It looks like something they have never done before, maby a large close qwarters map, I hope its not the same bace vs. bace kind of team map because that is what most of the maps in halo 3 are like. I hope next week we might learn some more about Sand Box wich is most likely a large map because sand or snow is a good way to cut down on the graphics so there can be more room for vehicles, wepons, and forge items. I hope it is a mix between the size of Sandtrap and the user created possiblites of Foundary. I hope there will be a chance for all of the, "I love you bungie, please give me recon." kids to get there hands on that before Halo 3 ODST comes out.01001001101011010101010101110101011

I was just looking around the picture of what's most likely Orbital, and I think I saw some kind "hint" for the Orbital skull. There is a large cylindrical structure sticking out of the ground. If you look on the right side of it, on the wall behind, you can see half of a red poster. There is part of an image there of three "legs" extending from a center point. If the part not visible is similar to what we can see, then it would look similar to the "fan"-like symbol on the picture of the skull for that level. Also on the poster are the letters -OME. Does anyone know what that symbol could mean, that also ends with the letter visible?

"One would need the ability to interpret 10 dimensions as opposed to the familiar 3 in order to understand me."

Say thats a swell screenshot of Assembly, why didnt you guys show off the section with the mechanized control loader/arms?

The map looks fun.

Oh,Micro$oft, why must you force us to wait for the Mythic Map Pack, no-one is going to buy Halo Wars, no matter what crap you get with it.

Merry Christmas Bungie! You guys still care about us!

  • 12.20.2008 5:53 PM PDT

Great update!

I already used the screenshot to make a signature.

<3 Bungie!

Halo + Bungie = Extreme Awesomeness

This was an awesome update! I can't wait to forge and play on the Mythic Map Pack!

lmao - First of all, Bungie would never put up a video on youtube for Recon opportunities. Second of all, they certainly wouldn't make that type of video. Finally, the grammar and spelling mistakes should be a clear indicator that Mike is not a Bungie employee. "I am An Bungie Enployee Named Mike"? Gimme a break.

Nice update, I'm in New York and it looks like the snow hasn't come and gone. My back is killing me from the 8 hours of continuous shoveling and salting already, make it stop!

Love the card and the screenshot, enjoy the holidays!

In what can only be described to Seattle locals as Snowpocalypse 2008 and described by hearty Midwesterners and East Coasters as "another day of winter," a gale of terrible power tore through Seattle this week, dusting the region in frigid powder. Everything froze up and turned to ice, driving was treacherous, and for safety the studio shut down. It's even closed today, but a few of us have braved ice, fire and snow to find a way to get something resembling an update into your hands, Internet.

That's a nice way of saying "My wife was driving me nuts so I was willing to risk death to get a break."


made me lol...
Nice map bungie you once again have gained a customer on the first day:)
and thx for the greeting card

It's a festivus for the rest of us. Happy holidays. Can't wait for that abandoned MAC station. Halo ftw (and seinfeld for that matter)

Dude I don't care and my grammer is perfect.I used "Big", as you recall it to mak is specific."to not do...",is incorrect beause "do" is present tense/perfect(or future) when it was a past tense.

Maybe this isn't the place for this, But I have a question:

Will Bungie be providing 3D video capabilities in Halo 3: ODST? Or maybe in an update to Halo 3? Like in the theatre, or maybe in gameplay itself? I think that depth perception would be nice, especially in forge.
