The First Halo 3 Humpday

This week the Humpday Challenge went internal with three head-to-head Halo 3 matches at Bungie Studios. Six men, three maps and an unlimited amount of vague descriptions. Don’t expect to find screenshots or new info on maps, weapons or multiplayer modes in here.

  • Blast! I'm usually the one to post the finer detailed game stats by looking through gamertags, so I guess I won't be doing that this time. *Sniff* But hey! It got me semi excited reading about a Halo 3 match :)

  • It would be nice though if bungie would tell us the names of the maps so we could imagine what their going to look like.

  • This might not hold too much information, but I still enjoyed the update. It had a humourous tone to it. I found it to be a fun read. Nice update. :)

  • I hated fall damage in halo 1 and I will hate it in Halo 3, so please keep it out. Oh and X06 is this week, we should expect something Halo related from this. Be patient and we will hopefully see something this week. I also really don't want a health system back. They should really update the halo 2 mulitplayer gameplay and that's it. I mean you can change weapons and stuff, just leave the health, shield system alone. It is perfect just the way it is. Again I say leave out fall damage, that could be the biggest mistake ever if you guys put that in halo 3 . [Edited on 9/24/2006]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] alex505 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Eric The Red Lamest. Update. Ever. Don't give us an update if you're not going to tell us anything. I think it's about high time we got at least some tidbit of new information. Either say nothing at all or give us something, this constant 'non-information' is annoying. [/quote] Exactly, they can give us information, a screenshot or two, maybe even a small video with no trouble at all, but why don't they? I say it's because they're stuck up asses who don't give a -blam!- about their fans as long they get their paycheck. Everyone on these forums rides Bungie's d*ck so much they don't even let Bungie know their honest opinions about them for fear of "getting on their wrong side" or even worse, (gasp) the blacklist, wow, how scary. As for the "money making" comment some retard made up top, I could say something along those lines such as "At least I get laid more often than yearly", but why would I? It has nothing to do with anything regarding the topic.[/quote] No it does have to relate idiot cause you say your better than bungie yet they make money playing the game. They get owned and make money, you get owned and cry in a corner.

  • Oh man, I love how Bungie can play Halo3 "challenges" with each other, and not even have the deceny to post any pictures/videos. But yet when the game comes out on Xbox Live, they're the worst Halo players on Live. Keep practicing with each other and not revealing any information on the game at all, you guys need every advantage you can get if you don't wanna get your asses handed to you on your own game on every one of your little challenges. (especially how you're playing it a year before the game comes out) Boy, I love Bungie.

  • [quote]Ninja ran around like a remote-controlled car operated by a blind, retarded monkey: running into walls, staring at the ground and jumping for no apparent reason.[/quote] Funniest Humpday write-up. Ever. I guess the ironic part of the whole thing is that everyone has been there at some stage in their lives. Maybe it's just a stage for poor old Ninja?

  • Also, for those of you who really don't follow Bungie and just pretend to be fans, the Gravity lifts were NOT put in Halo 2 cause there was NO "Fall Damage or Health System". The Gravity lifts were put in because Bungie "could not stand what it looked like when the MC walked up the Ladders". Legs moving arms and guns out. Bungie made it perfectly clear why they upgraded to grav lifts. It was just too hard to make the Ladder climbing look real and shoot at the same time. Gravity lifts fixed this visual weekness.Grav lifts have nothing to do with the Health System or Fall Damage! I noticed also that in the first game they played, they shot accross two grav lifts and shot at eachother, "But noone did significant Damage"........"Significant Damage" ?....HMMMMM does this mean there is infact a Health System ? I HOPE SO !

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] gween_awien Well fall damage would probably get rid of super jumping. I think it should be brought back. Master Chief is strong, but not invincible. Unless.....OMG MASTER CHIEF IS INVINCIBLE IN HALO 3!!!!!1!!1[/quote] Well, for starters, the MC is definatley part Human. We know he can die. My question is that if he can Die? Why can't he get Hurt as well? I think that one of the greatest concepts of the MC was the fact that yea, he is still Human and yea, if he gets hurt and doesnt get Medical Treatment, yea, he Will infact Die easier. I think this added a lot more "Grind" to the game when it had Fall Damage or a health system rather. It's one of the things that I missed most in Halo 2 was the No Health System. I think it gives him more of a "Terminator" Roll without the Health System, and less of a Part Human trying to save the Human Race Roll. Also, Having the Fall Damage or Health System back would certainly make those hard to reach jumps over catwalks an added Talent/Skill and Not so much a "If imiss this jump, Oh well i guess I'll just have to walk my Noob Ass around the Long way." I also think that the map usage would expand as well, you cant sit behind the same obstacle every game and peek out and get hit till your shield is down and then hide again till it recharges. Once again, Talent and Skilless. but who cares about those things, when all you need to do is "Log Games". And for the guy who asked if there is NO Fall Damage or Health System, "Who Knows where the game is headed"....... I can tell yuo this and it is only my opininon. I think Bungie to be already working on their next game. Halo 2 has only been out for 2 years and already Bungie Has called it "One of their old games" and to not expect any new maps for it, because it is bungies "OLD GAME". I think that they will probably release their next game around a year after Halo 3. Basically Makling Halo 3 and Old Game at Launch. I dunno what I'm tryin to say except I think that now in the big scheme of things with MS and all and the new awesome console techknology, that there will not be much support for any new games released for the 360. I fear that Halo 3 will be another "Fly By Night" game that will be good for about a year or so before everyone loses interest or starts losing interest like what happened to Halo 2, and that Epic Sequal we have all been waiting for will never ever be released. Just my opinion, just my thoughts, please don't be mad...... And as far as the guys who asked about modding and cheating........if you are that concerned with Modding, then wait untill the Networking specsa are released for Halo 3 before you buy it. If it is networked like Halo 2, with ONE Xbox sending a different code that the others, then believe me no matter what Bungie or anyone tells you, Modding will be just as easy for Halo 3 as it is for Halo 2. We can Only Hope that they Network it to Have Every Box as A Client and No actual Server, this will force ALL XBOX's to have the same code, and if a different code is detected, the game simply won't work......AT ALL ! But If Bungie continues to use a "Synthesized" or "Predicted" Networking with 1 Server and the rest Clients, then we will be in for just as much Modding for Halo 3 as we are seeing with Halo 2. And NO, they unfortunately cannot stop the monster they have created. It is Kinda Like Dr' Frankenstein. Sory for the Bad news, but i am still a very big Bungie/Halo CE: fan.
