Exclamation *** ACURAZINE Bungie Group (Halo Reach Sessions, every Wednesday @ 7PM, PST) ***

Hey everyone,

Since Clan support is not available in Halo 3, I created an "AcuraZine" bungie group on bungie.net

AcuraZine Bungie Group
1) If you haven't done so already, I highly suggest creating a Bungie Account for yourself if you play Halo 3 (or even Halo 2).

2) After creating your Bungie Account, click "My Groups" at the top, do a search for "AcuraZine" and join the group. I've made it a private group for now, but if you have friends that want to join, send them the word.
As soon as you join the group, post a message in this thread and I'll accept the request.



*** Update (09/11/2010) ***


See this post for updated information about the group:

I joined... guess what my gamertag is.

On a side note, does anyone know how to change my Windows Live ID e-mail address? My gamertag is linked to my OLD e-mail, which I never use anymore.

We're up to 12 people so far.


Last night we had anywhere between 5-8 people and played a range of games from Rumble Pit, Team Slayer and Big Team Battle. It was a lot of fun.

I signed on while you guys were playing but couldn't figure out how to link up...how does one join a party (or a friend playing the game) when you sign on and see your friends already playing?

If a game is open, you can usually just join up. Other times, you send out invites to other gamers which they can accept and then you're automatically brought into that party. That is how I usually get people to form a big group, like last night.

Thanks for trying guys....i thought everyone was ignoring me, lol.

my xbox live sometimes has issues....but I'll be on again tonight so i'll give it another go.

I also wonder if someone can be invited to a party by anyone in the party, or just the party leader? I would guess everyone, but you never know.

Last night when I wasn't the party leader after accepting an invite I couldn't invite more people. So the party leader, who was Smashington, made me the party leader and I then invited people. I wish they'd let party members invite others and give the party leader the option to kick people s/he doesn't want or after a member invites someone, they are only let in after the leader says yes/no.

I can remove your "I Go To Costco" but I can't add freesamples.

So I removed your old one, You'll need to add your new one yourself.

They really need an invite feature on this thing.

I finally got the internet set up in my house. I should be home by 10PM tonight (Pacific Standard Time). Who's up for online co-op? How should we get in touch? I'm new to Xbox Live, but I do have Live Gold. My gamertag is AIR KO8E.

Hey Sly, since my gold membership expired, do I have to go buy another Gold membership or do I just add points? Thanks

So how are we supposed to play with each other? Forgive me, I'm new to this Xbox Live thing. I've just been playing random Match-making slayer games.

How do you look for a specific game on Xbox Live for Halo 3 and how do you join a campaign?

^^Same here. I have had XBOX Live Gold for about a year now, but never really played online until last weekend, I've just been playing random matches in matchmaking like you.

It's pretty easy.
If you've already loaded up Halo 3, just go to your friends list (press Y). From there, just chose the friend you want to play with, and chose "send gave invite" or "join party" if they are already in a party. You with then will be in the lobby together.

Same sort of thing for campaign coop.

Send me (osteomyelitis) a friend request if you want someone to play with, although I don't have a mic, so i can't really communicate.

Happy gaming

There were a bunch of us on last night. SSM, Smashington, AcesHigh, GunMetal and Big Nasty got in a few custom games and Big Team Battles before we split up. I'd say it was between 8-10 eastern or so.
