Can't wait for Aerospace to be announced.
I hate seeing all this cool Reach stuff and not being able to play!

  • 12.03.2010 4:26 PM PDT

Well, there was little bits of info, but at least you gave out some hidden codes for some lucky users.

  • 12.03.2010 4:36 PM PDT

Cool update. Really loving the new maps from what I was able to play on them. Especially Anchor 9, I like it the best. Maybe soon I can download the latest Podcast and listen to it.

Urk, you take no pride in these anymore. The last 4 have been nothing but blather and nonsense. Talk about something we as a community want to hear. Not a big black space at the end and some phone wallpapers.


Yeah acknowledge the community's complaints dear sir

- Dragon Ball/Z/GT and it's merchandise are awesome.
- All "abriged" parodies are hilarious.
- Humanity, as a whole, is stupid.
- I have asperger's syndrome
- This is the best used 20 seconds of your life
- Official helper to the Halo: Reach - The Armor You'll Be Wearing This Fall! Thread

Still wondering what exactly "skilled in the art of not playing" refers to.

Hi.

*Sigh* No patch info again. Guess I'll check back next week..

By the way, Tempest is Reach's best map. Well, it would be if you took off dynamic spawns.

Maybe next week you can give us some info about actual fixes or something?

Edit: Also, who should we trust? You or Ferrex? You said no boosting was allowed, while Ferrex said Full-party boosting was fine. Feel free to not answer, as I don't boost, but just throwing that out there that you guys sort of contradicted yourselves a little.

Not so interested in the update as I am in that sweet picture for it!


But yeah. You're so clever urk. If only I had saved my microsoft points.

  • 12.03.2010 4:54 PM PDT

Feel free to post some info about maybe actually fixing the game. We're waiting......................Seriously.

A knife in the night....

I like how Bungie is trying to push away even more players as if the player count didnt speak for itself already. Most of the boosters you are going to chase down now are also some of the most dedicated fans they have. They might do a bit of boosting but they're probably also actually playing the game more the casual gamer.

The problem here isnt the players, the problem is that there's not much incentive without ranked playlists so people treat it like a RPG instead. Modifying content is unacceptable but to full party boost has up until now been ok, employees have even posted that it is since it's not affecting third person, but now you want them gone. I wouldnt be surprised if they got banned on behalf of old actions, that would really take the cake.

Live free, or die epically.

Bungie, though I know its there, I have yet to see by what you mean when you say that all of the maps have been put into rotation, as I sat through an hour and a half of straight Invasion last night and didn't see Breakpoint at all.

Oh, and one other thing. If you guys are going to have a gametype specific achievement, it may help that the gametype currently is in matchmaking and isn't going to go anywhere anytime soon, so that when the game finally does roll out, its not just one stab-happy killfest instead of the actual game, which is actually fun when people play it the way they're supposed to. Just sayin'.

And I am pissed that nobody even bothered to look at my idea. If its Halo, then it needs the Flood in some way.

For those who care, post here:

I'm a little confused. What exactly does Bungie consider boosting? Because if the Oni Sword Base trick and playing a LOT of Gruntpocalypse are considered boosting, then I'm screwed.

Thanks for the update and more importantly, thanks for the podcast Urk.

Nice update, the Noble Map Pack is great!

  • 12.03.2010 5:26 PM PDT

I wear the cheese, it does not wear me.

This account is now retired due to WLID changing. Webteam needs to fix that, seriously >.>

I too give my thanks for finally banning idlers, they were ruining co-op matchmaking.

Great Weekly Update and a fantastic header screenshot - props to whomever did that one!

Also, thank you for doing something about those idlers... although I will miss slowly pushing them into the line of fire and standing on their heads during firefight. Alas, the days of the Spartan Totem Pole will forever vanish into the sands of history.

Also also, thank you for the inclusion of "Praise the LOL" ( www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=7367557&p layer=Sepsis%20II ) in the update... I nearly fell victim to an act of involuntary self-laxation once again.

Also also also, the Noble Map Pack is pretty darn great. I love the look of Tempest and there really ought to be more maps with trees in the future... it just isn't Halo without the vast, rolling vistas of alien worlds.

You guys need to add the forgeable bridge in Breakpoint, to Forge World.
