Hey, I noticed MC has got some slightly modified armour. The BR seems to be the original BR yet has slight modifications to it. I wonder if MC has got that visor upgrade that the engineer in HALO 2 didnt have time to fit. What do the giant ribcage sort of structers come from in the trailer? They look like the super structure of a ship. Halo 3 is gonna be pretty amazing. Are we ever going to see that myth of an ATV that everyone goes on about. I heard it was ment to be in 2 but it got pushed aside. I know i will be up and early on the release date to get my pre orderd HALO 3 copy. Well i gotta get a 360 1st. Cya

My friend Dark Gh0st47 has (i think) found out the mystery to Halo! It has to deal with the bible, in Revelations 1:17<-- John spartans last name) it says... WHEN I SAW HIM, I FELL AT HIS FEET AS THOUGH DEAD. THEN HE PLACED HIS RIGHT HAND ON ME AND SAID: "DO NOT BE AFRAID. I AM THE FIRST AND THE LAST. ! AM THE LIVInG ONE; I WAS DEAD, AND BEHOLD I AM ALIVE FOR EVER AND EVER! AND I HOLD THE KEYS OF DEATH AND HADES. ok the him is John and he was dead or in other words, in a cryochamber and now unthawed and living again! and I dont know about the holding the keys of deatch and Hades. it then starts to talk about the sever stars (the seven Halos) and other things having to do with seven so maybe one of the Bungie Staff workers is a Christian and thats why they put seven in the game so much. ALSO you know the Ark, well the Ark is in the bible as well! When Noah built the Ark, and what did the Ark in Halo protect them from? THE FLOOD! just like in the bible!!!! so whether you belive my friend or not i think thats where Bungie got their storyline from, THE BIBLE!
PLEASE NOTE: I DID NOT FIGURE THIS OUT, I JUST POSTED IT FOR MY FRIEND!

I would just like to ask, if anybody has even taken into consideration that perhaps it isn't Master Chief in the trailer? I don't know if anyone else read the IGN article saying that Master Chief is only ONE of TWO spartans left. Furthermore, isn't Master Chief still on the Capitol ship that he rode in on? I know this may be way out there but it's still food for thought and I wouldn't put it passed Bungie to pull a quick one like that. Even moreover, I would also like to point out that I haven't seen where Bungie officially reffered to the spartan as THE Master Chief, the origional, I've only read them reffering to the Spartan as the Chief. So food for though everybody.

BTW here is the link to the IGN article http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/707/707241p1.html

Oh yeah and one more thing, in case anybody didn't quite know, I would easily assume that the ginormous structure is the arc, I mean the arc is reffered to in Halo 2 as the remote detination device used to detinate all the Halo that are out there at one I believe. The Oracle in the end of the game states this. So yeah, I'm 100% sure that the ginormous structure is the Arch that the Oracle was talking about at the end up Halo 2.

the other sparten is probally Kelly. The sniper that went with the docter at the end of Halo: First Strike. And bungie has stated that that is MC.

Of coruse they can think of more ideas that are better. Thats what there paid to do. But sometimes those cool ideas get dropped. Thats why it is always good to speak out because they might think about it again. Bungie may not do what it's fans want on the forums, but they do listen. Thats all us folks want to. Is to be heard. Besides, who knows, maybe they might think of there own idea by looking at something the fans wrote.

Just because you don't have anything to bring to the table does not mean no one else can either.

I noticed that when the Banshees flew by, they did not even turn to get a better view of the chief. Could that mean that they are allied? Or they are just obsessed with the dome thingy?
And where are the brutes in this?

I personally think that it is all a simulation.

I think Cortana is showing Master Chef that if he does not do what cortana needs him to do, this is what will happen. That would explain a lot about the banshees.
I bet MC doubted Cortana's sanity, and thats why cortana reminded him what she has done for him.

Thats what i think this thing is all about.

ALRIGHT! I just have the smoking gun to prove once and for all, that MC has new Armor.
http://www.bungie.net/SlideShow.aspx?path=/games/Halo2&sl ideshow=Screenshots&slide=40
Look at MC's hand in this picture. Its a flat box of armor over the top part of his hand.
http://www.bungie.net/Games/Halo3/SlideShow.aspx?Path=/games/ Halo3&Slideshow=Screenshots&Slide=0
Now look at his hand now. You can also see the diffrence in the movie clip. As one can see, the hand has an extra plate of protection. One can also notice the less noticble diffrences between the two sets of armor as well. (Like the Helmet) Thus, MC has new armor.

By the way, why has'nt any mod or Bungie rep posted in this thread yet? You would think they would say something for the first week of the halo 3 updates.

The mech might have never existed, because Halo is supposed to be our future of combat, and giant mechs are just to improbable for our species to make where we are going. And the other species in Halo seem to be involved with flying and hovering. I doubt you will ever see this giant mach.

How many levels are in Halo 3?

  • 05.13.2006 7:14 PM PDT

Kzhack! woot woot teabag time!

Doubt my question will ever be answered or maybe it already has been, but is there going to be a new rank system for Halo 3? I'm thinking that the rank system should extend to level 60 or higher to add in some new graphics for Halo icons. I guess doing such would allow the bridgers and standbyers chances to get even higher than their fake Halo's. I was thiking there also should be a change which allows a players vote to boot players. That way idle players in matchmaking could be booted with a team agreement or delevelers, I know this would cause problems with a party of 3 going in and getting matched with 1 random person who they decide to boot because the 3 of them are delevelers themselves. Or maybe an autoboot system for the delevelers, I donno I'm hoping for too much. I guess my hopes shoudl be that your game is soo good that noone wants to cheat because they are admiring its cool gameplay.
