The Halo 3 Beta Thread

Son of Godzilla said:
The fact that the patch to Crackdown has to even pass certification is a sick joke. THEY JUST RELEASED ONE THAT BLINDLY DESTROYED SAVE FILES. Not to mention all the other horrendous bugs the game is now robust with.

1. the beta release was always going to come in the form of a title update. we all had a title update today but it didnlt work. i think cause of issues with other updates

2. every update needs to pass thru cert so they don't brlck 360's. but we know even then updates still brick systems lol

and on that note let me be the first to say the halo 3 beta gave me the red ring of death lol. u know its comming

Why did you quote me with something I didn't say? I know full well it's Zodiac and I have no interest in it.

you quoted what someone else quoted, and i didn't feel like doing the other quote, and I thought you were talking about Zodiac. SRY, lets enjoy the beta together
 
Haha, those rithum dudes are nuts.

I can imagine Luke cussing up a storm in the Bungie offices.

Actually not really, he's probably too busy playing the beta.

Can't wait to download this at peak times from a bunch of ****tard server monkeys with their heads up their asses.

Something went wrong. We don't know what yet. Take your medication, and stop acting like this Free BETA is something you deserve.

To YOU perhaps, but not to most of the people who bought it.

Are you seriously suggesting that the majority of the people who bought Crackdown did so for a beta?

C'mon man, get a grip.

Doesn't anyone read? I posted the Hot Fuzz poster. What are you talking about?

Someone posted pictures from Hot Fuzz and said it was the best movie this year.

Another user asked which movie it was and I posted the name and a link to imdb.

After this you asked which movie it was.

No I didn't.

I posted the ****ing Hot Fuzz poster. The other twit quoted me with something I never said.

RIF.
 
Probably 5 mins to fix the problem, then 5+ hours for certification! I'm atleast glad they have finally said something worth reading 11 hours after the beta should have been released.

Quality Assurance has seen a major cutback during the X360 period, not just hardware, but software too. Where have you been lately?


ms is not alone. its just the sign of the times. i bought a brand new samsung released just a lil over a month ago. it has hdmi handshaking issues with every device. every tv has it. i even asked the tier 2 guy how this could pass qa. they said it happens.

now i have to wait for a service tech to come replace my mian board and that will likley not fix the issue. they told me they are trying to foix the issue per a fw upgrade.

not to mention my sa8300hd cable box dying 3 times this year.

but with that said i ahve ahd no issues with my 360, knocks on wood.

i think all across the board companies are skimmping on quality. just my opinion. and oh i love my sammy tv. best pq i have ever seen on a lcd

this is worse than the IGN and Too Human debacle

well ofcourse it is one that was just enough this is actually gameplay and two that was too human (i am looking forward to it) and this is M***** F****** HALO. i am excited. haha
 
So the end result is that someone from Real Time Worlds should get fired for breaking the Halo 3 Beta download button code, and someone from Quality Control/Certification should get fired for passing the last Crackdown update without checking if it was still possible to download the Halo 3 Beta.

Make it so.

I paid for it. It said so on the box and in the box. Shut the **** up.

Most people i know who bought Crackdown bought it to play it. It's a great game. If someone was that desperate of a Halo fan to pay 60 dollars for Crackdown, when there were other, widely known, free ways to get it, then its their OWN DAMN FAULT.

Anyone wanna come over and watch the entire lotr trilogy while we wait?

you didn't like it?

Haven't seen it yet... but the amount of "I was just quoting you about your quote about the hot fuzz image. I thought though you were quoting the hot fuzz image not actually me quoting you posting the hot fuzz image..."

is getting annoying.

It's a joke, just like the absurdity evident throughout the rest of the thread. Just like the radio spot I made. I'm just having fun here. Much worse has been said already anyways.
