Bungie can accept different ideas though. Lets not forget that this is us, the customer, that they're listening to. Why else would they try and fix modding? Because we wanted it, and cheating all togethor. Why else would they release those updates? We wanted it to happen, we told them our 'ideas' to make the game better, they listened, and accepted them. MLG anyone? Now, if everyone of their fans (us) hated say, headlong, it'd probably be tooken out of matchmaking. So again i don't see how they can't accept our ideas.


I understand what your saying but there is a clear line between playlist updates and including a new weapon in the game that a fan made. All the things you listed were indeed fan-suggested--except stopping modding..thats kinda obvious. But playlist updates and changing maps on xbox live is not the same as releasing a product with fan-ideas in it. Playlist updates are all done through bungie on there computers are the actaul thing is filtered down to everyone via xbox live which is a medium. The actaul idea never leaves bungie you just received it through xbox live. Its kind of a hard concept and I don't think I illustrated it well but that is the idea.


So you're saying if all of the millions of fans told bungie they wanted a plasma uzi bungie wouldn't try and make one? If all of those fans said they wouldn't buy another halo if it wasn't in there, bungie wouldn't take the idea? I call bs.


Actually it's true. They make it there game before they make it the fans game.

Right--they fix modding and all because we wanted it, but also because it wasn't the single idea of one person. It was a community idea. If every single person in this site said "give us a jetpack," I imagine Bungie would put a jetpack in halo 3.

Not to mention, modding is a serious problem. Even without the community asking, Bungie would have gotten rid of modders.


modding was a serious problem and was due to no protection in the xbox...bungie had to fix that anyways. As to your jetpack comment it really doesn't matter if the community demands it because when the accept it into the game they get sued and they don't want that. Achronos who is the webmaster of bungie.net and works at bungie has actaully said the exact same thing too.

It has been said, Bungie does not take Halo 3 ideas. Final. You all have been tricked if you think your Halo 3 ideas have been submitted. You were lied too.

You don't need a patent on an Idea. It's called intellectual property.

I'm not saying they completely ingnore there fans in the creation of the game. I'm saying that group out there are tricking you into believing that if you join there group you'll see your idea in halo 3. No group will have that kind of majority of people that actaully play the halo series. About 1% of the Halo playing population that plays halo visits bungie.net so any group that spams your PM box with these advertisements is lying.

So if i say i'd want to make a game where little girls run around and you can shoot them all, and somone made that game, i could so him/her? Are you serious?


Err no, since that game has been made.

You would need a concept map for the game to become your intellectual property. Obviously there is some things that can't be yours, like words.

And how would they get sued? By who? He didn't put a patent on his idea.. This is idiotic.


Jeeze I'm studying to be a lawyer and I know what intellectual property is. Any idea that is transmitted to the internet and visible to the pubic is automatically copyrighted to you patent or not. You couldn't even take out a patent on a idea for a video game that you didn't make...now thats stupid.

So, when I said that having just the basic Idea of having a girl shooting something wasn't enough, I was correct. It is to vague of an idea and anyone could come up with it.

But say you had something like, a girl who was 5 foot 2, with black hair, shooting white and black stripes rabbits from australia would be enough to consider it your intellectual property.

This is very off topic for this post but that screenshot was posted months ago and was offically said to be false by bungie. What does that have to do with groups PMing people to join there group under false pretenses?

Ya, Fan ideas don't get taken into an in progress game.

If someone says they can get it into Halo 3. there wrong.

That's retarded. Anyone could still think up what you said.



Nobody said the law had to make sense but its still law. Besides the point intellectaul property can't be claimed on things that have already been though of. Only new ideas which is what these groups are trying to get included in Halo 3 and that is one of the reason they can't and won't be accepted. Anyone in this sort of group should quit becuase its pointless and they lied to you.

Remember theJoin THis Group button you pushed to join it.

It changes to a Leave This Group button once you do join.

so it's in the same spot.

..Actually, words can be stolen in a sense. I mean, just take a look at book plagiarism.
