Well, see, um. I went to that community Lock-In. And Claude (Louis Wu), the guy that runs HBO, was my room mate in the hotel. And we got talking, and one thing sorta led to another...so I'm going to be doing news and stuff for HBO.HallwayGiant said:
(I was wonding when someone was going to notice that.)
Basically, I'm going to do a news round up each night to help take the load off Louis a bit. I posted that one because he hates posting news about himself.

Funny.
I entered a matchmaking game where everyone was like : "Hey let's do achievements" and everyone was like "Yeah yeah!"
And when I entered the game, I shot the first person on sight, killed him, humped his body, and the game was on.
Muahaha. Can't cheat, losers.

I'm sure he needs as much help as he can get considering the vast array of news that gets posted everyday.GhaleonEB said:

Agreed. Luckily, there are only 4 or 5 that only need to be done via ranked free for all.
The rest can be done both in campaign and multiplayer.

Anyone from Bungie reading this..I made a custom game which seems to be popular with the GAF crew right now..I'd love to play it with someone from Bungie to show how much fun it is, and maybe they can make it a Bungie Favorite?
Insane Hammer King
-Game mode : King of the Hill
-Score to win : 200
-3 points if your inside the hill p/s ,off hill points is -1
-Outside the hill 200% movement speed, inside the hill 2x overshields, 75% player speed, 150% player gravity
-All gravity hammers, no vehicles
-Best played in 4 party's of 2, but you can change it, and it still works
-No friendly firing
Bungie.net hasn't uploaded my picture yet, so I can't post that, but if you look up my profile there is a movie on Last Resort that shows it best. It really is alot of fun, and I hope Bungie will make it a favorite, or at least try it out.
If anyone wants to add me, my gamertag = MMaRsu NL

im having alot of fun with multiplayer, only two things
the way the games are set up are pure stupidity, being forced to play shotty sniper is not my idea of fun, and if i leave i lose exp.
ive played 4 team matches and we have lost every one, i have recieved 0 EXP despite numerous kills, i cant help that my team isnt good enough to win but i get punished for it
edit: yes the online achievements do suck, they should have done something like "earn all medals" or "kill 5,000 players"

Added you MMarsu
Okay, I'm posting this here, even though there is a screenshot thread, because I would like to lodge an official complaint. As you can clearly see, I have affixed a plasma grenade to this fine fellow's crotch/taint region. As such, I expected the announcer to reward my fine play by bellowing, "MAKE A HOLE!" in his saucy yet soothing baritone voice, but no suck commentary was heard, no medal pinned to my chest, and no achievement earned.
Screw you, Bungle. Preorder CANCELED
PS That guy with plasma balls goes by the unfortunately appropriate gamertag knutsaq.
i'm new to halo mp so can anyone help:
can custom games only be played with friends??? i wanted to play rocket race, so downloaded the game variant and map. i went to custom games to set up rocket race, but then how do i make it 'open' for people to join, the only option i can see is for friends and recently played against players.
didnt play much halo 2 mp so not sure how it works...

Thing 1: I'm sick of shotty snipers too, that needs to be fixed prontopainey said:
Thing 2: If you think you can handle it on your own go play some Lone Wolves. 4 Games isn't that many, you'll get on a good team eventually.
For anyone else who was wondering what the FOV differences were between 5:4 (1280x1024 - black bars in this case because the monitor is 4:3) and 16:9 (1280x720):
Widescreen has a lot more detail on the sides, obviously. Pictures taken from around 3.5ft from a 21" flat CRT with a K-M Maxxum 5D with a 50mm lens @ f/4 and 1/20s, ISO 800.

i still dont understand how screenshots work...
so, i take a screenshot, save it, and at any time i'm able to access my screenshots in the theater lobby. i can upload them to my file share, but how the hell do i JUST get them to upload as a high res shot to bungie.net? it should be pretty simple, and as soon as a save them it seems to tell me its doing just that, but my b.net page has never had anything under the high-res screens section, only in my fileshare.
halp meh

Thanks thatBox, I've been wondering of FOV changed in widescreen.
That should make the 90deg FOV complainers happy, they can just put there Xbox's to letter box (you can do that right?)

In no Halo have you been able to kill a fullly shielded player with a single Frag Grenade. Not halo, Not Halo 2 1.0, and not Halo 2 1.1. Seems right in line.
The blast radius is small in H3 though, but in MP you get so damn many it has to be or they would be game breaking. Unfortunately, this kind of screws up Single player, where frag grenades are the rarest, and now probably the least useful
. So sad, because i love using frags, if they were the workhorse nade like in MP that would be excellent.If using the "catch" skull, do enemies also drop more nades?

Here's the spec:
When you take a screenshot and either Autoname and Save or Save As, once you complete both fields of text, one for the title one for the description, then the file uploads to Bungie.net in your hi res screenshots gallery, from there you can put it in the gallery and make it your Trophy Shot.
What's happening right now:
Server load is insane and we put a higher priority on files that are in your File Share than just the screenshot gallery, since the File Share is directly tied to the game, so you can get your screenshots swiftly by doing the work around folks are using here, take a screen, upload it to your file share, et cetera.
What WILL be happening soon:
Taking a screenshot in the game, logging into Bungie.net and seeing the screenshot there near-instantly.
It's just a load issue and we're aware of the delay and working on getting things caught up, right now it might take up to 24 hours to get your screenshot, but that's because there's so many screens in the queue globally.

I'm still bummed about my crappy bonus DVD cutscenes...any chance this can be fixed in any way? I still don't buy what Stinkles posted, is that the real response?
Ok, so I've set up a 4-player Legendary Co-op run tonight. I'm pretty stoked. Just out of curiosity, is friendly fire on or off? Is it an option?

I know this is silly, but give me a bone here. Something isn't right with melee in this game. I don't lag. I'm usually hosting, etc etc. But hell, I haven't been able to melee someone in like, hours.
There has got to be something else going on here. Timing? Its as if my punch is simply ignored, and the enemy's fist slams me across the map (Which by the way, is always fun to watch.)
In Halo 2, I've always used the shoot+punch+punch really quickly, and was pretty damn happy that you made the melee more useful in Halo 3, but whatever is going on is pretty weird.
Maybe I'm just going nuts.

So you mean on one saved playthrough? Like where it says "Continue Solo Campaign" or whatever it says exactly?
EvaPlusMinus said:
i havent really noticed an issue. sometimes i blow it and melee them when their shields are to high still to kill em and i get killed by them, but i dont think thats lag. are you sure your hit should have killed them? positive?
