Hey, after watching the gamecon video i was curious as to, whats the situation on fresh ammo and med kits.

I heard you get re spawns every round (not wave). Can anyone confirm this?

Gears of war 3 looks amazing i can't wait for halo 4 master chief is a pretty cool guy he kills aliens and doesn't afraid of anything

nah i think you get re healed after each wave and also a round is exactly the same as a wave

No, a round is comprised of 5 waves

Round = 3 sets
set = 5 waves

I have no idea. I doubt that we have the ammo we start with, and we need to pick up Covie guns when that ammo runs out, but it could be the case.

As for respawns, I think it's when they're gone, they're gone.

Yeah, but would i make sense to have like 4 rockets for the ENTIRE firefight. I think there should be periodical spawns.

Actually, it's:

5 waves per round.
3 rounds pet set.

True, true ...

Maybe a Pelican drops some weapons in pods, like they do at the first tower in The Covenant in Halo 3. I do remember in the beginning of Firefight in Security Zone, there was a Rocket Launcher on a wall. Maybe it respawns every now and then, and maybe there's weapons scattered in different areas around the map.

Sorry but the order is :

Bonus round, comes after a set.
A set: Compromised of 3 rounds
A round: Compromised of 5 waves.


So there is 3 rounds, they are each compromised of 5 waves, this is called a set, after completing a set, you get a bonus round.

Actually a set is 3 rounds.
and a round is 5 waves.

I hope weapons do respawn though, and maybe health packs, I don't care much about that though.
