Are you in the Dashboard Preview? It changes pretty frequently with me.
Are you hopping back on?
I just got pooped on by a bunch of super tryhards. One kid had his sniper trained on spawn points.

Nope regular dashboard.
Yes I'll be back on I'm really trying to get this NAT Open though as I get such better games with it open.

Have you tried resetting your router/modem?

Do you port forward, or just put the xbox IP in the DMZ?

Yea just did that.
And I just put it in the DMZ. What ports do I forward?
Open now.
Got room for one more.

This should be it, I just logged in to check on my router but I forgot that ever since I updated my router's firmware I haven't had to port forward.

If it's in DMZ, there is no need to forward any ports and vice versa. Do you know if your router/modem has UPnP?
I was thinking about it, but Best Buy had a preorder deal during E3 to save $10 so I'm getting the standard edition fpr $50 instead. Maybe if they had included FUD on Blu-ray.
Yeah, it was awesome. I hardly ever saw anyone else with the Savage Grenadier skin, but it's moot now because they released all the preorder skins in the latest DLC, albeit slightly altered.
You mean Unicorn helmet. Clearly based on the Unicorn Gundam.
Bad-ass is what it is. I think it should be unlockable at some point. Make it the Halo 4 equivalent of the Haunted helmet or something, max rank plus all Specializations maxed.
Looks more like Mordekaiser's helmet from LoL TBH.
All armor should eventually be unlocked. Recon being unlocked for everyone is exactly what I want to happen to Johnson/Grunt Funeral/Reach's Limited and Legendary armors/effects down the road.
When the commercial reasons have long since passed, it doesn't make sense to continue holding those back. Reward the people still paying 10$ a month to play your out-of-cycle game with a little bit of extra content to play with.

K its open. Yea I didnt think you needed to port forward when you put it in the DMZ. Because its outside your network. It worked the third try though.
Late night with Juices.

Looks like you got it figured out. Just in case you run into more problems there is a pretty informative NAT guide on Xbox forums if you're interested.
How to open NAT to resolve Party and Multiplayer problems
The one Duncan got. I kept meaning to order it earlier, but I forgot. I'd go through the GAF store if it was there.
Nope, just RedBubble.Read the OP
Well, yeah. But he said he'd submitted it to Evilore. I was just asking if it got accepted or not. Jerk.

Verizon's Actiontec FIOS routers have always produced a moderate NAT eventually when using DMZ, in my experience. If you can, replace it with something that can run dd-wrt, otherwise just stick to UPnP.
And then the people who already had the content will get angry and write online petitions and sue 343 for how unfairly they are being treated.
Yep, if you DMZ your box you're basically opening all the ports to it.

Correct.
Those people can STFU. They'll probably be playing the newest Halo anyway :lol
They've already done it with the "Day At the Beach" and the Halo 2 LE DVD making-of. (thanks to people at MS/343 that approved that, by the way). I'm not saying only like 2 years after the game comes out, but after a certain amount of time the community benefits more from having the content available to everyone openly.
Hopefully they'll eventually approve the Halo 3 Legendary content videos for openly public consumption. I'd say the 4 1/2 year period for Day At The Beach's release feels about right. Recon was unlocked for everyone in Halo 3 at about the same time-frame.
edit: And for the record, I got the Gamestop armor and bought Reach's Legendary edition.

In networking, if it's working, don't mess with it.
Agreed. There's no point to withholding the content indefinitely.

Also, a few friends and I are headed to PAX again this year. Any Seattle-ites have any suggestions for places to eat that aren't Subway or Starbucks 12 times a day?

Didnt even know I could replace Verizons router thought I needed it to get internet access, er I thought it was my modem/router. Anything that would get me better performance?
If your NAT is open and you're not having any problems, there's really no reason to.

You can use your own equipment if you're using ethernet from the ONT (white box likely setup in garage or outside), but you would need to call customer service for them to do a couple things on their end.

You can also bypass the router, effectively reducing it to a MoCA bridge. This was a setup I ran for years, but I also didn't have any STBs at the time. Should still be workable.
Oh, and < 11 weeks, bros.
So I've been talking with the Enforcer that's going to be running Halo freeplay at PAX, I suggested that if there's enough spare TVs in the room where it'll be held, that there should be an ODST Firefight co-op pod.
He likes this idea. ODST FF on LAN sounds like it'd be freaking amazing.
edit: he's still can't lock down the exact time, but it seems so far it might happen Saturday morning.
