ok firs of all i love the game(in fack im working on a gamedesiner carerer in high schoo right now) I just have a few sugestions for h3 first I think it would be a good idea to make some more specific play lists ( team snipes,infection ,ect) more costomizable armor(boba fett,more intersting armor)and be able to change the legs and stuff) remake the old maps(i honestly dont care if the maps stay the same ,like having a halo 1 map with no changes enven in graphics) id also work on the mele range (making it longer) and maore of the maps in machmakein (sand trap with team slayer or making a big team slayer ranked) but over all you guys did a realy good job(how do you make crates lvitate,i can maker power ups lavetate but not anything elsw?) i realy enjoy the game

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] lithid whats the deal with the melee? it almost seems like the guy who gets the first hit in most of the time loses. like the beatdown is countered and you're sent flying 50 ft. is this a gravity glitch, or just for embarassment? also, sometimes i notice people lunge from great distances, other times no lunge at all. [/quote] Agreed! What's up with this counter melee business? Just when you think you have 'em with half a shield left to their NO shield, your melee does nothing and theirs counters it and obliterates you. Needs fixin' quick!
-
Will there be new armor downloads as well as maps? Will SPI Armor (as seen on the cover of Ghosts of Onyx) ever be added to the game? That seems to be the armor everyone was thinking would be in the game and wanted, as it's really the only SPARTAN armor other than MJOLNIR that's been somewhat canon in Halo.

Hey bungie, I have a few questions about achievements and things of that nature. First off, to get the Marathon Man achievement, do I have to access the terminals on Normal or above, such as the Skulls? I have already done this several times, but I didn't unlock the achievement. (by the way, the terminals are an interesting read, props to whoever wrote them.) Second, how the hell do you expect us to get the Sword achievements? I mean, There are hardly any maps at all with a sword on them, and whenever I get lucky enough to play on a map with the glowy son of a -blam!-, someone else is always using it! I really want that elite armor, it looks awesome, but you are asking for more than I can achieve for it. Third, what are your recommendations for getting the meta-game achivements? What skulls shall I put on, and what difficulty, etc. The only one I was lucky enough to get was the Tsavo Highway one, with a lot of skulls on. Now onto some different questions. How do I make flaming heads in player traits? I mean, I wanted to make the Zombies in my infection gametype look like Ghost Rider, but I can't find an option for it! I think that's about it, unless I find something else. Wow, I just now noticed that I have used like 1000 characters, better stop now, I guess.

You can't. - Why does Snowbound have a forcefield wall where grenades can explode through? Check my saved film entitled 'wtfbungie'. GT: mrworthless - Where is our custom games list? You promised Bungie... - Why is matchmaking so slow? Even for fast net users... - Is there a plan to remake Lockout. Guardian sucks. Badly. - Please please please take Construct out of matchmaking (ranked at least). PLEASE! It sucks so hard! I hate it! - Why is there no clans? - Why is Campaign so short even on Heroic / Legendary? - Can you please take the Mauler out of ranked. It is the new noob combo. 1 bullet + beatdown = instant death. - I've noticed some bullets and some beatdowns don't register. What gives? - Why is the special disc included with the Collectors Edition so short? - I left Arbiter behind in the last level but somehow he automagically appears in the cutscene. What the? That's about all for now.

When is HALO 4 coming out? and...can i preorder it now?
-
i dont know if this will work but i found out that if you span a permanent grav lift (scenery) and place a powerup on it (so it dosent fall to the ground)then swich to spartan mode and pick it up,then wich back to moniter and remove the grav lift it will respan in the air and stay there(if it isnt a power up i found that it falls) i hoped i helped

why is it that when you get lagged out of a game you lose exp points

Machinima makers are dissapointed. Why do we have to do a crazy finger breaking combination in order to lower our weapons? And why OH WHY can't we do this on Xbox live? Explain!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] General Anubis [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] jasonillig Question: I seem to get BS'd a good bit when it comes to me vs another guy, both with AR, we run up shooting, then both melee. I swear I melee first, but sometimes I win out, sometimes the other guy does.... question is, is this situation a coin-toss or is there actual millisecond-differences between the times we both melee'd.[/quote] I feel your pain, ALL THE TIME! I almost never win at melee, and I know I am hitting it right at least some of the time. Also, more wide open flat areas on future maps. my friends and I love to play chicken in warthogs, where you have to knock people out and run them down to score. we need some flat lands for that.

Why doesn't Halo 3 have dedicated servers? Why can't you rewind and fast forward in a saved film that you played with a guest? I don't want to upload it just save it to my console.

How do we access the recon armor?

How is it possible that I got a double kill melee with one hit? Does this mean its possible to hit through two or more people? Or is it because XBL uses UDP which means no guarantee that packets arrive in the proper order and gave me somebody else's kill in addition to mine? Why is it that in MM nobody is around, I die, then people appear and I hear/see shots fired? Are they glitching/cheating with modded Xbox360s or is this another case of XBL and UDP packets arriving out of order. Why not use UDP for LAN play and TCP for Internet play? Why are you not using IRig to create fair play and help expose cheating? (its a great way to achieve network synchronization with little overhead) BTW, I like Guardian better than Lockout. I could not find Jason Jones in the credits for Halo3. Does this mean Jason left Bungie already? Like two years ago?

My question deals with the actual stipulation of the Human Sniper Rifle. What is the difference between the one in Halo 2 and the one in Halo 3, officially? I mean I can tell the difference when I use it in a game, but it would be interesting to hear the official reasoning behind the reformed skill-scoper, considering it's MUCH harder to use in this installment. It's not that important, I guess, but it just would be nice to know, considering my friends and I get into squabbles over what's different and what's the same, especially dealing with the long-range weaponry. Thanks! Oh, and congratulations on making one of the best (and most anticipated) games in [i]history[/i]--All Hail Bungie! (Rah! Rah! Rah!) [Edited on 10.04.2007 7:47 AM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Ikki Fenix Where are the brute pistols? Where is the specter? Why can't you have the warthog that carries 6 passengers and is it comming in the future? Can you remake all of the Halo 1 and Halo 2 maps for DLC in the future? Is Halo 3 really the end? [/quote] [b]THE END??? DID YOU NOT WATCH THE LEGENDARY ENDING??? THE END OF THE STORY FOR HALO MAYBE, BUT I BELIEVE WE WILL GET TO FILL MC'S SHOES AGAIN ONE DAY!!![/b]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] masterchief11685 Will there ever be any explanation of the extra scene for the legendary ending? I've been going crazy trying to figure out what it means/portends.[/quote] maybe its the onyx sheild from from the last book? and is that the master cheifs ship at the very end going towards it?

Why' with 11 maps do we only play like 4 of these maps on Team Slayer Ranked. I still am yet to play Last Resort on anything except shotty-snipers. I would like bungie to correct this. I know that sand trap would be a little to big but we would still like to play it. Vallhala is only played on team slayer on shotty snipers also. you dont see epitaph on team slayer. there are some maps that should be on here that are not. Please Bungie Fix This. i have played almost 250 games so far and more than half or team slayer and im getting to the point were it just cant be luck of the draw.

Does Jason Jones still make a mean Rhubarb pie?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] gutlesswarrior13 B. Gulch, Coag... Vahalla? Why the heck isn't there a true remake of B. Gulch? I know most people didn't love the map but it still has so many memories, and it was a lot of fun to play gulch wars on. O and ditto on the rewind dealio.[/quote] i totally agree with you. i loved coag. and B.Gulch. oh..and i havent really played any multiplayer yet.....so is there anything like gulch wars? cos me and my brother loved gulchwars.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Sgt BuDd [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Falcor Omega [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] POLOFOLK -Also is there any way for guests to be able to save preferences like armor , emblem, and colors so that they do not have to edit their spartan every time Halo 3 is booted up? [/quote] Yes, you create a new profile and name it whatever they want to be called. [/quote] actually new profiles cant be used on xbox live[/quote] Actually in Halo 3 you can sign in a guest for xbox live, it's really simple. But i don't think you can use them normaly and get acheivments with them or change the armour.

This may have already been asked, but I couldn't find it. What is the medal "Luke owes you a steak dinner"? I have a few of them and I don't know what I did to get it! I am on bungie.net all the time but still don't get it.....am I missing something? Overall the game is fantastic, but I do agree you need to be able to skip faster in Theater mode, by one minute intervals or something. It seems like a waste of time trying to find one clip, especially when I could have done it quickly and gone back to playing. By the way....nice try to make EVERYONE happy, but obviously this thread proves that to be impossible! I really don't envy you guys having to read all of these whines...er....I mean..."questions". Keep up the good work!!

Why can I not get a head shot with an smg or an assault rifle??? I can stand right on top of a grunt and shoot him directly in the face and will not get a head shot, what's up with that? I can understand not getting it from a distance as an smg or assault rifle would not be accurate at distance, but when I poke him in his eye with the barrel and pull the trigger it should be a head shot. Besides that; this is the [b] best freakin game ever, [u]THANKS BUNGIE!!!!![/u][/b]

Can you remake all of the Halo 1 and Halo 2 maps for DLC in the future? Is Halo 3 really the end? [/quote] Where there ever going to be brute pistols? Don't know. Is that not in Forge? How the hell are they going to do that and if so there would be too many maps. Probably, i have no idea.
