sparten i was talking about.

THE PEOPLE WHO FOUND THE HACKS NEED A LIFE!! I mean really… Why would
you spend hours and hours just looking for glitches, which then end up all
over the net and you get no props for finding it because everyone goes on
YouTube or some other site, uploads the exact same video, so then, when
you type in “Halo 3 Glitches” or something, you get about 300 pages of the
same frickin’ video! Plus, the Beta is a test and it’s only out for about 2
weeks more, then it’s gone. Bungie will fix the glitches, and Bu-Bam,
you’re screwed. I mean sure, there will be a very very small portion of
glitches in Halo 3, because it’s very hard trying to make a game as
complex as Halo and not have glitches. But soon the 1 or more glitches
that are in Halo 3 will, once again, be all over the net, and you get no
props.
Okay now for the positives. Prepare for a very sudden change of mood…
ZOMG! These hacks are uber frickin’ awesome! To be able to look at every
stinkin’ option in the Halo 3 Beta is awesome! And getting out of Valhalla
in a banshee rockz0rz!! I love these glitches.
Bottom line, for those of you who had no idea where I was going with the
total change of mood: I like the glitches, even though I can’t do most of
them, but, I have a real life, and prefer not to spend hours looking for
these glitches. If you do, knock yourself out.

Thanks to people who have way too much time on their hands, we have now discovered the method to playing Custom Games on the Halo 3 Beta. Many new options have been added to Halo 3 over Halo 2’s somewhat limited custom game functionality, opening up a new realm of Custom Game fanfare. Here is a list of what to expect when you play a Halo 3 Custom Game:
1: Almost 75% of all custom gametypes you play will have super speed and low gravity turned on. Although the option says “low gravity”, it really just increases your Spartan’s leg strenght. It looks like somebody’s been using their Aerobic Workout DVDs!
2: The Spartan Laser almost always replaces the Assault Rifle as your primary spawning weapon in Custom Matches. The skills that you learn from these matches are interchangable with your Laser Tag skills in real life. Please to not attempt to assasinate your best friend in real life by wacking him across the head with your Laser Tag gun.
3: The Wraith now has a mannable turret, which allows players to ward-off intruders that are trying to, quote, “Jack Your Ride”. It is rumored that in the final retail version of Halo 3, the Wraith Turret will be switched out with a 9mm Glock that you hold sidewise, allowing you to “Pop A Cap” in any ass that stands in your way.
4. The Sword now has a depletable battery, much like your toy Star Wars Lightsaber that you threaten your Neighbors little kid with.
I think all this hacking is dumb. Why do you need to do this stuff? Just
wait until September 25th and you will be able to see everything in the
game. OMG! Did he just say you can see everything in the game. I wanna
know how this instant!!! Impatient people need to learn patience.
OK this is SGO and here’s what i have to say. people who are going to
expect the world from this extra code may be sadly disappointed. for
instance i have heard that there was an option to play up to four player
campaign over xbl however it wasn’t a usable feature but if bungie decides
that they want to take out this addition people could get mad and be
screaming “what the F!!!! there was supposed to be an online story
option but now you took it out!!!!!!!!” well all i have to say to those
idiots that hacked the beta. IT’S EXTRA FING CODE ITS NOT NECCESARYLY
IN THE F*ING GAME!!!!!!!!!!!. now that that’s finished. i do think that
finding the new custom games menu is pretty freakin sweet. personally i
won’t be looking at this new custom games menu because i want to be
surprised for when the game comes out. :)
shout outs to angel leviathan, green eggs and sam, the ultimate whale,
t-stir, sqweryl and lilkuke for letting me do the art :)
intitutum est absolutum, immo vos estis vitiosi.
I think it is cool that people are exploring the beta but is Bungie
actually happy about this? It is similar to the leaked videos that came
out before the Beta was released. Or maybe Bungie is ok-ing this just to
add more excitment to Halo 3? Who knows but one thing for certain that the
Beta only has a small handful of the new vehicles, weapons, and deployables. So Halo 3 maybe very complex with all of these
powerups/deployables. I saw that the pistol is in the Beta but what about
the sword? I wish that the pistol and the sword would stay a secret until
Halo 3 is out. The armor customization could be very intereting. Is it
going to be similar to Rainbow 6 Vegas and have armor that will increase
your manuverbility or your protection? Or is it going just an appearance
thing. Could you be able to have the different classes of the MJOLNIR
armor?
Well thanks guys for reading this and keep on fraggin flap jacks!
Of all the revealed stuff there are a few things that got me excited.
1. Infection. Finally a Zombies gametype that will actually eliminate the
A-holeness that always occured in Zombies. I personally LOVED Zombie
survival but always got the experience ruined by the 4 guys who wouldn’t
switch.
2. Hornet. This instantly reminded me of the Wasp. It was a vehicle made
by Mothergoat in Halo CE. Basically it looked like the hoverbikes from
“The Island”. It had 2 guns which ere basically accurate AR’s and had a
dual Rocket launcher. The second version let a passenger ride on the back
(ala a flying Mongoose with rockets). It was, in essence, a human banshee.
And it ROCKED.
3. The new equipment sounds awesome. Instant Cover (makes a rock to
cower behind or cuddle with your best buddy?), Smoke (smoke grenade?),
Radar Scrambler (makes your radar think an orgy is happening). All sound
great.
Hey guys SGT Corona here. Playing the custom games is CRAZY. You can
basically change anything from your characters speed, gravity, and other
custom setting from halo 2. The weirdest gametype i have to say is
underdogs: you get points when you die. Sort of like JVB’s gametype “kill
me i’m here”. The new pistol is similar to the halo CE pistol. It has NO
zoom and it shoots slowly. One new medal that i discovered was “Bulltrue!”
which is a sword lunge kill, and speaking of the sword, the tip is looking
straight up where as in halo 2 it points straight ahead. I want to give
shout outs to rec D, A Dark Knight 2, CPT 1N5AN0, Vicious696,
GamerJediJake, and N1ghtHawk13. Keep on fraggin’ trucks.
Well… I’m just writing in to tell you what I think about all of this
crazy hacking that’s been going on. It’s almost overwhelming. I mean… I
checked out all of the links that Foo Mo gave on the home page, and
there’s just so much freakin’ stuff to see. I haven’t been able to check
any of the stuff out, but I’ll talk anyway. Anyhow, I best get started,
eh?
1) The pistol looks really cool. I think that it will be balanced, because
I’ve heard that it’s 5 shots to the head to kill someone and it’s difficult
to get a headshot anyway. The firing rate was way slower, too.
2) The custom game lobby looks pretty sweet. There’s so many options
there, and I think that Bungie has gone out of their way to give us fans
everything we’ve asked for. There was even a Zombies-type game called
Infection.
3) One of the things that interested me the most was the Brute Chopper and
the Hornet. Those were two vehicles that were uncovered in the hex. I think
that the Brute Chopper could possibly be some sort of helicopter. Maybe it
could be a Gyro-copter, that would freakin’ awesome. Master Chief flying
around in this tiny little helicopter, anyway… The Hornet could maybe be
something like the Wasp in Halo CE. The Wasp was a human version of the
banshee. It had machine guns on the sides and a rocket launcher on the
front. It was a little over-powered, as you can tell by my description,
but it was cool non the less.
4) Another thing that really caught my attention was the apparent new
deployables. In the hex overview, it read as follows:
Picked up Invincibility Equipment
Picked up a Radar Jammer
Picked up an Instant Cover
Picked up a Smoke Bomb
Picked up a Bomb
That sounds pretty cool, eh? I guess the Invincibility Equipment is just a
shield that gives you invincibility for a short period of time. The Radar
Jammer probably screws up everybody’s motion sensor. I have no idea what
the Instant Cover could be. Imagine if it was a huge wall that just fell
from the sky and landed in front of you! And then a banana fairy came out
and kisses you left knee… Never mind… The smoke bomb seems cool. I’m
wondering if it might be like a grenade… or an actual bomb like you arm
in assault. And then the Bomb is probably like the Smoke Bomb, except it
blows the crap out of everybody…
Well… that’s just a little bit of what I think. I don’t want to write
anymore because a lot of this stuff may not even get read because of time
constraints. Anyway, thanks, guys! Keep up the good work.
On one hand I think it’s great folks are experimenting and “hacking” around
in the Halo 3 Beta. It’s exciting to explore, wonder, and find new aspects
of the game; weapons, equimpent, achievements, maps, custom games, etc. Information is power, and having that information first can sometimes lead
to a more enriched gaming experience and mabye “getting the jump” on the
competition (espically for professional gamers).
On the other hand, I feel it’s important be careful about putting out too
much information too soon and possibly creating rumors based on
non-evidence or/and assumptions. Rumors and speculator can led to false
expectations and dissapointment. I’d hate to be dissapointed, on any
level, when the “game of the centry” is realeased this Fall. There’s also
something special about waiting to be surprised with the release in
September!
Anyway, just my thoughts. No juicy discoveries or revelations about the
beta to reveal. I will say a good strategy to win a rumble match is to be
patient and when you see an opponent…visualize them like Adam Sandler did
in “The Waterboy” and KILL THEM!!! :-)
Wow, now we can play custom games when and as we like surly this means
bungie will official allow it in the final week of the beta as it is clear
that a 90% functional custom game ability is in the beta, even the magnum
and sword are in, there while it is fun driving around in the wraith and
gliding scross the map in a single bound it would me far more fun if
everyone had the ability to play custom games next week.
I myself were just about to go to bed when i joined one of my xbl friends
who seemed to be playing a custom game, i knew at the time that we could’t
play customs but i just wanted to see the menu, and a great menu at that. So i was sitting there with him but nothing was happening, clearly he was
writing in his diary so i left the game, but to my surprise and with no
effort i was in the custom games menu, yipee, i played with the settings
and before i knew it i pressed start and i was running around at lighting
speeds, before i could turn my 360 off just about everyone on my xbl
friends list were playing custom games, i got an invite and joined, me and
my buddy then enjoyed playing around with the wraith and its turrent.
On a different note both the magnum and the sword felt incomplete by far
with the magnum fireing slowly and the sword just seemed more like a stone
club more then anything and while some tweaking is needed for the wraith it
is a great improvement on the halo 2 version.
hey guys this is lheogoelnidgaarny. try to pronounce it or decode it(read
every odd-numbered letter first, then every even-numbered letter)
my spec on the hack attack
-the pistol looks sweet… but slow. will it still have the same strength
as halo 1? i dont know -i read on the forums about new weapons, equipment, and vehicles. Hornet?
maybe a Human Banshee. One can only hope. more chance of getting a Skyjack
medal. Brute Chopper? almost all brute technology is somehow primitive but
at the same time advanced and effective. Maybe the ugly freaks had some
kind of helicopter or bike that we can now use in multiplayer. imagine a
brute on a low-riding motorcycle with “bad to the bone” in the background.
Excavator? maybe you can dig a foxhole. i dont know.flamethrower? hell
yeah!
overall, im even more psyched than ever about H3. Keep on fragaging
people who talk stuff.
Hey guys AERO here and yesterday I was able to get into the custom lobby
thanks to Tarheels. Im just gonna list some stuff I saw and hopefully they
havent been said already.
1.You can increase or decrease the gravity to affect everybody’s jumping
abilities.
2.You can increase or decrease everybody’s speed.
3.Two people can ride on the wraith. One driving and shooting the main
cannon and the other on the turret.
4.The Magnum’s firing rate is slower and during a match some said it takes
5 headshots to kill someone. It is still dual-wieldable.
5.You can turn on waypoints which is an arrow showing you where all your
teammates are and you can change it to also show the opposing team’s
location.
6.You can change the distance of the sensor.
Well thats pretty much it. I filmed all my custom games and theyre on my
fileshare so just check them out. I even got some footage of me using the
banshee on Valhala to get to space. Keep up the great work Podtacular!
I personally don’t care what people expose. We’re all going to be seeing it
on September 25 anyways, why spoil the build up? It’s like exposing the
plotline to Heroes before the final episode! It just doesn’t work.
Just my personal opinion. Keep on fraggin’ VIPs.
so i checked out those links and there all pretty cool, imagine if you
could have like a dirt bike styled helmet for the master chief or a paint
ball mask I know its a dumb idea but I still say that would be awesome,
also the new elite armors sound pretty cool I’m wondering if they will
have any special ability’s like jump higher or higher shields power just
trying to imagine that, it would give a whole new edge to the way we all
play halo
well anyway good job with the show and keep it up guys
Hello JVB, Foo mo, and (insert guest host name here). I have never
submited before I want to be active in this community. First off i have
heard many things about this hacking issue. Many people have said it is
wrong and many people have said it is perfectly fine, I don’t really have
an opinion but would like to know yours. Most of the things I have seen in
these files looks real but I believe there is more to it than this. I think
bungie did this on purpose and they wanted people to find this. They have
done it before with Myst and the Cortana letters(correct me if im wrong).
I myself have gotten into the custom games menu and checked out all the
new game types but was not able to play them. I thnk that the new sword is
awesome but the lunge should not have been reduced. The Wraith sounds
better but I think the driver should be in control of the plasma turrent
and the gunner be in charge of the mortar. The pistol seems really weak
but I guess you are supposed to duel wield them to do anything, sort of
like the smg. I am really happy they finally put infection in. I played it
on perfect dark and in Halo 2 and with the flood models it will be amazing.
I have gotten out of Valhalla once but was pwned by a laser and I flew
away. I am glad you were able to hear, or in your case read my opinion.
Keep on Fraggin’ Trucks.

Hey podtacular it’s Daboog.
a few days ago me and some friends unlocked the custums game menu in
halo3.
so we set up a game were we could run really fast and jump really high.
we messing around when I told one of my friends to stand still I backed up
as far as I could
with the sword in my hand and with super speed I ran in to him and it
accually hurt!
I’m not kidding.
well thanks for reading my letter keep on spike granading mongeese!!!
LOTS of new Halo 3 beta treats for all the good boys and girls. I’ve spent
some time on the common games and I must say… my god… it’s full of
options.
Some of the options that really piqued my interest: Indestructible
Vehicles, ball/flag/bomb carrier shield decay. The new “Tag” game mode
which is a kind of backwards upside-down Juggernaut. (This is where, as
the juggernaut, when you kill someone THEY become the juggernaut, and you
only receive points for killing a juggernaut, not from killing others AS
the juggernaut.)
I haven’t spent a lot of time with the pistol, yet, unfortunately, but the
sword… the sword is much closer to how I’ve always felt it should be,
anyway. It now has ammo, shorter lunge distance, and slower to switch back
and forth. Perfect, Bungie. Perfect.
And then there’s the Wraith. I’ve talked to a lot of people that think the
new Wraith is even more garbage than the Halo 2 version, and I completely
disagree. It is much more viable as an anti-infantry platform then it was
in the past, so it’s much closer to the Scorpion in terms of combat
capabilities. It’s been a blast to drive!
Anyway, keep fragging trucks, stop talking stuff, and eat your bacon
waffle!
Until next time I’m Foo Mo Jive (and this is)
