So what do we do if we have not one, but two Xbox systems red ring but two days after the game comes out?
I was able to play about three glorious hours of campaign one night, then two nights later when I finally found time, both my roommate's and my Xbox consoles got the Red Ring of Death. Being poor college students none of us can easily get a hold of another console :(

I just tried one of those custom firefight modes out and got a couple of achievements. But I can't say I got any satisfaction out of it. I still got the 1M left and I might go for it "legit". How much credits could one expect from run like that?

Hey I have a suggestion, why not boot inactive players from firefight match making so they don't get free cR?

  • 09.19.2010 2:10 AM PDT

theres probably one thing i dont like and thats the fact that the dmr has a large reticule expanding thing what ever you call it cause i find it hard to get head shot unless i shoot boringly slowly. but other than that good game.

Brian has said there's no Legendary ending.

Also, that map Cotton made, with its hand and the flaming ball of fire therein (yes, I know it's a Killball) gives me an idea for a map. Let's just say... One Ring to rule them all.

I'm not a fan of the stupid team kill rule, cause yesterday I was playing invasion being overrun and right before I died I threw a PG and it killed one single guy on my team who just walked up and I was booted, it made me want to go play a game without so many stupid rules, and yes I was talking about halo 3's FS rule, one modded map that I downloaded from the Bnet got me banned.

You guys are total killjoys stop reporting everyone you see there is nothing wrong with modding, and if there is, start reporting your favorite machinimas, how do you think they have no weapons, so go ahead and report CMNeir, RvB, Spriggs, and much much more. I would love to see you guys report Rooster Teeth.

Great update, and great game! ^_^

The WU touches on Firefight achievements being potentially easy to get, but like it sas, Firefight's what you make of it.

In my case, it's utterly brilliant. Sniping practice with endless ammo and endless waves of fast-moving, dodging and shooting enemies. Crank it up to Heroic or Legendary, invincible-fy myself and get practicing.

So regarding the Reach soundtrack, when is it going to come to the Canadian iTunes store?

You look unto me now through the profile screen found at http://www.bungie.net/Account/Profile.aspx. Here we are, mutually faceless, both ones in the Seventh.

You're also a baby who sucks at Halo. Your call.

I suck because I like making and playing hilarious Firefight gametypes with my friends?

Bungie, thanks for the amazing game that was awaited with much anticipation. I love Reach. Big thanks to the whole Bungie team!

I am a very pestamistic person. I see the glass half empty, even when it's full. Dont expect much from me.

How do we tell bungie employees(whats left of them) from normal people like you did in halo 3?


Btw the flaming recon sucks. you can see the fire even when you have active camo on. so it's kinda pointless.

Looks like someone made an addition to the update since I first read it on Friday...

Luke has a slightly different take, noting that if you want to utilize the wealth of available Firefight customization options and our built-in File Browser and File Share features to download an easier way to snag these particular achievements, or if you create a variant of your own design, you've simply discovered yet another one of Halo: Reach's robust features. It's what you call a Win/Win.

If I check my file on bungie.net my armor doesn't show up but all of my friends does, and I'm connected to Xbox Live with a Gold Membership. Any suggestions?

I cant believe we have to wait another couple of weeks for bungie to fix matchmaking. Next time try to finish the game before you sell it too us

I also dislike the easy firefight achievements. Even though we never got the endure achievement, my friends and I loved playing towards it... now it's just -blam!-

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Great stuff - this game is incredible!

Get over it, cause its either hard firefight achievments, or hard random achievments (coughIfTheyCameToHearmeBegcough)which drew quite a crowd.

Ya but the AC in halo reach sucks so much that you take one step, no camo for you. When I used camo for the first time after buying reach, I was like "time to own some stupid noobs with some sweet camo" then I used the camo and I was all like "OH THATS -Blam!- -Blam!-!!!!!!!"
