  • TeamSwat for Halo 2 was killed due to large population playing and a need to balance playlists
  • Halo 3 will have better and more thought out counter-measures to modders and jerk players
  • Halo 3 will have "more tools to record statistics and Achievements" and Bungie.net will continue support
  • Halo 3 will not have a "cover" system, as the game is not about using cover
  • Bungie may work on Arcade title in the future, but not currently
