I must say, this is the best Update for a Humpday challenge yet. The revealations of such things including "being able to Knock out the Sniper Scope from Long or Mid Range with the Assault Rifle" and the part where "The game moved back out to the open" sends shivers up my spine. Reminds me of some "Classic" Halo, which I felt seperated "Halo" from other FPS's. Infact, that is what made "Halo" what it is in my opinion!
KP, does this mean the new "Assault Rifle" will function more like Bungie Intended it to in Halo CE: ? I know the AR was supposed to be more of a Mid range weapon (As an Assault Rifle should be BTW) as you can tell from Early Builds of Halo, IE: Halo at E3 2000 Announcement.
Just remember a Bungie quote,....... "you can Have all the weapons, the story, and all the graphics and all the whoodahodda(I added that) but it means nothing Unless you have the gameplay, Halo focused on 30 seconds of Fun at a time, then turning that 30 seconds of fun into a game and spread it out over 10 levels is the key to a very successfull game"!
It's NOT an exact quote, I don't have the energy to whatch the interview on the special edition cd right now, but i will quote it exactly if you want, I will watch it again. I hope Bungie is Building off the First Halo game rather than the second, cause we all know, that 30 seconds of fun spread out through the game made Halo!
Remember, Halo CE: did NOT have "Coat Tails" to fly on, only the well know developers at Bungie to put the game to Console. I hope Halo 3 has NO "Coat Tails" to fly on and truly emerses as a "Great" video game. That would be a game that makes your fans happy for years to come, such as Halo CE: has become, almost 5 years, not a single update, and it is still largely played! And we as fans, 5 years down the road can't express what this game means to us. I don't know of any Game still played so Much so far after Launch as the Original Halo : Combat Evolved!
We don't care about the graphics, if they are better or worse than "GOW" or any other 360 Title at all. Just please Bungie, give us that "Game Play" or "Feel" back. we miss it dearly!
"That 30 seconds of fun spread out in the story" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A true Fan of Halo from the start.
Thank you for a very revealant update. We appreciate your efforts to keep us satisfied, and I enjoy the wild goose chases your sending these "Photoshoppers" on, I find it amusing and at the same time, quite stupid. You "Photoshoppers" make me laugh. When Bungie confirms the Map, you can laugh at mer , but for now, I'm laughing at you!
