Bungie brings back the SWAT

"Dooon't vote fo' SWAT!!! SWAT izzz chieeeckeeen!"

...that conon o brien reference might be too obscure.

That MLG Playlist is about to be crazy. People have been wanting that for too long.

Anyone wanna party up when this comes out and have an X3F SWAT Team? If so just send me a friend request at GT: HackBook Pro

Note to Bungie: Maybe it's time to make it a regular playtype.

Bungie...should...bring..back...Zombie..mode..Braainns!!


I never played this mode before so what is like serious Team slayer or objective except you get double XP?

SWAT is a fast-paced gametype where players have no shields but increased body health. You start with a BR, Magnum, and two grenades and there are no weapons on the map. One headshot with BR or Magnum kills.

Makes for very fast play and is a ton of fun. Helps you develop that "sniper twitch" :)

Once again. Stop with the lolcat captions. It reduces this site's value every single time. I mean "I can has recon" makes no sense. This lolcat fad is nothing more than just that, a fad. Let's move on with our lives to grow, not degrade ourselves to idiots.

@Samuel Vimes: Clearly you do not listen to the Fancast. If you did you would know that is a joking expression we use on a regular basis.

In fact the term was coined by the team at Bungie, specifically Frank O'Connor during the Bungie podcast.

We like to have fun with our readers here. But thanks for commenting either way.

@Xav de Matos

No I don't listen to the podcasts. And while I understand it's a joking situation, it is jokes like these that keep this fad going. Joking or not it's ruining society left and right when great, unique, ideas are overlooked, while some kid with an IQ of a melted popsicle can start up some internet fad that makes our supposid supreme intelligence, exactly the opposite.

I understand though that you're using it jokingly. It's still disgusting, but it doesn't stop me from checking the site every 5 minutes.

I'm suprised it's not going to be a permanent playlist people where playing that like crazy, i liked it.

And is the MLG playlist just going to be Hardcore with a different name?

@Samuel Vimes: Uhh dude medicate yourself. Swat was the ONLY reason I kept playing halo 2 and is still the reason I play it today. It should always be included in Halo 3.

@4 I agree 100%

Why can't they just bring it back period .... You know for good.

More regular playlists = more variety = a chance at maybe (and I stress maybe) taking the #1 spot on live again.

Personally I'm not a big MP person but I might check both this and Grifball but since you're all for twitch-shooting, shouldn't you all be playing UT/3/2004 right now?

Jakub.

I actually like more Team Fortress 2.I was checking Halo 3 since well I bought the Heroic maps back in January and I never used them until now(Damn you Bungie for making them free) and my Wii needs to be repaired.

Also that the new TF2 maps won't arrive soon to the xbox live.

I wish Griftball would come back.

Samuel Grimes is precisely right. lolcatz are the whatever the hell it is is sad and weird - makes me groan every time I see it.

thanks for explaining what SWAT actually is, since 360fanboy are too shite to.

@Ciaran Gallagher: If you clicked the trackback link you'd see the full description.

Sorry, didn't know that would be too hard for you.
