  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] DANO555666 Waz sup 360 is right. Cortana soley saying that would make no sense. Gravemind is definately using her to make transmissions. "I know you, your past, your future" this is gravemind talking about how he knows of the human's Forerunner past, and he knows the way it will turn out again. "This is the way the world ends". I think Gravemind is going to have a very deep role in the plot. Possibly makes his way to earth somehow? But beside all this, the thing that realy interests me is how it seems the Covenant in the trailer have uncovered the arc, and have just activated it. Then followed by "this is the way the world ends" My idea of this is.... That this is actually the end of the game they are showing, but when u play the game, it will start totally differently to this. Possibly with Chief in the forerunner ship. Maybe Gravemind is showing an image of what "may" happen if the covenant succeed. Ah well who really knows? [/quote] I'm with you.... Gravemind is on our side and communicating through cortana. All life forms dont really want to die...at all......neither does Gravemind. I think he'll do what he has to to help ensure galactic destruction does not happen. I think he was put there as the ultimate protecter to ensure that the rings are activated only as an absolute last possible resort. the only ones who want the rings activated are the covenant who we already know are mislead in the ideas of thier great journey.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] iwantbuttcheese [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] c0mfor7a31y_Num3 BTW- Can anyone else confirm the image of "mangled Human Face" in the visor of the chief? i may be trippin, but for a split second right after cortana says i know your past, your future. the refflection is not what the chief is looking either. and thats ovious cause the reflection when the camera turns is clearly the Arifact......Am i nuts?[/quote] nope... your just completly insane...[/quote] Whew......thanks for your honesty, i asked if i was nuts and you said im insane. i wont confirm nor deny this mental state of mind. thanks for a response.

  • Aktins_Diet sory man ... it was meant to be a possitive posts towards your "Good" posts". you can choose to edit them or not. Most of yout posts come off more as "Demands" to Bungie, rather than Speculation or opinion.) thats what started The Bull--blam!- we went through last week) (which caan sound aggravating to alot of people) BTW- nothing you post offends me in anyway, i actually enjoy most of what you say. Editting some things in your post is up to you. I'm only trying to help and i 'd like to hear more of your interests in How Halo 3 is developed. And, i'd actually like to start Discussing the weekly updates in the mannaer we used to be."notice since the hassels with mods and users, we are no longer able to discuss updates from the update page. I really really miss that. and it makes it alot harder to track your own posts, cause now.....everythings discussed in the forums, and there are so many topics i posted on from updates.... and ill be damned if i can find or remember where i posted them.

  • I was wondering if the trailer is meant to be taken "literaly", or merely as a demonstration of the new graphics and such. Also, Has anyone given any word as to where in the game the trailer takes place, or if it is even to be in the game? It looks to me like the Chief is emerging from the wreackage of the forerunner ship, and that could mean that the beginning of the game is there, and perhapse the first mission is to kill the prophet and crash the ship. Also, now that the shroud of secrecey around the game is lifted somewhat, can we expect more details as time goes by? Or Is it all going to be kept under wraps untill the release date?

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] deathshift41 I have a question is MC finally gonna take off his helmet?[/quote] Thats just asking for a smart comment from Frankie :P. His helmet was off at the beginning of Halo 2. A better question would be whether or not we are ever going to see MC's face with the helmet off. The answer is probably no, at least not till the cinematic finale of the game. [Edited on 5/13/2006]

  • I think bungie, should give us more trailers about the game. I know its supposed to make us more interseted, but i cant wait. Also Halo 3 looks a little dark, is there going to be marines in halo3? I hope so, cuz i cant defeat the covenant myself!

  • I know i missed out on the Q & A on the trailer..but i have a question I was listening to the trailer and i noticed when Cortana was talkin you can hear what seems to sound like the gravemind from halo2 and I thought maybe the gravemind is using cortana to talk to the Chief. At the end of halo2 after the credits they were together and The gravemind wanted to ask questions to cortana...am I Completely off on this or is there some relationship to the gravemind in the announcement trailer...Thanks Keep up the amazing Job

Great update. Me friend was in it! Go Trigger Happy... Keep up the good work bungie, and tell marty to get to work on that Song in the Halo 3 Trailer I need it!! =(

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] draken dragon i heard, almost a month after halo 2 came out, that there would be a new spartan in the next game.Sapposadly, if you got the limited edition halo 2 there was a letter describing someone who was injured and put in a hospital. Is this truely a new spartan, and if so when will we see him/her?[/quote] I think it'd be great to see the other Spartans, like Fred, Will, and Linda (for those readers). But Kelly...no one would get her story if they didn't read the books about how she went with Dr. Halsley.

That this is actually the end of the game they are showing, but when u play the game, it will start totally differently to this. Possibly with Chief in the forerunner ship. Maybe Gravemind is showing an image of what "may" happen if the covenant succeed. [/quote] I dont think that would be how the game Ends exactly. In Halo 2, the `Oracle` that the covenant find tells Grieve`s daughter that the rings have gone through `X number simulated and 1 real` Now, even if the forerunners are gone, the covenant and humans are still there. So that means that If they fired it once, (presumably from the Arc on Earth) Sice a civilization appeared (or was still) on Earth, that Earth may not be within the blast radius of the rings. Thus, the people who activate the ring would be able to stay alive, and so Life itself would not cease in the Galaxy. At least thats what I think, but who really knows? Also, Its a total possibility that the Elites have changed sides due to the civil war, considering that those Banshees in the H3 Trailer flew pretty close to Chief, but didnt seem to notice him, or at least not care. The other spartans (some of them) coming back? that would be sweet, and its a possibility the ones on Reach found a way to survive, but that means you would only have a few Spartan allies. Then again, if one can turn the tide of battle, more could turn the tide of the war. Although from the trailer it looks like the war is pretty much over. I hope theres humans left, it would be too depressing to play H3 and realise it was for mere survival, rather than to save at least SOME people.

  • From a mapper's point of view, how large is the level's x y z size(from one edge to another) in units, if you use units in halo mapping? (1 unit = 1 inch) [Edited on 5/13/2006]

  • [quote] Why is the Assault Rifle in there? Who says it's the standard Assault Rifle? Doesn't look identical to me… [/quote] Does That mean that both the Assault Rifle and BR will be appearing in Halo 3? or perhaps a fusion of the two? Because it seems odd that Halo 1 gets the AR and Halo 2 gets the BR but then he is using a slightly diff ver of the AR in Halo 3 again. Also, At the end of Halo 2, he was on the Prophets ship (somewhere) In Earths Orbit. If that Commander (Or whatever) Contacted him when he came into Orbit, and the trailer is after he has landed, does that mean that there are still remanents of the Human Military Force? or at least other Humans? because it seems like the Covenant took control REALLY fast after he just got there. Cant wait till this game comes out, unfortunately im in Japan for the next 10 months (yipee) so at least I wont miss its release date (If i did i think id piss myself)
