Spartans never die. They're just missing in action.

that mystery sound for a covenant weapon sounds like a grenade launcher that fires plasma grenades that can fire up to 3 grenades after an extended charge.

"Your an idiot." - Oh, the irony...

Mystery weapon sounds like a mortar or grenade launcher.

Love the new rifle sounds, really loud and heavy.

If you're looking for me, message me. I'll answer. School/work keeps me off of BNet more often than I like.

Man, I'm gone for a week or two, and all THIS?! Epic update, and good stuff on Reach. Can't wait to see more.

Spartan 1337

Mystery weapons sounds like a Rocket Launcher with some kind of homing targeting system. Think it'll need to lock and charge first, after which many (4?) rockets come flying at you, which split into smaller rockets, bringing glorious destruction :D.

A cooler, wield-able version of the Jericho missile! xD

Anyway, I really enjoyed this update =D.

Proud tester of the Halo 3 beta.

Aww -blam!- yeah! Awesome update, answered a lot of my questions. And that mysterious weapon sounds badass!

halo reach is gonna cool

  • 01.31.2010 7:28 AM PDT

yes it is

  • 01.31.2010 7:31 AM PDT

Love Bungie.

Ooooh! Awesome! That mystery weapon sounded CAWAZEY!!!

  • 01.31.2010 9:09 AM PDT

Is it just me, or are the links for the sound effects broken?

  • 01.31.2010 9:24 AM PDT

It's all fun and games until someone files a restraining order.

So this is Reach. Halo Combat evolved would be proud. By the way is can we expect any multiplayer news in the weeks to come? I also think that Bungie will not tell us about the blam! weapon just yet. They do nead something to show us later. I could be wrong because they still have those armor abilities to show and everyone and their mother wants to know what this thing is. But what every this weapon is it sounds BIG!

So he explanation for these Spartans being higher ranked is that they dont want some other higher rank dudes ordering them around while they are in a mission?

Umm.... the only person that can change the parameters of a mission is the dude that gave the mission. If anyone of rank can pull anyone whenever they want the military forces wouldnt get anything done.

The mystery weapon sounds like some kind of futuristic mortar.

  • 01.31.2010 6:03 PM PDT

I was about to say it sounded like a laser/plasma mortar

  • 01.31.2010 6:50 PM PDT

I think it sounds more like the Mortar from Gears of War 2. You put it down lock on to area u want hit. It loads then fires. You hear and see the missiles coming down. then the explosions!! I got a good feeling thats wat it is

  • 01.31.2010 6:55 PM PDT

tis a time to have...

guarantee that i will love this game if...

foooeeeehammer takes part!!!

"Knowledge is My Power" - Dark Mr Vader

I know bungie will make a great looking game. With all the textures and all the cool lighting effects. But please Bungie, please, focus on what really is important at the core: GAMEPLAY. The game needs to be smooth and with a great flow. Running 60fps, no network problems, great maps for MP. Stuff like that. The better the game looks the worse the gameplay is. Halo: CE = Awesome, smooth. Halo 2 = Unbalanced but fun. Halo 3 = Laggy, rough game. Halo: Reach = Better be damn good IMO

That cluster weapon sure sounds cool... incredibly deadly too. Like a Covenant cluster grenade launcher.

Great update! Good to see I was wrong about the mirrored textures.
