Guys, think about it. Look at the video they sent G4. They said they are working on something and then everyone interrupts Marty and says stuff like "Keep It Clean!" "Stick to the script!" Then to top it all of, Lukems said we will find out shortly why it took so long. I don't know about you guys, but that is quite a few hints of something big about to unfold.
Especially that the background of that video looks like a map we haven't seen before.


Exactly. Maybe right now they are working on new maps, new projects. It could be anything, and it definitely will be worth the wait.

why so late?



You'll know sorta soon. I promise


maybe its because as you said in another post that you were busy and gonna post it late so you were flicking the switch for Au2 and it will be up tommorow? just a guess.


Nope. No AU2 anytime soon. You guys really need to calm down overall. There's not much to talk about right now: Deal with it.

The other, very real possibility, like Sketch has mentioned before, is that maybe on weeks when there isn't anything, we'll just not put one up.


Luke will we know what Bungies new project is before the end of the year?

I Love ODST. Nice game.

First......Shi**!!!!

Well, it makes sense. Lots of secret stuff that you can't really talk about, and nothing really worth mentioning.

I'm just wondering, is AU2 planned to fix any other problems besides the rank system (For example, some dodgy netcode...animation errors...etc). Or is that all? Because I can hardly understand why it would take such a while to get a detailed update on the state of it.

While I appreciate the brief reports every Friday, if it really came down to when you don't have much to say, why not just do an interview with some staff members? Ask them about some fun stuff they did this week (they can talk about). Do a spotlight on some less known Bungie employees.

I understand that this is sorta the same vein as the Podcast, but those take a lot of pre-planning and then post-production. A simple interview could be sent via company email and just report back what you get. Like as around, "Have you guys found any good custom gametypes or maps? If so what makes them great?" Et cetera.

Just a thought.

C'mon, Luke. Don't you know that the majority of this community does nothing but try to find reasons to complain?

  • 08.08.2008 7:10 PM PDT

Wow
"Great update"

Luke,
I guess that you take the blunt of it again.
*Sigh*
Don'cha just hate when the internets erupt into a Nerd Rage?
I'm going to say that It was actually a good update on further looking over. At least Luke gave us videos.
Considering there is nothing going on,
Good Job Luke!
