I heard people saying that in the mombasa level on the e3 2003 was just a demo for e3 that it will not be in the halo sp missions?? I also think this is true because at the end of the level what if you shoot destroy the incoming ghosts?? do more appear or if you go to the end of the level in the warthog instead of the ghost would that change the cinematic??

Ok the actual city will be in the game but the missions from the E3 demo will not. Hopefully thats clear?

i definently dont think so. there was WAAAAAYYYY waay way way too much time put into it from the looks to just be a simple "placeholder" maybe its not the first level...but it look like way too much work was put into it to be a simple placeholder

The actual city/environment/areas WILL be in the game. But what you have to do in the level will be different.

There are two groups of people in the world - those that hope, and those that wish. The first group hopes that nothing bad will happen. The second group wishes that they are there when it does. Which one are you?

Actually the real game will look much better than that.

However, the time spent on the demo was in specifically animating all the characaters and covenant to do specific things rather than having it play like an actual demo...it was really just more of a movie trailer than the actual game.

Not the exact mission because a lot of things were scripted such as:

MC's Warthog path
Ghost flipping off of the Warthog
Phantoms directly overhead
Brute on windshield
Ghost boarding

Bungie has also stated that everything we have seen is subject to change.

ok, first off, this querstion has been asked and answered before. the level might be in the final level, but it would take a lot of work to put it in. Say, if you don't use the warthogs, then you dont get to the ghosts in time, so you dont get through the highway in time. that means that the whole final part of e3 wouldnt happen.
I'm sure, however, that a mission of the same type will be in the game, jsut not the exact same.

The map will..

The mission wont..

Because the mission was;

1. Too Easy.
2. No true mission just showing features off.
3. If you took another road of something.
4. Or if you used a hog/ran through the cutscene area with the ghost it wouldn't work.
