at what time will it hit the 3 hour and 6 hour mark?

10:00 EST - 1:00 EST

 

[remorseless]

yes it will be

/thread

how dare you slash this thread!
it must go on forever

 

[Laika]

I think its the first time in the history of this thread that the x000 post was on topic

 

[Dirtbag]

What would he be apologizing for again?

On second thought, nevermind. I'm sure your answer would be so overflowing with geek entitlement it would make my head hurt.

Geek Entitlement huh?

creepy what you can find on the net.

 

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

tobal >>>>> crackdown

Tobal as in the first Tobal? Hellz no. Not even Tobal 2 is as good as Crackdown but at least that's a closer contest.

What will happen first - Halo 3 beta release or 10,000 posts?

 

[Ramirez]

We were playing 1 flag on HG a minute ago, they got the flag, hopped on the goose, I tossed a grenade and it ****in launched the goose up to the chaingun bridge :lol

I also grabbed the grav lift one match, dropped down after they'd just got done killing most of us, grab the flag which was in front of the gate from the inside of the base, drop the lift, shoot over the chaingun and high tail it out :lol

This game...is...so...awesome

 

[Blackface]

Are you kidding? I mean, aside from it being free, a pre-release glimpse of a highly anticipated game, and a beta, why would bungie/MS have to do anything? You know there are already a bajillion pre-orders, right? Are you telling me that you're not going to buy it if they don't extend the beta a day? Hell, even if Bungie cancelled the whole thing altogether you (and everyone else complaining) would still end up buying it, so please stop this bs and show a little patience. They aren't delaying on purpose; it's that simple.

By playing the Beta you are helping the company. Thats what the point of a beta is smart guy. Your are saving them thousands of dollars they would have to dish out to other places by helping them identify problems and fix them. The fact is, people paid money, to buy crackdown that was suppose to come with Halo 3 beta as part of the package. If the people who got in for free, got locked out for a few days, I doubt anyone would be freaking out because it was FREE.

 

[SteveO409]

So.. uuh, you guys think Halo 3 will be any good?

I mean, the second was a bit of a dissapointment after all. But I'm pretty stoked for the third game cause I'm sure Bungie has been listening carefully to criticism.

:lol :lol

Thanks for the free plug. Now go look up what "entitlement" means. :lol

I'm just the kinda guy who accidentally get that post. What more can I say?

I bet I alone will be able to play the beta before you guys, thanks to that post. Too bad I'm starting to feel sleepy now.

Hopefully a few of them will be removed before launch!

holy shit its a beta, they are called bugs

Some of you think this is a retail release that you are entitled to

We had some great matches

I was called a geek by one of their leaders apparantly.

So lift those heavy eybrows something something something!

 

[Karma Kramer]

They should have rewarded the Halo community by sending out invites to those who are the most experienced and devoted Halo 2 online gamers. Instead many gamers who probably barely even played Halo 2 are now playing it while the true fans have to wait and have a $60 entry fee (technically).

I mean I like Bungie, but its hard not to feel somewhat ignored over the past week.

Um, beta? Bungie said several times we'd see some rough edges. Even with them, this Beta is more polished than Halo 2 ever was.

Good.

Let the suckers find them now so Bungie can change what they need to for Sept.

None of those are glitches or bugs, and screw you for linking to some site linking to the youtube.

Those are mostly easter eggs.

 

[-ImaginaryInsider]

Yes it is, but it's not a glitch, those trees seem specifically built to be jumped up on.

 

[ElectricBlue187]

UPDATE:


STILL NOT OUT YET

 

[Laika]

I think Bungie should let these exploit/glitch groups play ALL the maps for release, let them search for the exploits, so Bungie can fix them up before release. Halo 2 was annoying in that aspect. It was fun if that was the point of the game, trying to get out of the levels, but it got ridiculous when people started doing it in matchmaking.

 

[rs7k]

That's retarded. I can buy new copies of Crackdown with the Beta at my Futureshop for $50.

 

[giga]

UPDATE:


STILL NOT OUT YET

We've only hit the 2 hour mark. We should start hoping now it's out by 3 hours.

(go for the 10k!)

I like the commentary they had, so screw you <3

 

[Bit-Bit]

Ok guys. I got home from work, loaded Crackdown, and still I got nothing. It still says to check back at a late time. Is there something that I'm missing?

 

[Jel0man]

Crackdown Update/Halo 3 Beta in 1-4 hours (if everything goes according to plan).

Eh, I don't see the big deal about anything in that vid. Most aren't that useful.

Still, as everyone else as said, that's what the Beta's for. The bug/glitch vids especially only help Bungie identify possible issues and take them out of the final game. Hell, Stinkles himself already said the same thing.

:lol Some of them were glitches...especially the last one. Easter eggs? Floating mongoose and spartans = easter eggs?

None of those are really practical exploitations in gameplay, though. Especially not the ones that you need 2 or 3 people for.

Anyway, this is good. That's why we have betas.

hey there smart guy, wise up to some smartness there smartypants. You think bungie is going to completely stop their internal testing even with the open beta available? Or maybe you think that Halo 1 and 2's multiplayer were complete trash because they didn't have an open beta for either of those games? You bought Crackdown -- that's what you paid for -- NOT the Halo 3 beta. Not to mention the fact that, in its current beta-esque form (without public testing), Halo 3 is better than it's predecessor...

Aside from all that, my main point still remains: Are you willing to boycott Halo 3 (as in, never play) if Bungie/MS don't give you an extra day with the beta? Yes or no? Because if your answer is no, then you should just stop this pissing and/or moaning.
