|OFFICIAL| Halo 3 Beta Blowout


Recommended Posts

;) Thanks for the tip. Now if only I could make my XBL icon it as well... :shifty:

I know. I wish we could have custom images for our Gamertag icons... But it would probably be abused with offensive images, and I'm guessing that's why they don't allow it. :/

Closest you'll get to that is using the Vision camera. Only friends will see it and it's a little pixalated/discoloured, it can turn out ok sometimes though :)

Thank God im back online again my ISP is really unreliable and i thought they were down again :o

*But through my dark ninja arts i was able to get it back up again :shiftyninja:

*no ninja arts were used i actually just restarted reuter and hoped for the best... :rofl:

I posted this in the Halo 3 Beta Gameplay thread last night, but I wasn't sure if you all read that thread as well, so here's a nice bit of info:

Hey, that's a pretty good idea, thanks for that. I'll stick to mine though as it seems to identify me and it'd be weird to change :p

Regarding the threads, I vote for a Merge since the discussion seems to be mostly here and some separation with posts in the other thread.

Halo 2

# Total Kills: 53984

# Total Deaths: 37588

# Kill/Death Ratio: 1.4362

# Total Assists: 14390

Halo 3

# Total Kills: 878

# Total Deaths: 667

# Kill/Death Ratio: 1.3163

# Total Assists: 309

Unfortunately, I'm not nearly as good in Halo 3 as I am in Halo 2, but hopefully that will change when the final is released and I have a few more weeks under my belt. I'm getting there... ;)

It was probably only because all the other players were nubs, but it's okay, it made me feel better :p

Got home from work today and wanted to fire up some Halo 3, and what do I get?

Red rings of death :cry:

By the time I get my X Box fixed, the beta'll be expired. This sucks. Worst possible time for a console to go out.

RIP 360

Damn, that really sucks man, sorry to hear that. But, hey, at least it's still under warranty I'm guessing? Plus, Halo 3 will be out in September so your wait isn't too too long. :)

It's $140 for repairs. Warranty ended a long time ago.

Gah. Anyone else who's ever turned on a 360 to find it totally useless knows how I feel. Anyone who's ever seen a $400+ piece of hardware flush itself down the drain does.

Not too great of a game. You have a +5 kill death ratio. Good game for you though!

Come on now, don't be so hard on him. He's getting better and better :) Keep it up pixels (Y)

EDIT: Wow, I just realized something, it doesn't look like they're keeping track of Hit % (or am I just missing it?) That really sucks. I think that's probably one of the most important stats to gauge your progress by and I can't believe they took it out. :(

Luckily..I've had a warranty of my 360 through all it's failures. I've been on 3 different 360's in the past week and one day..don't fill bad..they wanted me to send it in and I was like umm how about not.

I know. I wish we could have custom images for our Gamertag icons... But it would probably be abused with offensive images, and I'm guessing that's why they don't allow it. :/

I'm thinking the reason is more that they sell picture packs. Who would buy them if they could get their own pics?

So instead of pointing that out, why not encourage his progression? We're all here to have fun, not everything is a competition. :)

For real. If the time comes we need to band out into groups to the people who take this all way to seriously and only care about their stats and the people who play just for fun and keep track of their stats, then I for one have no issues at all with that if it means everyone enjoying themselves.

For the record we all want to compete, we all just do not care about being the best players on the planet.

    • Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken by Sayan Sen Microsoft is making some decent progress when it comes to Windows 11. Recently we have confirmed reports of some rather useful improvements landing in the next version of the OS, 26H2, wherein GPU driver TDR crashes may finally be fixed, plus the company is also allowing users to disable web content on the Search. On the Outlook front though things have not been so rosy. Last month in May we reported several problems affecting basic functionalities on the app. These included a problem where documents would open blank or corrupt themselves. Following that, Quick Steps, a very useful feature, would no longer work correctly, and finally, Microsoft acknowledged a problem wherein images would fail to load up properly inside the email. Microsoft had resolved those bugs later and almost exactly a month after we reported on them, the company has now admitted a new similarly basic issue, this time on Macs. Users recently started noticing that Outlook would no longer display email threads properly as the original message itself was not displayed. An affected user Tsoumpas, C (ngmb) nicely described the problem in a forum post they made on Microsoft's site. They wrote: "Description of the issue: After updating Outlook for Mac [Version 16.110 (26061317)] on 18/6/2026, replying to any email no longer includes the original message in the reply window. Prior to the update, replies correctly contained the original email text below my response. Expected behavior: The original message should be included in the reply, as in previous Outlook versions and according to the configured reply settings. Actual behavior: The reply window contains only a blank composition area (or only my response), with none of the original email text included." Obviously this must be a highly frustrating for users as noted by several in that thread. The post, at the time of writing, has also been upvoted by more than 40 users indicating that is a fairly widespread bug. Thankfully Microsoft seems to have acknowledged the problem right around that time as it opened a new issue on its official website. In the support article, the company recommends switching to Outlook for Mac from the legacy app, where the problem appears to be happening.
