and if its the final how does that work.

so far it seems that ur health and sheild are the same meter, once ur shield over loads and pops u only have a few hits till ur dead, its just a simpler and more streamlined system

That hud was only used for E3 because the final hud isnt finished. Well, its finished now, but it wasnt. The new hud will have a health meter and a seprete meter for the shield

Yea, did u notice that when ever the MC got hit in the E3, no health got taken away, I think that they gave u that HUD just to give u the feeling of wot it will look like, i think that HE could not die in that Video, just incase he buggered up! lol

"Help Help I'm being repressed! Come and see the Violence inherent in the system!"
"Bloody peasant!"
"Oh did you see that? you saw him repress me?"

Also notice when he got hit in the front, little lightning spikes "floated" across his screen like you see when you shoot someone with the shied on, the "glow" "electrically"! how cool is that!

<soz for all the "" but i dont know how to describe it better than that>

BETTER HAVE A HEALTH BAR!

The new HUD is perfect, I love it!
Gives good, and alot of info.

I think it's final, and there's a little round circle at the end of the shield meter, and the circle truns color to show for heath.

Blue: perfect heath.
Yellow: medium heath.
Red: low heath.

Get it? Got it? Good!

It's friggin' beta version people. You can't speculate on that. Who knows how it's gonna look like. Maybe you will be able to customize it. Just wait and see on November 9th damnit.

I think that the 'secret shots' (i think thats the best name to call them) are going to be nothing like the ones we wil see...

Read the last couple of updates, they are talking about renedering effects that will a massive talking point... looking at the 'secret shots' it didn't look anything amazing (bungie standards) to me...

I think the whole thing about health or the health bar comes down to one question...

Why did you need the health bar, or health ?

Do you die in halo if you get hit by a charged plasma shot...?

I think you need to play halo a bit more...
