Oh I'm sorry, I just woke up and the challenges were the 1st thing I read :lol
What I read was:
Now I have a Machine Gun
Earn 30 assists with automatic weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking.
Edit: Loving that Campaign challenge though. We should have more like this.

God that would be fucking hell. I never use the AR so ill probably never get automatic challenges.

Campaign Challenge is good, assist Challenge is bad. Also expecting people to run around like jackasses to get the AR kills, that one was probably not the best idea for multiplayer Matchmaking. I'll probably get the 180 kills one and be done for today.
Also a FYI, someone on another board told me that for the Campaign challenge if you die and Restart Mission from the pause screen then beat it without dying at 10k+ it doesn't give you the Challenge complete. So I'm guessing it's borked like the other ones where you have to go back all the way to the Campaign screen to re-load the mission.

So when's the stuff to prevent arseholes being away from the game coming in? One of those + a quitter makes the game so fun. 0 kills, 17 deaths for that guy.
Us 2 still managed to win but it really needs to be fixed. I'd rather have 2 quitters than one left to be a free kill for the other team for the whole game :/

Be Vigilant: yes.
Also, the hilarious thing is that three weeks after this game first came out, during which I have nearly reached the current level cap, doing the Now I Have a Machine Gun Challenge still wouldn't qualify me for the Iron Trigger Man Commendation. :lol
It's also been three weeks since my bnet avatar updated.

I'm really surprised they don't have an AFK auto-booter. That is more harmful than quitters IMO.

I'm about equal I had like a 1.73 k/d in MW2 and about a 1.72 in H3. In Reach I only have a 1.5k/d but I did let my friends who are terrible trash it for a whole night so I think its actually closer to 1.7 (social). I also never really stat whored in either game.
I broke up with Halo 3 for a good while and switched to MW2 for bout 3 months. It was hot for a bit but I lost interest. Comparing the two is actually really stupid, SWAT is sortof like CoD but at the same time not even close. Both games have really good players playing them and really bad players playing them. Both games are complex enough that they require a lot of thought...and at that point you're more playing the players you're against than the actual game, I dunno if that makes any sense.
and OMG 6000 credits worth of challenges today! Jeez they must have been listening to NeoGAF's whiny "wahhh I'm stuck in WO3"

They need to make it so if you afk and die 3 times in a row without touching the controller you get booted. Might be tricky to implant but not many people die 3 times in a row without moving in any game type, not even snipers.
xxjuicesxx said:
Oh wow, last time I checked my MW2 stats, I was at around 2.3 k/d, but on Halo Reach I'm 1.2 or something like that. Pretty bad :lol
Then again I play MW2 on the PS3 where I'm used to the controller. I've only had the 360 for two months and I still have some issues when aiming (can't make really small movements for some reason, but in MW2 I have no problem doing that..).

Woot! Something to hear when I must jog at school sports laterRyan_OXM said:Apologies if this was already posted -- and for the self-pimpage -- but I interviewed 343's Frank O'Connor on the OXM podcast this past week, and he dropped a few little interesting nuggets of info about Reach and other Halo-y stuff. Interview link is here and the segment with Frankie starts at about the 40:00 mark.
Oh 2 assist challenges
The campaign challenge is nice. Which level should I choose for the challenge? Played "Long Night Of Solace" for the weapon challenge yesterday. Any recommendation? I am not looking for the easiest way to get the challenge.Photolysis

K/D means nothing to me, I always aim for the goal such at flag cap or bomb plant, so much more fun then hanging back with a dmr.

Just got Be Vigilant on LNoS. Man, I love Reach's campaign.
...But, I swear, the more I play it, the more confused I am by the story. I understand what transpires, but now how the events transpire. A few notable examples:

I still don't understand how the Covenant Corvettes as seen in Oni Sword Base and Nightfall managed to get past Reach's defenses, the whole Covenant cruiser being cloaked, and why Reach's super MAC guns couldn't just blow it out of the sky.

Maybe the MAC guns were on the other side of the planet and couldn't turn around because of an electrical fault in their power coupling matrix.

They do.
I honestly think that If CE was remade in Reach engine, it would greatly increase the enjoyability by adding things like vehicle jacking and certain AA's, especially for enemies.
Also, after years of playing CE, I think that if the CE weapons were replaced by their Reach counterparts + DMR, the game would not play too differently. Obviously, stuff like Spartan Lasers and Plasma Launchers and Orbiyal Strike guns would have no place, and usable energy swords and fuel rod guns would be limited.
I was going to suggest that 343 add in one or two extra missions, involving the Falcon and/or brutes, but CE had such a great flow so I don't think that would be a great idea until we see what they are capable of.
My opinion, don't kill me bro's.

I would love if they remade The Pit and gave it a huge art overhaul setting it somewhere in the wilderness by
Oni Sword Base

If reach ever had an expansion like ODST for halo 3 I would love to see the war from a completely different angle, we know the noble team and what they had to do but maybe a story where we find out why reach's defences were so fucked and more about the battle on the other side of reach.

I hope Bungie issues an explanation of some of the story. I'd really like to read their take on some things.Mikasangelos said:

My bungie.net armor still hasn't updated...I guess it's not a huge deal because I probably won't really have the armor that I want for years!

While Team Slayer is much improved, there are too many Slayer DMRs/Slayer Pro games...I just wanna play default slayer, AR/Pistol starts.

Played some Rocket Race on Paradiso...what a terrible map for Rocket Race!
The 'geese seem harder to control too. They feel too lightweight.

Fuck the people who vote for slayer pro, if you don't want AA's play Halo 3.

I would hate this. I want CE to be remade because I would love to play that core multiplayer experiance over live. Changing the sandbox would basically turn it into a totally different game. It would almost be like a new release, but only half of a new release if you get me.
I really think a live enabled CE carbon copy would be awesome. The difficulties come though from the player base split. Not many would be interested in it anyway so it probably wouldnt make much money. :/

Why don't you just go to the Arena? Reach ALREADY has a dedicated DMR list (2 now with SWAT being separated), I don't see why Team Slayer can't just be that, TEAM SLAYER. Not Pro, not DMR, not Elites, just SA-LAY-ER.
