Q: Will I get the Halo 2 flair?
A: Do we have Halo 2 data for you? (If I did that link right, then if you're signed in, it should try and bring you to your Halo 2 stats page. The link is gone from the top of the website, but the page is still there via a tab on your Halo 3 service record. If you see data for yourself, then you'll get the emblem. There was no date window for eligibility. Any games there count.



I thought that you had to play halo 2 recently before it was shut down?

Just to be clear, as long as my halo 2 stats show up on that link, i'm eligible for the icon?

also, I remember you saying that you may remove the cutoff for the Halo CE flair a few weeks ago, did you?

One more thing, only the CE and marathon flairs are obtainble right now, right?

Yeah, but, damn. <:|
And about the doing it for the community thing, it just seems like an annoyance for them to do this thing, and then ignore it for certain people depending on what version of the game they played. It's not just for Vista too the same thing goes for an original Halo CE Xbox save, it seems like Halo Reach could just check the hard drive for it.

To all of the new Halo PC owners: Welcome to the club!

Take some time to download Halo: Custom Edition and play some custom maps like New Mombassa, Yoyorast, Zanzibar, Snow Grove, Delta Ruins etc. These are all classic Halo CE maps! Unfortunately the CE community has been dieing over the past year and the majority of custom maps are all the crappy ones that put "cool vehicles and mechs" over gameplay. The CE community could use this little jolt of activity. If you buy the game stay for a while, CE is great because you don't even need the CD in to play it. CE is a ton of fun even today so play every once and a while if you buy it now.

You had to have played Halo 2 - that's all.

And they removed the cut-off for CE :)

Well then, I need to find a store with CE.

Thanks to Halo, even though still I don't like Mondays, I can now shoot the whole day down.

1) I have the disk the original Halo CE for orignal Xbox.

2) I'm not talking about anything online related. Just have the damn game check the damn hard drive the same way Mass Effect does. Except, all you are looking for is the mear -blam!- existance of a Halo CE game save on the hard drive. Then just check it off in game Reach and save it (settings I guess) for Reach.

Why is this so complicated?


Well apart from the fact that Sawnose JUST said:

Q: What about Halo 1 Xbox via Games on Demand?
A: Bungie is no longer part of Microsoft and we simply do not have access to the purchase data for this game, nor does it register online. It shows up in the console's recent games list, but not your gamercard for us to see. It's out of our hands


Apart from this I guess a main reason is that Bungie wants to reward the loyal PC players for playing. Isit really so hard to understand???


I'd say that it would be rewarding "loyal" fans if they had somehow kept the cutoff date. Now people are going to just go out and purchase the Halo CE for PC just for the flair having only logged 1 game. I downloaded the marketplace version more than a year ago and will not be getting the CE flair, but somehow people who will go and purchase it today could? That seems a bit sketchier than either rewarding us all or having a cutoff date.

Otherwise, just 19 more days to go.

Aye.

Is it not possible to look at the recent games to unlock the nameplate for Halo 2 Vista? It shows up in recent games in the same way that it does for Marathon for XBLA...

Walk to close you get burnt
stray to far away you freeze

Only a few words to say i hate keys stealers :(
Nice set up though Bungie

  • 08.26.2010 1:29 PM PDT

I'm kind of a completionist when it comes to stuff like this, and when they ignore the fact that I played the game online because it wasn't tracked on the Xbox version ticks me off.

  • 08.26.2010 1:34 PM PDT

If i get halo: ce now for my xbox 360 will i be able to get the visual flair?

  • 08.26.2010 1:37 PM PDT

It seems like a simple patch could fix this.

  • 08.26.2010 1:39 PM PDT

damn

but cheers man

Seems like it but it won't.

  • 08.26.2010 1:41 PM PDT

normal is just an opinion

No and i thought my brothers breaking my halo 2 disc wouldn't effect me
they broke it before i got live
i still kept it

  • 08.26.2010 1:42 PM PDT

Simple was the wrong word, but I do believe that a patch could fix it.

Where exactly do I go to get my privacy settings turned off so I can get my Marathon flair?

EDIT: I got it. I guess I just needed to wait a while for it to show up in my recent games. Now I should have every known flair.

I think it's in the 'Edit Profile' part on the Xbox dashboard.
Not sure though.
