Well we finally got some info on these mythic maps. Im so strained to finally get these maps because I have all the new acievments but the mythic map pack achievments. I have already seen Assembly at PAX 2008 but im wondering if any of the other maps are made yet. *cries*why next year?...oh well i still anticipate both the mythic maps and halo 3 recon.

Thanks again Bungie

I was wondering weather the h3 recon disk will like install something to the hard drive or something, as the multiplayer map pack cd did for halo 2. it would be annoying to have to change between disks to play on the different campaigns and multiplayer maps.

Uhm, would you mind to make a spoiler warning in future updates concerning the mythic map pack? I mean for example if you show Overviews or Pictures, not basic information like how much it's going to cost. I want to play the maps online without knowing anything.

If you will do it, thank you.
If not, nevermind.

I noticed in the Recon trailer that his gun is different. To me it looks like a battle rifle with a silencer. Will Recon use the same weapons, vehicles, and equipment as Halo 3? If so then what weapon was the ODST holding in the trailer?

If you look on the Halopedia, it says the ODST was holding a M7s, though I have no clue what that is.

if the multiplayer maps can be downloaded does this bean that we can also download the campaign?

If we buy halo3 :Recon and not the mythic maps will any achievments we earn on the mythic maps there be transfered to our existing halo 3 (regular) gamerscore?

  • 10.12.2008 8:42 AM PDT

All I can hope for in this game is that all the variables are taken into consideration.

like the idea that the main character is an ODST, not a Spartan, changing the gameplay dynamic completely. Meaning you are not sheilded, you are shorter, weaker (melee would be drastically weaker), Unable to jump 8 feet in the air, etc. In which I am guessing this is why this game is called Recon, because your fighting ability will be so much weaker that you will have to use hit and run tactics and stealth to your advantage. Not quite the shoot 'em up that the Halo games have been.

I think this is an interesting idea for a game, but wasn't there enough to build on from the books and game endings? It's already a big universe without a whole lot of closure, why not end other stories instead of starting new ones? unless you are planning to wrap up Master Chief and Blue Teams stories on planet Onyx via books?... or maybe even a CG animated Movie?.... all the trailers look good, couldn't a movie be made that way?

Kill maim'N Destroy!

Thats awesome. I guess this means we will all be able to get Recon(the game ofcourse, H3 Recon) lol. I love it. it sounds great.


Yeah 15th page. I rock. lol

Think about it.

So does this mean that the graphics will stay the same? That trailer seemed to show a major graphics upgrade, or was it like the cutscenes in H3? (The cutscenes had WAY better graphics)

Someone prolly already -blam!-ed about this a couple pages before me, but...

Is H3R's release going to compensate the players who buy the maps in Winter 09? I mean, I will feel weird paying 1600 gamer points or even a little less and then have to pay $60 dollars for a game half a year later with the same maps. I mean, does anyone not see this?

There be a way to detect if someone bought the maps previously and refund them gamer points, please.

So... the multiplayer is just the Halo 3 multiplayer? We are only paying for the campaign? Why not just make it an expansion pack that require Halo 3 and can be downloaded...

Also, make the slogan of the game:
"Yes, u can nao haz recon!"


A complete campaign game that you can download? Yeah right! So along with all the game saves, demo's, XBL Arcade games, themes, pics etc; you think the majority (probably you included) are gonna have a spare 5 or so gigs of free disk space for Halo Recon? I don't think so. Think....

  • 10.12.2008 2:06 PM PDT

I hear there is going to be a Halo 4 but Bungie is not making it. True?
