Subject: 28 Million Strong... and Growing

Chapter creation has been temporarily disabled. And the 7th Column will spring back to life when it joins the new hotness.

Maybe every copy of H2 comes with a coupon for one free SAW or M-60 with ammo and instructions on what we need to take over in our local area...


You can't fit all that in a small metal box; however, you can fit instructions that tell you to go to the closest store that sells Halo 2 and ask a clerk "Do you have any special editions of Halo 2?". The Clerk will respond "I will have to check the back room, come with me." The Clerk will take you to the 'back room' where you will choose your weapon and load up with ammo.

this is all just a guess... but i feel certain I'm right.

Mabey they havn't released any Screenshots lately because they are buisy working on Halo 2?

And as for the World Domination thing... I'm all for it, as long as it won't interupt my gaming time...

A world controlled by Bungie... Xbox in evey home, high speed internet for all, more Red vs Blue episodes, and your "Social Class" is determined by your Halo & Halo 2 skills...

Well that can't be right, because they said that they were going to have more 3D shots and stuff like that on the way so it's not like they are done showing us stuff.

Man I keep thinking your Obbiquiet because of your picture!

im sure bungie could take over north america, as thats where most people on the forums seem to be from, but what about the eastern hemisphere. are we gonna have to go over there cause if we are i'd like to pack a bag before hand.... on nov 9th all gaming stores will secretly be converted to gun shops and every purchase of halo 2 will come with a free weapon, then the stores will put out cardbaord cutouts of bungie fans, and we will all the bungie fans will take over while they think we're still geting the game they'll never see it coming unless the government is monitoring this forum ....... oh no i've said to much

Bungie could easily take over Europe. We'd be too busy drinking tea, getting slowly drunk on wine, and playing petanque, to put up much of a resistance.

I'm surprised how active these forums are, considering they're so crap; most posts make the poster sound like a retard, if he/she is even old enough to know what one is. It was all very well spending time on that interface new bungie.net interface, but it's too slow and complicated.

The forums are slow to generate a page, due to an excess of images and the many redundant database queries. The code is quite likely inefficient and bloated too. Keep it simple, and fast. A good interface shouldn't be complex.


And would it kill Bungie to release some more screenshots or details - the kind that people are interested to know such as "Is the pistol in the game?", "Can the plasma/energy sword be used in single player?" "What weapons can be dual wielded?", "Can the plasma sword block another plasma sword?" and generally, something to get stuck into, not 1 or 2 small facts here and there. Do you think that people won't buy the game because there are a few less unrevealed things? Or that the hype will go down because we know a little more than before? Do you think this will happen?:

"Hey, did you hear that the flamethrower is in SP and MP in Halo 2?"
"Yeah, I guess I don't need to buy the game to find out now; I was only buying it to see if they'd put it in"

Rubbish. When Bungie released more details, it made me want the game even more not any less.


After delaying the game by at least a year, you could at least give the fans some more facts and details about the game. Lets have some of the new weapons revealed for God's sake. Of course you don't want to reveal every minute detail about the game, for obvious reasons, but the whole censored -blam!- or "I can't say" crap is tedious and boring. Frankly, I'm buying Halo 2 because Halo was such a kickass game, not because I only want to find out what Bungie "[couldn't] say" all this time.

I think you just blammed your chances at a top job in Bungie's World Domination. And you'll probably get flamed as well.

Okay, Bungie...if U wanna take over the world...go for it. I might even fight n your side...just so long as you keep all the morality of the US government and none of the bad. One more thing...please don't persecute blacks...I've been teamed up against in Halo 4 to 1 just because I'm black...(the irony is I still won)...

Please tell me the human pistol will be in Halo 2. PLEAAAASSSSEE....I can't help but love the sound of my friends saying, "what the hell is that?" and then dropping over dead. It's always fun to hear them get mad at me for busting a cap on a guy who had a sniper rifle across Blood Gulch with a pistol. heeheehee...pistol bichez rock.

all right ahaloplayer, even though I think you need a big attitude adjustment, I am willing to answer two of your questions. 1. Can the Plasma Sword be used in SP? Well, Bungie has already said that the features in MP are going to be in SP also, so of course the Plasma Sword will be in SP. 2. What weapons can be dual wielded? I believe that Bungie has told us the answer to this to. But even if they hadn't it's only obvious considering they want to make the game realistic, so Only guns that you can use one hand with like the SMG and the Needler can be dual wielded. Although I don't think you deserved the answers I just gave you, I hope they make you feel a little better and a little less angry at Bungie for their lack of information (although to me, it seems like they have told us a ton more than any other games!). So now will you shut your pie hole or duct tape your fingers or something so we dont ahve to listen to you whining about how much you want to know about the game? Oh and by the way, you said you were buying Halo 2 because Halo was awesome, not to find out what Bungie couldn't say, so why are you making a big deal out of what they aren't saying now if you supposedly don't care? And if your computer is proccessing this stuff slowly then why don't you get a better internet or a better computer altogether? Or better yet, why don't you just stay off the forums that you say "make the people who post sound like a retard"? All right, I have said what I came to say. I am content.

1. You'll be pleased to know that you have proven my point about quite a few people here soundling like a retard, as you clearly don't even know what a paragraph is, moron.
2. Somehow, the fact that these forums take about 10 seconds to generate a page on a 2Mbit connection, considering the low post per page count gives me the impression that it's not my connection
3. So now will you shut your pie hole or duct tape your fingers or something so we dont ahve to listen to you whining about how much you want to know about the game?
No
4. Oh and by the way, you said you were buying Halo 2 because Halo was awesome, not to find out what Bungie couldn't say, so why are you making a big deal out of what they aren't saying now if you supposedly don't care?
I didn't say I don't care, I said that I would buy the game regardless. Releasing details however, makes the game even more interesting and makes the wait both more and less bearable at the same time.




@AHaloPlayer:
I think you just blammed your chances at a top job in Bungie's World Domination. And you'll probably get flamed as well.

My answer to both points: I don't give a -blam!-.

You may want to check the rules on flaming. And less of the "r" word as well.
