===Affect on [[Bungie.net]]===

On the night of February 4th hundreds of people gathered on [[Bungie.net|Bungie.nets']] [[Halo 3]] forum and on www.halo3.com to talk of the beta. Most people thought that beta regression sign ups would start at 12:00AM EST, but this did not happen, with no words from [[Bungie]] or [[Microsoft]] on when It was going to take place, the forum went into a frenzy. As many as 3 full pages of beta threads were locked in a short amount of time. Once again, at 3:00AM EST (12:00AM PST, [[Bungie]] time) the time came and passed, but large numbers of locked threads. Finally, dismay of many Halo fans who stayed up more then 24 hours waiting, the entry for Phase Two of the Beta Started at 1:00PM EST and within a ~~minuet~~ the www.halo3.com sever overloaded and crashed and did not come back online until 1:40PM EST. With many people dismayed about this there was another flurry of locked threads, but as access to the site came back it died down.
