Can anyone tell me what weapon the Spartan is carrying in the main picture?

  • 03.29.2009 3:15 AM PDT

I don't know what is that weapon, but I hope it will be some new custom for Spartan's armor ^^ and could somebody tell me where the -blam!- are the three over maps, Longshore, Heretic and Citadel?

All that I am, all that will be of me, is the blood on my hands, the memories of my fallen enemies and my respected comrades.

Are the super cool blue brutes chieftains too? a while back I found a brute jacking off... it was messed up.

hey great update bungie, im really looking forward to playing some different variants of sandbox since the orginal version of sandbox isnt my fortae. Vessel looks reallly kool and its koool to kno there arent gonna be any veichles and should be fun to have another close quarters map, weapons on the map are gonna include: shotgun? sword? maulers? or are u guys trying to pull away from power weapons and maybe just stick with smgs, AR's, BR's, plasma rifle/pistol, etc. Also charnaldinho the spartan in the main picture is carrying a fuel rod cannon, which reminds me bungie, is the fuel rod cannon ever going to be added in to match making if u were to tweak it like u did the hornet? I would like to see the fuel rod in matchmaking but with a lower rate of fire because the fuel rod cannon fires way too fast and im not sure if its more powerful then a rocketlauncher but the actual plasma shot is much slower than a rocket leaving plenty of time for people to dodge it, so is there a chance that we will see the fuel rod cannon in matchmaking?

Just do what I do when I have a problem... SCREAM!

The Banhammer hurts less and less w/ each crushing blow.

bungie cant win man, thats bottom line. Whatever bungie does to try to please their fans by bringing back certain things in the game or taking things out such as BXR people get mad that they take it out, but then u have another group of people who are glad they take it out because it is too cheap. Quite frankly im glad BXR is gone that stuff is for the pros in MLG not for the general public of online players. Also if all of u notice BXR is not even supposed to be in the game its a glitch that some guy figured out that makes u shoot faster, and the BR is not supposed to shoot that fast it shoots almost like a machine gun when someone uses BXR. The BR is a burst fire weapon not a machine gun and it should be used as a burst weapon.

1. Are you replying to anyone in particular? Nobody in this thread has defended glitches like BXR that were included in Halo 2.

2. BXR doesn't make the BR shoot faster. You're thinking of RRXYYRRX.

3. You are not a Bungie employee. You are not qualified to tell anyone what was and was not intended to be in Halo 2 without citing your sources. The only acceptable source, of course, would be a Bungie employee.

Does anyone else find the "Vessel" map looking somewhat bland? It doesn't look like anything but a floating platform. I'm all for map design making for a fun and interesting battle, however, part of that is making the map look like it fits in the world it is designed for.

With that said, I hope there will be a final version before too long that looks more visually appealing. This "relic" term seems to get thrown around when a map is made that doesn't look like anything. Since it's a floating plain, why not make it actually look like a ship or contraption of some sort. Maybe the top of a tall building still left on earth or even the outer deck of small freighter. Anything that would make more sense than a floating strip of randomness.

Anyway, that's my say and I'm sure I've had more than my share of words on this one so I'll leave it at that. Now, let the berating begin.

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Introduced as a short update, this was still packed full to the upper-atmosphere.

Nice stuff... I really enjoy the campaign tagging stuff. Maybe I'll fire my campaign up and give it a go later!

Thanks Dudez

because of the economic down fall i think that the maps should be cheaper
