Halo PC keys connected to something in Halo Reach?

Hey, forgive me if this is the wrong forum, but I'd love to get a response from Urk if possible. We've been told many times over the last year and a bit, that our 25-digit Halo PC keys will unlock something in Reach (I'm thinking probably something similar to the Halo 2 emblem thing). Well it's been ages now since we've had an update on this, and whilst I'm cool with whatever it is being a surprise, I'm a little suspicious as to maybe whether what it would've been was cancelled. So, can anyone tell me if our Halo PC keys will come in handy for something with Reach (not implying that I/we would throw it away lol)? :) [b]Note from Sawnose:[/b] Whoa, people! My PM box just exploded after replying below. I can't field questions on an individual basis, and there are getting to be too many posts in this thread for me to read everything. The answer: wait and see. And don't try and buy it now, because the list of valid keys was locked in May to those already used, to prevent us from being overrun by keygenners. A few more weeks of patience, and we'll start validating keys, PC and Mac. The reward is a small visual thing in-game, similar to what we promised for Halo 2 players. Please self-police this thread by pointing people to the main answer: wait and see. [Edited on 07.27.2010 9:03 PM PDT by sawnose]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Interstel Funny but didnt someone just a couple of pages ago prove that a working keygen existed? I think deviating from the list of people who ACTUALLY played as of May 26th is unfair to those of who actually put in hundreds of thousands of online playtime hours. Interstel[/quote] You can all stop with the privilege garbage. You are not entitled to something because you played an inordinate amount of one mode of one version of Halo: CE. The deal was "owners of Halo for PC". The reason Halo: CE for Xbox is out, by Bungie's own admission, is that verification of copies of the console games is a logistical impossibility. The May 26th restriction was due to the possibility of unofficially generated keygen keys messing with the process. It never had anything to do with cutting out people who purchased the game after that date because they were too new and you did not want them in your imaginary club. Here's a story about me: I bought every Halo game after CE day and date of launch, and Halo: CE was maybe my second or third Xbox game. Bought Limited Halo 2. Legendary Halo 3. Limited Halo Wars. I happily display my scale Mjolnir Mark VI helmet on the shelf above my monitor. I've got all the novels. I've got a complete set of bagged issues of Halo: Uprising. I've got the hardcover Graphic Novel and all three hardcover comic compilations. I felt screwed like a lot of Halo: CE for Xbox owners, but I understood the reasons and didn't complain. Then Bungie gave us the opportunity to hop on the boat, and while I know all of the -blam!-ing and moaning from you guys here isn't going to change their minds, that you would even attempt to take this away from people in my situation is abhorrent. The Weekly Update says all legit keys are in, no cutoff date (yet). You're not going to change this by complaining that you've "earned" this more so than others; it was never even about that which you're telling yourself it is. Leave it alone, all of you.
