EVERYONE, hey earlier (like 12 hours ago), the awsome Shishka, answered a hole bunch of cool questions. All I ask is that if you wish to read it do so, sorry to bump, won't do it again, only thought that everyone whould have the chance to get some questions answered "if you want to read."

Shiska should have his own little section where he would answer people's questions. That would be cool (yet time consuming). Anway, after 10 minutes of reading through this thing, I found two things that I never knew before:

Here's a neat fact for you. When you're zoomed in with the SR, or the Pistol, in Halo one, you're not actually looking through a scope. The idea is that electronics inside the gun are sending a feed directly to your helmet. As such, it's not really a standard scope and doesn't need to be round. =)

The SMG doesn't have zoom. However, when wielding a weapon that doesn't have a zoom function on it, you are able to activate binoculars, essentially. I'm not sure, but I think it's a 5x zoom.


Wow. Just wow.

Is the rocket launcher on the back of the Hog slowed down for multiplayer? I was wondering, becuase it seemed REALLY slow in the multiplayer demo movie, compared to the 2003 SP demo.


You got them totally mixed up. In SP thats not a rocket, its a shell, im MP thats a rcoket

I'll be on my own side.

I hope the scope is round(like the human eye, or bowed like mc's helmit), not square. I just think a round one would be more realistic and cool.

yeah its called a SMART-linked scope

i wonder if the HUD's for the Spartans and Elites will look different. not so much that you cant tell whats what,but enough to distinguish between Covie and Human engineering.

[color=gold] Dang, I wish I was hear to ask some quetions. It sucks that Shishka's time was wasted on some stupid ones. "Can you board a warthog when someone is in it?" Well, duhhh, if you can do it to a ghost..wtf do you think???

Why don't we try asking some orinal questions, you know, questions not relating to topics we keep talking about over and over and over again?

Can you melee while dual welding, and if so do you melee with right hand, or left or both or what. Can you melee with right hand while shooting with left hand???

Can you shoot a one handed weapon while driving A.T.V.???

Can you still nade weapons to you???

If an elite gets sniper shotted in neck will he die??? (Mc doesnt really have a neck, but if you shoot him there he dies, it counts as head shot.[/color]

someone told me that all the blue stuff on the spartan hud will be purple for the elites, but I also hope that there is a more substantial difference. The elites should be alian futuristic, kind of like ridics night vision or something.

i agree that the last one was stupid and others. I'm 99% sure that you can shoot will driving the A.T.V, i read it somewhere official, and i think the weak points on both the elites and mc's are set similar to keep balance.

I've seen it, but i hope you don't think i've actually played the game, only like 200 non bungie people have, and I live in Texas not on the west coast (means no e3 for me to play).

[color=gold] I was one of the few that played it, once you into the base, thats about it. the beach takes up most of the level you know. It looks big but its not really that big. Blood gultch is a huge map.[/color]

[color=orange]say zanzibar is a big peice of good tasting pie...well, the beach would take up about 3 slices of the 7 slice pie, the outside area past the outside beach walls takes 2 slices and the inside base itself takes 1.[/color]
