in halo you could see invisible elites with swords, in halo 2 for MP, if you have a sword, will it go camo with you or will the enemy be able to see the sword, it would be cool for the sword to go invisible too but unfair, because the sword is a one hit kill weapon, hmmmm i wonder what bungie will do.

if its like halo then it'll still be visible. but then if its like halo and enemies behave like our beloved marines then they wont notice a floating glowing blue sword rushing towards them..

That would be scary in MP if the swords go invisible, too. You don't see anything around you, then -blam!- you're staring at your dead body lying on the ground.

Well, maybe when you use the melee attack you become visable for like 5 seconds. Kinda like in the first halo, only for longer and completely not just partly.

Hmm.. I'm both ways on this.. If the sword isn't as cheap as I think it is, and hard to come by. Then sure, let it be invisible too. If it is on the cheap side and easy to come by. They let it be visable, although it would make sense as far as gameplay goes. But if I have 3 invisable people coming at me with swords I at least what a fighting chance.

Here would be a kinda cheap combo. Get camo, switch to a weapon other than your sword so you become completely invisable and then walk very slowly to an enemy so they cant see you on their radar than right when your near to a lunge attack. Muhahahaha, wasteage.

Yo, JimBobJoe, you're quote, just wanna let you know, I think the correct quote is "I am become Death, the shatterer of worlds". It's from the Bhagava Gita and Oppenheimer recalled it when we dropped the A-Bomb on Japan. Just letting you know there, just in-case you didn't change it on purpose. BTW, that idea of yours (sneaking up with an invisible weapon and pulling out the sword at the last minute) sounds like it would be very useful actually.

Death is actually a word that has a double meaning in that quote...it can also mean Shiva, of Hindu lore. Mut the reason the quote is "I am become..." is because it is referring to the state of being in which there is no linear time, hence the I AM commonly associated with God in the Old Testament. I hope that made sense...it's one of those hard to explain things that only make sense to philosophy geeks like myself. Anyways, my profile has the correctly translated quote in it...well, nothing's really perfectly translated nowadays.

But seriously, lol, your not impressing anyone with you image of yourself in your avatar. And, I dont care about your bad grammar, even though your quote has some, but you need to learn to accecpt defeat, mr. Goforth.
