"Wait....... I have..... another... gun..."

Mostly with my toe, but you know.

I completely give up. I was willing to wait until Monday and be happy with that, and be happy that only a few people would get in. I found out that they were handing out codes today and thought I might have a chance. I spent half of my day looking all over the internet, including all of Bungie.net constantly looking for codes because there were so many. I started attempting codes within 30 seconds of the three long posts on the front page and stopped attempting an hour later.

I even solved the riddle in the forums and the censored three letter combination from the front page (involving a G, a K and an F), as well as one hidden code. All three were used.

I would find it fair to have seen Bungie randomly hand out codes to individuals and me simply not get one. This method is nerve-wracking.

Oh, and I start work on Monday, so this is a double fail.

  • 04.30.2010 7:54 PM PDT

-blam!- my mother -blam!- -blam!- ass life. i -blam!- searched for a code for an hour and i started 5 minutes after the codes were released and i -blam!- cant find one. what the -blam!-

I agree, Europe will be pissed off :D And now its hard to stay stuned at nearly 5 AM

  • 04.30.2010 7:55 PM PDT

I mean don't you guys find it a LITTLE suspicious that there are maybe 100, if EVEN, posting on these boards..

and 1000, ONE THOUSAND codes were taken within 10 minutes?

There is absolutely no way. There are people using manipulative ways to get these codes, and its ridiculous.

Bungie made this way too impersonal and any one and their mother could have came to Bungie.net and clicked those links, whether they had an account with the site or not.

I think its total bs.

  • 04.30.2010 7:55 PM PDT

Man... This makes me feel pointless.

  • 04.30.2010 7:55 PM PDT

it's took like 20 min and all codes gone.

"Wait....... I have..... another... gun..."

At least make one more post, but with all the codes in a picture format, bungie!

It would be a lot easier.

1000+ people arn't even ON the website.

I'm not complaining that much, monday after school it is then.

Yeah, I'm waiting for another 6 minutes (so it'll be 8PDT) then going if they don't give out another code.

I've been playing Halo since the start, this is the most livid I've every been with Bungie.

I have defied gods and demons.
I am your shield. I am your sword.
I know you. Your past; your future.
This is the way the world ends.

not with a bang, but a whimper.

Please Urk, for the people that just had no luck in obtaining a Halo: Reach MP beta code.. would you, for the last time, please put some more codes on. We already love you so much even though we didn't get to get a code but we would highly appreciate it even more if you could do this for one more time. Please Urk.

From your friendly neighborhood gamer, HappyWinner94.


Agreed, but only the members that posted on the forum should get one.

to think just yesterday Real Time Worlds Suddenly had the idea to change APB from a buy to play game to a pay to play game and today all the reach codes were stolen.

Dang, I was at work when this went down. Oh well, you're the best for doing this Bungie!

Thank you bungie for the pounding headache from entering codes for 3 hours. I gues they don't care about their loyal community members after all, how do I unlink my gamertag?

Wouldn't have mattered, I was here typing in codes from the minute they were posted for the last 3 hours and nothing, this is bull-blam!-

  • 04.30.2010 8:02 PM PDT

I'll say it again: Why isn't the Beta being released TODAY because its obviously live now? I mean what's the point? Plus, I don't have a lot of time to play Monday. They could've gotten more players if it was released today.

And I agree, shouldn't the people who bought ODST be the first ones to get the beta? We had to pay for it.

Yep.

  • 04.30.2010 8:03 PM PDT

I swear Bungie hates me. They go and post HUNDREDS of codes while I am eating dinner. Thanks Bunige. I love you too.

  • 04.30.2010 8:03 PM PDT

I Love the kids that posted stuff like, "Cool I got one on my first try..." Yea... Rub it in.

  • 04.30.2010 8:04 PM PDT

Bungie, please release more codes. I've tried so many from the two lists and they're all used. Give us all a fair chance! I've been playing since Halo: CE, and I've tried since yesterday to get one code!
