Subject: Did Bungie plan this...

ok if youve at least played through the small series of metropolis levels in halo 2 more than likely youll know what im talking about. now in the end of the halo 2 metropolis levels when the slipspace rupture event occurs notice how the camera angle was pointed no where near where the ODST's come into play from the gameplay trailers (if youve seen them) it makes you wonder if you think about it really hard "did bungie plan this or was it just luck that the camera shot wasnt pointed to where the ODST's are when they come in on the event", please respond to this from your thoughts im not saying they did so dont flame me but it does seem kinda suspicious.

p.s. i dont care if anyone posted about this before.

I'm thinking that they noticed this camera angle and said "Hey, this is a great place to have the ODSTs drop in."

I don't think so. I think that (in the case of all mediums where they make a behind the scenes type thing like Lion King 1/2 for example) the developers simply look back and look for a point where they can add stuff and say how this and that was caused because we're gonna add this backstory here. I seriously doubt they had the camera angle planned from the beginning of Halo 2 then made ODST. Rather instead they made ODST and realized looking back that hey here's a nice spot we can add them in without disrupting the existing material all too much.

They did have a lot of Halo 3s story planned from the beginning. If you ever saw the Halo prototype game play demo, they show a broken halo and he says perhaps a hint at things to come, before he gets a shh!

Actually, I find that I'm more invincible without pants, which is why I am not wearing any at the moment.

Happy Accident!
