Regarding the new B.net mobile features:

It's great that these features are available, but they don't seem to work on Windows 7 Phones. I'm on the HTC HD7 and I'm having a few problems...

-I can't scroll through top news articles on the main page. I can see only the first story in portrait mode, and in landscape I see the first article and half of the second.
-I can't see any of the Reach pages. I can access the screen with links to screenshots, challenges, etc, but when I click on anything, the page loads for a second, and I'm stuck on a blank white page. Same goes for the careers page.
-Entering my gamertag on the Reach homepage just sends me back to the news page.
-The icons in the tabs on the top-right are getting cut off. Only the top-left quarter of each image shows.

Thank you for the featuring, I really loved this contest and I can't wait to see the final winner! (Great update)

I achieved my Recon armor through the screenshot contest Team Control, not Bungie Day or ODST. 5/29/09
No, Luke! Noo!

Thanks for the update. It was earlier than usual though.

Those birthday cards looked really good.

Yes, please disable weapon pickup in Sniperfight. So sick of watching every single kill get blasted away with a Fuel Rod Cannon before I can even get a shot off.

In fact, I'm sure that's the way it is in any Firefight gametype. Might as well rename Firefight to Fuel Rod Jamboree.

Don't know what's more disappointing that my design didn't even make the update after my folding change or that my design didn't even make the update...

  • 02.04.2011 3:55 PM PDT

Is there any where I can download Bro Slayer, Invasion Skirmish and whatever else now to test them out?

Lots of submissions didn't make it. I'd love to push them all live, but there's hundreds. Hope you at least had some fun with it. I really enjoyed going through them all.

This faith is my state.....otherwise Babylon.

I freaking knew you had thoughts on removing weapon pickup in Arcade. It's funny how you (as in Bungie employees) first state that the b.net community isnt representing the entire population and then plan on removing something just because two people were loud about it in a dedicated thread. It's almost as stupid as getting rid of it in Sniper Attack but not Sniper fight, the latter being where it matters.

I was a huge fan of Arcade just because it allowed me to use secondaries that I normally dont get to use against reasonable enemy health. Without the weapon pickup ability it's going to come down to four different types of rocket fight and one for melee weapons. Are you deliberatly trying to make the game as static and stale as possible? What's wrong with being able to use different weapons and especially in gamemodes where the start wespon probably is the most powerful weapon in the game anyway? Does it matter if I choose to use a needler instead of a rocket launcher?

Dude, remember Bungie's recent rule of thumb...?

Balance.
Yeah. That's why it's all kinda gone to hell.

I agree with u whole heartly, i understand if its four ppl and you got some1 ruining the fun for everybody, but who gives a -blam!- if i ruin my fun maybe thats what i'm trying to do. Maybe i want to see how far i make it with just useing a GD needler.

And which ever one of your ALL STAR TEAM decided to -blam!- over Mulit-team in the ass THANK YOU VERY MUCH. You have now just left me with a buggy ass Living Dead. AWESOME

I did have fun making my noblepocalypse card then making it again after reading it was being folded. Submitted Monday then from work on Thurs after making adjustments for folding. I was worried id be disqualified for the first entry, but it really was fun. just like the emblem contest even though the final game system showed it would look like a women private so ultimately never made it in game... I'll enjoy the rest of all stars and submit every week.
