you all know this will only fix it for a few weeks. some asshat is going to find a way around it.

I think Bungie will figure something out before some -blam!- gets around the autoupdate.


like someone said b4 in another thread "i dont' think that bungie will let somone -blam!-, beat and prostitute thier baby. They are working as hard as they can to stop the asshats who would do this. they'll figure somthing out b4 then. they are gettingn ahead of the game!!

I really hope that the cheaters GT is posted on the internet. I really hope this really works, and there is no way to bypass it, like Standby, which is still there, i know i played them :(

Ah finally something to stop these hardcore newbies, im happy just thinking about what they're guna say and what they'll do when they try to log on and find out that they cant do §hit, now I wont have to get freaked out when im playing on containment on BTB, although i've only been modded against once, and i've had modders on my team two times, but like some others said, those nerds that live in their mothers attic or basement are going to do all that their useless lives can do just to get around this.
Forgeting that, cant wait to play BTB again without the fear of modders.

guys maybe i missed something but i dont think bungie quite explained how this update is going to actually ban the cheaters, and by that i mean is it going to recognize the mods when live is signed in to or maybe when it detects themm in a game or what, my concern is not that this update wont work as i have just realized my post seems to imply, my only fear is that it may ban a legitiment player in the situation tht they join a team playlist alone and get matched up with modders on their team as i have had happen several times. please if one of the bungie staff is monitering this topic on the forum plz elaborate a bit to settle my worries.

Hey i just want to know why some people want to "de-level". By doing so take there teammates that just want to play and build there level up down. what is the point it just makes it harder for them to get there level back even though there playing lower levels. I just usually quit a game when i see a person with -3 kills that just stupidity. And for all those people that are tired of getting cursed at or yelled at just either quit, turn your headset off, or if you know what player is yelling just mute that person. another question does it effect your exp that you aquire duing a matchmade game if you help your enemy kill a fellow team mate, if so shouldn't it be considers a betrale when that happens that way you can boot the person doing it.

I suggest you edit your post to prevent your friend being banned. logging on to Live AT ALL with a modded Xbox will get you banned. Campaign included. Plus, you just informed bungie that your friend CHEATS probably with a MODDED BOX. If you want to save your friendship and your friends live account, EDIT THE POST and then tell your friend to remove ALL modded content on his box!

Thank You Bungie
now finaly honest gamers can test their skills with the best of them without having to worry about one bad apple on either side ruining the experience for everyone yet still we all know there are going to be cheap moves and tactics that will make it hard on all of us (ie. Noob combo, positioning your self to die and the objective to fall outside the "invisible wall", and just team killing or assisting the oposing team via driving multi passenger vehicles for the opposing team" so if the team with the cheater kills him intintionally or by accident via a rocket up the tailpipe of a teamkilling warthog driver he can boot us. But still it is a giant step in the right direction. Thanks Bungie

IF you think Bungie sucks then why are you on this website -blam!-ing about it? Get out now before people start to verbally attack you through thier posts.

I think Bungie has something up their sleeve to get rid of these guys. Something sneaky. Flaming Ninja sneaky. You know what would be friggin tite? An in-game moniter that, once it detects a modder, BANS him in-game and gives the other team the win! I would also like more feedback options (where's the one for incessant whining or constant betrayals!?!?).

So it's almost upon us. The Autoupdate you've been screaming for. The one that takes care of hackers, modders and other flavors of cheat. All the questions you could possibly have are answered in here.


Must... resist... urge... to -blam!-e...

FRANKIE!!!! HAVE MY CHILDREN!!!!

(where's the one for incessant whining or constant betrayals!?!?).

Incessant whining = bad attitude
constant betrayels = cheating

God this feels just like Christmas. No more modders, cheaters, etc. I can see the light at the end of this tunnel of cheating and dumbassity.
