Overall, there were over 1.1 billion kills registered. Visual Flair Announcement and Details Visual Flair refers to nameplate emblems, seen in pre-game lobbies next to players' Gamertags, and can be customized. There are 12 nameplate emblems available in Halo: Reach: - The Septagon emblem � Unlocked once gamertag is linked to Bungie.net account. - The DMR emblem � Unlocked by being a Bungie: PRO subscriber. - Marathon emblem � Unlocked by playing the full version of Marathon: Durandal on Xbox LIVE Arcade to enable the Jjaro Terminal emblem. - Halo 1 emblem � Unlocked by entering your Halo PC/Mac product key to enable this emblem.

Credits are earned for killing enemy players, capping objectives, and the like, and you earn extra credits for medals earned during the match (i.e. Double Kill). There is also a victory bonus when you win. There will also be "dailies" which should each take around an hour or less to complete. They are daily

Campaign is 4 player and it has matchmaking support, same goes for firefight. @above For Bungie it is the last halo game, who knows what Micro$oft will do with it.

[quote] Jet118 : Only Bungie can do Halo, which is why I'm leaving with Bungie. :D [/quote] LOL. I don't think it's going to be THAT bad, but it's probably not going to feel like halo. Treyarch did a good job at making a call of duty, like Infinity Ward did. Even though those games suck. :s Alot of people from Bungie are going to be working for 343 anyway, so I've got my hopes.

Alright back, will continue updating. And Bungie will be collaborating and giving advice to 343 to help them make Halo 4 successful.

I don't like multiplayer just because if I shoot something, I want it to die. Shields are gay.
