"I also animated the first-person CENSORED (both single and dual shot), so that should be in the game and working now…it looks pretty cool, but it’s definitely a lot weaker than CENSORED and it has CENSORED now, so people are probably going to CENSORED and CENSORED. Oh well, all’s fair in the cruel world of gameplay balance."

Could it be the long disputed return of the mighty pistol! I hope it is cuz now its weaker, so it'll actually be a pistol, not a compact-death-machine

I hope so !!!!!
also what was this all about??
* I did a couple of small changes to the weapon/damage code to handle a bad guy too nuts for the existing systems. Nuts in the sense that he has CENSORED where death comes out of and two separate CENSORED. Oh yeah and he’s big and mean, kind of like a Tyrannosaurus.

hope its a new type of hunter or somthing that duel wheilds fuel rod canons coz that whould be a real chalange from long range.

Great update, but going to Subnova scared me so greatly, it brigs back horrible memories...

Two things:

1. I've heard conflicting comments on whether or not vehicle damage will affect the performance of a vehicle; Both from credible sources (Xbox magazine and the E3 2004 multiplayer demo)...does it, or not?

2. Any word on any post game carnage report changes? In goldeneye, for n64, the postgame would tell you what player killed you most and which player you killed most. I wonder if they will include that stat in Halo 2.

Cool update

"For the past several weeks we've been reviewing all of our UI and Xbox Live plans. This is the hard part, polishing the design and solidifying the final specs. Should have happened sooner, but we've always known we were on to something cool, and now I'm even more certain that Halo 2 on Xbox Live is going to be incredible. I'm mainly referring to the whole LAN party over the Internet experience, or as we sometimes refer to it the Halo 2 "virtual couch". It's going to take some getting used to because we're doing things that have never been done before. But once people are used to it I'm confident everything else will seem broken."

[color=white]Could this mean that there will be no split-screen play in Halo 2? Say that ain't the case! Frankie, can you elaborate?[/color]

"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing." Albert Einstein
"You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty." Gandhi

The geometry and environments guys have been pretty much left to their own devices for a long time, but now they'll have a lot more to-ing and fro-ing with the designers as they tweak bits of environment to suit gameplay requirements. Dave says that while it may seem like they're cutting it close; this is a lot further ahead than it was on the first game, by comparison and with a whole heck of a lot more environments!


THIS GAME IS GOING TO BE HUGE!!!

Does this translate to a longer campaign mode, to anyone else?

Yes in the Official XBox Magazine there was an article awhile ago and part of it mentioned that the levels were going to be huge. The example they gave was at least 4 times as big as Assault on the Control Room.

[Quote] And to me, and to a lot of people. I translated it as below:

I also animated the first-person pistol (both single and dual shot), so that should be in the game and working now…it looks pretty cool, but it’s definitely a lot weaker than the first game and it has no scope now, so people are probably going to piss and moan. Oh well, all’s fair in the cruel world of gameplay balance. [quote]

They have to have split-screen co -op and multiplayer....don't they...?I read somewhere that you can now link up 16 xboxes for 8v8 battles...that means one on each box...Oh man, no no no, it has to keep split screen, they have to, periode.

okay considering they said it will be something that hasn't been done before, I'm pretty sure split screen won't be taken away. They did co-op for Lord of the Rings Return of the King, and it wasn't split screen, so obviously that has been done before.

Yah it is cool that you are able 2 have differnt vehicles and weapons for computer than xbox in halo 1 i.e. ( banshee, flamethrower, rod gun) so i guess as long as it will make the game better for multiplayer than its probably worth it. I just dont want them to spend months just converting it to computer and make it not worth will. They should have been doing both alterations to the xbox and computer at the same time. o well as long as the game is awesome i guess i could wait a little while longer
