Very great update!

Also, can I haz Cliffhanger DL link plz?


I've searched for the map and I can't find a download link. Has anyone found a link yet?

I completely disagree with JoeSKi's approach to a focal point. If you want to set your map apart from the majority of maps out there, then make a great layout. I'm sorry, but cliffhanger has a terrible layout. It's vastly open with skinny walkways and the bases are very close together with a low point that's really out the way.

Again the layout of the map is what makes the map stand out. A crappy map with a focal point is still a crappy make that looks better than a crappy map without a focal point.

I'm disappointed that both of these maps are going into matchmaking because they do a disservice to what can be accomplished in forge.

First!

First time being first!



Nice.



Unlike the map packs of yore, we won't only be offering a playlist specifically tailored for players with access to DLC. The haves and the have-nots can swim in the same pool...

That made me a happy boy.

"When i started this business, i simply had a pencil, some paper, and 60 million pounds"

I am pissed off...so now I (in australia) can't enter the Forgetacular competition because Bungie is scared of getting their asses sued by some smartass dipsh1t. Well F@$& you.

I just forked out sixty bucks for BLEACH! and now you want twenty for DLC? i think not bungLe. Fail.

Great update! Can't wait for the playlist changes :D

If you're interested in recruiting (or being recruited), for matchmaking or gamebattles, please join my group. If you do decide to join please tell all your friends. Thanks in advance.
Greatest game ever.

I'm thrilled about the playlist changes going live on the 19th, and I'm ecstatic that you've finally come through on divulging exactly how it is we are to lift the level cap. You really came through in a big way this week! Great Update!

Last time I checked 800 points did not cost $20, but rather $10...

I'm thrills me to know about the "challenge" to get to the 117 million mark!!!, however, why the betrayal booting(bb, from now on) is going to be disable...I've been using the bb, when some !@#$%^ "kills" me when I took the opportunity of removing a threat in firefight, is just not fair! just because somebody is not able to reload in time and not obtaining the kill, kills me for taking it![b]not fair[b]

Gimme a hooray for the banhammer! It finally made its appearence in this game!
it will be better if the cheaters where reseted to recruit!

Excellent update, nice updates coming soon, except the BB removal!

Those two pics in the Banhammer section are awesome!!!

I'm so glad that a Softkill zones will be added to the tops of the Sniper buildings on Asylum, that was so annoying.

I'm excited to work on the 117 million challenge, I just hope this community challenge goes a lot smoother than Skate 3's community challenge went. Fail! :{

  • 10.15.2010 11:00 PM PDT

Clarification.. What exactly is meant by challenge boosting?
We're not talking about Oni Sword Base commendations are we?
Are you saying that playing a super-powerful custom firefight game to get my 400 kills in a day won't count toward that goal?

  • 10.15.2010 11:03 PM PDT

Sweet

Dam you bungie

Tank Beats Everything!

Well Bungie, now that you've announced that the community has to reach 117 million challenges, you have to make a counter somewhere on the site so the community can keep track then.

I'm curious if there might be something like an armor pack released in the future for DLC or similar. Because I'd like to see the Security helmet from Halo 3 make it into Reach, because of what I've seen of the new Security helmet it looks kinda ugly and nothing like the Spartan in the background of the Firefight menu. Plus instead of looking like the Marathon helmet it looks more like you just ripped off the astronauts' helmets from the Bridgstone Super Bowl Ad. Would also be nice to see more then the same 4 or 5 recycled helmet attachments.

Thanks for fixing the problems with Asylum and Boneyard. I am anxious to play both of these maps again after the update and I hope that these changes make the experience much more fun. Also 117 million challenges? Bring it! I've been doing my part for that almost every day. I actually really like that idea because that actually encourages me to save up the credits I earn with the challenges to buy things like the MK IV for example. Smart idea Bungie.

I am still wondering what is being done about the Name is Blocked problem that I and others are still getting when we try to upload a file to the file share. I have never been banned on any of the other Halo games so im assuming this is a fault considering so many other people have the same problem
