  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Fyeris He said that the Object on his desk is sometimes shiny, and will be saught after for years to come. That means that it's important so maybe it's a new redone awesome version of the Halo 3 Legendary Edition Master Chief Helmet. SHINY!!! or it could just be the finished game disc. who really knows, but tell me if u think i'm right.[/quote] He says they're still tweaking, it wouldn't be the game disc. Otherwise the game would be shipping next week or already. Think, man, think! ;-)

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] KrazyKrl I bet that that gametype will be so absurdly awesome; that it causes Lenin to come back from the dead; and pimp-slap Katie Couric back to the IHOP pancake bar. But I digress... [/quote] ROFL, that was really funny. [quote]Gametype with probably Low-Grav, extra bigger explosivenesstaculartotheXTREME, invincible vehicles, and any number of cool things; would bring back the good old days... Of playing chicken with the warthogs in Blood Gulch.[/quote] Hmmm, chicken. Now I'm hungry, damn it ... Here's a game type idea that I think might be fun. I don't know how good an idea it is. Too late to add to the game now, I know. Maybe it can be added as a downloadable add-on: A gametype like dodgeball with a somewhat size-constrained map (like H2 CTF map, I think it's called Foundation. Sorry, I'm not a dweeb that has all the map names memorized). It would be the opposite of the capture the ball game type (or whatever it's called, I also don't memorize game type names :-). You try to minimize the number of seconds the ball is in your possession. If you score a hit on someone the possession passes to them. If you miss, the ball teleports back into your hands within 2 seconds and you retain possession. The person who has the ball can see markers for everyone, in case someone enables the game type on a really huge map (although this could be turned off to make the game doubly challenging, but it could get old. Like dodgeball, the fun is in trying to hit people, it's not hide-and-seek.) And the person who has the ball doesn't show up on radar and has extra armor, since people are going to gang up on them to keep them from passing the ball to someone else. I hope my idea makes it in some way. :-) Oh, and I think the shiny object is the H3 game box, or the box for the collector's edition. If you remember, the H2 not-so-limited collector's edition was shiny metal. I think the reference to absorbing light, etc., means it may have a holographic sleeve or something. That's my theory anyhow :-)

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] TORO 02 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Atkins_Diet I just hope I timed the weekly update right.[/quote] Since the game is in Zero Bug Release, I don't think you "timed" this right. No significant changes are going to be made from here on, I think fans should just trust Bungie (apparently you say you do, as do I) to create the best game eva! And yes, Bungie always welcomes feedback for improvements, but to "request" some things late in the game seems like you haven't "trusted" them. Anyways not a big deal, but to post a 3 page paper seems kinda irrelevant to me...maybe Bungie too. p.s. Luke owns Frankie...flame away Frankie![/quote] Most of the things I suggested was merly things that I thought might make the game better. I trust them, I also find it not irrelevant at all, and would like to tell me how it is? I never really offered any significant change ideas, besides of course the Sword. ;) Textures, effects, etc are quickies in todays world of video games compared to what else there is to do. I don't even think I addressed any bugs. I think that is irrelevant. I think I stressed that I was not really making any requests, just saying, hey, good job so far, I like this, but I think this would be even better; Oh, and if you can, could you possibly [i]think[/i] about looking at this? And I made it so they could skim if they do not want to even think about reading certin things, all for there convience. Oh, and it is 5 pages on word. ;) -Aktins Diet [Edited on 07.02.2007 6:18 PM PDT]

  • "...plain old memorization to get out of a scrape." Noooooooooooooo! Have you not played Rainbow Six: Vegas Terrorist hunt? The variation of tangos locations in that game is excellent and is what makes it so enjoyable to play game after game. One of the things I though had magnum cheapness was they way you had to memorize sniper placements when playing on Legendary just to get past them. Into the Belly of the Beast is one of my favorite parts of playing Halo on Legendary because of the variation of enemies you get from one attempt to the next. Please keep this variation in H3 and render memorization of enemy placement useless. Especially on legendary. Also, please do not make it Legendary difficulty by nerfing MasterChief while leaving everything else as it is in normal. Instead leave MasterChief as he is in normal and crank up the enemies precision, aggresiveness and above all, their quantity. MasterCheif should have to face huge hordes of enemies, not be made easier to kill then some technician.

  • i recieved the july edition of Gamepro mag recently which has led me to believe that the new gametype reffered to in the weekly update is a match on a map called shrine (the biggest map in the halo series) u start out with rockets and it is an all vehicles match. but thats just my opinion.

  • I think the new game type is gonna be a re-make of the first halos race game type ( a game type that could have been fun on some different maps). If it was set on THE MAW at the end with the warthogs imagine 16 players racing towards the longsword in eight warthogs with rockets flying everywhere that would be complete chaos. Nice update

  • He said that the Object on his desk is sometimes shiny, and will be saught after for years to come. That means that it's important so maybe it's a new redone awesome version of the Halo 3 Legendary Edition Master Chief Helmet. SHINY!!! or it could just be the finished game disc. who really knows, but tell me if u think i'm right.

  • Ummm...just a wild guess, that is probably is way off, but the object placed on your desk wouldn't happen to be an early version of a Xbox portable? That was just the first thing that came to mind when I read it.
