No soldier should be honored for doing what is expected

A few quick questions regarding the Rank Limit:

* Will credits earned after reaching Lt. Colonel grade 3 carry over into the new rank progression when the limit is lifted?

*Are you still able to make progress in your commendations when you reach Lt. Colonel grade 3?

Halo 3 (31st), ODST (14th) and Reach (4th) Mythic Conqueror. (Mythic is Solo, Legendary, All skulls on + scoring on and no deaths/saves).

You need to implement those playlist changes NOW. BTB is almost unplayable.

Oh and take the damn sniper spawn off Hemorhage in Invasion Slayer! Did nobody test this?

Oh, and the 5 second, and assists suddenly don't count anymore? CRAZY! Complete bull-blam!-. And everyone in the community knows it.

Rage more.

What, do you want assist fractions or decimals? You either get an assist in the allotted time or you don't. I think it was set up the same way in H2 and H3 too (give or take some adjustments). Just because they decide to give the details, you have to get your panties in a bunch?

I'll agree that BTB SWAT needs castration.

I need a weapon.

Why not just have a Team Rifles playlist with SWAT, Pro, Team Snipers and DMRs, and another playlist for regular Slayer and maybe the occasional Classic Slayer and other not-so-serious gametypes like Team Swords?

The first person to get Inclimate Weather will become a God.

EDIT: Take Armor Lock out of Arena, when judging people on skill, just pulling the time out is infuriating. Also add more than 2 gametypes, the Beta's Arena gametypes were fine.

What's bull-blam!- is the Rank Limit.

That must be some sort of sign.

Is there going to be a fix for the Juggernaut custom game options?

I honestly think that would be preferable to the current system.

I think it was set up the same way in H2 and H3 too (give or take some adjustments).
No, it really wasn't.

Cool, can't wait until Campaign matchmaking goes live on the 15th. Now if only there was some word on Firefight Versus.

  • 09.24.2010 6:54 PM PDT

Really happy with the October playlist changes. Really really happy. No SWAT in team slayer anymore, and no more tank on hemorrhage either? Yes please.

So um they aren't going to say a thing on when they'll unlock the remaining ranks and let us max out? Meh. I want my Mark VI helmet. Leonard L. Church look must be obtained asap.

Going ac-130 on it.

Thanks for the update urk. As much as I like SWAT, I'm glad to see it go from the team slayer playlist.

  • 09.24.2010 7:33 PM PDT

Great, a single problem tank gone and armor abilities being tailored for the gametypes in which they are included.

But what about those nearly, if not completely, non-functional neutral respawn points, bungie? It's never fun to respawn in the exact same location as last you spawned, and that's certainly true for anyone who just died there too.

Fantastic update.

Please Bungie, redeem yourself w/ Reach.
Halo 2 and 3 both stink out loud.
In the immortal words of Mr Horse: Halo 2? No sir, didn't like it.

Why on earth are you removing classic slayer? I hadn't seen one complaint about it.
