Subject: Bungie Weekly Update: 07.23.10

I love pretty much anything halo and I like videogames that is all you need to know. Oh yeah I like Halo! Oh wait I already said that. ALSO IGNORE ALL MY RENDER VIDEOS THEY WHERE FOR A SIDE PROJECT.

To much. I think I'm going to have a brain overload. Great update full of goods. I also feel obligated to drive the forklift it will be my new best friend and together we will run over everything in our path. We will be unstopable no one will be able to stop us! Oh wait its out of gas.

Tank Beats Everything!

I wonder if there will be a faster way to get around Forge World. Maybe a Pelican?

A brilliant peak into the minds of my all time favourite game series.

This is the update that just kept on giving!

Took me 4 cigarettes to get through the whole thing and I was rapt.

Totally beat Sketch and Lukeums with there showy photos.

Thanks Urk and all involved!

Ferrex: "[...] perhaps to your astonishment, we do have more significant bans prepared for habitual AFK'ers and betrayal inciting. We've thought about this harder than you have."

LOLOLOLOL clearly you are wrong.

What system does forge use to give you credits after you're done forging?
Time actively spent in the Forge does provide some credits.

(And pre-emptive chill-out: we do distinguish between "active", "idle", and "rubber band on your controller". ;)


That made me lol, rubber band....who would ever do a thing like that.

...walks off mumbling.....

EX: In Assault, can I make Elites attackers and Spartans defenders?

This looks great. I just wish they'd not have wasted time on ODST churning out second-rate drivel, when they could have put even more effort into Reach.

Follow the Don @Don_Gino you know where
Don't mistake my kindness for something else

Hello again,
That was the biggest update ever! I now have a headache! Thanks a lot!

All kidding aside, I am so excited over forge world. I can already foresee my friends getting angry with me because I will be forging when they want to matchmake. Too bad, but they should be mad at you guys for making it so awesome, lol. I can not wait, it looks like so much fun. This is going to be the awesomest (is that a word?) game ever! I may have to go dark like you suggest becuase the anticipation is killing me! You jerkfaces! Stop it already! I can't take it anymore. And after seeing all of the things you have revealed I can't even go back to H3 to 'get me by' until reach comes out because it is like playing pong after you got your fist taste of pac-man. Lol I hope someone quotes me on that!

Anyway like always, I love you guys and what you do and if you really want to put your builds thought some serious testing, let me give it a try. I promise if it is breakable I can find a way to break it. It is an ability I have been granted by my ocd! And in the past you have spared nothing in expoiting that aspect of my personality to get me to buy your awesome games so how about a little appriciation my way by letting me try to break it before you ship it? Yes I'm just clowning around but man I sure would like to play me some reach right about now! Plus I promise I won't tell anyone if you let me, unless you want me too. Man I loved the Halo reach beta and I can't wait until I am back on reach again!

Much love and take care. See you on Reach!

edit: How did I miss that reference to tails of the goldern monkey, one of my favorite childhood shows? Nice one though. maybe if that update wasn't the longest thing ever I might of caught it. Now I wonder what else I missed... going back now

I achieved my Recon armor through the screenshot contest Team Control, not Bungie Day or ODST. 5/29/09
No, Luke! Noo!
64th last player to play Halo 2 online.

Thanks for the HUGE update urk.

Just to confirm, to get the RECON armour variant, can you get it by buying the limited/legendary edition, or do you have to just pre-order the game.

If so, which are the participating retailers in the UK?

  • 07.24.2010 2:07 AM PDT

1. Thank you Chris for this awesome insight into the production and design. The part about keeping a campaign "fun" was inspiring.
2.We'll talk about the contents of the Behind the Scenes action a little bit later on. Like not this week later on. Rest assured, though, it'll be a tour de force.


YES, I raged back in April where there was no Making Of DVD announced in either of the Special Editions, but this sounds like a Commentary Skull, which would be great.

In the US you get Recon if you buy on Day One. Outside of the US, you get Recon if you preorder at any retailer.

Please Bungie, I want to do splatters with forklift. Can't you make the forklift a little faster?

Great update =D

Can I be a nag and ask for a nice desktop sized concept art of the forge world concept art to be added to the Reach project page?

  • 07.24.2010 3:02 AM PDT

Wow, long update.

  • 07.24.2010 3:21 AM PDT

I love Video Games

This update is off the chain. I wish there was a silver gloss xbox 360 slim though.
