Bungie Watch
Apr. 19
MLG Meadowlands Event
Brian Jarred once again brings us the Bungie Weekly Update, this Friday, the 18th of April, 2008. Hit the jump to check out the highlights!
Brian kicks it off by thanking everyone who bought the new map pack.
People are experiencing some issues with the new maps. One issues is that when people go into the DLC playlist, they're told that they don't have the maps. If this happens to you, go into custom games to make sure that the maps show up on the list. If they don't, they just aren't cached yet. Try clearing your Xbox's cache.
Another issue seems to be with people who have their content items maxed out, custom items being screenshots, clips, etc. If you have 100 content items, sometimes this cause the maps to not load. Trying deleting a few items.
There was a bug involving an invisible Wraith on Avalanche. This has been fixed.
The Nova and Pen & Ink filters can't be used on Blackout. Deal with it.
Bungie is currently working on new awesome projects that we aren't allowed to know anything about. :(
If you recall from last week's update, Luke was off at the MLG Meadowlands event. Check out the update here for pictures.
To finish her off, Shishka details how to NOT get recon armor.
For one, don't message shishka with something like this: "Hi I lost my recon armor and frank connor said I should message u to get it back."
And better yet, don't send the following message to every Bungie employee.
Hello, my gamertag is [Omitted] and my names [Omitted], im 15 and live in Michigan.
Anyways, I'm a big fan of Halo, as a matter of fact i sold my PS2 o buy a Xbox, Halo2, and Xbox LIve. I spend so much time on this game. It's my life. Just last week my older brother who is 21 deployed to Iraq. Last Monday he died in action, ='(. It's been miserable these last few days.
Now, this is not a lie, my brother who also played Halo wanted Recon. He would always be like "I wish i had it" BlahBlahBlah.
Ever since he passed, I've been thinking of ways to remember him. And it hit me, Recon Armor. Now, Now, I know what you're thinking: "Some other little kid asking for Recon" One, i could care less about the armor, I just want it to honor my brother who died fighting for us. =( This is not a pathetic attempt to get that dreaded armor. I know you will probably block me, or just flat out ignore me. But, before you do just please put yourself in my position and think about it. It would mean so much to me. And more than likely i wont receive the armor, could you at least reply explaining why? It's not a lie what kind of sick person would lie about something like this for video game armor?!
Once again, please don't just ignore it. and at least reply. If you even read this which i doubt.
Please consider this.
Thank You, Sincerely [Omitted] ='(
ESPECIALLY after you sent this message to the same people a few months ago.
Hello, my gamertag is [Omitted] and Ive been a fan of Halo since Combat Evolved and really love the series and everything you guys produce.
You guys are the reason I sold my playstation in order to purchase Halo and an Xbox. I love you guys! Last week my cousin also a Halo fan Gamertag: [Omitted] passed away. I made a thread about her in the forums and it got over 300 replies. She was awesome and loved Halo. Its been really tough this last week without her. I have been grieving ever since last Wednesday. This is not a lie, Im telling the truth and just need something from my friends at Bungie. Ive not tried taking L337 screenshots, or faking videos for Recon Armor, Im a great member of the community and have done nothing wrong. The reason I want Recon armor is because my cousin [Omitted] who I love and miss oh so much, wanted Recon so very much. I just want it to honor her, and remember her. I want Recon for her. I dont want it to run around saying Hey I got Recon I want this armor for my late great cousin [Omitted] =(
Thank you, Bungie

Lying will actually get you put on a list to NEVER receive recon. Shishka's own words.
Have a good double XP weekend guys.
