January 30, 2004 (Warthog's Day)
The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

In the new video Stanten has a SMG and a Battle Rifle. He goes to a needer holds Y and picks up the Needler in his left hand. He now has an SMG and Needler while still keeping the Battle Rifle. You can tell he still has the BR because after he kills Max he walks over to the body and immediatly picks up BR rounds.

But you may not be able to switch them until you drop the third weapon.

Yes...

One good thing is that one rocket shot dosn't kill a warthog (blow it up)

By the way did you see the ghost getting blown up i mean half of it was flying through the air!

Also the vidioe onlylooks 10 times better then the screens.

go HALO 2 go HALO 2 go HALO 2.

yeah it seems the warthog is still a tough machine. cant wait to see more videos.

the ghost ,man it can look pretty battered huh? but it seems to be a lot faster and i love the "grav-lift" style effect underneath.

the new warthog railgun-esque thing looks like a killer. i wonder if the scorpion will come with different types of weapons, a replacement for that pants machine gun would be nice....

I knew it and you knew it but other people were still arguing that it will not happen. They argue hat the E3 demo was a year ago and has changed since then. My point was to prove to those that you can hold 3 weapons on not just in single player.

From the link I gave above the second video shows dual wielding.

I find it kills the game just slightly that you can hold 3 weapons, but it's still going to be the best game.

I don't think it does becuase all the duel wielding will only be good at close range. If you don't have a mid range weapon for your 3rd one you would be at a disadvantage to everyone elsel.

You are really good at noticing these little things aren't you?

Yes, looks like you have the one Two handed Slot and then Two one handed slots.
The Shotgun, Battle Rifle, Carbine, Rocket Launcher and Sniper Rifle can go into your two handed slot.
The SMG, Needlers, Plasma pistols, Plasma Knife can go into your one handed slots.

I think that's balanced. The Battle Rifle vs. Twin SMG's. It'll be close because the Battle Rifle has the burst fire more powerful rounds while the SMG's pepper down your shields and then chew you up.

No, if you noticed, the elite was holding a plasma (energy) sword and a battle rifle. Once the SPARTAN killed the elite with the dual wield, he swapped both weapons (the plasma pistol and the SMG) for the battle rifle and the sword.

*sigh*

For those that haven't taken the events in their video to their logical conclusion:
1) You still only have two weapons slots.
2) To dual-wield in one slot, you need to hold a one-handed weapon, walk over another, and press/hold Y.
3) Theoretically, you can have four weapons (such as SMG/Needler, and Plasma Pistol/Pistol). This would be both slots devoted to dual-wielding.
4) Halo is not ruined.
5) Be happy.
6) Go home.
7) This is the last one, and that's the tru7h.
