Do you see it? BELIEVE!
 
For those that don't know, "Actual" refers to the commander [numero uno] of whatever ship. So that's the commander/whatever rank he is/in charge guy of the ship.

So you're saying it's not the corporal of whatever in the/on the thing that has the captain of whats its bucket?
 
King of the Hill is a fun gametype, only if the opposing team doesn't constantly respawn by the Hill every time (and no, this is before the enter it).

I still <3 Team Objective/Skirmish, though. :(

Take out grenades and KotH would improve 10-fold.

IGN Halo 3 Interview.

There's more to say on this later, especially regarding the three zero-point "Vidmaster" achievements. There is no gamerscore on the line but there will be a payoff.

We're always looking at ways to further expand and improve the Halo 3 experience, but there are currently no plans for an update to add new campaign content

IGN: When Master Chief is in stasis at the end of Halo 3, does he grow a beard?

Jarrard: Hair growth and cellular activity does continue while in cryo sleep but at a dramatically reduced rate.

Halo 4: Beard confirmed.

The main draw for most will likely be the new achievements. With 10 new achievements and 250 gamer points up for grabs, why NOT go back and play what is still an awesome game anyways?

beat by a stealth edit
 
Damn, seeing all these new achievements has reminded me that I still need two achievements from the original batch. Fucking "Two for One"!!!
 
We've also seen a big increase in custom content and file sharing lately as these features are really starting to hit their stride. The Bungie.net team has been extremely busy, recently launching revamped player stats and profile pages with a major overhaul to the file sharing infrastructure on the horizon. This should really improve sharing and discovering custom content within the Halo 3 community.

Nice. When the game first came out I regularly perused the custom game/map forums, but they were such a mess I eventually gave up. It was really hard to find anything of value.

Rocket Race isn't broken. You just got bunched with a group of retards.

And you got Avalanche! I got that once... fun stuff.
 
Fun Games tonight. I might be on for the TU2 release, anyone else up for Squad Battle during that time? I'll check if there is a spot open. If not, I gain some sleep.

Achievements are now up on everyone's gamercard via Xbox Live.

Just sign into your account on your Xbox, go to "My games" or "Compare Games" and scroll down and you'll see all 30 of them. :)
 
Only 1,800 people in RBTB. I was going to play a round for sentimentality, but I'd probably only get a 5 vs. 5 match which wouldn't be very fun. I guess it's time to pull the cord now Bungie.
 
Dani said:
Going into my gamercard from a game I don't see them, do you have to be on your dashboard?

Not sure, I compared games with one of my friends and saw all 30 of them.

And I played DLC Slayer, got two double kills on Ghost Town, and no achievement. :(

Yeah I think I'd know since I posted the pic. :lol

But now I'm talking about the fact that you can view the new achievements via the Dashboard (as in they're in the game list now) so I thought they could be achieved.

Oh, my bad, dude. lol
 
Looks like we have to wait about an hour or so before the update hits to unlock them.

Speaking of which, anyone here online about that time? Should be fun getting a few achivement.

Edit: The new achivements are appearing in compare games, but not in the My Games section. I think they'll pop up there soon too.

There wasn't a lot in Team Objective, either.

The total count read around 180,000 -- not a lot of folks for Halo 3 online, period.

Is the Red vs. Blue machinima still good?

I haven't watched since Season 3 and I just now noticed there's a Red vs. Blue: Reconstruction that uses the Halo 3 engine because of this image.
 
I'm really disapointed that I'm going to have to buy the map pack just to play team doubles these days. If it was only me who had to buy it, it wouldn't be TOO bad, but it's just going to hurt the population of the playlist, including the friends I play with.

It prolly doesn't make too big a deal for US or Euro folk, but there really aren't enough Aussies playing Team Slayer some times to play games without lag
 
Reconstruction is the only season/series of RvB I could get into. It's very well written and the production values are top notch stuff. I think they can't do any better than that without going animated like in that PAX short.

That says a lot then. I've never played Halo 3, not a Halo hardcore like you probably, and I loved season 1-3. So I'm sure I'll like the new stuff.
