What are you, stupid? ~ Asuka Langley Soryu

Posted by: meier117
Okay, am I the only one to wonder when we are going to get an update worthy of my time. I mean c'mon who gives a rats @$$? I sure in the beep don't care about water graphics that have been discussed in about a million updates and i also don't care about the warthog info. for two reasons: One none of this information is new, and twoi already know everything essential about a warthog so Frankie i don't want to be mean but please do your job and get some excitement for halo 3 instead of playing the game or whatever it is you do??

P.S. Don't comment on saying im dumb or stupid because im not going to check back on this topic and so you'd be wasting your time!


Im sorry but....

*in reply to random on first page who i cant remember as i already posted this then edited and also in reply to noob-meier117)

sleep (hrs) + coffee (L) / time left in day (being 5 mins) = icky thingies

so as you can see, even with their monsterous error checking abilities built into their brain........ would give reason to lots of bad stuff.
also another easy way to get round those errors of death is one i found is quite simple.....
do now, wont have to in 200yrs. makes sense + rest of world uses it = Yes?

not you and "now if it was indestructable"
yay CE, ahh fun in the gulch, mowing down warp nubs but the team loads, capping the flag then managing to go straight through the inside of their base and out the other side, causing bafflment, lots of raging and me danging on top of the hog in the middle of the field with the flag untill my head was nearly taken off.... ahh such fun... and continues to be untill halo 2 vista arrives.... and then we start alll over again, with more fun stuff and gfx that are 'bout 10 more yumminess then the Xboxes, one good thing about the pc release coming out after. im hoping the ai has been given affew skill sticks for the vista version. as is required.
now all i will be needing is a 360 for H3, and Hwars ^^. a couple 8800's along with a refit. and a physX card. and shineyness of +1 will be at my command
you guys @ bungie do enjoy making this expensive for me. but what-ya-gonna-do not like i have any other choice. :D

Am I the first or only one to realise that the Warthog actually FASTER than the Mongoose? The Mongoose has a top speed of 60mph, while the Warthog has a top speed of 78mph! what happened to the Mongoose being a "getting you from point A to B as quickly as possible" to "I eat the dust of Warthogs"?

If any of you are having trouble with the Quicktime thing, just save it to your computer, then right click -> Open With -> Internet Explorer. It worked really well for me!

Thanks Groovemeister! That worked great :D

Just noticed, the border lights up 7 times for 1 full rotation of the hog. What a co-incidence! ;)

frankie out of high octane energy suppliments...gon for more
me guzzles Xs when energy is required. as late nights and 3dsmax do not comply!
double headshotting elite before he finishes his 'get into raith' animation unscoped @ around 70m is quite hax, though too bad raith piloting s illegal in ce. otherwise much fun i would have. instead i am stuck with a very large, very heavy. expensive, and complicated paper weight. and it doesnt even light up and make noises.... hmmm they are muc hmore fun when you let the elite live so he can go on his merry way 'trying' to kill me....failing that, he jst settles for tking all his little grunt buddies. :D

oh and for Hasty... hogs are just better, is law,
r-e-s-p-e-c-t later boys, im outta here

I Cant wait to get my Molinjer covered backside into the seats of these new Worthogs, It sounds like the varriants that were originally concept for Halo 2 Are Now in Halo 3!!!! THANK YOU BUNGIE! I I cant wait to drive the...
M831 TT (which eliminates the support weapon in favor of four side-facing passenger seats), the M864 A (with an enclosed passenger compartment and treads in place of wheels), and the M914 RV (equipped with a towing winch and a heavy duty motor and gear system).
I often wonder what a Hog would be like with treads. I really hope that these Hogs make it into the final game!
Great Update Frankie, Now Lets Ride!!!

new hogs! i hope they make it into the H3 Mp maybe even the rocket launching hog as a quick option yes or no for custom games. the towing cable thing sounds sweet too, it would be cool to pull turrets and debris around to make barriers. either way i know bungie will make h3 prime.

sorry for doublepost but i just realized that this is the H3 weekly and i have to say that thats pretty damn lame. the updates over the past few weeks have been really lame, i can understand doing a specs report on the man cannon or the nail grenade but the warthog? i could understand if there were confirmed new usable hog types and picks and specs for them. C'mon bungie im a fiendin for me some Halo3 stuffs i needs it, these updates are my weekly untill the beta launch!! >.<

Shut it, whiny. There is no "Halo 3 Weekly Update", just the Bungie Weekly Update. If you read this report carefully it offers hints as to exciting prospects for Halo 3, and it's pretty damned cool (and well put-together) overall. Furthermore it's come out 3 days since the last Weekly Update, so it's extra: Be gracious they're giving you any info at all, and show some damned respect.

God knows if people complained like you are and I was writing the updates, there wouldn't be any for a few weeks.

i don't know about this but was just thinking about the numbers and changed them into dates, me being in the united states month first (7) and date next (13) so July 13th.....it being the 7th month of 2007 seems like it has Bungie something written all over it. but then it being Friday the 13th makes it a bit more strange...they might release something that day but not sure *maybe the halo 2 maps or halo 3 beta*...just guessing here

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

...probably the all time favorite vehicle in the entire Halo universe.

In the Halo universe? Pfft. Its my mostest favorite vehicle in the ENTIRE universe. I can't think of any videogame that would not be improved if it just had Warthogs in it.

Heck, I might even play my daughter's Barbie Pet Rescue game if it had Warthogs in it.
