I posted a good question, let's hope it gets answered.

I can't post over there on my work computer, but my question would be:

Can you go into more detail on the thought process behind the playlist-specific rankings? I know you guys take a lot of input from the community, and we've seen that reflected in playlist changes and even DLC maps. What input did you look at in implementing that addition? Something like, "we heard you guys say X, so we talked about Y and decided to run with Z".

Just looking for some insight on the process of developing the addition.

I'd ask for a changelog of all outward facing items in AU2 as well, but I'm assuming that's coming closer to release.

I hope not. I just have to get settled in here and learn what is to be a part of halogaf. Give me a couple days or so, mostly this morning was me just trying to find something to do before my classes started.

I dare you to post a "lorem ipsum sequitar" update that just has the full lorem ipsum text for a couple paragraphs and leave that up for like 15 minutes before putting up your real update.

People would be analyzing that shit like crazy.

"I did a search and it's latin. Very strange, talking about pain for pain itself"

"Maybe it has hidden clues"

etc.

Do it.

Omg, haha. That'd be awesome.

Shit.. what's this? Was Dirtbag's account taking over by an AI? Is it a new ARG?

I bet it has something to do with the new achievements...

It would be so awesome. Do it luke.

The sad thing is that it would totally happen and the bnet forums would most likely explode trying to find out what it means and then implode on itself when they find out it was a joke. Thus destroying the whole internet as we know it.

Does anyone remember the Halo 3 ARG? Some people decided to check Mount Kilimanjaro on wikipedia and found strange words 'supposely' related to the ARG?
 
He should throw the phrase "and to get RECON" in there somewhere. Doesn't matter where.

Crap, looks like I missed my chance to ask a question. :(
I'll post it here for you:

You're not going to give Recon to everyone right? Cause I paid good money for it.

<3
Keep up the good work you saint.
 
I'd like to see more stats that aren't reported on the stats page currently.

I found it super-fascinating the last time we got a bunch of stats. The fact that only 2 people have beaten the single-player legendary campaign with all skulls on, etc etc.

Please have some answers for the bitching about the achievements and maps we have been hearing about for the past week.
They likely won't talk about that stuff until they're ready to announce it. That's like saying, "please tell us about your unannounced project". The answer is, "we will, after we announce it". :p

Despite Don Mattrick opening his stupid mouth about what Bungie's up to, they still can't talk about it. Likewise, they probably can't talk about the stuff that leaked until it's unveiled officially.
 
Yeah, I can't recall a time when Bungie has ever offered up more information on something due to a leak. They may acknowledge that it happened, and speak vaguely on the matter, but I doubt that the leak that occured would for any reason have pressured them into releasing information that they originally weren't planning on releasing today.

Pretty much. I can live with that, though. What keeps me going is the thought in my head that "sooner or later, we WILL know all of this, officially." :P

Yeah, I didn't mean a flow blown reveal, just anything, something addressing the issue.


Seriously Microsoft/Bungie, if this is coming out September, what the hell are you guys waiting for? -_- The H2 MP Map Disc was announced almost 2 months in advance IIRC. :S I know I don't know all the details, maybe there isn't even a disc, but still...

or it won't come out in September or like you said, there is no disc or anything and this is all a part of their plan for world domination.

We don't know that the next map pack is coming out this month, but I think we'll know of one or two other maps aside from Assembly by the end of this month. :D
