Weekly Update Q&A Spectacular!
The latest Weekly Update consists of questions submitted by our readers and answers from Frankie and myself. For the next hour, we'll be going through the questions that were gathered in the news forum and answering what we can in this thread. Let the fun begin!
[i]This thread is now open to discussion. Post away![/i]
And, just because this isn't a normal weekly update doesn't mean there isn't a Mister Chief drawing. Here he is, straight from Frankie's laptop. (drawn with his touchpad)

Will there be Easter Eggs? aka Siedge of Madrigal Music.. or stuff like the Grunty Thirst?
-

This may already have been asked, but if there is no health bar are there still med packs? eg your running from their base with the flag, their all shooting at you just as you reach the crest of a hill your sheilds hit zero, a couple of guys with battle rifles put some rounds into you, you disapere from sight, enter your base and score, does this mean, when you sheilds are next downed can you take less punishment or can you get a health pack like in h1.
-
I don't understand. How do I use Xbox Live. Oh, sorry, I forgot to be threatning. Grrr. Raargh.
-
One single small question for some, and me... * What are you guys' Gamertags? If your to be playing on Live on th 9th, it'd be nice if we knew who to look for.
-
To the folks at bungie, It seems to me that you try to balance the covenant human weapons which would leave a blank next to the shade, have you put the andaconda in from the books and have you you put in a human version of the banshee thus leading to dogfights that i think would be awesome. But for my last and most important question NOV 9th is final right? You wont put it off again will you?
-
I could only think of one question that wasn't repetitive or generic and I know you guys are working your butts off over there so I'll make it quick: -What will the level of gore be in Halo 2? Will you be able to shoot arms, legs, heads, and/or various appendages off in a gritty rampage OR will it be a tastful arrangement of showering blood like in Halo 1? Thanks, and You Guys RULE!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Spartan_117 Bull****. Its not a direct port, and the graphics are still stunning. I don't know if you even have seen Xbox screenshots of Doom3. H2 is beeing pushed to the Xboxs hardware limiteds, but the game is running at least as good as Halo, according to Bungie. They are miracle workers, and exelent programmers, they can implement online and system link co-op if they wan't. Rainbow Six and Black Arrow supported online co-op as well. If they can do it, so can Bungie. If its not inside, then i would like to know from Bungie why i wasen't. I don't know why they are so damn secret about it. A yes or no would be just enough. [/quote] Ok, A) I never said it was a direct port, but the game was based of a system with a bit more nuts, as seen [url=http://www.idsoftware.com/games/doom/doom3/index.php?game_section= sysreq] here [/url]. I may love the Xbox in ways that have been called creepy, but its still just a old computer with 64mb of RAM. [[b]edit[/b]] Nice I check page 10 and my post ends up on page 12. Some one said that Doom for the xbox has been redone, yeah it has, but it still asks far less then Halo 2 does of the Xbox [[b]/edit[/b]] B) Think about this, I Rainbow 6 and Black Arrow how many simultaneous AI's is it running? Is Rainbow 6 crunching numbers for vehicle physics? How big is a Rainbow 6 map in comparison to a halo map? Like Rainbow 6, all that Doom3 has to deal with is enemies, a few players and a map not much smaller then Battle Crossing. On top of that, with the exception of the zombie marines who have the uncanny ability to find you no matter where you go, not that many of Doom's enemies are the sharpest tool in the shed. So the simple answer is no. [Edited on 9/18/2004 7:05:47 PM]

they said you cant dual weild with the flag because the flag is heavy, thats rubbish, their spartans, they can lift a tank, a flag and a pistol wouldent present a problem weight wise.
-
Thanks alot for the info hey did anyone else notice that he said they were gonna be all smiles in a few week and i am pretty damn sure Nov 9th anit in a few weeks???????
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Nedus dont bother flaming him. its pointless. Bungie did a damn good job of answering all our questions in addition to the enormous task of finishing Halo 2. pure ass kickery.[/quote] He can flame if he want's to but he should message the flamee instead of doing it here.
-
See, this is why bungie has a huge fan base... Bungie is awesome to their fans. Great job guys and no rush on the prizes okay :P
-
Thanks a lot for taking some time to answer questions. Greatly appreciated and good luck in the final stages of Halo 2's developement :)

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Soldier17 i dont no were in the forum i am but all i want to know is why the date for release got moved from 9th to 11th. if this actually gets to any one can u please reply. also how do i access your reply. obviously im an amature in the this internet business.[/quote] the 9th is the us release, the 11th is the euro date. hope that helped.
-
sure thing, bro, the reason im so stuck im so stuck on this online coop is coz my best friend in the world has cancer, and i moved away from him the summer before last, and we have a pact that we will play thru coop together on live first thing after the box gets opened come november 9th. but like theres some other cool folks here, just have to sift through the bull-blam!- to see their posts. okay okay, he doesnt have cancer, but bungie, if you see this, IT COULD HAPPEN, sorry for being such a douche, lol.
-
One thing I think everyone forgot to ask was if there is still going to be the reflections of what of is front of the Master Chief on his visors. With the visor and other surfaces in Halo 2 be able to show reflection, or was that just a pipe dream?

Thank you Warwolf, you seem to be the only person here that actually has more than half a brain here, ugh this place is such a tard farm.

Hi Frankie and sketch, I just wanted to ask: Is there going to be a halo 2 original sound track cause i have the first one and it rules. And secondly i read something on the FAQ about covanant scumbags scrambling up walls to get away from dangerous areas and i wondered if they could do it in co-op and if spartans would be able to climb after them? Thanks for your time yours roguefully ROGUE SPARTAN
