topic here. You're question has been answered.

Um... I like Halo? I don't really know what to say. I'm a student at the moment, I hope to become a criminal profiler, and I enjoy pretty much everything as long as it's good.

I'm sorry, but are you stupid? Just wait for the game to end and then read the message. If you care so badly about whether or not you get killed then you might as well just leave the messege for later.

"Go then, there are other worlds than these."

I for one don't want message boxes popping up during a game period. I'd rather be able to turn off message alerts via live completely while in a game.

i would but i have commited myself to the idiotic comments of the bungie forums

Fight me if you want but when you lose, don't come crying to me saying I 'cheated' or anything.

Don't they already have something like that? with the messenger chat?

Please ignore them. Responding to insults is never a good idea. I had the same level of grammar and spelling when I joined, you'll get better, as long as you want to.

Anyway, I think this idea is a pretty cool one, and I'm serious when I say that you should try and contact one of the Xbox Dev-Folk.

Seriously.. this IS the internet. The only way to not have your "intelligence" <correct spelling> insulted, is not to post. :)

If it isn't a problem you have DONT COMPLAIN. Simple as that. The idea is stupid because it only effects stupid players.

No, and I don't normally correct spelling. You clearly missed the point I was making. On the internet, people will insult your intelligence for anything. The terms "moron" and "idiot" are utilized on these and other forums on a regular basis. It's the norm.

As Joshua in 'War Games' said: "A strange game; the only way to win is not to play."
