Can I interrupt this orgy with a serious question?

Is that map actually playable? Looks like you could struggle to find people with 16 players on the map


They have completely rewritten the engine that they use... mayhap there could be a possibility of larger parties... plus there will probably be a lot of vehicles and it looks like they actually have the falcon in mp, so it can probably be used as a transport or something... just theory.


PS.. Just because the map resembles blood gultch doesn't mean that it is the actual blood gultch from the first halo found. It will be a place on reach that has a canyon and bungie decided to design it after blood gultch because that map is so popular.... why do you people think that noble will end up on halo... that is ludicrous. That also leaves the ability of it to still be in campaign b/c it isn't the original blood gultch. It's really not that hard of a concept to grasp...


You're right it might not be the original blood gulch but is obviously on a halo ring, it is plainly seen in the horizon numbnuts.

Yay for the return of Blood Gulch! I hope that the number of players is upgraded from 16...this incarnation of Blood Gulch looks absolutely gargantuan.

dude is that hologram an actual armor ability or did rooster teeth f--- with me cuase that would be convient fo multiplayer...

  • 07.12.2010 1:53 PM PDT

YES!!! Blood Gulch is back, suddenly Halo Reach jumped to the top of my list of favorite Halo Games. Great armor customization, a space battle level, customizable firefight, armor abilities, formidable Elites, a flyable UNSC Falcon in the multiplayer maps, and cool assassination moves, what more could anyone ask for (other than a flyable pelican)?

hmmm... watching the rvb psa for my forth time, i believe i figured out one of the blurred custom armor options. People already know of the scarf option but i want to add the option that you can change the color of the 'shield generator' on the characters back. Proof of this can be seen on the backs of red team. each character has a different generator color ( sarge with green, grif with orange and simmons with i believe was yellow). you cant see blue team's though....anyway thats what i would want to add...the color generator and scarf option...
this psa must have been made sometime ago cause there was still bugs in the system ( sarge holding both the flag and the shotgun).

and a slight change to the dmr too....no longer 12 shots but 15...much needed

happy gaming

Through my journey I have believed without doubt of the power inside of me. I used it with calm covalence, determined ability, and peace. Those around me see it as a guide, a beacon they have called the light through their darkness. Now, Descended as I may be, fallen into the Hollow Shell of a world by my own folly I still use this power. Through memory forgotten and allies fallen I remain strong. This power inside me will one day reveal itself, and I will use it as I always have for I am Lintro

I was just coming here to post the same exact thing...
So the multiplayer maps are campaign maps now and vice versa? Does that say something about the sandbox nature? Which comes first? Multiplayer maps that work in single player or single player maps that work in multiplayer?

ML: It's a good question. We take multiplayer very seriously; we actually have higher standards of really finessed gameplay within the (multiplayer) environment and we scrutinize those areas tremendously. Now we've taken that across the board for Reach. Every space within Reach has that type of scrutiny applied to it. The multiplayer maps as a result are integrated into the campaign and have that level of scrutiny applied to them so they play excellently and it's really important for us to light them well, to make them play well for that multiplayer action players expect to see.

from: http://haloreachcentral.com/x10-interview-bungie-talks-all-th ings-halo-reach

So either they changed their minds or .... either one of two things... like Pirar7eHun7er said, Noble 6 escapes reach and ends up in Blood Gulch on the original Ring and subsequently then die after Master Chief blows up the Ring... or maybe.. just maybe.. we might be getting Halo: Combat Evolved HD! (I agree.. this is a stretch)


they say that they intergrade the maps into the games. That could mean that they make the multiplayer maps are made first, then the ones that fit into the story are intergraded to the campaign. My guess is that the new blood gulch is just an awsome remake.

I skimmed the forms and saw no speculation about 32 multiplayer. Does no one else think this map is too large for just 16 people?


I agree, maybe their moving up a step. Or that in order to explore the outside of the map you need to bypass that barrier that kills you after, was it five seconds. Maybe you can turn off the gardian in custom games.

I like to knit sweaters.....and by knit I mean PUNCH....and by sweaters I mean babies.

Macgyver can build an airplane out of gum and paper clips, but Evil One can kill him and take it.

Is this it? Hopefully there will be something else later lol. I wanted a Forge Vidoc :(

It's my birthday Bungie, whip one up for me :p

EDIT: Firstttttttt


This is it? Are you a spoiled little brat or what?

That was an awesome update! Cool hologram, and Blood Gulch! Yessss! Just when you think they can't possibly make Halo any more interesting....they do.

Thanks Bungie

Bungie said that all multiplayer maps come from the campaign. If you look in the backround you will see a halo ring rising up on the horizon. Does this mean that at somepoint in the campaign we will be going to Halo with Master Chief? Or is it just that this map truly isn't in Reach?

NO THERE IS NO HALO IN REACH THIS ALL HAPPEND BEFORE HALO:CE AND IM PREETY SURE IT IS ALL ON THE PLANET REACH!!!!!!!!!


I am aware of the fact that this is a prequel, but Bungie said that every multiplayer map is pulled from the campaign and if you look in the backround on the homepage you will see a halo ring rising on the backround which leads me to beleive that the entire campaign will not be on Reach.

no not ALL of them will be from campain

ALPHAxxDRAGON: I think you may be going a little too far into the past with Halo Reach. If you read the book Fall of Reach by Eric Nyland Reach was destroyed only a short time before The Pillar of Autumn left on a course that would lead them to Alpha Halo. So it is easily conceivable that Noble 6 could slip onboard The Autumn or possibly one of the Covenant ships as well. So it is not entirely impossible that there will be no halo in Reach.

reach is before the fall of reach and if he did slip on board where is he in halo ce all of youre facts are based on the maps being from campaign but theyre not if bungie said that they ment all of the firefight maps

YES THEY ARE! Bungie said that every single multiplayer map in the game when it comes out will also be in the campaign. There is no way that they said this about firefight because they released it in an update in the spring before we even knew about firefight and if Bungie says that every map will be from campaign then that will happen. Obviously there will be a Halo in some form in Reach as it is clearly seen in the backround.

P.S. I will post a link to the weekly update as soon as i can.

its photoshop you can tell because it looks like hes standng in midair

  • 07.13.2010 9:51 PM PDT

I understand what you said, but sorry.. photoshop is for photos. videos are not single photographs. Also, its very difficult to "photoshop" an animated scene, even worse from multiple angles. The footage was probably from the game, and either:
1) armour abilities can be used with objectives as an option
2) this "option" was specially made for this scene/video

You know Ghettysburg and i have been arguing with you on this for around 5 days so I guess we'll just have to wait and see. And you know what if I'm wrong then congrats! You have just won the most pointless discussion in the history of mankind what are you going to do next!

ALPHxxDRAGON, You don't have to be so crushing to other peoples opinions and theories. Sure maybe this guy thinks that batman will be in Reach but that is ther own personal opinion and just because another guy thinks that batman won't be in Reach doesn't mean that guy#2 has to be so harsh. So what if you don't agree with other people's opinions, you can be a little lenient towards other's theories.

And for the record sometimes you do have to cuss because something is just that sweet. Comment page 15 10th from the top...

I went back and played halo ce and the towers out of the canyon looked like the exact same design as one of the towers on the second level. (The one with the hill next to it that has some marine snipers on it)

Austex, Although armor abilities while holding flags might be an option that was definately not in-game. If you look closely Sarge was holding a shotgun(or AR) while carrying the flag, so I guess it was edited. If you look at other RvB videos Rooster Teeth has been known to do that sort of thing.

Live free, or die epically.

okay. this has gone on waaay too long and taken up too much space.

Does it really matter if all of the maps aren't from campaign? If you are so rabid in the belief that Bungie told us weeks ago that all of the maps for mp will be in campaign, then prove it. I'm not being harsh, I'm being fair. If they said they are, then cool, but keep in mind that that was weeks ago, before zbr and the final cuts. Who knows? It may have changed.

Point is, don't slam others if you have no reason. In other words, don't talk the talk if there's no walk to walk.
