I have a video that pretty much sums up what Bungie vs. the World was all about. Unfortunately my points don't respawn until the 11th but until then, I'll toss a link up if you wanna view it the old fashion way.

how does that happen. the creator must have done it on purpose because the default timer is 30 sec (i think).
 
Roger's Recon Hunt Solution

I did this because when you lucky xbox having fuckers were playing halo and i actually got it right. i dont think i was in the top 5 (i saw it a little to late i think) but it was fun. and i might be one of the people chosen at random.

Lmao. I can't imagine what the other team was thinking.

I answered this after about 3 hours of it going up and got it right. I really doubt I was in the top five, but I'm hoping for a random prize
can I haz tshirt?
. It took a while, but there was eventually an "aha" moment.
 
When using a 48 hour code, you can't have Guests?

As in 1 person on an Xbox has the 48 hours of LIVE, and another can't join guest like a regular user?

Just checking before I use another one...

Not sure about that, but IIRC you can only play social on one of those. It would be easy enough to check though, just plug in a 2nd controller. Also, be sure that you have the Heroic Maps and Cold Storage DLC downloaded. They are free.

No HDD sadly.

And when I checked before it said one of the account didn't have LIVE permission/access even though I picked XBOX Guest (Xbox LIVE).

Just looking for feedback to help improve it more so.
that was the map i most wanted to play on - yet with only 39 games played (roughly 1/3 were on Foundry) it never came up

the day was an eye-opener for me and will go a long way in preventing me from making the same mistakes i found on several maps

some of the better maps like Pivotal and Reminiscent had a natural feel and one could adapt to their layout very quickly - on Pivotal i went directly to the lower path that leads to the upper area without prior knowledge, i instinctively knew it was going to be there

other layouts had me scratching my head long after the game was over - on one map i felt lost at all times and had to fully rely on my hud for objective directions

with the day fresh in my mind i have almost totally revised the base areas/ starting spawns of my next map so that a single glance will be all that's required to fully understand the floor plan (no it is not a Grifball court)

Also, I had fun on Ber Ber Creek dude - quality forge-work there.
Oh yeah, I really wanna thank the AJ crew (and anyone else who may've been playing) for playing Ber Ber Creek over and over again to get me Atlas films. I have a multiflag, neutral assault, and team BRs ready to be submitted.

The only way I could posit this happening is he set the power drainer minimum above default. So just like how many do the same with grav lifts to make sure they're always there, the creater (accidentally?) did the same thing with the drainer. He also set a box in the corner of that base to a delayed respawn and Coco P Joe was crouching there when it spawned so it shoved him through the floor. :lol

Butane123 said:
Any specific reasons why, or just not the type of map you really care for?

I should preface this by the fact that I was getting donged on and lost the only match I played on it. I'm just not sure about the teleporter system mechanics. I'm surprised my team didn't get spawn trapped even though we kept getting killed though which was my main concern going in to a map like that, props on however you managed to avoid that. Really do need to play more matches though to give you a proper breakdown.

Wait was Neosho the map with the 2 teleporters on the sides that lead to each base?

Played 1 game on it against some trash talking 50's and out played them. I think Merg was the perm "guy behind teleporter" on our team :p

Only thing against it was that it was TOO long. :p

I don't know who those guys are. If they were pros or semi pros, I'm sure KevinRo would have pointed it out.

I see you guys got man handled though lol :P
Dong wise, no not really.. but flags yeah..... :lol

Hey, I was on the phone half the time, I found out some bad news...

ANYWAYS, the fat verizon bitch came by today :) This is my new connection at the house I'll moving into for school coming September:



ENJOY NERDS WHILE I DOMINATE THE WORLD WITH THIS CONNECTION
 
Nutter said:
:lol :lol

Check out my post regarding connection speeds. Speeds do not mean shit. :p (at least for me : ( )

The only thing I can think of is your Xbox's host connection was ruined by a previously worse connection? perhaps a certain # of quits, I don't know.

I did post a thing awhile back showing when you buy a new xbox you get host, for this reason a few pros buy new ones every couple months...(host emulates lan better for better practice to the real thing)

It's been a while but I got cheated again :(

I can't wait until that shit stops.

Edit: Just got cheated again by a different group of guys. This really sucks. I quit out so I don't have the bnet link just yet. I'll post it later though.

Cheating at high levels. Reminds of Halo 2. :p

But then again thankfully it is not as rampant.. Also do you report them for cheating?
I hope bungie actually bans these guys *if they are cheating*
 
Vhfive, Bungie said that they got 438 right answers to the Puzzle. I wonder how many people they chose to award?

I just bought some Ovaltine. This shit better live up to the hype.

no recon for me :(

good puzzle though i enjoyed figuring it out
 
Just played against the first round of cheaters that I've played on XBL. We're about 5 steps from capping our first flag and the screen goes black (something is obviously being done by the host to mess up the connections) so that the flag is returned to their side and we don't score.

Also, my brother just got a Killtrocity in ranked Shotty Snipers (playing around level 45s):

Yea, the puzzle was fun. I'm too lazy to go check and see if I've won. I may get on Halo later and check.

That's pretty good. I'm only to level 30 in Snipers and the games are already starting to get difficult. I heard that 40+ it's impossible.

Today I've been routinely going +8 in 40+ Snipers. Just give me the damn 50 already, Bungie.
