Official Halo 3 Thread - Halo > You

Oh noes!!!! Damn bungie i love you. Forge mode anyone?


>Map editor (you're not making your own maps though)
> Does not support geometry creation, or texture modification
> Allows you to remove and place any items or vehicles or spawn points or objectives, etc... anywhere on the existing maps
> For things like weapons you can tweak their respawn timer and ammo count and other minor things
> You can have multiple people work in the Forge editor over Xbox Live!
> You can also dynamically switch from creation mode to playing mode and run around in the game.
> If you are "playing" in Forge and have other players in it, they can still change things! For instance, if you have a friend making a pyramid of fusion cores, you can return to "play" mode and lob a grenade in to destroy all his work!
> Make your own kind of games in forge. Bungie gives the example of grab the mongoose. One player rides a mongoose while everyone else tries to grab it out from under him by removing it in Forge! Another is like a magic carpet ride where one player will stand on a object and a forge monitor will drag it along making the player ride it through the air.
> Finally Bungie talked about how you can kind of make it into a real-time strategy game (RTS) where you set up "teams" where each team has a monitor creating items for his team to use.

They didnt say no. Just said not sure because of the difficulty. Said the maps were so large making it difficult. But they could supprize us.

There are more scans like this but i dont feel like posting. I am sure all this info will be released soon. Looks like a human Banshee. Elephant carrier(OMFG). The elit on top is holding one of the new weapons, Gravity Hammer. And also shows the flamethrower. Man i like the idea of elephant carrier.
 
I didn't know that there was a hammer, and the bubble shield is a very good idea.

Lol at other language. Basically bungie confirmed 4 player online co-op.

During a official press conference in Amsterdam Microsoft and Bungie confirmed that Halo 3 will feature 4 player cooperative play on Xbox Live. More info coming soon.

"In Halo 3, the third installment of the legendary epic, the war has come to a climax; the Flood continues to grow in numbers and strength, the armies of Earth are scattered and decimated, and the Covenant threatens to activate the Halo, effectively destroying all life in the galaxy. Master Chief’s mission is to stop the Covenant, destroy the impending Flood threat and, ultimately, save mankind."

Seriously, for me... This is looking to be the best game ever... So much i like to do is included in this game, and the art style of halo is something i always love.
 
omg i think i need to change my pants
 
OHHHHH SEX! This is getting nuts."For fictional reasons, we decided to avoid Halo’s slightly surreal compromise of two identical Master Chiefs and rather, use this opportunity to expand the Halo universe just a little bit. Player one will control the Master Chief, player two will control the Arbiter and players three and four will get the chance to control two brand new Elite characters.
PLAYER 3 (Sangheili)
Name: N’tho ‘Sraom
Affiliation: Fleet of Retribution/Special Warfare Group/Special Operations
History: N’tho ‘Sraom is the youngest member of his Special Operations unit and is one of a growing number of human sympathizers amongst the Sangheili youth. He is a fairly typical young male adult Sangheili—he began compulsory military service at the end of adolescence, and remains unmarried with no close, non-familial relationships outside of his martial order. N’tho Sraom refused to stand idly by while the Prophets replaced Sangheili units with Jiralhanae packs, and now bears deep resentment toward those Sangheili politicians who landed his kind in their current predicament.

Although N’tho ‘Sraom’s romanticized nationalism is emblematic of all Sangheili, he has developed a healthy respect for humanity—not for their physical abilities or martial prowess, but for their audacity and resolve.

PLAYER 4 (Sangheili)
Name: Usze ‘Taham
Affiliation: Fleet of Retribution/Special Warfare Group/Fleet Security
History: Although Usze ‘Taham was born into a respected merchant family he was fathered by Toha ‘Sumai—one of the preeminent swordfighters of this age. Usze graduated with honors from the top War College in the Iruiru region of Yermo, Sanghelios (a distinction he shares with Rtas 'Vadum). Shortly after receiving his first post within the Covenant Navy he was offered a place on the Prophets’ Honor Guard but he declined citing “lack of practical experience”. In truth, he had no desire to be part of a largely ceremonial unit, and at the end of his third combat tour, Usze ‘Taham again refused the post—even though his superiors warned him such behavior could be misinterpreted as apostasy.

Since that time Usze has evaded countless punitive actions, at least two assassination attempts, and served with distinction for two additional tours before the Schism. Following the dissolution of the Covenant, he was approached by the Ascetics to become one of their liaisons within the Navy."

That blue elite is fucking huge.
 
Baller, yeah that blue elite is bad ass.
 
I just creamed



Halo rocks
 
yeah i read that earlier at bungie and the only sadness i had about halo 3 had been cured!!!
this game keeps getting more and more awesome.
best game of the year for sure.
 
was reading the weekly update,
they mentioned some more forge stuff!
they said one of the team members filled the elephant with tons of fusion cores and gave them a near INSTANT respawn time. so when they exploded it would cause a massive explosion chain...and respawn them all.
What they didnt expect was, though the elephant is indestructable and very heavy...it still has physics. and that massive explosion sent the elephant spinning around and rolling around wildly while shooting out fusion cores and vehicles.
imagine making that a game type like...spin the bottle or something.

but best of all INDIVIDUAL CO-OP SCORING!!! i cant express how happy this makes me. it will record each players scores seperatley, headshots, kills, damage etc. that is going to be fun since me and my friends enjoyed arcade mode in marvel ultimate alliance so much just to see who came out on top at the end.
Recently i told my friend that the beta kinda killed my hype, while i loved playing it, it gave me a big enough taste that my anticipation was calmed and i felt i could wait.
but with the release of more and more info on this HUGE epic game...my anticipation is building higher than it was before.

And i wonder whats up with that collaboration tool they are making for halo 3 to adjust tv's perfectly for the ultimate halo 3 experience. sounds odd, but hey...if it enchances the pre-decided game of the year, im all for it!
 
This game is gonna rule the year. It's a toss-up in my mind between Halo 3 and Metroid Prime 3: which one's gonna occupy my time. Good thing Blue Dragon and Eternal sonata are coming out beforehand, gives me enough time to beat them. XD
