If the developers aren't experimenting with new engines will we get the same old halo 2 crap? We may see the return of some CE weapns, but what about vehicles? Sure, we may see co-op, but what about TOD and weather effects? How can Bungie improve on the number one console online gaming battlefield in the world? Will Cheating be extinct? Will the pros plat again? Will auto aim be toned down?

Isn't that basically what a sequel is?

What do you expect? A fishing game?

  • 05.18.2006 2:08 PM PDT

We are the Halo Generation.

A fishing game with killer graphics!

They are using a completely new engine. And i think H2 was a tweener game, priming us for what I think will be the best game ever released. It will be better. Just be patient

Would you rather wait till July 2007 instead of the first quarter?

Halo 2 was made in ten months. Halo three has been in works since they finished halo 2. Thats a year and a half already, it should be better. There is going to be new gameplay elements obviosly.

Well, since they have worked on this game for so long, then I expect that this game is longer than the previosly Halo games, and much more variated levels (again).
Better multiplayer levels and (something that I've said before) custom soundtrack on Multiplayer...that would just be a masterpiece!

Thats is the difference in years it came out. Bungie started working on thier game ten months before the release. Ask anyone here.

That's someone's opinion. It could be easily made up.

Lmao, 10 months. That's the stupidest thing ever. Sure, someone told you that. Wow, believe everything. I've been here since before Halo 2 was announced. Lemme tell you something, it didn't take 10 months. Obviously, you've never seen the announcement trailer. Oh wait a second, that didn't come out two years before Halo 2 or anything. And have you seen the detail of desing in the trailer? Its because they had been working for months on it. Halo 2 took forever. Just because you odn't like it doesn't mean it sucks. If it were just any old game, let's call it "Shoot People" you would think its amazing. But since it has the same name as Halo, you get made because it didn't have the pistol. OH WAIT! Now you're complaining because you think Halo 3 is going to be the same 'crap' as Halo 2. But you wanted Halo 2 to be the same as Halo 1. Don't you understand ou have no logic at all?! Halo 2 is the most played xbox live game ever, on both systems, and you still complain. Guess what! Bungie doesn't care if oyu like to whore the pistol or use mods. Stop complaining that Halo 3 is going to be the same game. A-it isn't. And B-you can't even tell. They put out one short video with nothing in it. No gameply, no new features. NOTHING! Stop saying that its going to suck or that its the same or whatever. You don't know anything about it.

EDIT:THIS IS TO ANYONE WHO SAYS THAT, I WAS JUST RANTING.

i voted for "we want more answers" with the mindset that that statement is directed towards frankie and regards the weekly whats update... and its friday and I drove 50 minutes from my house to my apartment on campus just to get online to check for the weekly whats update and there isnt even one. i know it will probably be there later but i dont wanna sit around all day just to read some bland generic update like "yeah theres an easter egg in the trailer" thanks its visible to the naked eye... I wanna know some facts and something interesting.i dont even care about the story i want multiplayer info... like maybe a couple screen shots of a new map or something. maybe some weapons info. AR (or a slight variation) is back we know that already WE WANT MORE ANSWERS!!!!!

I'm pretty sure they have a new graphics engine in place for this version.

Bungie did and didn't start working on Halo 2 10 months before release. They re-started 10 months before release. Seriously people, watch the limited edition Halo 2 DVD.

*walks away feeling smart knowing he isn't*

All those who believe in psychokinesis, raise my hand.

Is Halo 2 just Halo 1 but with a new story and better graphics?

Nope. Gameplay got a kick in the balls too.

Whoever said yes is a tard... Halo 1 to Halo 2 was one of the biggest leaps in gaming history. Halo 3 will include more than just better graphics. It will be a new game practically. It will have so much more.

I've been here since before Halo 2 was announced.


Really, you have? If that's true then why does your avatar say you've only been a member for 2 days? Yea that sure is a looooong time isn't it?

Down, down to hell and say that I sent you there...

I came into the world with my legs forward and a woman cried "he was born with teeth!"

"I had no father I am like my father...I had no brother I am like my brother...And this word, "love" which old farts call divine be resident in men like you -blam!-. But not in me, I am my mother-blam!- self, alone."

You Are an Idiot

I've been around since the forums were revamped.

And the reason Halo 2 took so long was they were rebuilding the game engine. Work truly began on Halo 2 ten months before it was released. The rest of the time was the game engine being coded and prepped.
