Ok first of all, VidMAsters aren't they way you deserve recon. Bungie awarding you is.

First of all, I want to make the point that this is a piece of virtual armour you get in a video game. Many of you seem to be losing sleep over this, do reassess your priorities in life. Halo 3 is almost half a decade old now, back in the day it was YOU who were the ones demanding that Bungie release Recon to everyone.

The effort we put in with the VidMasters isn't now invalidated as so many of you are whining about; think back to when it was announced that the VidMasters would give people Recon, nobody who already had it (or at least, very few people who already had it) were complaining that others were getting it. It was, yes, the FANS who were complaining that it was becoming available because it would "lessen the importance of those who were given it as a gift".

-blam!- please... These things happen, get over it.

The game is now almost 5 years old, it was one of the most popular games on XBL up to 2010 and has sold millions of copies. Chances are, many of you don't play it anymore, you're too enamoured by other games on the market; but to the few that do still play it (like me), are you seriously that fickle to get worked up about a piece of armour that's already available to everyone?

What you call "the real work" was from 2007-8 where fans would have to break their backs doing ridiculously awesome things for the community or winning tournaments, if you don't have Recon 3 years on from when it became so widely available then do you really deserve it? No. But you're getting it anyway so there's absolutely bollock-all reason to complain.

don't I remember this from somewhere?(scroll till his post)
Third, you posted three times after the description OP, thats bad.


There was another person who was posting in reply. Apparently he posted something in the wrong thread and was blacklisted, so his posts disappeared. Please note that that was the occurrence.

Oh ok, sorry.

'Deserve' is subjective and irrelevant, the VidMasters are how you attain Recon and therefore have earned it by accomplishing the set perameters.

I can't attend but... I don't even have recon. But I am still turning down this recon. What a cowardly way to obtain something others have worked so hard for... Good job 343.

There was no point. I remembered it and linked it.


When I said 'deserve' I was referring to what the others said.
As the OP said he would help us "deserve" recon.
Also the whole topic is about earning the VidMasters, even though we are getting recon anyways. Therefore in a way, it is helping us deserve recon, making the word 'deserve' relevant.


The two topics... both about one thing, but dicussing different things about it. That wouldn't necessarily be the same topic. The first was about your thoughts on the topic. This one is about earning the recon armor.

I, personally, worked pretty hard to get my Recon. This is also the first I heard of 343i giving it away. Does this anger me? A lil' but at the same time, I got my Recon when it mattered most. In the prime of Halo 3's life. What's it matter now if the people who play, but there isn't enough people to pull together to get it for themselves, get it for free now. When do they get their free Recon anyways? I personally, had my Halo 3 avatar with my Recon Helmet and Katana before Bungie finished it's transferring of Halo Data to 343i, so my Halo 3 Player Model sports my Recon. Another way that I get to show that I dedicated time and worked pretty hard to get.

I don't know, maybe I don't see why it would matter this much, after so much time has passed since Halo 3 was relevant. *shrugs*

Players of Halo, refrain from being rude, and have fun playing games with friends.

If you want to join us I the games this weekend, please send me a friend request. I can not check my thread very often. As I said before, please send me a friend request.

EDIT: This is a bit irrelevant, but I am getting Halo 2: PC so if you want to play, message my Bungie account or gamertag (Onyx Leviathan). Thanks.
