Since there will be ambient life in Halo 2, get this: If we're walking through some woods, and we accidentally step on an animal, (or scare a bunch of birds) and you're trying to sneak up on covenant, will the animal squawk, relaying your position to the covenant? (well, not telling them your lat & long, lol). I mean, if the covenant hear it (if the animals will make a noise), they should send in search parties. (confirmed by Bungie). What do you guys think? I think it will be harder on legendary. Also, that would suck if you're about to kill an elite, and a bird gets scared by you, makes a noise, and then the elite moves, making you waste a round, and then it alerts the other covenant.

thats a really really cool idea, i never thought of that.

When i thought of the ambient life thing i thought of the 117 joke "so one bungie employee puts ambient life, like bugs in, then another bungie employee take bugs out... i see some resorting of the bungie staff needed.

I love that one. MC goes: "So Ambient Life is What?"
Cortana: "Bugs in the game."
MC: "And what are they doing now?"
Cortana: "Taking the bugs out." lol that was hilarious. I'm trying to find it hold on . . .Here it is

Well, it isn't definite that there will be ambient life in Halo 2, but yes, I think that would be cool. Maybe not send in search parties, that would be a little over that top, but at least have the covenant react, or maybe have the covenant kill the bird. That would be cool.

IT IS definite that ambient life will be in Halo 2. And, search parties should occur, because of the new AI, and not only that, but if I heard a sound in the jungle, I would investigate it, with a 12 guage in hand. Read all the updates. Here it is!

The only thing ambient life is good for is shooting. I hope they don't make it so you can slip on bird crap a la Metal Gear Solid.

Sure i'd already posted it here but nm, must be a new topic:

When they were first making Halo, (pre-xbox), one of the guy wanted to be able to ride a hippo and jump out the bushes, but htis cheat would only work for Bungie employees.

Of course it never made it, and other designs were thought up, still with the hippo including the wallmine. It finally made the game as a hippo symbol on EVERY shot gun shell.

Would be so funny though if they brought the hippo back in ROFL.

Untrue. Bungie stated that it might be added, but if it was going to take too much time to do, possibly delaying the release date, then it would be scrapped.

All right, ya got me. lol. But I didn't read it all the way, that's why I didn't see how it might be the first one gone, if it doesn't help out the game. Thanks.

Well, if there's a jungle hog, there would be wilderness. I hope there's both! (As well as the snow hog, troop transport hog, and that's it!!)
