[The Lord Of Wednesday]

Found some footage on my old computer of a game of Halo 3 I played, I miss it (my GT in here is Isaac 735, or something like that, it was a while ago).

Anyone want to do a nostalgia game night with Halo 3 sometime?

[Makaru]

So, anyone else here a rank 40 or higher?

Also, I put in a double XP code and activated it (worth six matches) but I haven't had it applied when I play yet, anyone know what's up with that?

You have to "apply" it to your account as well as entering the code. Button's on the top left of the codes page. It also only counts towards War Games.

I've had Recon for a while, but it's not as sexy as I remember it being. Now I lust for Scout. Speaking of Scout, I liked the look of it in Halo 3, but did my eyes deceive me or was it lower res than all the other helmets? The textures didn't look right.

Did anyone else get the Limited Edition Package that came with the custom console and controllers? I am having a blast with it!

[Makaru]

I did. It is so pretty. And I'm actually using the FOTUS arms and legs which I didn't think I would do. But they look so gosh darn gorgeous.

Pardon my language.

[HAZMAT]

I got it too, I hate the sounds though.
BBZZZZZSSSHHHHHHHHHH

[Bundalings]

I'm satisfied with my Reach Xbox. I like it's more subtle look. That said, I miss my unicorn emblem.=/

[The Lord Of Wednesday]

Unless you unlock it later, I miss my Sol emblem.

[Makaru]

I am excited to eventually unlock my ODST emblem.

[Akuna Toa of Sonics]

I didn't get the console, but I did get the LE. Not a fan of the unicorn armor, anyway.
On another note, is anyone else having problems with the Challenger achievement? I've completed over 50 challenges (over twice the required amount) and still don't have it.

[Bundalings]

Maybe it only counts War Games challenges?

If anyone can join, a friend and I will be doing a bunch of custom games, using a map that we just made on Impact. Its a pretty neat Space Police-esque map, with the pirates with their dilabidated base on the small asteroid and the police with their command post on the bigger one.
If you guys want to join, just friend CommissionR on live with a message telling me your from BZP if you aren't already a friend.

What is the Gagarin Team?

What is the Gagarin Team?

They are the team you have to get the audio files from in the last "episode", the files are from the Blood Gulch Team.

Palmer's scripted reaction to Gagrin team was priceless when the dialogue switched to Caboose and Simmons XD

Totally forgot to answer the question of who's hit specialization level.

I hit 50 last week, got xp capped three times (one of them being a temp xp ban after some awesome gaming that got me the venator helmet and a bunch of other commendations). So, yeah, just thought I'd have my bit of glorious gloatery time...ahem, anyway, off to see the new SpOp's episode and paly the missions, ciao.

[The Lord Of Wednesday]

I say this here because Halo is related to Bungie, anyway Project Destiny details are out now.

At first, I was thinking "oh cool. That's a wicked looking Scarab. On second view, it was very clearly NOT a scarab.

Oh guys, there is a Crimison Map Pack Glitch we found on Halo 4 last night. If you go to select the Crimson Map Playlist without the DLC then it will direct you to a screen where you can download it for free. Though I do not know if they fixed it since last night.

 

Oh and Lone,  next time I have the chance, I will blast you with my Sonic Rainboom of Love and Tolerance, also known as the Spartan Laser, but the previous name is cooler.

[Ptolemy]

Ugh, I had to to before you guys had that game, I don't like you now.

I'll have to kill you with my one-shot-hand-held-shotgun

Put in the code (thank you Lone) and it said the specialization alpha priority or whatever, but none of them have shown up and it's been two days (and yes, I'm past 50, 57 to be exact)

Well, the new Live thing fixed the Crimson DLC glitch.

 

Also I found out that, for whatever reason, Lonewanderer is incapable of killing me. Call it fate being an excellent troll but everytime he got my shields down or found me without shields, Toa Zyglak kept either stealing his kill or killing me first. But what made it funny was that this happened at least 10 times in a row.

 

There was also other awesomeness to be told of.

 

-There was one time Lone managed to kill me, but unluckily for him, I stuck him and he died just as he began celebrating.

 

-This other one was with XXaron, who was also with us the entire time. TZ's friend/brother/whatever was playing too and I stuck him just as XXaron began assassinating him. The result was an epic double kill.

[Electric Turahk]

So... I think some of the Crimson DLC achievements might be glitched. But in a good way.

I just got 4 achievements in one match... It was pretty awesome. Board an enemy Mantis and get the killing blow on an enemy Mantis - both easy, got at the same time.

But then later on in the match I got the one for killing from a man cannon and the one for landing a melee from a man cannon (literally at the same time this time).

I never want off a man cannon.

I did sprint and jump, which had me going fast... I think it determines you went off a man cannon for the achievement based on air time and speed. Which would fit in with what I did perfectly. But there still was no man cannon.

Nonethelees, I was happy about it.

[~Allegretto~]

I absolutely hate that melee Achievement. No matter what I did it wouldn't unlock, either through glitches or from actually trying to get it because no one would ever get anywhere near me when I was on a man cannon. Eventually got it on Harvest from one of the middle lifts but seriously it was the most frustrating thing since I tried doing Mile High Club.

 

Also I still can't get Now They Fly. :/ Gauss Hog would make it so much easier but I guess if there was one this Achievement wouldn't exist.
