Subject: Bungie Weekly Update: 09/24/10

The Revolution starts with your heart!!!

This sucks, I cant even send Bungie a message saying a problem I have! I went online with Halo REACH today and lost everything, EVERYTHING! It said I exceeded my credit limit, WTF? I had so much credits and was waiting for the scout helmet, but no, it had to restart everything! Why couldn't be like Halo 3 where you can go online and offline with your account?!?! I wished Bungie would email me so I tell them, but I guess they wouldnt care huh? And plus I got the Legendary Edition and it wont let me redeem my codes for the stuff!!! WTF, Im so pissed right now, and Bungie doesnt care!!!!!!!!!!

I love you Bungie.

Chubbism bad! Big Daddy Craig

I'm freakin pumped about the SWAT playlist, but I was hoping for a tweak on the melee's power in SWAT. Halo 3 was one hit kill with any melee. I was really surprised the first time that I ran up behind an opponent and had to hit him twice to kill him, I did not want to do an assasination because of how long it takes. I hit him twice and earned a regular assasination medal. I guess I just want the one melee kill back in the SWAT playlist.


Oh and where are my grenades on the map in SWAT...I've been needing those.

That sounds pretty good, but I'd like to see an MLG mode with only the DMR.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Hawt update, Urk.

Yeah, removing damage bleed is a huge mistake. Where did you hire Josh from?

Then as it was, then again it will be. And though the course may change sometimes, rivers always reach the sea.

Not a mistake at all. The change to the melee system has made the AR spray/melee tactic much less effective, which in my book is a massive win.

Can't wait for the removal of swat from big team.

brilliant!!!!! and FIRST!!! oh wait never mind....

  • 09.25.2010 3:46 PM PDT

I guess I am one of the few who actually enjoy playing slayer dmrs as opposed to slayer pro. Personally I like slayer dmrs because of the AA's, I mean thats what Reach is all about and its also fun to destroy kids with armor lock :D. But to satisfy peoples needs they could just add an Arena Pro playlist and a regular arena playlist :D???!!!

the heroic dlc for H3 came out before xmas of 07 so dont be surprised if we get it before xmas.

  • 09.25.2010 4:17 PM PDT

Soooo, jumping on a bandwagon,(i hope) that says 1250 G, DLC?

  • 09.25.2010 4:44 PM PDT

HALO REACH ROCKS!!

COOL UPDATE URK I JSUT BEAT HALO REACH ON LEGANDARY BY MYSELF.

NOOOOOOOO DONT TAKE BOARDWALK OFF OF DOUBLES ITS THE ONLY MAP LEFT BETWEEN ME AND GETTING RAPED BY THE BAD SPAWN OF PINNACLE OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER. Seriously i played 3 games of doubles today all three were on pinnacle, all three i got bad spawn. (Fyi bad spawn is the one that doesnt start off the game with rockets, sniper, and if wanted a shotgun.)

Wrong. No damage bleed removes all flexibility from altering the weapon damage for customs.

Keep damage bleed and set melees to 75% damage which makes them 3 hit and stops the AR spray/melee tactic just the same.

There are other ways to fix the game, and Bungie chose to simply REMOVE damage bleed, which ruins the game. Just make melee's do less damage. Problem solved.

So dumb. Really poor decision making for Reach. They don't realize the effect no damage bleed has on the entire game. Or don't care.

so just in case anybody wants it brute chieftan
also does anyone know where to get the eiffel tower map?

  • 09.25.2010 7:50 PM PDT


More appropriately, what are you going to do to lift it?

There'll be another time.


I have a feeling it must have something to do with that last, epic final stand at Rally Point Omega. Perhaps a certain percentage of the Reach online community must finish the Campaign or last a certain amount of time while trying to survive.

This ain't no real-world military shooter. This is Halo - true to its roots. This is heavy tech. This is dented steel and sex appeal. This is ballistic boxing in the middle of rush hour traffic with your hair on fire. This is rarely a one-shot/one-kill affair. SPARTANS just aren't made that flimsy. You want to get some? You are going to have to earn it again. Your opponent is wearing a tank.
