The Director

My advice to you is to adapt, improvise, and overcome. This is an old saying (which I first heard during my stint in the USMC) and is actually a good one. If one of the opposing teams has a sword, switch your secondary weapon (or you main one if you want) to a shotgun, or if your teammate is closer to it, have him/her do it. Another thing you can do is just pick it up, move to another part of the map, and switch it out for another weapon so that they have to search for it. Or you can use it. Also, the only games that should give you trouble with the sword are AR starts. A DMR is a 5 shot weapon, and between the two of you you should be able to take out sword guy fairly quickly. Remember, first 4 shots in the body, last one in the head. http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=23085127&player=AAN2 this is a video of me taking out a guy with the sword and sprint using a DMR. The guys shields had JUST regenerated, and I still managed to survive. So, the sword isn't an almighty weapon, and if you actually strategize you should be able to kill someone holding it rather quickly. And remember, if someone else beats you with it, and you can't beat them with it, it means you have to get better. And you don't get better by complaining about it.

I would like to see multiple types of a Forge World. One with a lot of water, one more like sandbox, one that is mainly metallic. And all the size of the Forge World that we have come to love and be bored with!

Well, see if it's happening tomorrow. If it is, then you have a problem, if it isn't then you probably just simply hit the credit cap. What the cap is at at the moment, I don't know (it's been a while since I've seen it brought up). If you continue to have this problem, contact technical support (the number should be in your Halo Reach game booklet), or contact Microsoft directly to see what they can do for you.

Well, I have no idea, but my advice is play it and find out

I wouldn't mind AAs if they were only in the Multiplayer. If they were in the campaign, then I would be forced to wonder why MC didn't use them in the first three games, unless they included a BRILLIANT explanation along with it. The thing that I love about Halo is that before Halo Reach, the story that was created using the games and books was the closest to Iron Clad that I'd ever seen. No random gaps, no random inclusions of things that wouldn't be able to exist if you followed the story as well as some of us have, and everything pretty much fell into place. That is mainly what separated Halo from any other game in my eyes. Honestly I don't care what they throw in Halo 4, as long as it has a great story that follows what the rest of the games stories (with the possible exception of the Reach campaign, forgive and forget I always say) and don't put together a bunch of halabaloo and try to forcefeed it to us. The people working on Halo 4 are the same ones who ushered Halo into being, so I have faith in them that they can do this.

I've honestly never played ODST multiplayer. I thought it was all firefight though. o.O

Gamefly. J/s :3

http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=13634076 This map, however I saved a copy from a friend who also had this map, so I'm not sure if this guy is the original map creator, which is why I am asking those who forge with other people if they know the person who created the map lol

Well, from what I recall the Spirit of Fire went missing... Never heard from again. It would be interesting to see what happened to them.

Wait... Spectral, how do you NOT know what October's will be? o.O

RasenShot, that IS what they are doing... They only playlist that they might be subtracting more than 20% of the bloom will be known as the Betahopper playlist and will be coming this October.

Does anybody know the person, or the name of the person, who made the original UNSC Albatross on forgeworld for Halo Reach? I saved it from my friend who saved it from his friend, and now I want to modify and use it for something but want to talk to the person first. Searches for this map show up a few different people, and if any forgers here know who the real person is, please help me out. Thanks in advance.

If you are bridging host, then yes, you do deserve to be banned. Not for how you play, but for tampering. If you are up against someone who you know is modding, then grit your teeth, complete the game, then report them, do not start modding yourself.

Me: yeah, that's right, don't turn around. Him: Hey, is that the sound of sprinting behaaaaaaaaaggggggglghgghl Me: heh heh heh

There was this game that I played once, that had a map editor. It was for the console too. Basically, it let you build a map from scratch. Blank slate, you could build hills, build ditches, craters, and whatnot. It would be pretty cool if you could do that with forge. You could also change the terrain, rocky, grassy, sandy, and whatnot. You could also add structures and trees and such. Pretty cool map editor, and I THINK it was for PS2. It was pretty small though. It would DEFINITELY make it easier to create Machinima sets. xD

I haven't gotten a 15k jackpot, but have seen a few 3k and a 6k. And the challenges have gone up by about 1k or so And the weeklies I think are 5k.

I report them when I can see them xD I wish I could ban them >.> I would be dedicated to it too! I likes the !kb (mIRC reference, pay it no heed)

A foolish young child who

I played 2, so I'll play it if I can rent it. lol

Lulz, pink flames.

They DO still use trueskill in the game, you just aren't ranked on it anymore. As far as bloom goes, it's just eh. If you spam like crazy, you are still able to get a kill about 50% of the time (trust me, I do it from time to time) and pacing your shots is cool and all but it slows down the gameplay a bit, imo.

Well they gotta concentrate on the TU AND what they are doing for Halo 4. Plus whatever they are developing. I'm sure they will get around to it, though.

True enough, but better graphics is hardly a reason to go out and buy ANOTHER 360. Especially if they make it like the newest generation of 360s. :/

Actually, Wii beat them to it :3 And honestly, I wouldn't mind a second Halo Wars game, but I don't know what they would make it on. OOOOOOH! Maybe the forerunner war! Then lead it into the Covenant war! Perhaps the war on Earth that we pretty much missed while MC was off kicking covie buttocks And for matchmaking have all of the species unlocked, and balance it in much the same way that Starcraft 2 was! This is brilliant!!!! Also, Kinect would be cool, but I wouldn't buy it if it was Kinect exclusive. :/
