I thought this was the new halo 2 maps at first till i saw assault rifle in there and read about the pictures...still some good ideas for halo 3 and they still gota a year to go till its launch, these are probably not what that graphics are guna b like when its released so no worries.

They haven't mention quite a few weapons, so don't worry. Just have patience that Bungie will unveil details when they are ready. Also on a side note...if you are going to post a comment here please read previous entries first otherwise you will probably make a comment on something that other people have commented on several times. I read that someone commented on the bladed hand gun like weapon in one of the screenshots...if you had read the commentary on the screenshots you would have read that, that particular weapon is a new Brute weapon, meaning it's used and or made for the Brutes.

Shut up nerds!

If there's one thing I have learned in working with you, it's that there is always margin for error.
- RvB, Simmons to Griff.

(SPOILER WARNING... unless you pay attention to 1up)

well, in 1up's podcast they say that Highground is now upgrades with a lot more weapons including the sword, rocket launcher and an overhauled needler which is no longer dual wieldable, more powerful and (at the moment) shoots more like a rifle. I would expect bungie to talk about the weapons more closer to the time that the beta comes out.

Also, if you have been paying attention, the new Brute weapon is called a Spiker Rifle.

Halo 3 WILL rock, I didn't think these looked very special, but when u actually look closely the detail is immense. Also like someone said earlier, the halo 2 initial screens didn't look so rosy. Plus with the millions of people demanding more info (me included) you can't help but not be surprised when they give u obviously incomplete screens of an incomplete game. Thats just life. try and be more patient.

You say goodbye, and I say good riddance.

Join Arm the Flag. A great community headed for even more greatness.

I would just like to say, incredible shots people. One thing though, I saw absolutely no secondary colors on any of the spartans. And niether did I see any elites. I trust this will change eventually, but I must say that one of the things that made multiplayer on Halo 2 so engrossing was the ability to make a total and complete replica of the coolest badass around, and be able to say, thats MY spartan. So please make even more custom options for spartans and elites this time around boyz. Over and out.

I believe somebody else mentioned it near the begining of this disscusion.Unless that was you,you've come in second place.No offense.

What I saw almost first glance was an easter egg stuck in by you sneeks. In the first screenshot, If you look at the wheel far back of the warthot it reads "Puma Storm" or something close but it does say Puma. A reference to Red Vs Blue if anyone wants to know. so its Puma something, and the numbers 1987 wich i do not get. anyway cool.


why'd you say it twice?(sorry for double posting)

-=GOD IS THE GREATEST=-

Even if this is pre-alpha I think the overall look of the game is down to the fact that this is a game being developed using a last -generation engine. I dunno, I'm praying to God that the graphics get a major overhaul, and when I say major, I mean MAJOR. This is the benchmark title for the 360- it should represent what the 360 is capable of fully- and push the machine to its limits. RIght now it doesn't seem to be anywhere near that limit but I guess like a lot of people have said...it's early days.

  • 11.24.2006 2:58 PM PDT

l

game looks awsome i cant w8 2 play might get 360 4 christmas thogh

Bungie said that they're using a new game engine.Look at the campaine picture.That looks phenomanal.And it's still in the works.Lay the -blam!- off bungie.They already said that half the -blam!- you see is placeholder.Reused stuff from halo 2 and the whatnot.

first off the maps look good, however the turret fire in the first screen shot needs to be refined it looks like somthing from playstation one or the origonal nintendo,

It sounds like their will be atlest 3 types of granades and you can hold two of each, how about just being able to hold 6 of any combonation, you could pick them up like weapons hold down the x button, or toggle it and just pick up what ever.

im not sure how the wepon holding is going to work, probably same as halo 2, but i think you should have an option to drop one wepon for a buddy that is out or has crap wepons, rather than having to look for another wepon to swap it with, so you can cycle wepons between a well orgonised team. Perhaps that idea could be implemented on the last idea, hold a total of 6 granaeds if you dont want one place it down with out it going off so you can pick up another, however you should be able to cycle through the other graned types not just toss the one that you have on hand, or you could toggle between my ideas and bungies standard set up.

what are your ideas on this

I wonder if Halo 3 will have any cool special features, like, I don't know. Play as Spartans on Reach, maybe? THAT would be friggin' awesome.
