[quote][b][u]Dont believe me? read it for yourself [url=http://www.bungie.net/projects/odst/features.aspx#recon]here[/url][/b][/u][/quote] When Halo 3 ODST comes out in Sept. you need to have your gamertag linked to bungie.net to unlock recon, so a few days ago I decide to make this video to show how to do it. Here's the link [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uyYFdWF2-Q]HERE![/url] [b]also i have answered some questions here too[/b] now you can post your question and i will answer your question from the youtube video! [b]IMPORTANT ANSWER:[/b] You have to have your gamertag linked to unlock recon because of modders. Modders can mod there gamerscore and get all the achievements in halo 3 before halo 3:odst comes out, so having your gamertag linked to bungie.net Bungie Studios can look and see if you modded your achievements before ODST and banned you. [b] EDIT [/b] - linking your gamertag and having all the vidmaster will unlock recon, you MUST have your gamertag linked to bungie.net to unlock recon. [b] EDIT [/b] - Bungie just gives you recon they dont send you a message with the code [quote]Raptor 100 Great job. But here is my question. I have already done this. But will Recon just be unlocked or will Bungie have to send you a code?[/quote] [b] EDIT [/b] - Bunige has to have your gamertag on bungie.net to get recon because (i think) they have to send it though bungie.net [quote]Speedmachine202 Why will you have to link it?[/quote] [b] EDIT [/b] - All you have to do is link your gamertag and do all the vidmasters. Then recon will be yours [quote]Raptor 100 I was watching a videointerview with bungie and they said all you have to do is link your gamertag and complete the vidmaster achievements. They didn't say anything about unlocking othere achievements unless this was just announced recently. If this is the case will we know what the other task is?[/quote] [b] EDIT [/b] - From the videos from E3 they said all you need is the vidmasters, but you never know what bungie is going to do [quote]ooIM UR DADDYoo Only bungie knows... Then when all tasks are complete, you must access your profile with a linked gamertag... Not just have your gametag already linked, you must visit your profile AFTER completing the tasks http://www.bungie.net/projects/odst/features.aspx#recon For the first time, Recon Armor for use in Halo 3 multiplayer will be made available to players who complete the "Road to Recon" challenge. Earn all seven of the Vidmasters, a series of Xbox LIVE achievements that span Halo 3's Campaign and Multiplayer and Halo 3: ODST, and then visit your Bungie.net Service Record with a linked gamertag to enable your sweet new set of digital duds. [/quote] [b] EDIT [/b] - This is different from winner or getting recon you need to have it linked so bungie can see that you have unlocked the vidmasters. They have not done the vidmasters so they dont have to have there gamertag linked to bungie.net [quote]RickRoll57 now who says we have to have our GT linked to bungie to get recon? maybe to get notified yes but im looking now at all those that have recon who dont have their gamertags linked to bungie....digital ph33r, a tuxedo cat, just to name a few[/quote] [b] Q&A [/b] - Here it is from the weekly update for the recon! [quote]Foreva? For-eva-eva? For those wondering if that means they're on The List - the compilation of names we've collected of players who might never receive Recon via any method - the answer is probably no. We typically reserve those line items for the really egregious offenders, for example, players who convinced themselves it was a great idea to mod their way to the achievements that aren't available through official means just yet. But if you've been banned for EXP boosting, your penalty has already been delivered. If you lost your File Share privileges, the consequences of your actions have already been realized. You can still have Recon come Fall, as long as you complete all of the Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST achievements required, just like everyone else. And this isn't your cue to message us asking for a detailed itemization of each and every ban type for severity so you can determine if you have made The List. If your punishment was only temporary, or was confined only to Bungie.net, chances are you have nothing to worry about.

Bungie however did say that the people who have modded xbox 360 and played maps that weren't out yet will never have recon. Here is what they said.
