They started quite a while back.

Around the time of Halo 3's release, or even some short time before that.

If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

Chances are that they had already started some time before Halo 3 even shipped out. Once Halo 3 finished they focused most of the team on it.

The Beta code is on the Halo 3: ODST disk, so they are pass that.

I am Very happy about how the graphics are going to be on that game. I saw a youtube video of some pictures from halo reach and they were awsome

I make a legitimate thread on the most logical choice for the next Bond actor, and you take that away from me by creating a parody thread indirectly connecting my thread to yours.

I hope your kids have bad influences and develop bad personalities. I wish this with all my heart.

If it was on the disk, hackers would be playing it already.
Dur. Bungie's not as stupid as you.

What?

Chances are that the only "code" there is on the ODST disk is the key that will just allow you to download the Beta. When I got the Beta invitation for Halo 3 Beta, they just sent a code for me to redeem, once i did that i got access to the download. The ODST game will be basically that code, but it doesn't mean that just because the code is in the game that they are necessarily past that stage.

They will probably stay in Beta till about a month before going gold and then they will release the Epsilon again for employees.

I just hope they don't cut any levels short. Halo 2 was missing levels. Halo 3 was missing at least one Guardian forrest level, and one underground level that was cut in pre-production. I also hope all of the levels have an actual purpose instead of rescuing some random marines or taking a long walk towards the Ark.

The way I understood it was that there was an "invite" to partake in the Beta program for Halo Reach included with the Halo 3 ODST disk.

I never really paid much attention as I can wait for the official release. :)

You know more about this stuff than I do (I didn't have an Xbox until 2008, so I didn't get to see how the Halo 3 Beta worked), so, thanks for clearing that up for me.

Wherever you roam
so far from home
you'll be safe from peril
life threatening and terrible
if you avoid David Powel
and keep track of your towel.

Cuts are part of the development process, they aren't missing because they aren't meant to be there. They were just concepts that didn't make it all the way through the pipe.

Try not to make any claims about X or Y thing if you are not 100% sure about it. Or they will eat you alive here or flame you with the UNSC standard M7057/DP.

I prefer the NA4, much lighter. Of course it was in Halo Wars so a lot of the idiots around here would say its not "cannon" (misspelling intentional).

Fail.

I bet your uncle works at Epic and gave you a golden sniper when Gears 2 came out, huh?

Um... I like Halo? I don't really know what to say. I'm a student at the moment, I hope to become a criminal profiler, and I enjoy pretty much everything as long as it's good.

They've been working on it since a little before or after they shipped Halo 3. I truly hope that if they don't have time to finish they will choose to delay the game a few weeks/months in order to add extra polish to the game. We don't want a repeat of Halo 2, right? I also doubt the beta is in the ODST disk seeing as how if it was, hackers would be all over it.

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.”

To the point where releasing details would be premature.

Group invites will be treated very poorly because the Care Package is empty.

They've had 3 years and we still don't know -blam!-. Even still, it won't be rushed.

Bungie has been working on it since before ODST, since they were talking about having to drop an entire team unless a project was created. That project was ODST. They are fairly far, since the Reach Beta Testing will be coming out in 2010, and Reach is coming in the Fall, the same year.

  • 10.18.2009 12:37 AM PDT

I'm the cult of personality,
I call it like i see it, if i feel the need to be blunt and to the point, then i will, if i feel the need to be very detailed, i will, im here to stay and im here to do things my way, if you respect that or not is your choice, not mine,
and don't worry, while i don't agree with everyone's opinion, i do respect everyone's opinion.

What? like Halo 3/2 weren't? lol.

Bungie cuts cuts and cuts some more, and they end up shipping a skeleton.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Considering it is based off of Reach I am positive that the game will have no "pointless missions". There should be action at every turn.

It's Reach for Christ's sake.
