The Mythic Threads (Halo 3) (ODST) (Reach)

Man...feels weird, I remember before Halo 3 I was on Halo 2 and said "Man...this place is dead, Bungie has probably ditched it for Halo 3."

Don't forget the fire extinguisher.

A Halo 2 Glitch Master, "retired" since i couldn't find anything good in Halo 3, hoping for a come back. I'm a huge Marathon fan too. If you want to verse me, please message me through my Bungie.net profile.
My weapon of choice is the warthog (Driving); I'm one of the best drivers out there, so if i get my hand on a vehicle, you're going to wish i hadn't XD

April 20th I became one of the final 30 people to play Halo 2 online. Unfortunately I was kicked by Microsoft that day.

hey can i have the old server matrix? =D

Regret is the domain of those who have earned the right to look back on the past. All I have is shame.

So does this mean we won't be able to play online today?

Will changing the servers improve matchmaking performance, IE reduction in lag?

Thanks for choosing to whine over being a productive member of the community and possible element towards advancing Reach.

Truth be told I'm going to be busy for most of the day so...yeah.

Thanks for the heads up though.

Again, the flamin helmet bonus was an excellent idea, you know how to treat your fans Bungie...

Acquire Aesthetics.

Make sure you destroy the Disembodied Soul in the process, end it for good. Now's your chance Bungie.

Nice! Bungie Day was truly special! Though the flames were great for a day, the atmosphere yesterday playing customs with friends was great. Nostalgia'd a lot.

Shush! Maybe they'll forget to press that button and leave them on ;-)

No, it means you won't be able to do some fileshare stuff and see your recent game stats on b.net untill the upgrading is done, you can still play matchmaking and customs =)

So, whats going to happen to the old servers? Will they go to server heaven? Get donated to the needy? Or go to a trash heap?

True fans don't care if others get the same stuff as they do, they play the game because they enjoy it, not to get some exclusive stuff.

I'll be happy with the upgrade as long as they're not Dell Servers.

They crash more times, than the world has played any Halo matchmaking game.

  • 07.08.2010 10:49 AM PDT

Do we lose any playlists today?

  • 07.08.2010 10:53 AM PDT

Kickin' names and takin' ass

So...That makes sense, but are you saying we messed up the servers as a consequence of yesterday? Or in the whole time we've played it? Anyway, it'll be sad to say goodbye to the Halo 3 servers. Coulda gave a us a heads up lol. We'd probably have a lot more people playing for the day we had them.. Which.. would be a contradiction to what your doing now..
Bungie r soo smartz <3

So will the Reach Service Record come into full service now?

  • 07.08.2010 10:55 AM PDT

Join The Reach Asset a group I am very proud to be a leader of.

sounds smexy!

  • 07.08.2010 11:02 AM PDT

No, I'm not perfect, but I have the feeling you're the kind of person who is used to meeting imperfect people on the internet.

Even server maintenance is fun to read, Damn I love these guys.

Wow, seems so weird that Halo 3 is already being downsized =)... Can't wait for Reach!
