Thing Three. The least competent CTF crew I've ever seen. They get to our near-empty base with five (5) players, send one (1) in. The one they send in has rockets, but he doesn't use them. The passenger in the Warthog doesn't even bother to get out until it hits the fan. The gunner stops shooting, even though they know we have their flag and are heading back with it. Watch the guy trying to steal our Warthog (for 45 seconds straight), and me knock the flag carrier out of the 'hog, then beat the driver to death before he realizes I'm not his buddy.
Good lord :lol

I played the shit outta it Mr.

I will admit is was a mighty fine game but it doesn't have a thing on Halo 3.
I wasn't talking about you. I was talking to Dax who said it was horrible, which it is not. It suffered from a lack of maps and gametypes, but that's it.

i don't really agree that the game is competely broken, but i think it's sad that a series' with potential to be that game that could be fun and competitive, for everybody, went nowhere for really no good reason.
For Halo 2, at least, it became a nuisance because of button glitches. MLG players used them often in tournament games.

No offense but he has a very good point. Final Boss DOMINATED competitive Halo 2 for several years. Were amazing at H1. Even busted through the Shadowrun circuit a bit.

They are an extremely talented team of video game players and they have sharp quick minds that many travel to see.

They lost because H3 is less skilled base. NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE AT ALL.

/sucking off of FB

I really like any competitive team and player I'm not a FB fanboi or nething.

H3 is an amazing fun game but in terms of skill I would rather be a pro player in H2 that is more footed in pure skill and technical play.

The pro players would disagree.

I just popped in the Halo 3 disc, it asked me to allow for an update.

I assume it's just some small update? Just minor stuff?
I didn't see any such update. Someone else commented on a update a few days ago that no one else had seen. I also get random updates that don't seem to be in line with anyone else.

You're the second person in as many days to note an update in this thread. I just fired it up and didn't see anything. Haven't spotted any chatter elsewhere. Strange.
 
So.....the MLG people are complaining that Halo 3 is designed so that ANYONE can play it? Holy fucking balls! Who the fuck wants to buy a game that is impossible to immediately jump in to? Do they want a separate game just for them or something?

Halo: MLG Edition Guaranteed to be impossible to play

From Beatflux in that thread:

I really hope the TC didn't purchase Halo 3, let alone purchase it thinking Bungie would make it more competitive than it's predecessor. If you kept up on Bungie's development attitude in Halo 2 you would know that the game was adapted so that complete novices from children to soccer moms to firemen could pick up and start killing in 5 minutes.

No wonder people are still scratching their heads as to why the Wii is selling like gangbusters. :lol Video games are supposed to be FUN! WTF is wrong with these people?

My thing has been updating at every game. I've assumed it was connected with the DRM tool.

I don't want to venture too far off the logically beaten path, but I don't see MLG's business model allowing them to fund a game in the foreseeable future.

One BR for Cold Storage is going to be fine, guys. Guardian only has one BR, and we all know how well that plays. It'll be better still with BR starts, but then all of Halo 3 is.

Like shit? :lol
 
I'm not one to complain about every little thing, but that is a pretty weak playlist update for July. They've got a guy dedicated solely to updating playlists and the only thing he changes after an entire month is "skip ____ variant after veto" ?

There's like 14 or 15 playlists and usually only one sees any significant adjustments (Head to Head this time). I was under the impression that playlist isn't even popular? The few times i checked it there was barely over 1,000 playing (during peak hours too).

I don't know about that, Guardian is a pretty good map, it's just better with BR starts. Besides, I think it's a safe assumption that Guardian and Cold Storage are different beasts.
 
Ramirez said:

Naw man, Gaurdian is awesome. I love it even without BR starts.

The only playlist update I want to see is Team Snipers added permanently. Believe

Yes, remove Snipers from every other variant and move it to an exclusive playlist, so the people who want to play it can, and the rest of us never have to touch it again. It still pisses me off so fucking much that it's in Doubles all the goddamn time now.

I agree.
 
Grats Captain Blood on ranking up.

Yep.
 
I agree that there should be a team snipers playlist only because I hate sniping games and by devoting a whole playlist to the gametype, I won't ever have to play it again.

Bungie, great idea having that top room in The Pit. Having no fusion coils up there is genius.

Agreed, although putting fusion coils up there is actually an interesting solution to that problem, short of just removing the spawns up there.
 
Played H3 tonight for quite a while. Approaching Colonel Grade Two. Kind of upset about that. Hopefully I can get a 45 and make Brigadier. Going to be an interesting couple weeks for Bungie/Halo fans. Cold Storage has been announced, Bungie Day is on the way, PAX is on the way, E3 is getting closer...

Now I see why I never get a response from the messages I sent you.:lol :lol :lol
Yeah. I tend not to listen to voice messages.

When you sent me messages earlier, I was hopping on to check for an update (per the last page), then again to do the Live DRM transfer.
