OKAY! So what else does ol' tank z have to save about the update and other things? Here's your chance to read away the lost blogin that would normally end up in Lukes mailbox! WARNING MAY CONTAIN TRACES OF NUTZ... ERM, SPOILERS! First off, guy who is -blam!-ing about Forge, get a grip. Yeah, I want more stuff for Forge and I'd like it to be easier and less time constraining, but to give up on your creation simply because of having a hard time putting things together is your own loss. Everyone knows, even if you didn't really feel like it, you could take 1 hour a night and still be able to create a map within a week. Honestly, it takes me a good 4 - 9 hours to complete my maps, and some of them aren't even completed! I need more tweaks, etc. But the fact of the matter is, Forge is not impossible. Further more, seeing the new things that are coming to Forge with the map pack easily gives me a firm optimism that it is going to be WAY easier in the future for you to navigate Forge and add more to maps. Also, auto-updates are now being done in small doses, so it is going to be a while before we see advanced auto-updates and it is hard to integrate new things into a system because of the technology, ahmph, that moneysoftz allows them to harness. Limited market will be destroyed by the hand of independent mover-goers who respond to great work, more so than great wealth and power. Bungie is slowly swaying this way. Ok, what else? Well Griffball is going great so far. I ran into a GENERAL who is an extreme booster in the International Tournament just an hour ago or so... [url=http://www.bungie.net/stats/halo3/CareerStats.aspx?player=aMaN%20WiTH%20aGuNN&social=true&map=0]Here You Are For The World To See...[/url] 3800 games and 5000 exp, you decide because Im -blam!- stumped! What else, what else... SPOILERS AHEAD! Ever since I beat H3 and seen the legendary ending, and if you haven't, stop reading now: I noticed towards the last level of the game, where you're in the flood capitol city high charity, retrieving Cortana, and encountering the massive brain waves of the flood minister Gravemind, THAT Gravemind does indeed reveal that he knows Cortana is using High Charity as a muse, explosive if you will, to blow up the Ark. And I sorta quote, "I know her secret!" - Gravemind Anyway, my theory is that instead of High Charity successfully blowing up, Gravemind uses the Dawn, Captain Miranda Keyes' ship instead of High Charity to blow up the Ark. NOW, how do you say that is possible? Well I think of the Pillar of Autumn, The OG Capn' Keyes' ship, can destroy one Halo ring, it can certainly destroy an Ark that is smaller. So, in the Legendary ending, is it this so called "Forerunner Marathon City" you see at the end. Or is it really Gravemind and High Charity, the one who knew his fate and escaped at the last moment to greet the ol Chief and Cortana? You decide... ALSO HALO THE -blam!- WARZ! And, please understand that Bungie does not control the price of maps. Moneyzoftz gets a cut of the rug and they mean business! Wait for Bungie to go on its own and develop and far superior console. I am going to attempt to fathom a notion of helping in order to help Bungie achieve this. jk, I am just going to end up working for Bungie. Bungie. One more thing, GRIFFFBALLLLLLLLLL! Another thing, haterz, stop hating. one more thing again: To Bungie: Colon. Bungie, I am personally very proud of you. Making maps, debugging, getting things -blam!- done. How many companies can say they are productive as you? Not many. Be grateful Bungie actually listens and manages to have real lives and yet still have very successful jobs where they get stuff done. You know how many people struggle with family problems that get so bad they can't even work? These are people who are making millions, yet slaving at some point to make things right. It's not easy to put something in front of your life, you sacrifice your time, your being. In the end you may know it was all worth it, that on your death bed the life you lived was real. But here is Bungie, giving something they don't even have to, constantly, because they are good people. So in my HFO (humble -blam!- opinion) take your time Bungie, I got all the time in the world! :D [Edited on 04.05.2008 2:42 AM PDT]
