I have not read nor heard anything regarding the Halo 3 Beta Tripmine. More than likely, it will never return.

More than likely, the game will include the Lotus Anti-Tank mine, which was used extensively in most of the novels.

Link your source before you speculate. If you heard it from your friend, your friend is probably a liar, you shouldn't have friends who lie, they make for bad friends.

So, I say it again, LINK YOUR SOURCE.

Laggen' ain't easy

The OP is just trying to start his own little internet rumor probably. Unless he forks over a link,, but I HIGHLY doubt that he will.

To be on topic,, I was one of the few people that thought the trip mine was perfect in Beta. You can not do crap with it now. I always loved in Beta where you just set up a mine somewhere on the map and you forgot about and just start walking around,, then out of nowhere you get a double kill or something like that. I miss that.
To that person who said that it was over powered,, I beg to differ,, it was blatantly noticeable and it made this big BEEP BEEP noise. So if you get killed by a trip mine it really was your fault.
I am all for the return of the useful trip mine.

Not to turn this to a debate but, a trip mine that could kill on impact is a bad thing. Let's say a guy wants to boot players on his team (for whatever reason, there are players out there...) and he saw a friendly tripmine. He walks over it, dies instantly, and he is betrayed, by the player who placed it.

Think, would he get the "Press X to boot player" option? He might....

The only bad thing about the trip mines is that it's way too easy to accidentally kill your own team with one. If they made it so only an enemy could trigger it then it would be perfect.

Everything will be gone long before me. When the first living thing was born, I was here, waiting. When the last living thing dies, my job is finished. I'll put the chairs on the tables, turn out the lights and lock the universe behind me when I leave.

Pff...it's their own stupid fault. You could see that thing from halfway across the map. And you could here the "beep" too. Hopefully they bring it back, I miss the good old days of the Halo 3 beta.

Wayne Jarvis, Attorney at Law; I have a responsibility to tell you that there is no candy in this office.

I think trip mines from your own team should have some sort of indicator above them, like Claymores in Call of Duty. I pretty much use Trip Mines like Claymores, anyway.
