some players have begun to suspect that Bungie's time with the Halo franchise has now officially come to a close. It hasn't.
We are not building map packs for Halo: Reach and we're not working on any engine modifications

For some reason those two statements just dont seem to add up
New halo game

Love the birthday cards and the Chickenpede art is terrifying. The community is really doing great stuff with these art contests.

  • 03.04.2011 5:45 PM PDT

My chickenpede didn't make the update =\

I digress, it was fun to draw. I look forward to recieving a Bungie Beta Tester survey sometime soon.

I don't like how the updates recent have been full of "fluff" news. The only things that have been really relevant at all have been the playlist update discussions and the Defiant Map Pack announcement. Everything else is just generalized happiness and jokes that don't reveal anything or add to any discussion whatsoever. And All-Star submissions. Which is one giant excuse to fill up a BWU with irrelevancy and fluff.

Urk, I'm sorry to say, I am disappoint. When are we going to get actual news again? Like a Title Update on Reach, or talking about your next project you obviously have been working on and are hinting at but refuse to actually say anything about.

I guess I have been spoiled for quality news since I joined Bungie in February 2010, not long before the Beta came out and they were releasing details on Reach in their BWUs. But still, I fail to see the point of talking just to talk and satiate the masses with filler news that will be forgotten by Monday.

New Marathon? Thanks Bungie!

I would gripe if Bungie released an MMO Im not a fan of those

I loved all the pictures! Call me grotesque but I thought they were all great...especially that one of the chickenpede destroying the old fashioned boat in the ocean...awesome!

There were some pretty funny renditions of Chickenpede, congrats to those that got featured and won the stars!

Yay! My chickenpede made it into the update :D

Also, does that mean it's not massively multiplayer after all? D:


Egad, what nao?

My card didn't win - ok, fair enough, still glad I made it into the original update. But to not be one of the 100k to get the email? Lame.

Many of us haven't gotten emails. Urk has told us not to worry about it, so we shouldn't worry about it.

So angry.

First, I find out that Verizon lied to me about the cost of my newly-ordered 25 Mbit down/25 Mbit up FiOS (they said $64.99/month and they're charging me $79.99/month). I can't call them until Monday.

Then I find out that Bungie sent 100,000 Beta e-mails out and I didn't get one. My settings are all correct. I even got the Carnage Report e-mail less than a month ago.

-blam!-

Don't worry about it, man. I didn't get my art featured, and you don't see my frowning.

Keep your head up, and keep trying!

Nice Update, thought I had a chance this week, looks like I'm gonna have to step my game up to impress Urk.

Once again, no mention of armory expansion. It only gets requested a bajillion times every week in the forums and yet with exception to a small accessory at Mythic the armory is capped at General. A little way into Eclipse and you have enough credits to buy the entire armory and yet you'll have over 10 million cR collecting dust by the time you hit Inheritor. How tough would it be create higher profile/priced armory items for the higher ranks, especially when you've still got 15 millon cR to earn after General.

I am a very pestamistic person. I see the glass half empty, even when it's full. Dont expect much from me.
