> Early October is what they said. Not Late October. It will be preparing the playlists and new TU gametypes for the launch of CE: Anniversary using our feedback on the entire thing. These forums are going to become a very fun place when the TU is actually out.
Huh, I thought for some reason it was late October. Guess I’m wrong if you heard otherwise. Yeah these forums will definitely be fun! Cant wait!
> Yes. The TU is on the arrival. Our lives will forever be changed after that day. And it’s coming out within the next two weeks. I’m just hoping that 343i will release gametypes for us to test out off of their own FileShares since it will be the only way we can test the new TU changes. Not a second of the day goes by without me thinking of the TU.
You and me both. Trust me, you and me both. I sooooooo can’t wait another day. No joke 
> > Yep pretty much. 
Then, the beta hoppers will be sometime in early October.

> Fix’d
Haha thanks. I had no idea it was early October. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Guys, there will be a BETA Title Update available for download right before Beta Hoppers goes LIVE. After everyone has tested it and posted their feedback, the final version of the title update available for download in October or November will include the final updates.
Hey 343!
When someone goes for an assassination, the shield shouldn’t pop on impact of the knife. It makes getting Yoink’s too easy as opposed to Showstoppers.
And it’s conter-productive to encourage getting Yoink medals AND have a commendation for getting Assassinations.

No. The TU launches late September, with Beta Hoppers coming early October for us to test out the new settings the TU offers. The gametypes will then be adjusted accordingly (or kept the same) when the Anniversary playlists come, with no additional TU.
When will the update come out for Halo Reach (no bloom etc.) as well as all the new maps???
KTHX
The TU was said to be released late September/early October. And the new maps come out with HCEA, i.e. Nov. 15th.
Proboly right after the GoW 3 release id think
tomarrow would be awesome for the one year anniversary of halo reach.
No release date is known for the Title Update but maybe tomorrow or shortly after since tomorrow is Reach’s one year anniversary.
I sure hope it’s tomorrow 
I cant wait for it, not a big fan of bloom, i adjusted to it but it would be 100x easier with out it 
Thanks for all the comments guys
I’m certain that the TU will arrive later in the month, best to just wait it out.
They said PROBABLY mid to late september, so that is between the 15th-30th of september.
It’s being released September 21st.
The game is mediocre at best. The TU has taken over a year since release to get here and is coming out at the worst possible time - with all the big games coming out and whatnot. Not to mention the weapons are boring (DMR… blot blot blot blot blot; Pistol… blut blut blut blut blut… you get the point), and the maps are shocking in design and aesthetics.
A lot of people have been driven off by the lack of support from Bungie over the last year. From the first week of release, we were getting the same complaints as we are now, and yet nothing has happened. Whether it’s because of the transition from Bungie to 343i, or some other reason, it’s just disappointing.
All in all, I wouldn’t be surprised if the TU did very little to drive people back to Reach. Hell, we still don’t even have a real ranking system; no one likes that Arena -Yoink-. Getting put down in rank because you didn’t play for a week isn’t fun. And then being reset every few months is just ridiculous.
Here’s hoping for a Halo 4 which has the same amount of support as Halo 3 did.
Just my opinion. Do you think that the TU will drive people back to Halo?
I don’t think the TU will bring many people back. Personally, I don’t plan on playing Reach anymore (and haven’t played it for a month and a half). It’s just boring to me.
Yes and no, it will please the hardcore Halo fans so they will stay/come back, but casuals who make up the majority will kinda be meh, they might stay they might come back. Your right about it being a little to late though, still better late then never, something is always better then nothing.
I think reverting to the H2/H3 ranking system would be the best option to bring people back.
I don’t think that people want a new game yet (H4), I think that people want a better game (Reach TU + DLC).
