I personally think there will be a lot of glitches. I don't know how long the game has been under development, but if it just started its development after Halo 3 debuted, then that isn't a very long enough time to ensure a glitch-free game especially since Bungie doesn't have a very big team of designers. This large environment that Bungie has given us will probably allow for many loopholes within the game. Does anyone else think there will be quite a few glitches?

Go Rams and Missouri!

Probably not many. Halo 3 barely had any (only 4 or 5 campaign levels allowed you to get out).

Well this game will have a very large environment on top of several levels/missions within it.

Why does Bungie put us through such avid anticipation?

Two years is not long at all! They didn't start from scratch either, they already had an updated engine to work with. I think there may be some VISR glitches and some firefight scoring glitches and maybe some with the map, but nothing major.

A grunt will kick you in the balls wearing a flaming Recon helmet if you find any.

Many games have less than 2 years of developmental time.

I imagine this game has been in development for longer than you think.

  • 08.04.2009 9:57 PM PDT

Do you see the tigers too?!?!?

well who knows, there have been games that have been being made for over 10 years such as too human which had way too many glitches for how long its development was and it could be a great game being made in only two years, who knows ya know?

How many glitches do you think will be in the game?


All of them.

  • 08.04.2009 10:42 PM PDT

I'm gonna say...maybe 2 at the most. These open world games are tough to catch all the glitches, but a glitch is just that, a glitch. It doesn't happen every time you run the program.

I don't think that there are going to be that many glitches for the main reason that this game has been under production for a long while now and have most likely worked out a lot of the kinks.

  • 08.04.2009 11:16 PM PDT

Halo 3 Beta provided a large opportunity to find and fix glitches. With any demos or betas released, you know some of us will look for things. Be it, getting out of maps or just plain cheating for others. Bungie will be on their "A game" looking for and fixing any that may appear. As massive as games are now days, you would need thousands of hours of game play to find all the problems, hours that they dont have. That's what the live updates are for. Let us find them as we play, let them fix them as needed.

Seriously, though, you're asking us to predict a numeral that would be controversial when we think we know it anyways.

  • 08.04.2009 11:21 PM PDT

Something on par with Halo 3.

I'd iamgine there's gonna be more level escapes though.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

They have also had 5 years of experience with the engine and all of the QA from Halo 3, in addition to whatever they did for ODST.

Bungie has an advantage of been the best and I doubt there are any glitches considering on how strict Bungie is with their games, expecially Halo3:ODST.

About me: I am a vicious wolf of a man.

But really am sweet at heart. =)

There better not be considering the game is done now and they are just testing and packaging

13. Four of them will be major(game crashing locations), six will get you out of the map and three will be life altering.

Jokes aside, i think the game will be glitch free, its being made off of the Halo 3 platform so they didnt have to work from the ground up. In my opinion there will be less than Halo 3.
