Title: So, I have Blue Flame
Post by: HomerSPC on June 14, 2011, 04:46:45
Download the Bungie Mobile app on your iOS device and you can get Blue flames. You also get access to the "Bungie" nameplate as well as all star.

Also, I can give out 7 all stars to anyone wanting one.

Well, I must say I don't understand why they're doing this.
It's just armor or a star next to your name.

I prefer my plain Mk. VI and my 7th Column nameplate, thank you very much.


EDIT: Also, do the flames only work with the Haunted Helmet, or can you apply them to any helmet?
If you can't, prepare to go back to the fishbowl era but this time even worse...

Obviously, bungie is promoting thier app like crazy, because it's all part of the plan. At some time in the future, every device with the app on it will begin to use mind control to instruct it's user to gather in one place to begin construction on the giant slingshot.

So instead of giving us some cool stuff like Maps, they give us armor that none of us care about.

Oh wait, I forgot what the Bungie community was.

I can understand them giving away the Nameplate, but Blue Flames? They should have saved that :(

I'll take a star if you still have em.

Might as well fool the nubs while I can >:-D

If you want to be an all star, just post your GT here. I have room for 7 to give away :)

U Mad Bro?

Almost all the reach maps suck, compared to Halo 3 they are rubbish.

Real mature.

And yes, most of them are low quality, but who's to say that the new ones will be too?

Something felt weird to me about all the built in maps being straigt from campaign. Just throwing out that observation.

Wrong - the maps were made first for Multiplayer and were then applied to the campaign. That's why they either don't play well on the campaign or aren't, at all, used.

If it's true, then all I have to say is this: Bungie must not have even tried on the campaign.

I meant that because there was no variety in the maps, multiplayer has been pretty dull.

Do post your feelings about the quality of the MM maps in a thread creted for their cause.
Anyway,
I think it's a bit weird to give all this stuff so easily...Do these flames and stars last only for a limited time or what?

It's like this:
Bungie: "Hey, we're leaving this series, so let's just throw it all away by giving people exclusives!"
343: "You do know someone else is taking over this series right?"

Are you implying that they can't worry about both?

Aesthetics or not, the do matter. If they wouldn't care, why not just give everyone everything? Good way to ruin all the little value they have and truly make them aesthetics.

You mean like they already did  ???

And @Scat: They could worry about adding Master Chief's codpiece for all I care, but what has more importance?

Most of the stuff found in armory still requires a certain amount of credits to purchase. If one wouldn't care AT ALL, they would give people Haunted and Security helmets for free.

Though now that I've thought about it: Since the Star nameplate and Blue Flames were Bungie's thing, they get to decide what to do with them, right?

That's the armory though. You get what you payed for.

Would you rather get to Inheritor just to have everyone capable of getting it, or send in a mediocre picture to an All Stars competition where there is 117 winners in that specific competition, and then find out that people who play in a playlist 5 times unlock another playlist where they can get the same star? Which was rarer in the first place?

I think we really shouldn't compare something that can be done in a day and something that can be done legitly in 3 years.

Because there is no comparison.

People who have Haunted before all this< Star nameplate before all this. And it remains that way.

I disagree. Inflation has caused the star to be less valuable, and soon it will be worthless.

As I said in the other thread, cut this out. If this continues, I will lock every thread that becomes an argument over Bungie's decisions.

It's a debate, we aren't arguing. I think it's nice that we can do this without having to resort to insults and troll comments.
