Recon is most likely going to be another fad and die out quickly.
Besides, I only really wanted the helmet. Rogue and Recon are my favorite helmets.

lol it's been a fad from the beginning. I never joined the fad though. I did get Recon armor though since I also wanted the achievements, but I never wore it. The armor I've been wearing for the past 4 years in Halo 3 has always been Hayabusa with the Katana Sword. In fact, I remember back when Halo 3 first came out, Hayabusa and the Katana Sword were very rare and it was very cool to wear it back then. The katana sword was pretty much like Recon back then. But once everyone got it, the armor was considered noobish. I stuck with it though cause I knew most Halo 3 players just go along with fads. Soon, if not already, Recon will be considered noob armor.

Earning Recon isn't that hard...it's called Vidmaster Achievements, it's a beautiful way for the Road to Recon

It was either that or nobody can ever unlock it again because the button that gives it to you is on this site, it couldn't be moved during the transition so there was the choice.

Like it matters anyway, it's a piece of digital armour in a video game...

Well, they might as well just give out the Bungie chestplate for flaming helmets. What's the point of keeping it from people anymore?

Also, I just noticed they also made Halo 3 fileshares free. Is this a sign that they could be putting an end to Halo 3 soon? Are they unlocking everything in Halo 3 so we can have one last run before they shut everything down like how they made all the DLC in Halo 2 free before the end?

I believe lag and also it might be annoying to gameplay?

Is this a sign that they could be putting an end to Halo 3 soon? No, I doubt it. It would be premature to turn it off before Xbox 360 servers are all shut. So we probably got one and a half to three more years of Halo 3 online.

Also, they said after they finish Halo 4 and get the new website up with Reach fileshare support they will try to bring back H3 stats. They are still updating them behind the scenes because on waypoint your KD ratio and games played update. I'm not sure if they actually have the history like bungie saved. Would be great to see my perfections and medals update, but right now it isn't in their priorities.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

~Long Live Halo 2
Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

That's falsely assuming the vidmasters are difficult.

That causes an incredible amount of lag. It is a terrible idea to try and carry out.

Reach's is also free, I believe, and it's because Bungie Pro (the service for the increased File Share) was discontinued. So MS/343i decided to go ahead and open it up for everyone. Halo 2's maps were free for a while before Microsoft cut Live support for all original XBL games. Remember that it wasn't just Halo 2 that went under, it was just the only one that had a decent amount of people playing it.

EA frequently shuts down the servers for a lot of their games after a couple years or so. I believe Sega does the same as well.

Well in that case, Microsoft should also make all the Halo 3 DLC free. They've already made a couple map packs free, why not just make the rest free like they did with Halo 2?
