But does that include DLC maps? All the maps on disc are going to be original, but we can hold out hope for some remakes in the DLC.

I've never actually noticed this problem, so I don't know what to tell you. It's an interesting topic, though.

Yes, welcome! You've come to the friendliest little corner of the internet here. Enjoy your stay, and hope to see you around.

Crap, I love starting as elites in Invasion. Active Camo + Needler? And in Invasion Slayer on Hemmorage, add the Sniper? Yes please.

That's actually a really interesting idea. But it also makes the plasma pistol a bit over powered, too. I dunno. Disable Jet Pack, Armor Lock and I would throw in Active Camo as well. Leave Sprint, Evade, Hologram and Drop Shield. Interesting. I like it.

It's been neither confirmed nor denied, so we're still speculating. All of the elite fans are saying they will be playable in customs and forge, but that's really just a hope for them right now.

Perhaps it's refering not to the series of books, but the name. "The Prefect" - could it be a person? I think this was discussed already, back probably 10 pages or so.

And to expand on what BulletStorm said, we're not the official 343 site, we're just a Community site, so all we can do is give you an idea of why you were banned, can't actually un-ban you.

Behind Blue Eyes - The Who

He was specifically asking about the book "The Prefect" which isn't a Halo book. In no way does it directly tie to the Halo Universe.

Well Spooky, I can guarantee you that you're earning more credits now than you were when you were a Private. It's a slight increase every time you gain a rank, not noticable, minute. But if you start a new profile and played even just a single game of matchmaking, you'd see the difference immediately from what you get when you first start vs. what you get now that you're a forerunner.

He's talking about on one XBox, Doctor. Unfortunately, you can only have 2 players in Co-op on 1 XBox. Only way to get 4 is over Live (or is it possible via LAN?). hejw2008, unfortunately I don't see 343 changing this format from the way Bungie created it. 2 players max co-op on one XBox is about as far as it's going to go, anymore and you need to do it over Live (possibly LAN?).

Oh I don't disagree with you, I would love the stats here to be updated and work properly, that way I can actually check them when I'm not at home. But on the other hand, Twam is doing a bunch of other things to update and make the site a better place overall. I'm sure it is on his list somewhere, but when he'll get to it, only he knows.

If there is no distiction, then what's the penalty for quitting out of a ranked game? What do you do if you join a game with 3 minutes left and find out you're going to lose? Will it affect your W/L ratio? How is ranking going to work? Are there even going to be seperate playlists for social and ranked play? These are things we don't know. Until we do know for a fact, I say, if they do have seperate playlists, keep the join in progress in ranked only. Unless they come out and tell us how it is going to work.

The reason that stats no longer work here, I believe, is because the stats on this site came from Bungie. When Bungie stopped tracking Halo: Reach stats, this stat tracker quit working as well. If you want up to date stats, Waypoint is the way to go, until a time comes when (or if) somebody figures a way to port the Waypoint Stats to our stat tracker.

I'm with Dan on this one. If we do fight the forerunners, it'll be a temporary thing. I don't think they are going to be the main threat throughout this new trilogy.

But can't you use video editing software to take snapshots from the video your capture card collects?

Mama, just killed a man..

The only time I've ever seen a party split is when they have more in the party than the team can handle. 5 players in Team Slayer? One of the party is on the opposite team. 4 players in Multi-Team? 1 player is on a different team. I've never had a party of 3 split in any Halo game. Now, as for not allowing parties with more players in them than is allowed on a team, certain playlists already have that feature, while other's don't. There are times when we get a group of 8 together and play. Most of the time we do BTB, but occasionally we want to kill each other, and Team Slayer (or a custom game) allows us to do that. We prefer going through matchmaking because it doesn't force somebody to choose the map and game type, let the whole group decide based on what matchmaking wants to give us. Long story short, I do have a problem with people going into a playlist like Team Slayer with 5-7 members in a party, but not 8. If you have enough to make two full teams, then by all means, allow matchmaking to continue allowing giant parties like that, but if you have more than one team allows, but not enough to fill two teams, don't allow it.

Um, Ninja, that link takes you back to the main Halo Forum sub page. You may want to change it.

Caught in a landslide

No, but it makes somebody easier to see.

Near Pittsburgh, so we were neighbors for a while apparently. And yes, the weather is much better in NC, though today it's fairly nice here. It's strange, it's been nice here for a while now.... Well like I said, now you know about the updates. There have been monthy updates pretty much since Bungie has run the show, more so now that 343's taken the reigns, but they've always been a part of the game. Customer service problem or not, there was warning, just not in the game. So yeah, 343 definitely thought through the decision. Like I said, they wouldn't take it lightly. If they see a problem with something, they've fixed it. Look at TU as the perfect example. As for wanting those two maps gone, no, I did not want them gone. I enjoyed playing on Uncaged and Pinnicle as much as you, so I was sad to see them being removed. Fortunately for me though, I knew it was happening, because I saw the update announcement, and I also knew they weren't replacing them with anything, which is the real issue for me. I understand where you're frustrated, but there's not terribly much you can do about it, that's all I'm saying.
