everyone is going to hate Sword Base...then realize its awesomeness.

It needs Team Slayer Pro. Thank you Arena.

Argh! Bungie!! Why am I having to sit with ODST in my tray, (spinning because I didn't install it) staring at the download (3% now) instead of letting it background download.

I'll blame Microsoft's SDK, but if Harmonix can work around it, then so can you. Anyone know if we can cancel the download and then restart it as a background item?

I tried but it wouldnt let me, i cant even respond to friends or anything because it cancels the download if you do

What a joke

 

[RoboPlato]

6%

Internet on college campuses during finals week really blows.

 

[JohnTinker]

Any live playing streams up?

Won't get to play til later tonight (maybe) and was nice to watch Frankie play a couple days ago

 

[Oozinator]

Can you download this on the dashboard?

It wont let me

cancel the download from ODST -> Go to Dashboard -> Account Management -> Download List -> Download Halo Reach Beta

 

[Sai-kun]

Ok so here comes 4 pages of people sharing their fucking download status with the world.

Someone woke up on the wrong side of their controller today.

 

[GhaleonEB]

[fake edit] Geez, I took so long typing this thing no one will read that the beta is finally up for ODSTers.[/fake edit]

I want you to know that I read it, so it wasn't all in vain.

Have fun guys. See you online tonight.

 

[pringles]

Already over 70%, this is DLing way faster than expected.

 

[Drealmcc0y]

cancel the download from ODST -> Go to Dashboard -> Account Management -> Download List -> Download Halo Reach Beta

[2 Minutes Turkish]

Yeah unfortunately, Australian interwebz doesn't have the space to cram the awesome through the tubes.

Only at like 20% after about 15 minutes.

ugh.

 

[Oozinator]

Im pretty sure i tried that

no you didn't. I did and it works for me

 

[Wolffen]

I want you to know that I read it, so it wasn't all in vain.

Have fun guys. See you online tonight.

Haha. Thanks. Likewise, I hope to see some of you guys online tonight. I've yet to run into a GAFfer online.

Speaking of which, is everyone setting their callsign to GAF or NGAF or did that go out the window?

 

[noisome07]

100%,mine finished downloading on April 29.

Nice man I'm proud of you

 

[SpudBud]

Arena is the bee's knees.

[Tashi]

[pringles]

All done.


Will be back to complain about grenades, Sword Base and melee in a bit.

 

[The Crawf]

Just bought oonsk :lol

 

[Smokey]

Can't wait for the complaints from those who've played < 30 minutes to start rolling in!

 

[Drealmcc0y]

Doesnt work it will add it to the list but stay pending

yeah thats my problem, fucking BS

 

[JambiBum]

You wouldn't be playing Slayer Pro then. You'd be playing Slayer Noob

Nah. I'd just much rather start with an AR than a DMR. I will play Slayer Classic all day. I just don't like the DMR.

 

[Zomo]

Can't wait for the complaints from those who've played < 30 minutes to start rolling in!

Ahh... memories

 

[Oozinator]

Doesnt work it will add it to the list but stay pending

older download still taking place ? otherwise something may be wrong with your internets or XBL account

 

[Mr.Green]

Someone woke up on the wrong side of their controller today.

:lol

I'm just pissed I'm at work!

 

[deathberry]

WTF is this shit? My d/l was at 15% and I hit the Xbox Giude button just to see who else on my friends list was downloading, and it says "download stopped". I proceed to "Play the beta" and it resumes from 8%!

So I should absolutely, under no circumstances, let the controller turn off or hit any other button to move away from the download window or what?! This is bullshit :lol

 

[Ninja Moomin]

Ok so here comes 4 pages of people sharing their fucking download status with the world.

 

[Omiee]

downloaded in 4min nice
gonna play right now

 

[lockload]

older download still taking place ? otherwise something may be wrong with your internets or XBL account

Not jsut me it downloads fine in halos3 odst though, on 11%

 

[Trasher]

I'm gonna lawl when you all crash Bungie's servers and prevent yourselves from playing.

 

[DrBo42]

Can't wait for the complaints from those who've played < 30 minutes to start rolling in!

Probably sooner.

THIS IS FUCKING BULLSHIT!

Fucking thing sucks! Where's my BR? WTF is this shit?

Just watched my friend play it, what a piece of shit

 

[Mr.Green]

:lol :lol :lol

 

[lockload]

Probably sooner.

You forot to add

'I just played the halo reach demo and...'

 

[Korez]

Finish!

 

[Drakken]

Hopping back on. GT is Drakken688 if anyone wants to get an Arena party going.

 

[Smokey]

Probably sooner.

Where is such filth from? Bungie.net forums?

 

[2 Minutes Turkish]

Wow, downloading in the dash just sped up the fucking download!:lol :lol

Flying now.

Will be on soon bitches.

 

[DrBo42]

No I made those names and comments up.

 

[Numpt3]

Argh! Bungie!! Why am I having to sit with ODST in my tray, (spinning because I didn't install it) staring at the download (3% now) instead of letting it background download.

[lockload]

Wow, downloading in the dash just sped up the fucking download!:lol :lol

Flying now.

Will be on soon bitches.

Ah working for me now from the dash, fingers crossed it speeds up

 

[Sanic]

Well just went from ~3500 people online to 20468.

 

[SnakeSlashRO]

Rebooted the console...
Now it says "Play the Beta"

Sersly? I drove 20 miles home from work on a joke <_<....

Sadly I cannot make that drive again...

 

[Presco]

My first game of Arena and I received a rating of 1273.

Which was the best on my team.

By a large margin.

We got trounced and it felt like I was playing 1v4. Turned it around in my 2nd game a bit but going to wait till some friends are online before playing again. Just to clarify, is your daily rating based solely on the first three games you play in a day? Cause I've had a rough start.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

YES!!!

Went up to 1291 after a 1400+ game.

 

[Tashi]

Nah. I'd just much rather start with an AR than a DMR. I will play Slayer Classic all day. I just don't like the DMR.

Then why are you saying you want Slayer Pro changed? Just vote for Normal Slayer or Slayer Classic and hope for the best.
