[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] sawnose [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SEM484X [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] HALO3syourdaddy Wow, seems so weird that Halo 3 is already being downsized =)... Can't wait for Reach![/quote] I agree that it does seem a bit odd.[/quote] It's actually moving to bigger servers, not smaller. But the new servers are *so* much bigger that they can handle both Halo 3 and Reach without a problem.[/quote] I would be interested to hear the specs on these new machines compared to the old Halo 3 and even old Halo 2 machines. With all the traffic and file share activity I bet these machines are just insane!

So since U guys totaly HAVE 2 rok on reach.... and we don't wanna pressure u into taking ALL THAT TIME putting up double xp, when the servers cme back, maybe they shoud be like _allweeknormalxp_ livingdead grifball team throwback team cool maps and, well yeah you get the point here right because, um it also brings YOUR STOLEN MW2 PLAYERS back to halo becaouse iv'e witnessed my freind who is so addicted (like when i was at his house he played with his headset in all day playin solo mw2 with his freinds.... but then the next time i went over, he didnt EVER argue for mw2 (he did 4 destroy all humans though) because the asspect of playing living dead with people you dont know who could be on the -blam!- offenders list, is so much more fun than playing 5 people on custom games.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] LoftierRelic [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Omegus Weapon ODST is getting servers, you say? Are those the same as before used in Halo 3's Campaign, or is it basically going to be the same?[/quote]The servers are used for stat-tracking and File Shares, not for in-game performance. In short, H3 and ODST have always had servers. Must be some kickass servers. I'm assuming Dell. [/quote] Ah, I see. Cheers!

wtf bungie you have a game listed in the top 25 and you are retiring it wtf!! ima get everyone to boycot all of your games until you re consider
-
Can't believe how fast the time blew by me. Feels like, just yesterday I was standing in line at a midnight release and, now I reading the Halo 3 servers are dead and Reach is going to Fall on us very soon. The nostalgia is so thick right now.
-
Halo 3, good times... Will this upgrade improve matchmaking search speeds?
-
ODST is getting servers, you say? Are those the same as before used in Halo 3's Campaign, or is it basically going to be the same?
-
it said it will go to the late afternoon yet its 8 bungie time and i still see no change at all
-
when will this process be done?
-
Well Halo 3 was so far the best game i have ever played on x-box. I made alot of friends, and I want to look back on it every once in a while. But mostly I want Halo Reach to kick Halo 3's @$$ GO BUN7GIE
-
I've very confused with this (poor reading skillz.) So does this mean That halo 3's old matchmaking options will be replaced with halo reach inspired stuff or the matchmaking will be down completely and halo 3: odst updates? like in more gamemodes matchmaking on firefight or what? I'm sorry i'm slow.

nice... new toys are always fun =P

[quote] So, whats going to happen to the old servers?[/quote]
-
woot woot no more not being able to go invis!
-
[b]PLEASE READ BEFORE COMMENTING. Bungie is just moving halo 3 (odst too I think) to the halo reach server. It's not going away! it's just moving to a much better/faster sever that is capable of holding halo 3 and reach without dying in the process. You still will be able to get recon and and vidmaster achievements. After the transfere is done you will be able you do everything you used to again. Just not right now. If this doesn't help plz "Personal Message" me[/b] [Edited on 07.08.2010 8:34 PM PDT]

wao now i feel like very very sad o_O
-
Very nice and cool to know about.

New hardware, eh? Might I ask some tech specs on the new stuff? EDIT: And what's happening to the old stuff? I think you'd probably be able to make a killing on the old servers if you put them on eBay, simply due to the fact that they were the servers that supported Halo 3. Even if you had everyone sign them and stuff, it'd be great. And then you could donate the proceeds to some kind of charity or something. Feed the childrens, you know? EDIT 2: [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Spartan W80 What kind of specs are we talking? What kind of hard drives?(Read/Write Speed, I'm assuming Sata III connection) What kind of ram?(Preferably the model and how much mem total) What kind of processors?(type and amount) What kind of gpus?(type and amount) What RAID config do you have the servers in? And although not a hardware spec...what os? Gentoo maybe? Specs man specs =][/quote] I'd actually probably guess a SCSI connection would be the more effective way to go, what with the connection speeds that are needed. That, and it's easier to upgrade...
