im not saying there wont be, but by all chance, after a slipspace jump takes apart the space elevator, which was right next to the jump, id expect there to be alot of smoke/dust around, if there i weather effects, woop woop, if not, ill live without.

Trailer =/= Canon


Then how come the new gameplay trailer and the game cover still depict a thunderstom?

Gamecovers usually don't depict something that isn't in the game.



Hmm... good point. I hope there's a storm at some point in the game.

Weather = Awesome

There are two things on this forum that piss me off;
Idiots and group invites.
What's even worse, is that I can never seem to get away from either of them ¬_¬

I honestly don't care. A rain system would cause the whole game to lag if it doesn't have a hosted server.


Excuse me, but are you talking out of yor ass? Do you understand what servers actually are? Evidently not because that sentence makes no sense.

A server is part of networking. It holds tempory or widely shared information, such as websites and a players actions in a game. That is the only role it plays in games. All it hosts is the players actons, it does not contain any graphical information or anything else. Just streams of information which is recieved from a player's Xbox and translated by the ame into action and movement. Don't believe me? Read

The graphical information is stored on files contained within the disk. Usually, the information is temporarily stored on a hard drive to allow the game to run faster, meaning it can run more files at faster rates due to the extra space the hard drive provides. It is in these files that the codes for making rain apear, how it falls, what sound it makes ECT would be contained. And for the record, rain is not laggy at all when done properly.

Sorry for the wall, but that post was just so... stupid! And yes, I may have got sme stuff wrong, but this is just my basic knowledge. Most of it is right.

There might be a weather cycle when playing as the rookie. That would be so beast! :D

Typical Halo nerd. Move along.

I don't know...I was really hoping to be able to play in a down-pour. Maybe the weather will be on/off or something.

I'd love it if rain was in the game but I won't loose any sleep about it if there isn't.

That storm above the ark probably needs some time to build.... but we'll see it eventually.

Yes, I'm the guy who had the Flood admit to being furries.

Well the Recon Trailer is old, probably made in the early stages. So they probably decided to cut it.Of course, we'll still probably get a storm at one point(a faraway storm was present in Halo 2, and is of course in full presence in Halo 3, so I'd imagine ODST will have one too).
