Do you think Bungie giving recon away a Mistake?

Even if you have ODST, you still have to get the quasi challenging Vidmasters.

Yeah same, except some kid asked if me and my friend worked for bungie. We told him yes. And he was all like "OMG can i play you for reconz" It was funny.

it wasnt really a bad idea even tho half of halo is going to have it in two weeks. at least you have to get through hard acheivements to get throught to get recon.

I got recon and now im only wearing the shoulders.

Honestly, I dont care how people act about the armor because Recon is my favorite armor set (Same with Mark V) and I dont care how much of an ass people can be, its my favorite armor and I hated not being able to obtain it. So who cares if they are bragging? Its just virtual armor and the people that are constantly bragging about it are taking it just as far as the people that are incredibly offended by it...

i think it was pretty stupid. yeah it probably helped them sell a ton more games and it defends the 60$ price tag for odst but now recon isnt special. everyone is going to have it or almost everyone. the people that actually earned it shouldnt brag, but they did deserve it and now itll make there accomplishments not really even count. you could argue all day both ways though this is just my opinion.

I don't think it was a bad Idea to give away Recon through the achivements, but they should have made it harder. I mean it just takes time, not that much skill to get the achivements. Recon needs to be saved for the best of the best, not little kids that have a whole day to burn playing firefight with 4 of there "friends". If only they had an armor to replace Recon, to give out to those who earned it the hard way by doing something awesome, then it wouldn't be too bad.

When has Recon became something that is associated to people who are godly, or have immense skill, or is famous, or whatever? It was a present to people that impressed Bungie- Actually, no, it was an early gift that Bungie gave for impressing them. They were gonna give Recon to everyone, it's just that If Bungie liked you or something you did or made, you got the armor early, not exclusively.

I don't mind that they gave away recon. I just wished it had been harder. The were called Vidmasters because of Marathon. The Marathon Vidmaster was far harder than any one from halo.If it had been my decision these would hav been the vidmasters
Obtain General rank
enter a playlist with 777 exp on the 7th
Keep annual
Keep Deja vu
Beat all of odst on legendary with melee only
Survive 7 sets on legendary with four people
and I guess keep the skulls one.
