It will take a looooooonnnng time for him to make a good AI
of course, he could make a bad one and then just publish patches for the next ten years.

Signing out now.

For those of you who can't read between the lines. Halo will be bungies next project. I wasn't sure until I read about the new hire Dyckoff. Why would Bungie hire an AI programmer with expertise in first person shooters if they weren't making a first person shooter. So whether or not its Halo 3 or Halo the prequel, it will be Halo of some kind. Thank God.

Max Dyckhoff. Bungie can only become better with his acquisition. Whatever he's working on it will be good. And Bungie has made mostly FPS games. Doesn't guarentee H3 is next. Take over the world Bungie. My anticipation is building. That is the best part!!!

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

"I then started to hang out on The Core (hi Rex!) and discussed "Blam!"— which of course turned into Halo."

What does that mean? What was Halo previously called? Why was it's previous name edited out? Is the next project "Blam!"?? Maybe "Blam!" is what this new project is going to be called, and it's the origination of the whole halo universe. So, it's not Halo, but it is halo at the same time. It's just "Blam!".
So, I have figured it out, the next project is BLAM!!!!!

wow theres a british guy in bungie.....still lets not forget that Eric Nylund the writer of The Fall of Reach and First Strike halo books is British and he is also writing the script for the halo movie! ( thats no rumour btw.....bungie said it on this site themselves ) still a brit thats taking part in making the Game! so bungie hasnt forgotten about us! lol

and someone on Live thought i was scottish but i had to keep trying to convince him that i am English, and im from Merry Old London Town!

and who ever did that bad impression of an english person....yeh it was crap! still the worst i heard was actually on live again and theyw ere doing an Australian impression instead.....so being British i had to correct them...lol

anyways congrats Max......make us Brits proud and show these Yankies what we're really made off!

Phrog pilots, reckless and free. We would strap into our birds, set the engines on fire, and leave these earthly bonds with a chorus of WHOP WHOP WHOP. Akin to beating your chest and howling in defiance at the rest of the world.

-blam!- was the code name used for Halo:CE. Just like the code name for Marathon used to be...Marathon. ;)

...and in the end, this will all make sense.
