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.

I think you guys forgot to post what it was. *hits submit, grabs cheetos & waits for reply*

I read the contraversy on 1up.com and I agree with the fact that H2 is framework. You shouldn't really hate any part of the franchise, except pick out the strong points in the game. DEAR GOD, I hope Bungie doesn't hate their own creation. Ya know?

yeah the blue graph of "where people die at" on the map snowbound has a similarity to my friend's recent cat scan. he used ecstacy, and he has a few holes in his brain, just like that picture! woot woot!

Great update.

thats a funky looking map. Also the picture is too quick and looks a little odd.

Anyway swat is nice once in awhile but I'm more interested in what will make everybody happy .

Edit: also Mred if fall damage comes back (which i hope it doesn't) bungie would need some explanation on the man cannon and how you actually survive.

i stoped playing halo online because they droped all the "fun" gametypes. usually me and my friend go on and screw around. and it sucks only having team training, btb, and rumble training to do it in. now all they need to do is bring back team carnage and woohoo!

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 :)

I wouldnt even say one word about the release date if I were you, you should know by now how fast that can change...

Another good update by the way, keep those neat .gifs coming. Their alot better.
I dont see how you people dont understand that kill area graph. Its not that complicated.

The return of SWAT. I'm filled with joy, although not too happy that its not ranked, or atleast 2 versions. But hey, I can't change that so why complain, lol.

Subject: My 2 Cents on H2

Halo 1 was the only game I played and beat repeatedly. Campaign especially on Legendary was what really made the game. You could play it and practice over and over without getting bored and than got out and own your friends in a LAN. H2 is not like that. Somethings have benn changed in MP from what they were in campaign such as the grenade physics, beat downs, and probably a few others I am not aware of. I grind my teeth now when thinking about playing legendary on H2 and often long for the feel of Halo:CE, because H2 wasn't as fun it was just a challenge and truthfully the only reason I even finished legandary on H2 was because I was such a big fan of the first game. Looking back and even now playing legendary seems like more of a chore than a thrill. I can't say that H2 sucks because I still play MP on Live and usually enjoy it, but Bungie definitley missed something the second time around. The release date probably had something to do with it, because the whole game, as good as it is or isn't, feels unfinished - and I'm not just talking about the ending.

I'm glad to hear that they are being critical about H2 and admit the shortcomings of the game. Hopefully this will allow them to see their past mistakes and use that to make greater improvements on H3. I'd rather be able to enjoy a game when I'm playing it than than just beating it so I can throw MY MADSKILLZ in other people's faces. And to be honest no matter how much crap those little flamers talk online the competition is never as fierce as when the person your playing is sittling right next to you in flesh and blood. Whatever the schortcomings of H2, or H1 for that matter may be, they are still two amazing achievements and it's reassuring to know that Bungie means business. And to all you immature impatient flamers who whine about release dates, take a deep breath, and some ritalin, and remember that all good things come to those who wait. I'd rather wait for a game that I can enjoy for years to come than have a game right now that I won't even remember in six months.
