Subject: Did anybody notice the locked doors

in the ign game demo when Joe Staten is showing the map if you look to the key on the map you will see a red bar that says locked door. As he moves around the map there are a ton of red bars blocking entrance to certain places list your ideas of what will happen with them below. I think you will have to do certain jobs for the superintendent to help fix up the city then he will give you access.

its because that was just the prep version of the game, not the final one. I saw a video of the same disk in firefight and as one of the testers were cycling through the maps there were only crater and security zone,

It will be semi linear in design probably, you have the option of going to 3 different areas, you can go in any order, but you must do those three in order to go to the next area or get the next missions, otherwise the plot wouldnt make sense

NO GROUP INVITES!!!

I understood that at first you're going through a railroad like other Halos, until the first flashback, after which you can go around freely... maybe some of the locked doors need to be unlocked? Say, you defeat a brute pack guarding a switch that opens an additional route to next flashback?

I think the best way of describing it is by looking at far cry 2 perhaps? with far cry 2s missions being replaced with flashbacks

and the flashback sections are "on the rails" not the city bits, unless i misread your post

that is what i am trying to say you MIGHT have to do certain things in order to move through the campaign.

from what i saw, it looked like the doors were on the edge of the map, some were in the middle but not many.

i don't know, well... just wait and see.

  • 08.03.2009 12:41 PM PDT

yeah there aren't that many, but there are quite a few but, what i want to know is what people think they will have to do to unlock those doors.

We know it was a demo. But the map should still be accurate, but you'll warp if you go to certain places.

No this is what You'll be doing as you will rush the whole campaign.
I, However will find the audio tracks, extra clues, easter eggs, do some engineer seein' and find the skulls, if there are any.

  • 08.04.2009 5:18 PM PDT

yeah probably, but i hope it doesn't just open by itself I hope you have to hit some kind of switch or something.
