Halo 3 Beta "Rule of Three"


Recommended Posts

We probably made it. All the kids east coast are just getting home from school. The only people who can sign up were in work. I don't think 13333 people can sign up during their work time in the past hour.

Hooooo Raaah!

Not to rain on your parade, but I got that message too, and I didn't play for 3 hours (I played, on pure coincidence since I rarely play H2 online - I LAN with my buddies in the dorm, for maybe an hour and a half max).

I know, my point is that just because you got that message doesn't mean you got in.

Oh, I thought everybody knew that, my mistake.

If they couldn't tell if you played why would they give definite times and dates? :rolleyes:

They probably can get that info from the live servers and the 360 hardware reports that they collect to see if it is modded/etc., why else would you HAVE to play on a 360? Many people have 360s and play Halo on their original xboxs, I know lots who do.

Well, I managed to dign up, but I am not 100% certain that I got all 3 hours in. This weekend was a bad time for gaming for me :( My guess is they got a lot more than 13,333 submissions anyway though. haha

I new this was going to happen. I only had one class today, and I just new it was going to be in the middle of that damn class. I have a feeling the reason they did it in the middle of the day is to try to keep out as much of the little 13 and 14 year old kids who are just going to play it a few times, and go onto another game. They wouldnt be very serious about testing.

i would think that you are correct, heck 1 pm est is after most peoples lunch time as well so it shuned alot of business folk too, i really hope i get in and can play some without the "ozmagosh i totlay noobierd wazkied you" as i probably have muted close to 200 ppl by now on Live.. ireally wish there was a search featuer that would allow you to discriminate against age as i would nix everyone below the age of 20

Well, I think that is a little harsh. I'm only 17 and I don't do that, although I admit there are WAYYYYYYY too many people who do!!! I'd say about 16-17 is where people really start to be either idiots/nubs or actually understand that it is only a game.

I haven't muted that many people simply because after a couple of minutes they tend to be quiet when they realize that we really are better than them... haha

But back on topic:

I personally thought the link was going to be on the main page so it was probably up for a while when I finally saw it on the back page haha. I don't really remember when I signed up. Does anyone know how long it was open?
