Special Q&A Today!
For this week's update, Frankie and I are going to take questions from the field and answer them online in a psuedo real-time chat format using the Bungie.net forums. Things are bound to get a little hectic but we think it will be fun.
The first thing we need people to do is ask questions! You can do that in the news forum - easily accessible by clicking the "discuss this story" link at the bottom of this page.
Before you ask your questions, keep these points in mind:
1. NO QUESTIONS ABOUT CAMPAIGN or the STORY! (we won't even acknowledge these questions)
2. Don't spam and ruin this for everyone. We'll be banning people.
3. Questions about life inside Bungie, the final crunch, Alta's haircut, the Beta, etc.. are all fair game.
[b]At approx. 2:00 PM PDT Frankie and I will login to the New Mombasa forum and start answering questions that have been posted to this thread.[/b]
We'll hang out for an hour or so and have some fun. =)
Ok, now get to the news forum and post your question for the weekly update!

I've noticed that the only variations of the warthog discussed recently have been the standard and rocket varieties. I remember early in the development of the game there was talk of a transport hog, snow hog, jungle hog, and ATV. Will those be included, or have they been scrapped?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Tartarus [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Halifax Probably been asked but, you said that you would have something fun for people who don't have live. What is it or at least give us a hint as to wlhat it is.[/quote] Frankie and Sketch, I'll take this one for you. I think I know the answer... Halifax, the fun thing that H2 will have for people if they don't have Live is... wait for it... SINGLE PLAYER CAMPAIGN MODE![/quote] Umm. Thats kinda the point of them making the game is for the story to keep on going. I was talking more along the lines of multiplayer since that has a lot more in common with xbox live.
-
Can you have just one player play in Multiplayer offline. So he could just fool around in the Multiplayer maps? That would be cool.
-
1. Can you dual-weild a weapon and a flag? heh that'd be cool 2. Can you throw me in a "special thanks" shout out on the credits for the game or the instruction booklet?? :)
-
When you destroy a piece of environment in the game, does it stay destroyed until the end of the game or respawn? How long do bullet holes stay in the level before they disapear? will they disapear? Thank you Bungie
-
Evil Vole Says: 4) How much different is the PS2 version from the Nintendo version? What PS2 and GameCube version o.O The game is Xbox only and POSSIBLY PC SOMETIME in the distant future....
-
Im just keeping mine plain and simple. Will the Shadow be used in Multiplayer? It's the Covenant counterpart to the Human Warthog (if i got the name wrong) thanks.
-
What language is Halo 2 programmed in?
-
will the frame rate still be limited to 30fps?? like halo ce Will there be ATV's (heard it mention in The Rumour BUster!)??? thx
-
Hi SketchFactor and Frankie ;) I have 2 questions: 1) Is Plasma Rifle and Plasma Pistol still freezing the oponent like in Halo1? 2) Will maps like Damnation, HeH, Battle Creek or Wizard return in Halo1?
-
exactly how much will i ownzor with m4 m@d 1337 sk1llz?
-
Yah guys, wat part of dont spam didnt u guys get?
-
[b][u]The Covenant Transport Bus:[/u][/b] Will the Covenant bus shown in the E3 2003 demo be useable in multiplayer - or for that fact - even make it into the final cut of the game (link to a bungie concept image below)? http://bungie.net/images/Games/Halo2/Gallery/Concept/h2_concept_covbus3 .jpg Thanks, Blade
-
I just have one question. It may have already been answered too... but here goes nothing. [b]Do you use any type of influence for tha art in the games? If so, what?[/b] *hides away in her little spot hoping the question doesn't sound stupid.*
-
If it's not too late could you guys make it so that we could mess around in the multiplayer maps on one full screen (not split screen)? I like to just mess around on the multiplayer maps sometimes and having a full screen would make it even better.
-
In Halo 2 multi-player will the announcer voice be changed? I don't think it should, and you need to keep 'Killtakular.' In the free 20 minute MLG pro video there was new announcer voice signalling '10 seconds remaining' sounded a bit crap.
-
can i have a free tee shirt :) pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez thats my question
-
Will there be any more human vehiclese besides the warthog and the scorpion in the multiplayer? If so, will there be a human equivelent of the banshee?
-
1) Will there be campaign 2-player co-op via system link? 2) How many hours/levels/chapters will the single-player campaign be? 3) Do you guys at bungie goof off all day at work like me? 4) How much different is the PS2 version from the Nintendo version? 5) How many gerbils is too many?
-
One more question... hope you guys see it, among all these posts... - Have you thought about including a sort of Destruction Derby game for multiplayer? because that would be damn awesome. Half the fun in Halo 1 was driving around in the warthog trying to see how hard I could flip another vehicle.... sometimes awarding points for number of flips, spins, height, etc. The driving system in Halo 1 was so great, you guys could've made a Halo Kart 64 game and I would've purchased it immediately and played it for months. so... yep. warthog Destruction Derby would be damn awesome. please think about it if it's not too late [b]:[/b]]
-
yeah, i was hoping for somthing like in f-zero GX where there was a little icon maker. will you be able to make your own icons or are they pre-made?
-
Sorry for all the questions but i just can't help it. 1.Do the grenades throw the same distance? 2.Is there any other vehicles yet to be revealed? 3.Are the maps:Bloodgulch, Prisoner, Chillout and Hang Em High definately confirmed for halo 2? Thanks Bungie, for your patience and answers.

Yah there is, In the story b4 the major update it said that it was 2 much 4 the system 2 handle.
-
I have 2 questions. What are your plans for realeasing the game to pc and Mac owners? What kind of downloadable content are you going to realease
-
Why didt you guys add in a map editor so we can make or own maps for the community to play ? Why didt you guys add in more players on like battle front and battle feild modern combat (24 players). Why did you guys not take the concert of playing as the eliete all the way (new controls, new abilites, energy shelid) insted of just adding in a skin.
