Subject: Wait... 5 Waves Only?

You're like, the bee's knees: you have helped me out a LOT in the past and you're a genuinely nice guy, and you deserve all the best for the good you've done me and surely done others
Count Peter, you're one of the only people I respect on here. Not that that means much on a forum, but still.

What i want to know is if it starts instantly (like horde mode) or whether you have to activate something 1st, like in l4d Survival mode

Look at the HUD at the top of the shot.

If you look closely, you can see that there are 5 bars, with the first one filled.
There are also three (possibly four, I can't tell) circles above it, with the first one illuminated.

This leads me to believe that there will be Fifteen waves, seeing as 5x3=15.
It also gives the idea that the rounds will be split up into fives, just like Gears of War 2, where they are split into tens.

Remember...what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, except herpes, that sh1t'll come back with ya.

also there could be waves within the waves.
10 waves in each "wave"..maybe 5 waves 5 different maps?

but yes he only got to wave 5 it says

the main thing that caught my interest in that article was that each map pack is collected on a second disc. sooo if we already have the maps, wheres the bonus for the bonus buck? :(

Early-adopters always pay a premium for being such and VERY often find that the stragglers will find the same wares at a discount. Prices start out high and decrease over time, this is very common in modern business.

The bonus for me will be that I'll have a Halo 3/ODST multiplayer disc with ALL maps on it and I can free up a few gigs on my hard drive. Winsauce.

Level 5 could just be the cap for the Demo. Or they could only get to wave 5.

The AR is an awesome weapon, RESPECT IT AS SUCH!!!

i doubt that it will only be 5 waves, since it is still only a demo Bungie probably didnt want to give away too much info...although they still gave away a hell of a lot!

  • 06.02.2009 8:43 AM PDT

I'm THE one and only Big, Angry Worm. Tapeworm...?

Posted by: TheDonutDoor
if they only made 5, level 5 will be -blam!- hard

And incredible long!

Maby it will be like this:
Wave 1: Easy
Wave 2: Normal
Wave 3: Heroic
Wave 4: Legendary
Wave 5: Mythic

i think his health meter is under the compass, like i think your saying, but the 'round meter' from walsy pru's post is on the top left of the shot, above the skull markers
