Dude....are you that ignorant???

Posted by: Xc0mmand0
great vidoc. i think x button is mine/shield grenade. one suggestion is to fix the graphics of the weapons on the hud and make it so the fire looks like it comes from the gun not your face.



If you would read the new News Topic they posted. You would know that this was taken from Halo Alpha....Which means thats not going to be the final product, of course the gun fire is going to come from the actual weapon itself....Halo 3 is the NXT revolutionary game that is using the 360 to its full potential, you think they would be that stupid to make it look like you were vomiting bullets from Master Chiefs Visor???? Please man...get real


i know its the alpha, im not retarded. the graphics already look great and they will be better, but im saying on the improved that was one of the weak points.

Ok. A Few things Id like to add. 1) Does anyone remember that Game Informer Magazine from like last September??? Well in there they alreay said that there would be deployable turrets and in the background of the picts u could see 2-3 turrets planted. 2) The bubble shield needs to be gone from this game because of the main thing......NOOBS OVER DOING IT!!! The only way I feel that it is fine to stay by MY STANDARDS is if a) your able to turn it off in the game's settings when you make you own gameypes. b) It dosen't last for more than 3-4 seconds. c) If the shield stopps them from shooting you....you cannot shoot them. In other words if my bullets dont touch you your bullets cant touch me.. Now on to the Trip Mines. Yes, a very clever Idea but overall it dosent feel like halo. That goes into the realm of Socom with the C4 planting and Splinter Cell with the door mines. Halo is about gunning and outsmartng and tactics....Now im not going to straight up deny these new features before trying them, but From what I can see. The new features are messing up what I'm straight used to. Which makes me not want to buy it. Bubble Shields and Trip Mines sound and look cool but the way we ALL have played halo for the past 7 years I feel that they are evolving it just a little too much from the cool @$$ gameplay. Thats my 2 cents. Ill use it and more than likely get used to it, but itd be much much better if you can have a function to turn it on/off.

from what weve heard there's going to be an insane ammount of custimization, so i don't think you'll have to worry about it, they will probably be turn off-able.

Here is image of the spartan with what seems to be turret in hand. here


looks more like a remake of the flamethrower to me.... just throwing it out there...


thats what i thought at first but as i look at it more the more it looks like a warthog turret.

  • 04.10.2007 11:06 AM PDT

lmao, i thought you meant there was an elite on a screen, then i realized you were talking about the xbox's. Yeah they look sweet, are those the 100 gig hard drives? or whatever size they are.

OMG. Please tell me you're not serious with that comment. You don't need HDMI for 1080p, when will you realize that? 360 games can be output in 1080p through component and VGA already.

  • 04.10.2007 11:08 AM PDT

I think X is deployable weaponry.

i agree thats what it looks like, but what about the stuff above the guys head? looks like something that might vent from a flamethrower, or *gasp* a PLASMA flamethrower!

Looks good, the only bad thing is that I'm not going to be around a 360 from May 17 to June 13...this sucks.

i looked at it again and its definitly a chain gun turret from the back of a hog. though i wonder what happened to the bottom of it(stand it sits on back of hog), and how would you take it off of the back?

the first time i watched it I thought i saw a jump boost or jetpack but after going back and pausing it you can see there is a small lift on the ground and he jumps into it. I believe the bubble shield will be a pick up and you use it with the x button. The trip mine will be toggled between stickys and frags. Any one agree?

i thought the same thing like a jump boost or jetpack but after going back and pausing it you can see there is a small lift on the ground and he jumps into it. I believe the buble shield will be a pick up and you use it with the x button. The trip mine will be toggled between stickys and frags. Any one agree?


No it will not. The trip mine will be used by using X the same as the bubble shield. I don't know how you people manage to breathe.

  • 04.10.2007 11:21 AM PDT

Sebas

is it just me or at the 3 min and 1 second...where a blue is shooting a yellow...the yellow jumps on a fence and starts to climb it before being killed...did anyone else see that or is it just me?

  • 04.10.2007 11:25 AM PDT

I just noticed that if you pause it at 4:39/4:40 you can see what looks like the bubble shield sitting on top of the small wall....

thanx for stating the obvious for people who dont know(not insulting you, but them). if it were to be with the grenades it would have been siting next to the spike on the hud. but if you look at 00:58, you can see that the special pickup as ill call it is next to the left of the secondary weapon when picked up.
