Subject: Major glitch in Halo 3, any of you ever have this happen to you?

I'm not trying to get a fix for this bug, I just want to explain to those who still play (the most dedicated players) and see if any of them have ever had something like this happen to them before. Note also I have the film of all of this, if you want it I will put it in my file share.

It was in about 2007 in Halo 3 when I was playing around in a modded Forge game that you could play in Custom Games (only because my friends liked having free-for-all "slayer forge" matches at the time). The only difference from normal forge is that you spawn with the BR, and that it is free for all.

We were playing around, killing eachother and just being annoying to everyone else, and one person (I will call "troll" from now on) joined and started kicking ass (this was when I sucked bad at Xbox). One of my friends went AFK, and the spawn he spawned at was on top of a Brute Shot (he also went into oracle before going afk, this probably contributed). Troll came up and assassinated him, and when he spawned he spawned....

...as a Brute Shot. No joke. He had the flying powers of Oracle with the shooting powers of a Brute Shot, and looked just like a Brute Shot. When he ran out of ammo, he picked up a battle rifle and became a battle rifle as well.
I killed him eventually so he would shut up about it, and he died.

This, or anything like it, ever happen to any of you? I just want to know for my own sake, since I have never heard of anything like this ever happening to any of the avid Halo 3 fans I play with, and I have had a lot of friends over the years.

As I said, if you want the video, I can post it in my fileshare for you (actually, it might already be there, but I will make sure if you ask).

I don't see a video, just a picture.

I don't know how; but I'll guess that he spawned with an model-less spartan with oracle movement. Wielding the nearest weapon to him due to not having a weapon when he spawned as an oracle-ish spartan.

I'm very skeptical about this actually happening though.

I'm not making excuses. I never claimed to be good. I have never played any colonel better than me though.

lol at the description for the video, "I killed a Bruteshot can I have recon?" It's pathetic sometimes.

Perhaps I should start talking about "hiw I tottalley lie now sum bunjy employes".

It's not that pathetic, because almost everyone did it; but it still is funky.
