A big part to success in Halo 3 or and Halo game is not getting frustrated when you feel you've been killed unjustly. Stay solid, and realize that its easier for you to come back when the other guys cant control their anger and frustration. Its hard to aim when your an emotional wreck :)

Nice update

Yeah, which picture shows this whole "x" button message? The snowbound picture?

If there's one thing I have learned in working with you, it's that there is always margin for error.

I just saw a quick 8 second video of the Halo 3 alpha played by the soldiers over in Iraq. Probably taken on a cell phone. The graphics look pretty sweet! Can't wait to play the beta. I already have my copy of Crackdown reserved for the Beta release!


What's the link to the vid?

Alpha jerks volunteer to take screenshots and videos with their cell phones.
True story?

They may also have been unfamiliar with this new variation on multi-flag in which the flag carrier is slower, heavier and tougher than the rest of the players. They also may not enter any vehicles , passenger or not.

(Context)

The Mongoose’s primary use is as an objective ferry. While you can use it to branch out quickly and gain control of key areas, ultimately the brass believes that the Mongoose’s most appealing trait is its ability to carry the driver and a passenger holding an objective.

Based on the above two statements, and the fact that we've seen screenshots of a flag carrier in a vehicle, I'd say it's just the game variant.

Yes, indeed Bungie must get the pwning while the pwning is still available. As we have all seen from the result of many a Humpday Challenge, this will be what happens to the Bungie team once launch day has come and gone.

I look forward to being own't by Bungie on launch day...or hopefully during the beta.

And XD at calling people who record/take pictures of the Alpha "Alpha Jerks."

At this point, I am just so desperate to play Halo 3 that I want to mod Halo 2 to make it exactly like Halo 3!

Wow, These new gametype and writeups maybe too much for me to handle too! Maybe I'll just go MOD Halo CE for the PC and make it like Halo3. Seriously though, I wanna see some new angels on these maps and some info on RSS Feeds and such about stats. I just hope to all that is bungie/microsoft that they make all ranks invisable, so it only matches your skill levels, not false ranks for bragging rights. Is anyone over 12 serioulsy impressed with anyone's rank? really? I mean it was nifty to about rank 16 in the begining and then it got old fast... so and so is a 20 oh yeah well I'm a 30!! Well I'm a 40!!! Oh yeah? well I'm a fifty!! LOL dude who cares? I own you anyway...


yes, I admit... *Breaking down* I admit I play too much halo!!!

Don't get me wrong tho, stats rock, but ranks rank (Visiable)

Remember back in the EGM article , Bungie told 1UP that there is A LOT more match customization now. You can put it so the flagcarrier is faster/slower , stronger/weaker , on fire , weapons on fire , no gravity , etc.. So in this specific match they must've put it so that the flagcarrier couldn't enter a vehicle.
