Why do the covernant not attack MC?

Is the arbitar with MC?

Where has the forerunner ship gone if MC was on it last we seen?

If he was going to the ARC is that what we see in the trailer or not?

If it is not the ARC why is MC there because the ARC is where you activate the rest of the halos so what could be more important than stopping that?

Is that an assault rifle or battle rifle?

That 3 mile "Thingy" opened kinda fast when you think about it. Do you think any of the Covie Captial ships were too slow to get out of the way? What were they called?

Is it at all possible for a video of the fly-by around the trailer area shown to journalists at E3 to be made available? If acquiescence requires more sacrilege, please inform.

What gun is the MC holding? It looks like a combo assault/battle rifle... could we get a little info about it?

Great job Bungie... made my insides tingle like first time seeing the spiderman 2 trailer. Anyway. Alot of people are talking about how they can't see anybody flying the banshee's and that it's being piloted by somthing else. But from a Dev. stand point is it easier to animate/load a vehicle without a person. We can see this in some cut scenes from Halo 2. Like the beginning scene with the banshee's and the opening scene when the MC and Sarge are flying into Mobasa with the empty warthog's driving in. OR I'm totally wrong and its Grunts who are flying, :)

Is the Assault rifle making a comeback? Will it replace any weapons from the Halo 2 Arsenal?

Are you planning on adding a function to turn off the HUD and other indicators so film make machinima without having to manipulate the game in any way, and to give all players the opportunity to really experiance the detail of Halo 3?

What`s A Theme Master? Why Are You So Special? Im Serious..


I'll save Frankie the trouble, since you probably aren't asking him (The purpose of this thread) Sir Fragula is a Theme Master because he submitted a Theme that Bungie approved and uses on the Groups Pages.

When I die please bury me deep!
Place an MA5 down by my feet!
Don't cry for me, don't shed no tear!
Just pack my box with PT gear!
'Cuz one early morning 'bout zero-five
The ground will rumble, there'll be lighting in the sky!
Don't you worry, don't come undone!
It's just my ghost on a PT run!

Heya! Just wondering if the Assualt Rifle is here to stay? and if so are you going to be keeping the battle rifle? Or is the pistol from Halo 1 going to be making a appearance?

and finnaly.. if these things are going to be brought back what kind of things are you guys going to be doing for Multiplayer balance between weapons... because theres alot of people worried theres going to be another 3 shot kill weapon and everything will be useless.

Well Bungie we can't wait!! Take your time guys, all of us are proud of you and we know your doing your best!

1.What is Bungie’s obsession with the number 7?

2.Are you guys really religious?, because you’ve implemented many things from the Holy Book The Bible in the Halo’s.

3.Will the environments change over time (Multiplayer & Campaign), like sand clearing open a passage into an enemy base over time in multiplayer?

4.Will Vehicles get affected by weather as well?

I heard someone say that you were using the Unreal engine. Is that true? If not what engine are you using?

Firstly: Well done bungie on the trailer- simply outstanding!
Secondly: It is thought that you can see the Chiefs visor glow in the corner which looks suspiciously like the LED signals described in the book when Spartans communicate. Is this intentional and will the other surviving spartans make an appearance?

What was the total production time of the trailer?

What's bungie's next next project?

Gauging from the apparent level of devastation and seeming liberality of the covenant's movement on the earth's surface I think it is fair to deduce that mankind on earth must have been destroyed if not totally certainly almost. Due to the fact that there is no hope for mankind on the surface of earth the ar(c/k?) must behave as a colony for humans (animals and plants too I imagine)for to assume that the Chief would repopulate a planet as well as destroying the covenant is ridiculous, albeit hilarious (this assumption of mankink's need to exist in primacy is based on the necessity of a gamer to succeed in his/her quest). When the ark is investigated by the covenant they will inevitably come across this population and would destroy or capture those humans comprising it, unless the colonial population possess greatly advanced technology, forerunner technology, capable of winning the battle that was seemingly lost, against the covenant. How True is this line of thought without destroying the plot for halo 3?

Arie, thanks for the games, really enjoy them, can't wait for halo 3!

Hey Frankie! What I want to know (if allowed at this point) is are there going to be more ways to personalize your multiplayer character, ie colours, logos? Also, expanding on my last question, for Halo 2, the addition of the playable Elite in multiplayer was great, but how about the two everyone wants, the Grunt and the Hunter?
Plus I just remembered that by the end of Halo 2, the Elites, Grunts and Hunters had all left the Covenant, any chance of an Alien-Human alliance? (and if there is, all the more reason for those characters to be playable)
