Has anyone noticed when the Phantoms are chasing MC, in the E3 Halo 2 Demo, one Phantom shoots this big a$$ sign and it goes under only to have the sign fall on it and make it blow up?

I thought it looked a little silly and i kinda hope they consider taking it out of the game. But the explosion looked cool.

Play as a team win as a team or die as a team!


I think we all notice that is so old. But maybe it was a kamizile (maybe) or a dumb grunt was probably was driving it (Grunts know how to drive this time!) or an Elite or Brunt was drinking and driving!!

Guess they underestimated the power of the streetsign. Mc could barely defeat a squad of elites, but a street sign could destroy a covenat aircraft?

Yes I did, along with about a couple of million other people in the world. Yet, I say it would be intelligent to think that Bungie would incorpreate more intelliect into their AI come Nov. 9th. The video was for E3 I'm sure things will change. Bungie even said their AI was smarter. I would expect a harder phantoms in the the actual game.

I always thought the Phantom shot the sign in an attempt to have it fall on the MC. The signed didn't fall, it swung and hit the Phantom, which caused it to turn over and explode.
That is what I always thought about that part.

Guys dam it isn't the real game it was a demo no one ever said that it was going to be in the game like the Level but the level I think it will make it but be different maybe like North or South Mombasa. But dam Bungie said u could destory vehicles and air crafts so that was an example to show u kinda of it will look.

I'll be on my own side.

and the AI system used for the covies was the Grunts' AI,and it wasnt even fully developed

Lol, that was the worst part of the demo. I also though it was stupid when the brutes in the ghosts crashed into the wall and exploded. It looked like they were going 3 mph at the most. =)

What the?

Have you guys forgotten who that is? That's the Master Chief! The human who single handedly destroyed a Covenant Armada on Halo and then annihilated nearly the entire Covenant attack fleet in First Strike.

It is any wonder that the Covenant are taking insane risks to take him down They're already psychotic killing machines. How could they not throw all caution to the winds? They're filled with rage, anger and a desire for payback at all costs and with that rage comes mistakes, friendly fire or otherwise.
