Subject: What are the odds of getting Reach info on Bungie day ?

Since it is Bungie's favorite day of the year what are the chances of getting any reach information ? My guess is 80 % for some info and 20 % against.

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

50/50 for me. They said we may get some kind of screenshot but didn't specify what game it was for. Not sure how cool an ODST screenshot would be at this point, so Reach seems to make more sense for Bungie Day.

You should've put a poll up.... But there isn't going to be much info until after ODST comes out and its still going to be months after it comes out before much else of Reach is revealed

  • 06.27.2009 11:52 AM PDT

A million to one against. Then again it is Bungie day so a million to one for. But that sounds like it's too likely. On second though how 'bout a million to a million?

-1/0 It's completely IN-CON-CIEVE-A-BLE.(That was needless) Depends on how far into production it is.I'm guessing they have the engine done,optimistically.

With about a year left before it's released, you can count on them having a lot more than just the engine done. Nathan Fillion got a sneak peek at Reach while he was there so it's obviously to a point where it can be shown to people a little bit.

I don't want to give a number as I feel like I'd say be pulling it out of my ass but I'd say the odds are favorable.

Now how much, that's the question.

Yea....or what else have they been doing since 2007? ODST is a small side team.

And you know, you can model without and egine, draw concept art, work out prototypes in older egines, etc.

And the truth is, you typically will work on an engine prior to when the main team is at it, same with concept art. I'd imagine they were building the engine, doing concept art, planning the story, etc. before Halo 3 came out.

I'm pretty sure the screenshot will be either from Heretic, of the ODST map pack, or Reach multiplayer, but I doubt they'd want to distract us from ODST before it's even out, so I wouldn't really count on a Reach screenshot.

I never thought about a screenshot form the map pack. Could be it. Even though they said it was almost an exact of Midship. You could just turn on Halo 2 and know what the map will look like. I would still consider it lackluster for Bungie Day, but I'll take whatever we get.

Seems too early imo. They usually don't reveal map packs coming out in more than a month before it. Assembly is the exception, but it was also for play at PAX.

I dont think the chances are very good that they will release info. Chances that they hint at new info coming? 1:1

Chunky_Lover's Average Joe Interview

Bungie All Star Contest Winner Weeks 6,8 and 12

50/50


We either do...or we don't.

  • 06.27.2009 12:50 PM PDT

Obviously not, the only thing they would show us is gameplay and they are definately not that far. It's probably just a screen of Longshore.

|Yeah, very clever.

If we're lucky enough to get any at all, I guess it won't be much. Maybe a new teaser or something.

Se7en7ty Percen7. See what I did there? In all reality I would say there is a good chance they show something on Reach, and 100% chance they show something new on ODST.

  • 06.27.2009 12:56 PM PDT

Snakie Purple.

Twatter

They mentioned something about maybe a screen shot.

Don't count on anything, though.

But they wouldn't hype a screenshot for it. They release screenshots of it every couple of days.

Odds are Reach's
Engine
Script
Basic Gameplay
are done, maybe a little more, i mean ODST is already finished and it finished 4 months or so before the release, so reach may be farther along then we thought

Well assuming the games been in production for a year now(since like June/July 2008) they would have the engine done, and some basic gameplay builds, as well as creating the first cutscenes and such. But this would be in the best case scenario
