I still think thats bull that they are making us wait for this long especially when were the ones who are paying for it. Bungie makes me want to punch a baby.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to be blunt. You don't know what the hell you're talking about.

1) You did not pay for the beta. You paid for the game. If you paid $60 for a beta, you're an idiot.
2) It is hardly under Bungie's control. It is a Microsoft/RTW problem, really.
3) If Bungie had set the release date next week, nobody would have been saying "OMFG WE SHOULD GET THIS A WEEK EARLIER THAN THE RELEASE DATE," so don't flip your shit because it's a few hours late.

How dare you have the audacity to blame Bungie for this problem, they don't even have to give out a fucking beta. Be grateful.

A. I did pay for the beta and not for crackdown the game(even though its is fun for a while)

B.I know its not bungies fault go to a few complaint threads at the bungie forums and its a no brainer.

C.I am angry cause I was anticipating for 8 am and its been like 11 hour s. Im angry at Bungie for all the different ways of getting the beta. I wish they would release it on the market place like every other game company that releases a demo/beta .

Also I really dont care if your a moderator but dont talk to me as if im some 13 year old who pissed his pants over a game. Its frustrating when you get hyped up so much for this and then disappointed.

We cannot blame Bungie for this, but we can be angry at time constraints. I have done litteraly nothing but sit in front of my 360 for almost 16 hours now....and am on my 3rd bag of cheese puffs, and nearing a second case of Pepsi....dang.

It's a game. It's coming out today. Calm down.

mike0619, I'm not going to argue with you, despite your flawed logic and negligence of the facts behind the situation.

One of the stickies in the Halo 3 Beta board has 209 pages (that's over 5200 replies) and was posted today.

Maybe I am just new to their forums or something, but that seems ridiculous. People bitch of the littlest things.

well I think bungie shoulda keep us up to date on what was going on.. and did they not test their beta deploy method before they released crackdown?

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Wed May 16, 2007 5:04 pm

They can't predict everything. I'm sure it was tested but whatever happened was highly unexpected and irregular.

Darco · Post by **Darco** » Wed May 16, 2007 5:07 pm

I don't think it was Bungies fault to begin with. It's the MS team that is fixing it, so it's most likely that they didn't test it. Not Bungie. However, i could be wrong.

Just think, all the excitement that is building up while we wait will make the game that much better when we play tonight/tomorrow. I know this weekend, a bunch of us from yayap are gonna have a big game. Is BTB a gametype that is available?

Hmm, if we have 8 people in a party and join a team slayer game, do all 8 of us join? As in, 4 on one team and 4 on the other? Sorry, but I've never tried this in halo 2 so I really don't know.

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Wed May 16, 2007 5:24 pm

You can do RT with 8 people.
