The trailer looks fantastic, if a little too fast paced. I can't wait for the next reach vidoc talking(/explaining) about reach's multiplayer features, could ya drop any hints as to when that will be released? Pretty please?

This vid really does nothing for me. All I see is that Bungie compiled features from other games to put into Halo. Taking the redicle bloom, jet packs (glider tech), and the map callouts on the screen from ShadowRun. Also that noob tube type gun looks like they got the idea from COD.

IMO if you have a game that is supposed to be set before Halo 1 you shouldn't have weapons and armor abilities that were not in any of the other games. I guess I will just wait and see when the beta comes, but for me that vid created zero hype.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

I wish they would of spent this much effort on Halo 3. It looks good.

I watched that video and my brain went insane. I honestly am finding it difficult to describe how excited I am about the beta and being able to play that.

So many new gametypes. So many tweaks to the gameplay. So much to try out.

Oh and Jet Packs, because who wouldn't want a jet pack.

  • 03.03.2010 7:28 AM PDT

i can only count to jagermeister.

I agree with Rash to an extent. These are a lot of features that exist in other games. Halo: CE had a lot of features that existed in other games too. The difference is that Bungie does it right. Loadouts will be balanced, framerates will be good, etc. Plus, the player population alone will make this game much more fun than most. You don't have that in the other games. They are taking a bunch of good ideas and making them all into one "crazy sausage".

As far as weapons and features that weren't in Halo 1- Halo 1 was one Spartan on a busted up ship that just escaped a massive battle. I don't think they took the time to grab all the weapons and technology from Reach before it was destroyed. *Boom* 'splained.

That's pretty good for 2 hours of music without explosions and people yelling. I don't care if you steal it, but God does...

That'll do, urk. That'll do.

I woke up this morning thinking, YES THE BETA!!! WHOO HOO. Go on my xbox, start up ODST and all I get is a Vidoc! I was like, Uh Oh! Went to www.bungie.net and looked around and I discovered that it was May 3rd and not March. Boy was I pissed! But, Now I just have to think about it in my head for another 2 months waiting and waiting and waiting... Good job bungie it looks great! (HUGE FAN)

This looks great! I couldn't help but notice the 1 seconds clip of the phantom, I am 99% sure we will not be able to pilot them but I think it would be cool if there was a gametype where an assaulting team is dropped off by one (which may be a reality).

I can't wait till the BETA!

  • 03.03.2010 7:35 AM PDT

How does Bungie know just what to do to get my heart racing?

I'll never understand.

i watched it. and i cried. literally.

  • 03.03.2010 7:39 AM PDT

wow =O Jetpacks =D

We’re looking back laughing because they called us crazy, but we took that chance on that feeling, living for the moment, we were spinning in. Maybe we were a lot of things, but we weren't crazy.

HOLY CRAP

So the jetpack is definately one of the perks (I think they are called loadouts). The perks that I saw were Invisiblity, the one that deflected the ghost (it is probably the quick shield boost that bungie talked about earlier on in development, but I never thought for it to be used in this way), jetpack, and sprint. These all had distinct icons in the bottom left. One of the icons looked something like this(<>) but I could never really tell what that perk did. It comes up multiple times during the video. Does anybody have any idea? Also, at around :30 seconds check out the number of enemies on the radar. That looks insane! Also, at :34 the guy is carying 4 plasma grenades and 4 frag grenades! That could get a little annoying if each player can carry that many grenades.

It looks great to be honest. I just hope you guys didn't try to spice it up and change things too much to the point that the game loses it's entertainment value. Then again, I already know better that you wouldn't screw things up so easily, so I'm not too worried.

I'm not sure if this has been discussed but ok the one thing i think halo has always lacked is that when a person quits from a game people cant join back in to make it fare during the middle of it and it sucks like in well i hate to say another game but in call of duty you can join a game while its in progress to make it a fare game instead of like 4 on 3 it would be 4 on 4 again because someone quit, now i now there are penalties for quitting but i dunno people still do it, even i do cus I usually end up by myself, 1 vs 4, so i see no reason to just get owned by 4 guys. so thats my opinion but maybe u guys have a better way to fix that
question is there a better place this should go

also loved the film it looks epic thats my only complaint to the game that ive ever had its an amazing game

Bungie, I want to have your babies. You have just put everything we have always wanted into one small trailer.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

J... J... Jetpacks?!

the (< >) icon is probably an assassination perk..er ability... seeing as it kinda looks like a ninja and the guy who had it was performing said move. I caught a diamond trapezoid one for jet pack. a shield n lock for the power shield. a diamond lightning bolt for sprint. the all seeing eye for invis. and that (< >) for assassination. plus did anyone else notice that right when it says "The Arena" it zooms in on two spartans fighting and one looks huge, like a Spartan II pummeling a Spartan III. the spartan two had some crazy headgear on too.

The metaphor 'dropping a bomb' could've easily been replaced by 'prepping the mega slingshot'. (:
