I bet, absolutely bet, that the "Mystery Weapon" is a Covie version of a Splazer. Bet.

-
Friggin' sweet update!!! great audio and good answers! and finally air warthog similar to pelican!!!!! just like halo 3 and odst I'm dedicating a whole party to this when it comes out! make the game as awesome as it looks guys!!!
-
Ok...I have to say the concussive sounds with the weapons...A fawking plus. I came rainbows when I heard the SFX for the Sniper Rifle. Mah baby now sounds like she can rip off your head and -blam!- down your throat (Yes...I'm a sniper.)
-
I may have a clue on what that mystery sound weapon is. It could be the grenade launcher looking weapon the E.V.A. Spartan Emile was holding in the concept art images. By the way it sounds, it projects 4 tubes of some sort of grenade and by looking at Emile's armor, he has a lot grenades attached to his armor and those might be used in the mystery weapon. He's probably a grenade specialist and that could be his main weapon. That's just what i think, or it could just be some sort of new attached turret for the warthog bruh.

The graphics on that first person screenshot are amazing!

Not sure if it was found out but my net is bad so going through waiting for pages to load up of replies is not my cup of tea at this time. My theory on the mystery weapon is sorta based on my experience to identify weapons. Being in the military i have a good sense of these things. The weapon sounds like some sort of missile system. Like the missle-pod i believe it is a lock on type with a 4 round shot that creates an explosive range that would take out 2 maybe 3 worthogs end to end when firing at the front end of the first hog. I could not tell you if the weapon is hand held or vehicle based but by the way it sounds ... it could be turret. This weapon if what i said here is correct would be the most powerful weapon short of the spartan lazer. Also the sniper sounded like it did not zoom out when reloading so does that mean we can reload without having to deal with re-zoom? [Edited on 01.29.2010 10:30 PM PST]

Um. Holy crap. What is that noise? Covenant mortar shells? Cant wait to get my hands on that! I have a love/hate relationship with the new AR. Just have to see how it feels in the BETA!
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Pronation The sound is amazing don't change a thing.[/quote] Sorry... but... I'm gonna have to agree
-
Those sounds sound awesome! But what is that last sound though??? Sounds like a charge up weapon almost like the spartan laser, yet it isn't the spartan laser. There are also a lot of explosions afterwards.
-
Thanks for the info.
-
just wondering how we r suppose to figure out which company each noble member belongs to by there birth dates seeing as the dates are so random and Kat and Carter dont even have similar barthdates and they were the original memebers??? o and wat does AOE mean???
-
Great update!! Can't wait for Reach!!!!
-
Reach looks ****ing beast! The sounds made it seem better but i didnt no there wuz a multiplayer, but then again, so has every other halo..... [b]GO HALO REACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/b]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Noskills117 hitscan = insta travel time = you aim cross over them, shoot, it always hit. i think[/quote]Oh! That would make sense since every time I would ever dare use a plasma pistol (or some other Covenant weapon) on somebody it doesn't connect from medium/long distance when my reticule is on them. Don't get me wrong here because I already knew some weapons didn't have hit scan, but I just didn't know they're was a name for something like that.
-
I was really surprised by the quality of the update! Great stuff here loved the weapon sounds and FAQ's.
-
hitscan = insta travel time = you aim cross over them, shoot, it always hit. i think
-
hit scan means the weapon hits your target as long as your cross hairs are on them(instant travel time)at least i think that's it.
-
Awesome, informative, entertaining. Everything I'd hope the update would be. As for the mystery weapon my guess is a covenant mortar system.
