The Sentinel Beam isn't excluded from Matchmaking due to any performance concerns. It's excluded because it's ridiculous. It may as well be firing super-accelerated clowns. - Shishka

I'm still not so sure Noguchis Rage is for everyone, he may just not like Frankie.

don't take me too seriously..

Frankie keeps describing the awesome graphics, but I want to see it for myself.

I'd like to see some screenshots of that water. Nothing too big, maybe just a close up to see how it is ;)

OMG

cant wait for this
i loved the combat dialog in halo 2 so i cant wait to hear it in halo 3

i only have one hope for halo 3 and thats less one liners from master chief (i can stand them, but in halo 3 he should be more serious because hes defending earth) and i hope he is more like he was in halo:ce and that the guy who has no idea of the larger plan. i was thinking like at the start of two betrals when he has no idea what halo does but he gets the index because he is practically told to with out askin questions until cortana tells him to.

After read that over it seems like im havin a go at halo2, im just think that master chief should do less one liners.

Cant wait for halo 3 its gonna be the only game i play for like a year if not 2 ?

Well Enough Alone...

~"The people who play Bungie games tend to sense that there's something behind the games that's attractive to them. Then they become fans of the games. And then they become rabid fans. And then they become employees of Bungie."(Life story) -Marty

I would love to hear a poem about dust particles in a light beam. No, seriosly! I would! And that was not 3 words. More like 5 or 6. And what is the new vehicle? The new character their making dialauge for? The new mp dialauge and the wais to get the easter eggs? It answers a lot of questions but creates even more...as alwais. Great news as alwais!!!

Ahhh...Nice title Franky. I like the reference to Franklin D. Roosevelt.(you know what I mean if you know 8th grade history)

Can I say for the rest of the community. "OMFG did all you guys hear that....HE SAID NEW VEHICLE! He didn't say whats its called...lets start the rumers!!!"

That is the best update to date, because I am really happy to hear how the new 3d models are being implamated. I am a 3d artist, and this type of stuff if always fun to hear. I cannot even explain how bad I wish to see how the real 3d details will effect the lighting of the game.

All I am saying is keep up the great work on this game and take your time. "All great things come in time"...or something like that.?.

If you frag a Grunt, does anybody care?

I wanna touch the fence! Me me me!!!!! Did somebody say "control new vehicle"? Can I drive it too? I won't crash it, I promise! Love the update Frankie! I CANNOT wait! And just as Halo 2 was the only reason I bought an Xbox, Halo 3 is the only reason I'm buying an Xbox 360.

What? The update just got up? How could you two have read it already? You liars!!


They use a placeholder. You respond as fast as you can, and then edit the post later.. its pretty pitiful if you ask me.

But anyways, this was probably one of the best updates I remember in a while.. no offense, but its actually stuff I care about :D


You're just jealous that you weren't one of us cool kids who posted first.

  • 01.19.2007 6:27 PM PDT

Wow, Bungie it looks like your're going all out with this one and the information I just read is awesome news. I can't wait to see how the game turns out graphically and gameplay wise, I'm even more hyped now than ever. Keep on doing what you do best.

I agree. It's been a loong time since a H2V update and i would like to hear some more about it. Reading non-pictured articles about Halo 3 is starting to get boring.

Hey baby, its all Kool and the Gang.

I can’t decide if the new blowing sand on one of the later levels is an atmospheric effect or not. Would be cool if our snow did something similar, huh…?

Please, please, please do that. How sick nasty would that be?! Imagine walking across a barren ice field coated in drifts of snow. All of a sudden, a gust of wind picks up and blows a torrent of white powder across the player's vision, possibly frosting the edges of the screen as it sticks. If that's not an atmospheric technique, I don't know what is.

Amazing job on Ghosts of Onyx! It did something different to me and i have this whole new respect and sadness towards Halo now. Vary touching... and also... BAD ASS!

ok know this guy has an idea well i dont think the snow hitting the screen is the best idea but whatever everything else is great you do that !!! and take your time doing the game i expect much from it and i dont want to be dissapointed !! nice update

I hope the halo 1 voices return, or just how they're said for double kill , triple kill , killing spree , and running riot

un-freakin-believable was good, and the other ones, but like running riot riot and killing spree for halo 2 didn't impress me. but halo 3 is going to be she shiznit, especially multiplayer, nice update

WHERE'S THE DAMN HALO 2 VISTA??? j/k
