So you found the bug in the lunge. Did you ever consider that maybe the lunge is the bug? Get rid of the lunge and you won't have to rewrite code. It will save you a lot of time if you just get rid of the stupid lunge.

Theramins rok.

My friend's really into Radiohead, so at one point we were always talking about their "rare" instrument (can't remember what it's called at the moment) which is very similar to a Theramin. When we were visiting Montreal we went into a music store dealing in exotic instruments, and they had one, they even let us try it out, very nice!

haha sploosh! great update, excited to see that level with the murky water and god beams. but one thing i hope i see is the ability to save your films to ur computer or dashboard so u can put them on ur computer. i dont have enough money to buy batteries for a camera, anytime i use doble A's on my camera they die about 20 mins after use, so i can never have my flim rolling at the time i get a killtacular that is amazing, so bungie, plz add this into the final game, it would save me alot of money and help me make a montage to show my true skil and become recognized.

Great Update! I'm going to get a ticket! Haha. I'm just surprised they didn't say anything about leaked footage.

Just looking at the water in the beta was good, but it seemed like a supermodel effect. Beautiful on the surface, but nothing underneath. Hopefully you guys just haven't gotten around to that yet. Great Update!!

My Best Bungie moment: finally beating all the Halo games on solo legendary.
My Worst Bungie moment: not seeing giant stuffie grunts in the Bungie store.

Awesome update, so there are wraith tanks on Valhalla... Cant wait to see new maps and to hear the music

I love listening to what Marty has to say.


It's so friggin' sexy.

Hot update!

Anyone else notice this?

"That means that if you try a speed run, for example – the music will adapt and conform to what you’re doing, as well what we know is going to happen (a cinematic interlude, or a large, scary encounter, for example) and it’s something game composers have had to deal with forever."

Cube mapped water?

There's something you don't hear everyday :o

In other words, shaddup and die, graphics whiners!

  • 06.16.2007 12:11 AM PDT

Never eat yellow snow, unless of course, you spilled your Mt. Dew!

Yippee for #73 post! Whatever! Water! Again! Actually I was pretty impressed in the Beta and the first time on Valhalla took a moment as I dipped into the stream to reflect on what I had heard for oh so many months. I am ready to hear some more ambigous, not so descriptive, descriptions of some of the other maps. Campaign would be nice but I actually don't want that spoiled for me. I will just plug my ears, make random noises, as I still read about it.

The Noble and Heroic DriedMoss, member of Reaching Perfection and the ever-growing kick-ass Halo community.

I am still concerned about these loading screens between levels they keep talking about. The below text was copied from this update, and is a repeated paragraph from a previous weekly update;

“I also saw a new effect that right now is in a loading screen between levels, but may end up in some other place. And it’s AWESOME. Not the world’s most technically challenging thing, but just a cool, moody graphical interlude that really sets the tone and mystery inherent in Halo 3. Props I think, to Adrian Perez, but I am sure I will be corrected if I’m wrong. Again, just a cool, thematic almost screen-savery effect, but a lovely one that fits in beautifully with our UI scheme.”

Now what does that mean? Does this mean that the words "Loading", "Halo 3", and "Love Bungie" will flash on the screen between levels? I hope I am reading this wrong and the loading screens they speak of are the ones we are familiar with from Halo 2 and not Halo: Combat Evolved. Let us be saved from ever seeing a loading screen between levels in the main campaign.

I need to know what was deleted!

And i can't wait to see the new effects myself!

And to the one above me, if we have loading screens, does it really matter? As long as it isn't a long wait i don't really care if we have it or not.
