Hey you jerk. I wasn't even playing in half those games... I was working / not paying attention. And that first game I joined when you already had 15 points. No fair. I demand a rematch!


Then you can post another mosiacified picture so we can post random speculations and fragment the pixels to get an unclear understanding of what the map looks like :P

lol!

damn, it looks kinda like Zanzibar...
posible but they added fuision picture sharpened

Mabye they snapped a pictre of an extremely ugly rug and are laughing as you try and figure it out...there was nothing of any importance in the h3 trailer, theres nothing here, and there wont be any untill the day before its released and someone hacks into the computers at bungie and gets a french version of it....or w/e the heck happened with h2. I left bungie.net for like 2 months, came back, and theres nothing. Now I'm going to atempt to focus my boredness on a different website and leave for another long time. And you know what? It'll still be the same amount of info....

Here is what I could do with it. It's still blurry, but more sharpened. So far I haven't seen any like this yet.

Is it me, or does that map look like Coagulation?

I was thinking that aswell, you can see a brownish area and then what looks like a base, but there appears to be an extension, involving 1 or 2 smaller buildings to the left

Oh wow, so XBL did go offline for a while there... I was wondering why my armored horse vanished from Oblivion. Now I know why!

Which is funny... because you'd expect that content that you download would actually be completely in your H-drive... and would not need an internet connection to load properly.

Sounds like some pretty sweet KP pwnage though.

Why would you even post this story? We all know they can't and won't show anything extensive about halo 3 right now. And yes that is bloodgulch it's just in water colors. So i'm laughing at all who are trying to analyze the pics.

mebe...you antagonistic punk you..... not to mention the lack of common sense... they were simply joking... but just a thought... you know... they happen to other people.... thoughts....

Lol, In case people forget to read, they said its on Earth. btw, My guess is Sandwinder

oh and has anyone figured out that the Battle Rifle wont be in Halo 3 yet? Ever wonder why they have mentioned alot of other weapons, Shotgun, assault rifle, carbine etc, but they havent mentioned Battle rifle yet? Thats because it wont be in Halo 3, and niether will the pistol from Halo 1. Know why?

Remember how the H3 AR is "different" to the Halo 1 one? Ever wonder why KP picked a scatter gun, AKA shotgun, and the AR, which everything thinks has a massive spread? Wouldn't people go for an ACCURATE weapon and a shotgun, rather than 2 mid range weapons?

thats because:

The AR is able to change fire modes, from an accurate single shot to less accurate machine gun styled continuous fire mode. Thus they wont be putting the Battle Rifle OR the Halo 1 pistol in, those would seem redundant. THAT is why KP chose to use a shotgun and the AR.

and maybe it shoots grenades too, who knows?

Now the AR is accurate and acts as 2 weapons! ^_^

ok so wheres my cookies?

I think this is a remake set on earth with the covinent trying to take over and its one of there bases based off of the second level on HALO CE where theres huge cliffs and theres a waterfall on one side and on the left you see the entrance witch goes down like 2 or 3 stories and on the right is a canyon that shoots straight down into a canyon area with a waterfall what do you think?

Wow good to see people just having fun with a humpday event. Nice to see the map is open to a number of different game play styles as I know many of my friends at our lans are not quite "mastered" in every game play element so seeing a nice mutli facetted map that gives close and long players potential should spice things up. .... Even if i will still rush to the br or it's equivilent

Yeah, really nice read. I don't think it's a returning map, because it seems to be pretty small. I'm looking forward to more information!

Do you think you can handle my gigantic COC?
~!TheHalo3D!~
-If your car could travel at the speed of light, would your headlights work?
-What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
-I intend to live forever; so far, so good.

Yay they actually finally showed an Ub3r low res image of a map :P Kinda looks like coag but it's all black in the middle... OMG can't wait..for...EMG...Halo 3 Blowout *Head explodes!* The info is going to be covered soon right? and on B.Net?

Quick, someone with 1337 photoshop skillz, reverse-mosaic the image!


Exactly what I was thinking!


OMG Exactly exactly what I was thinking!

Hey BTW, Before I make a triple post, I wanted to suggest that that looks like the conceptive stage of Burial Mounds that was supposed to be in the final product but never got put in...

Halo's a hell of a drug.

Oh too bad for you Frankie. I have a photoediting program that can undone the stained glass effect. Now I will know what the maps mean. yeeeeeesss!

If only everyone were as skilled as you, we wouldn’t need to dedicate so many resources as we do to stopping cheaters. Players that can sense when their opponent is reaching for the standby button and can then kill them to dust is the wave of the future.

I dont think thats its a returning map.

I believe that everyone has seen it before thats why it looks so familiar is because they showed us about where this map is going to take place way before the this update came out.


It would make perfect sense.

* its on Earth

* It would be a place with lots of dirt or even sand (giving it that brown color)

* It would have water as well as plants and trees ( possibly In the form of a Oasis )

* It would also explain the rib and base looking structures in the picture.


If you still dont know where Im talking about visit these links

These would be the rib like structures in the picture and and a whole one could be the building ( it got blown in half one side completely destroyed and the other still together enough to act as a base)

This would be the wide open areas that was mentioned in the update and can be seen in the picture ( kinda seen in the picture XP )

Bah..signatures are for the weak.........

I can post photos and screens, but for in-game shots, I'll need some chili. Lots of chili... That's dangerous work and needs a top quality agent(me) to do the job. But, like I said, I need lots of chili if I'm going to get those in-game shots.
