Hello,

I have liked halo for many years and have got nearly all the series halo 2(not on xbox live), halo 3, halo 3 : odst and halo reach and have loved all of them. When it came to the time of halo reach being available to be pre-ordered I jumped to pre-ordering the legendary copy early just in case they sold out. For these fans who spent £100 to buy the legendary edition of reach I think they should deserve the blue flames, many people I play with including my self had no idea about being able to unlock the blue flames and only until it was too late, I discovered that you could download a iPhone app to get them. So I think that for the money we have spent on your games, I think we deserve the blue flames, halo made me want to play xbox and Im sure the next bungie game will too but give the people who spent the money for legendary edition or any edition really should get the blue flames too.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

It was clearly advertised...

I'm fairly sure if you had the flames and I asked this question, you'd say this exact reply.

Obviously you are not a faithful member, otherwise you would be on here discussing how you are "Obsessed" with getting every game and jumping straight on, you only came on to rant about it, just go and be lucky that you have legendary.

This wasn't a rant. I was just saying that as a special gift the people who actually bought the dearest edition of the game and didn't have the opportunity to get them I think should. The games are brilliant and have I have changed my friends minds about bungie games and made them want to play a better game than all the other games on the market, halo reach is the best game for xbox in my opinion and I am always urging people to get it if they haven't got it and telling them what they are missing.

So I didn't buy the Legendary edition. Does that mean I should still get all the stuff that came with it?

I did the work of following the site and hearing about the Blue Flames long before they were available, as did everyone else who got them. It's not really fair to them if you were given the blue flames when you didn't know about them at the time.

I believe all people should get the blue flames (except the ones who pirated it), maby it would happen one day. Who knows. Or they could maby let people another chance to get them.

If you bought the legendary edition, you have Orange-ish flames. That is exclusive to people who bought it. OP should be happy.

In jedem system der Macht gibt es korruption.

Det vore klokt att tro att det inte finns några undantag.

I was happy with the Legendary flames and awesome statue, Bungie did an amazing job marketing Reach.

Was all the stuff that came with it not good enough for you?

  • 07.29.2011 5:29 PM PDT

I have the Legendary Edition. We got what we paid for.
you might as well say 'Shouldn't we get all the armors unlocked because we bought it?'
'Shouldn't we get shares in the private company Bungie?'
'Shouldn't we get free burritos for life?'

You're asking for stuff that isn't part of the deal, and never was. If you missed your chance, sorry, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the Legendary Edition of Halo: Reach.

Yes but it is not that special when modders get them for free. I like my flames that I have but it would be nice to get these, Not many people have these flames but most likely if you see someone with them they most likely modded them and not got them the legit way like some people did.

Please assure me you aren't trying to convince us that the majority of people in-game with Blue Flames are modders.

Not blue flames the flames you get with legendary edition

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

Everyone had an opportunity to get the Eternal Flames. Just because you were too late doesn't mean they should do that again. You had weeks to get the flames. It's your lose.

You stole what I was going to say so I will just nod and smile.

I have the Legendary Edition and the Eternal Flames.
I only use the Legendary Flames.

As for everyone who bought the Legendary Edition automatically gaining the Eternal Flames, I disagree. There was ample time to obtain the Eternal Flames, be it with the app or just by activating it through Bungie.net, if you missed out then unlucky. You already have the Legendary Flames that came with the Legendary Edition and they are more exclusive than the Eternal Flames. In my opinion they look better too. You should be grateful that you actually have the Legendary Flames at all and should wear them with the pride that you spent £100 on a game to support Bungie.

I did get it. You missed your chance. Besides the red flames burn stronger.
