I think making swat unranked sucks, it was a great gametype and it showed true skill on the reflex part of gaming. But of course if that certain group of people don't like it, its not fit for ranked gaming. I won't name any names but I played against every level of player and against teams of so called 35s and up and dominated them, so is it that it lacks playability and integrity or is it that it made all so called high levels including MLGers look incredibly bad. I just wonder whats the real reason, I mean have you played snipers, its the same thing execpt long range, the only difference being snipers is still ranked when it should'nt be any more than this should be. I mean some people favor snipers and some swat, I like swat for the fun of being able to mow a whole team down in one clip, like some people in snipers can do.
I guess I just want to know why swat is a joke matchmaking while boring snipers remains ranked. And yes snipers is super boring when nobody gets to the kill limit but only gets enough to win then camps, which hapens in every sniper game I have ever played in

Oh and for the record I am not a bad sniper .I just like fast paced games, not long dragged out boring standoffs. Oh and team hardcore sucks too.

The kill zone map made me think back to relic ( I play lots of gears these days ) and how if you post up in back on the gost side your chances of staying around seemed to increase ten fold. Snowbound looks similar in this regard, I wonder if the terain caters to full map sniping from back there like Relic did?

Glad 2 c swat is coming back. the next great thing u guys can do is bring back muti team. the next best thing after that is fix matchmaking. I mean realy fix it, or try 2. small things like if u comit suicide lets say 5 times in a game its an automatic boot. Feedback should be updated Even though its part of the game Their should be a "bad gamer" feedback. 4 all those idiots who run the flag the other way throw the bomb on top the base etc. a certain amout of bad gamer feedback puts u with other bad gamers or your respaun time is extended for a certain period of time. More should also b done on the players who curse say explicit words, threats, racial comments etc. Set up a program that automatically monitors voice. I could go on and on about the cheaters, the laaaaag, etc ....................but keep up the good work i know u guys at bungie mean well ..and are working at it.

Lots of discussion at HIH about the new "feature". Here's what I thought:

Maybe something to do with the sword. But he did say "feature" so I have a feeling it isn't a weapon but maybe something to do with a weapon. They say "big" alot so I think it's hinting that whatever it is, it is something phisically large. Now what could that be? A huge weapon? And if it is a feature, I think it has to do with the sword for sure, so maybe you can lunge farther with the sword? That would be awesome for us AND for mlg! Maybe some way to do something like the rocket lunge. You could get into something maybe or pick up a special power up and....wow that's a good theory I just got! Maybe there will be another power up! Something that enhances all of your weapons! Your sword lunges farther, your rockets have a more powerful blast (also good for tricking), and SMGs fire faster! I like that! Anyways, that's my theory (or theorys).


Quoted from the "Weekly Update"

Bigness. Personified.

Um. I just got asked to check out a new feature for the Halo series. And I nearly pooped my pants. Like all miraculous features, I asked what the percentage chance of it making it into the final game are. You’d be surprised how accurate those estimates are. This one, I got a plain old “100%, no worries.” Tyson downgraded that to 99%. Let’s just say that it will make the folks at HighImpactHalo fill their drawers. And the MLG boys will sweat blood with excitement. They will all still moan at me about how we nerfed the pistol from Halo One, but this new thing will at least cheer ‘em up for a few months. Or years. It’s that big.
"End Quote"

NO offense Bungie, But you did NOT "NERF" the Pistol from Halo 1, YOU COMPLETELY DID AWAY WITH IT! Your BS has to stop somewhere and you need to give your fans something! And I'm not talking about your Halo 2 fans either!

Please do Not Screw Up again !

Did anyone see the heading at the top of the browser that bungie put up the other day for like what seemed like 20 minutes? I cant remember exactly what the saying was but it was something like: "Its 7his, its 7hat, and a little more of 7hat". The actual saying was nothing like that, but they had the three 7's up there in place of three of the T's. 7-7-07... might be a hint of a release date. Or I am just an idiot and imagined it since I checked back like 20 minutes later and the heading was different.

Hot diggity! Unranked SWAT!!! <3 I love Unranked SWAT, its less competitive and more... fun! Let the Killtaculars flow like wine! :D

I really want to know what this "new thing" is, that will "get the HIH community excited" ?? So I'm guessing it's something that will be entertaining to campaign tricksters and glitchers? I cant wait to see what it is. Some kind of new skull maybe? Possibly one that makes vehicles invulnerable for nade launching? or maybe there will be a skull menu to choose from all of the skulls you have unlocked in the past as opposed to collecting them every time you play?

I wonder... hmmm
