Well the Bungie logo on the bungie.net is changing into the superintendent after sometime. Is this new or did they even bother to change it after E3?

Yeah, it's been doing it since before E3. It hasn't stopped.
 
Wow, GG Bungie.

LTTP time: No Blood Gulch remake? WTF! You could call it Pachelbel's Canyon! Halo 3 could actually have a map with a cool name.

Guardian? Lame
Snowbound? Stupid
Valhalla? What? No.

Pachelbel's Canyon? All over my face.

Nah. In the completely crazy thread that DancingJesus made in the Off-Topic section, another Gaffer(NutJobJim) got his tag changed from "Member" to nothing there at all with this post. Since I didn't even know that was possible, I posted my reaction and that same mod got rid of my "Member" tag.

I feel naked without something there, though. It's a strange, scary new world. :o

Edit: Holy shit, it's back!

Valhalla is such pure perfection as a map, I forgot Blood Gulch even existed. As far as a name is concerned, it's probably one of the best named maps. It sounds cool, matches the motif of the map, and has cool back-story.

I hope you're not making fun of Valhalla as a map, I could forgive you for saying it has a bad name.

Not going to quote the guy's name who posted this, because I don't know if he'd approve of me putting his name out on a site like this. However, here's something you guys might want to take a look at:

So, there is a midship coming along with some other things. ;p
Also, the map names are the same ones as the ones in the achievement pictures. Skulls in MP ftw?

Oh, and apparently he's still missing something called 'LongShore'. Whether it be a map, or something else, I don't know.

PLEASE GOD LET HERETIC BE MIDSHIP. LET THIS BE TRUEEEE!!
 
My first thought is that it sounds legit. If so, holy shit at the leak and I can't wait to play them. If not, well, it wouldn't surprise me much either.
 
Alright so I signed in on another website, and now I'm on Bungie's site where it's asking me to make a profile there... wtf :lol

Edit: Tried my old email address and now it's working. I guess Bungie isn't happy that I switched my email address like 2 years ago haha.

Uh... you should try logging into your new e-mail at whatever e-mail site you use. And try logging onto Live real quick. This sounds worrying.

So if sandbox is what we think it may be -- an outdoor forge-able space, I'd be willing to bet money on nothing short of hundreds of blood gulch remakes by people with the same 'creativity' and open-mindedness for halo 3 maps.

Then you guys can have your nostalgia fits and enjoy the same play experiences you've had for years - and if your lucky, complain about the one or two things that aren't exactly the same.

That reminds me! Once I was signed out of Live and got the message that someone else had logged into my account on another Xbox. I immediately went and changed my password and set a passcode for my gamertag. I kept the passcode for about a week and never had the problem again so I removed it.

It was either someone trying to get into my account or possibly my gamertag was on one of my old friends' Xbox 1.

The passcode isn't tied to your account, it's tied to your xbox.

Blood Gulch/Coagulation is a bad map, I just like the name Pachelbel's Canyon.

Anyways, everyone on here is crying for Midship and the majority of them are not for BR starts. Without BR starts Midship is trash.

I thought I remembered Urk saying this wasn't the case, for 360 accounts at least. There was a thread about stolen Xbox accounts a few weeks ago..

Ugh.

Was not a huge fan of this map in 2.

.....but maybe with 3's difference in pacing and weapons, it'll play better.

Also...Sandbox doesn't....sound like the "wall/blue grid" to me.

Unless you can actually choose which textures you want, which would be amazing.

According to XBL Customer Support, the passcode only exists on the 360 console it is created on. It is account specific, but only on that 360. It's more about parental control and separating account permissions than it is security.
 
You guys really need to make a new thread with all the new information/rumors etc. This thread is a disaster to navigate. It's about time .....
 
Well, as far as original Xboxes are concerned, it carried over to different systems. I would recover my account often on different systems and always had Halo 2 asked me for the passcode.

How does it not sound like the forge map? I can't think of a better name for a map that will let you lay down every piece of the map and build it from scratch. ;)

Wow! The supposed map names could have been information culled from the leaked skulls achievements. How would anyone know the descriptions, size, and internal names unless of course they work for Bungie and if that's the case there's no good reason why they would leak it. The writing style of the descriptions sound spot on, so at the very least they're a good writer if they're trying to fake us out.

I'd like to hear you rationalize how you figure Valhalla is a bad name for that map. Do you think it just sounds bad, or do you have an intelligent reason as to why you don't like it?

For some reason, "endless wasteland" doesn't sound like there's visible grid walls to me. But like I said, that just might mean you can put in your own boundaries.

It's always so sweet to see two friends who can just put aside their differences. Ram never mentions that Hispanics will one day be the majority in America, and Ghaleon never brags about the Spanish-American War... it's so sweet.

okay, what i think what happened is this: awhile ago ghal posted pics of his daughter. i reckon that when dax saw these pictures he fell in love and started to search where ghal lives. finally when he found out where he lived he got his dad to drive their and knock on the door while he sat in the car taking pictures of the house for future fappage. the next day dax stalked ghals daughter and he talked to her briefly: she talked about how she liked pokemon, halo and lazy town and dax knew at that moment that he had to marry her. so he kidnapped her, took her to mexico and attempted to marry her but ghal stumbled in by coincerdence becauseh e was drunk with a hooker. anyway he got a restraining order on dax and because ghal is always on the internet dax cant go on the internet.
