Halo 3 Humpday
The second proper Halo 3 Humpday Challenge. This time we played on the same maps featured in the next issue of EGM, so you can probably cross reference all these antics, weapons and maps with real screenshots next week.
-
I've been hearing that the Halo Movie has been cancelled! Is this true or another lie from the media? Can you talk about this in the next post.
-
Awesome. I want to see those screenies.
-
damn you bungie and your oh so sweet tastelets of the Halo 3 awsomeness.... i think i would die if it wasnt for the sheer anticipation of the impending greatness that halo 3 will bring... i just hope i dont have to be a noob again....
-
wow.. this sucks... halo 3 is gonna have the same weapon balance as halo 2... thats what im assuming about rocket whoring.... how retarted is that ppl... i mean come on... thats what made halo 1 so good, if someone had a rocket launcher, the map had another respawn.. there wasnt a "certain amount" meaning that if one person had it, he had to die for another one to respawn... retarted... make the weapon spawn like halo 1's.... or h3 is gonna suck.
-
awesome can't wait for the screen shots.
-
Heaven all right, only to the Vikings...
-

-

To be completely honest, Frank made that edit to the piece and I didn't remove it... but I think he's wrong. I don't feel that stickies are any more conductive than they were in H2. I think he's just not used to playing with me. It's literally the only thing that I'm good at in H2. [url=http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStats.aspx?gameID=593816499&player=KP]Case in point[/url]. 59 stickies in an hour and a quarter long game is hardly my best effort, but it's pretty routine. I'm good at sticking and maybe Frankie's not used to that, I haven't noticed anyone else getting any abnormally high stick counts, but he may well be right. I dunno, I'll ask around tomorrow and get an answer.

'elevated terrain' ~ High Ground? 'heavenly' ~ Valhalla? Anyway, did anyone say screenshots? SCREENSHOTS?!?! These are even just the first three maps of multiplayer, and they are already very varied in settings.... Asskickery. [Edited on 11/2/2006]

The second picture is totally Ascension/Halo 3 Ascension~
-
Interesting that the BR made it into Halo 3... somewhere in some country, a HUGE group of continuity-fanboiis have just been appeased. Can't wait until you guys can actually show us the screens!
-
New screenshots next week...........

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Achronos Minus 12, huh? I guess that's what happens when one experiments with interactions between various things and the Man Cannon. I still need to see if I can get a wraith up there though. [/quote] Omg new info, the wraith is in halo 3 :D
-
Damnit Bungie!!! Why must you taunt us with these Halo 3 humpdays!? I need to play Halo 3, I need to play it NOW!
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Morph_Ball The second picture is totally Ascension/Halo 3 Ascension~[/quote] ok, except its totally not. he said its snowy smart guy [Edited on 11/3/2006]

Never seen such proficient use of the word "whore"
-
Why must you tease us like pack mules being led by a carrot and string, bungie?! Well, the best I can do is ride the hype machine and preorder the Legendary Edition of Halo 3. Maybe those that have preordered Legendary would get a demo disc in the mail by Christmas (hint, hint) since I've been a good, patient man waiting for this game. Keep up the good work and looking forward to getting that carrot! :o)
-
Does this mean that the screen shots are coming this week, as in today, friday? Or next week as in a week from today friday?

You can whore weapons and power ups in Halo 1. I got called an invisibility whore on Hang Em' High all the time. If Frank keeps getting the spawning rockets or gets them a majority of the time he is whoring them. We just have to wait to see if EGM states what it currently is.
-
They played on Frost Bite and Bloodgulch
-
I am glad to here him say rocket launcher.. I was conserned of them replaceing it with that other anti vehical weopen
-
omg i cant wait i know ill create a time rift and get my copy when its done and come back to our time and play till everyone else gets it now ill need a...........

The first two maps look, to me, like the overhead view of Sanctuary (though I doubt it is, as there are substantial differences after your first glance) and Ascension (which would actually make a lot of sense when you look at and think about the descriptions). I don't know on either of those for sure. However, I'm willing to bet the last one is the remake of Blood Gulch/Coagulation. Seriously, just read what they had to say, and look at the picture. The picture looks like it's taken from the left side (vehicle spawn side) of Blue Base on Coag, looking to the middle of the map. I'm sure it's what it is, only with new areas and designs (is that a waterfall I see?).

You gotta love assualt rifle starts on big maps, thats my favourite way to balance my gametypes.
