Ya I was wondering that too.............
Maybe you can pick up soldiers or something like that. Like the soldiers are riding MC, MC being the pickle?
I dont know just a theory.

Christ, there are alot of things going on in HALO 2, it may cause me to have a mental overload, I don't care, six more months, just means more goodies for us. The first halo took 10 hours the new one should be 30. Good LAAAAAWD.

Humans: Chief, Sarge, Marines and ODST
Covenant: Elite, Brute, Hunter, Grunt, Jackel, Engineer, Prophet, New Guy
Flood: Carrier ans spores. and a battle form for every sorry arse loser who aint the Chief
Guilty Spark, Gaurdians
and who knows what else.

Vehicles Galore
Weapons out the BooTAAAY

Man there is NO GAME that can even act like it want some of this HOT FLAMING HALO LOVE. RIDE THAT PICKLE TRIIIIIICKS!!!!!

-OH, sorry I giddy-
Yes Demon's do laugh (specially at lost souls)

I think he is referring to the trailer from last year, when Chief jumped out the ship. It will probably be the opening movie of the game, but they will extend it. You will see Chief land on the ship below him (the Pickle) and then you will see chief, bust a little bit of the good ole Covie, bootay and then the game will begin.

YES LAAAAWDDD!

"Ride the pickle"... my first thought referred to the chief plummeting towards earth. It was in the announcement trailer after all, and he was talking about putting those scenes into context. Perhaps is a playable sequence?

EDIT: Too fast for me DarkSide!

Also anybody else wonder who some of the actors/actresses are? He said very talented people, most of which are halo fans. Could be a longshot but wouldn't it be cool if some famous actors were in the game? I know Julia Roberts is a huge halo fan.

"might let us do some cool in-game slow-mo features"
It would be kind of cool if they put something in where, after you die (while you're waiting for respawn with more than a few second) the showed a slo-mo replay of your death. On those stupid respawn growth games, there will be nothing better than watching the last few seconds of your life in slo-mo, over and over again. Better than sitting there looking at your dead body get humped. Would also create some fun for others who are not involved in a fight to laugh at your death.
Anyway, can't wait to see the guns...and the covies...and the vehicles...and my limited edition game that I will get on Novemeber 9.

all this talk about the trailer makes me wanna watch it again....in a sec....anyways, this weeks update was a pretty juicey one. it doesn't really seem like it at first but if you think about it they released some pretty good things to think aobut and dream about. thats what i love about bungie, they don't usually tell you striaght up whats going on, you usually have to figure it out for your self. and its a pretty good tactic becuase it makes you imagin just what the real game will have in it. i can't wait. 171 days!

WOW !!!! i have to say that was one of the more exciting updates thus far. almost every paragraph eluded to something NEW and SECRET. that just tickles me in the Naughty zone to know that we can expect to be surprised by things. i was so surprised with the flood the first time around. one of my all time favorite gaming moments

just a random thought , when he said ride the pickle for some reason i got some weird memories of that scene in Dr. Strangelove when the dude rides on top of the A-bomb to earth. me and my friend were watching it one day and actually said it looks like a pickle. maybe you ride the convenant battle cruiser all the way to the ground. awesome,.

Caboose voice: " 'Ride the pickle' What's that mean?"

Well, you heard the man. I think it's some kind of new vehicle. Anyone know what people call a pickle that's not really a pickle? (not the "Naughty Zone")

I can't wait to use the Brutes weapon.
