some people online told me this but i have to check: is it true that you can't get recon if you ever have been banned?

What do you mean by "banned" ? You mean from Xbox Live entirely ? If it was one of those temporary one-week bans, I don't think it matters.

If it was a permanent ban, an armor permutation does you little good seeing as how you'd never be able to use it.

If you have ever been banned for something like EXP boosting, cheating, network tampering or anything of that sort your chances of Recon are pretty much slim to none.

That's assuming that you're trying to unlock Recon through an event like what's happening on the 7th this month. I'm pretty sure it doesn't make a difference if you unlocked Recon through the Vidmaster challenges.

on the 7th you can win it by beating a bunging four man team in a game. i was banned from getting exp for two weeks because of boosting

on bungie they said that if you are to win it you have to be preffered by tons of people

well thats no problem, but all i want to know about is the ban issue.

Frankly, I don't understand people's fascination with Recon. It doesn't even look that nice.



The ODST helmet and Hayabusa shoulders look nicer, to be honest.

You never know, I remember something very vague in an older weekly update possibly suggesting you won't even be able to by these methods either.

By the way, you have a picture of recon in ugly colors, and without someone else's own personal mix of other armor also.

So bungie staff teams play the 7th playlist?

precisely, except instead of having the playlist 7 on the 7th it will be bungie vs the world playlist. i just want to know if you can get recon if you have ever been banned. please just answer my question without more qustions

as long as you havnt hacked or anything it should be ok.

don't know what the big shizz is about Recon. Omfg! A guy with Recon! It's just a stupid armor permutation, like ffs im still using the beginner armor stuff.

True, you dont even see the armor while you play, even though i use hayabusa shoulder and scout helm...
