Never got to play the Beta, and I was wondering about this the other day...

The legendary ending for Halo 4 is Masturcheef and Arby making love.

I heard the trip mine could attach to vehicles, but I don't know if that's true or not.

In the beta, the spartan laser had 10 shots. Not 5.

The graphics.

But thats a given.

The power drainer is no longer a sphere of blue smoke.

The bubble shield does not come out of the radar jammer device.

the carbine was stronger (1 shot less to kill = 7 shot kill, now 8 shot kill).

This.

The Laser shot 10 (now 5) separate beames per one burst, and the beams were a lot slower, so you could sweep the laser as you shot, and hit multiple targets.

The Sniper looked and felt more like the H2 Sniper, in terms of the smoke trail and less recoil. Personally, I liked the BETA Sniper better.

Spike Grenades were HUGE on High Ground lol.

Not sure about other stuff TBH. Check BETA tages if you want to see. This was always my favourite. It's Krypticc's BETAtage and he was honestly a beast.

Here's the other one I used to watch heaps. The Eurotage.

I'm 18 right now. My hobbies are drawing, outdoor stuff, building stuff, video games, and reading. I would like to become a welder, or get my CDl license to become a truck driver, and drive around country.

In the Halo 3 Beta, the MA5C Assault Rifle had an animation where the charging handle would move back and forth when firing. In the final version, this was changed for reasons Bungie has never revealed.

The Trip Mine in the Beta was far more deadly than its final version, as the Beta Trip Mine could stick to the underside of an unmanned vehicle. As soon as this rigged vehicle was touched, the mine would trigger.

The reticule for the Spartan Laser was different in the Beta Version. The Beta reticule no longer featured a dot in the center, and the cross-hair's four corners weren't connected to one another. They instead formed a diamond in the center, resulting in a vague outline of where you were aiming.

The Spartan models in the beta were far more detailed than the final version, including paint chips and dents in the armor. They also had a bit more contrast in the visor of their armor. In addition, by what can be observed from the paint chips and dents, it can be noted that the Spartan model used in Halo 3 Beta is actually the same model they used for John-117 in the actual Campaign.

Ah yes, when it was actually effective against vehicles.
