The Official Thread for the Bungie Podcast: 81007 Edition
-
Great edition, loving the regular podcasts please keep them coming, learning so much about game development as well as being kept thoroughly entertained keep it up!! A few questions to ask. 1) You have stated that the elephant is currently only on the multiplayer map Sandtrap, however will it be in the campaign? 2) Will there be midnight launches all over the world including Europe and what plans do bungie have? 3) A lot of testing is being done on Halo 3 to make sure it ships as intended, however will we still be seeing any more updates on halo 2? ( more maps, playlist changes, etc) 4) We heard during Bungie updates before the beta about new death animations (when your killed) in Halo 3, now the games coming to completion, will there be lots of new animations when your killed in Halo 3, or when killed with certain weapons, and whats your favourite? 5) Last, to me it seems outside of helping with the podcast Luke smith gets paid to own people in halo 3? What is Luke Smiths "official" role with Bungie? Thanks, keep them coming! [Edited on 08.14.2007 1:07 AM PDT]

A small question for SP/Coop. If I am wearing a headset, when MC gets a message through his earpiece will it only play the sound through speakers or will it play through the 360 headset to add some more immersion?

what changes have been made to the hunters since halo 2. [Edited on 08.13.2007 10:40 PM PDT]

Does Frankie ever walk around the office wearing one of those "Frankie Says:" shirts from the '80s and say jackass things like, "Frankie Says: Get pwned" or "Frankie Says: Epic Phail"? Cause that seems like something he'd do....that jerk. (j/k Frank haha)
-
I've got a simple question for anybody that is in the podcast (if this is answered) What are your favorite weapons? If revealed so far.
-
Here is a question I'm sure quite a bit of people would like to know... Dirtrider29 asks: Will vehicle physics be altered by explosives to everyone in the game(on live) or would it be strictly for the host? It Halo 2, if you were the server and you were driving say a puma, when you get hit by an explosive, you would go flying with crazy stunts,etc. But if you were just a client xbox, you would just get damaged and no crazy physics:( I think it is a pretty plausible question, not like your giving anything a way...:/

I would like to ask you guys if you could discuss on the next Podcast about the situation with the needler. I don't know if it was discussed on the forum before or Bungie has said anything about it. But I'm not about to go through the thousands of pages of topics in the Halo 3 forum to find out and I'm sure no one else on here would do that. I wanted to know why the Needler wasn't dual wieldable on the Beta. And if it's gonna be like that on the game when it ships. I know it might be a very powerful weapon to dual wield. But why change it from Halo 2, it has a normal size to carry on each hand. I thought that was the whole idea of dual wielding about. Being able to fit a small to medium size gun on each hand. If you can answer that question I would be very thankful. thank you for taking the time to read my post. Now I leave. Edit: Never mind... I read the weapons thread and they explained it on the Halopedia. Well.. if you could only address the matter why you guys decided to make it a single handed weapon and just address it briefly. It would be nice hearing it from you guys. [Edited on 08.13.2007 9:37 PM PDT]

How much will things "cost" when in Forge? Will it be related to points in the metagame?
-
Also: [b]Question:[/b] In Forge, when testing our creations as a Player, will we be able to test multiple objective items at once? For example, the Flag and Bomb at the same time?
-
Vehicles! Mind my spelling. Is things like the Scarab, Phantom, Pelican and other vehicles be driveable? Maybe as a downloadable content or otherwise? I mean after all this is the last Halo game so wouldn't it be good if you could drive the vehicles that weren't driveable before?
-
Thinking about the 'Claim your Gametype' threads going around, I think it might be kind of neat if for one of the podcasts, you could choose a viable gametype/maptype entry from any random user and incorporate it into Forge and give it a testplay with some others in the office, and then describe it and let us know how it went in the Podcast. That aside, here's another question: Major Nelson recently announced a Microsoft machinimaking rules page, explaining a list of Do's and Don'ts. One of the don'ts happened to be that we cannot use the game's original audio. We all know Bungie's got an incredible sound team, so does that mean all or most of the audio in Halo 3 is Bungie-owned, or will we not be able to use the original audio from Halo 3 either?

Luke, seeing as Halo 3 is coming, in vast proportions might I assume, I am wondering if it is possible to talk about Bungie more in general. Maybe talk about what it takes to get a job or internship at Bungie, what Bungie is looking for, and what Bungie likes to see as far as work ethics. I'm sure that after Halo 3 ya'll will probably have a whole new project to work on and might need more people. I'm just interested in seeing what bar Bungie sets for people.

TALK ABOUT THE FLAMETHROWER AND INCENEDARY

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] xfire grunt There ought to be a podcast summary for those with lives, and who can't afford to listen to a 57 minute podcast every week, especially with having to listen to the occasional news podcast to keep track of the world. It could just take like 30 minutes or so to write. [/quote] You have time to read the Halo message boards, but not time to listen to the podcast?

no prob

I noticed in the podcast, Frankie said his bug did not get fixed... Entirely my question is not through. Along with this, and this is purely selft fear, I hear chat and laughter at times in the recent podcast of "BxR' and other "problems" straight players have to deal with... My question is this. In Halo 3 will and is Bungie taking all means nessecary (as they did for all other aspects of the game) to ensure there are no more weapon glithces instituted by the programmers?... Thanks p.s. the podcast in my book from you guys is beyond words (yes B'nosing again) the tidbits you leave keep me hanging on till that day. September 25th. Poo Poo you better hope they have one for you...;) [Edited on 08.13.2007 4:25 PM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CarpeDeezeNuts Question: What kind of things will you be able to modify with the skulls and exactly how many are there? [/quote] I would also like to know that.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] fat santa eater will the new incediary grenade stick to walls like the spike grenade?[/quote] No, from what I understand they explode on contact. Question: What kind of things will you be able to modify with the skulls and exactly how many are there? Question2: Even though it was stated that the "jelly" stuff inside the incendiary grenade was "unkown", isn't it phospherous, reacting with the oxygen in the air it has an exothermic reaction which causes imense heat (like the ones that we use today)...JW And if it sounds like I dont know what I'm talking about then I probably don't.

Not to get off topic or anything but i was looking at the Halo 3 screenshots and on the second line titled "Before The Charge" There is some Coveneant member there, it doesn't look like Brute but it has almost the same features except for something sticking out of its right arm in the back.
-
awesome podcast i listened to the first one atleast 20 times but so far the 8/01/07 podcast is the only one that comes close to being as good as the first if i may make a suggestion it has three words "more teabag banter"
-
Please discuss if there will be any gameplay videos posted by Bungie really soon. Watching the same videos from the same three maps on the same 3 maps is getting boring.
-
Is there any way Bungie could do a video podcast showing off Forge? (or are the features supposed to be a surprise?) And what happened to the "Halo 3 Mystery Sound" segment? It was only on the first episode.
