papa_face stop acting like you know everything how would you know whats fact about the halo movie did the director walk up to and tell you everything they are planning for it so u could go on forums with something to talk about?
mkaseatgb what are you talkin about the earth mac guns require more time to reload if u remeber on cairo station in halo two you actually see the mac gun firing and it only takes like 5 seconds to reload and fire a round
by the way the elite in the white armour and scars is the spec ops commander

I'm not acting like a know everything. What I said about the film is Fact, maybe you should try looking around for the information because it has been released. The director hasn?t been chosen yet, but the producer has. The script has already been written, it?s hardly a secret.

Yes I know, he's called Half-Jaw like I said.

I think he meant that they take longer to load than the normal Mac guns.
P.S Is it actually possible to act like I know everything on a forum; I either know it or I don't. Everything I have said is based on facts and facts alone, apart from of course my theories. Just stop whining just because someone on this thread appears to know more than you.

yea yea yea Half-Jaw kicks major arse(i say arse soo i dont have to say a$$ im not britsh for all ur info jus sayin)I read in a post in the halo2/3 forum that there might be 2 ways to play the game lik u can play it as a first person shooter or a stratgy game as cortanna. Does anyone bleive that or know wat im talkin bout. i read that if u play as cortanna u lik send pelicans out and marines and cordinate attacks and junk lik that. dumb idea but i guess cool for a pc halo3 adeptation. Thanks for tellin me whos alive i didnt feel lik readin my books last chapters again. And bout halfjaw i was sayin u no how when ur 2 spartens it doesnt feel lik there's 2 cheifs cause the spartens that r still alive all share the same armor(i think correct me if im wrong) but when ur the arbiter its kinda gay to c 2 arbiters runnin around killin things. so when u play coop it would be cool to have the main guy as the arbiter and ur buddy as Half-Jaw and if would also add more content to the game cause u would have ur single player story line and then when u play coop all they would have to do is like edit the cutscenes alittle bit and add some dialoge for the 2nd character and that would make coop feel lik u no u have to play the game alone and with a friend. It doesnt seem lik alot of trouble to do this cause when u play halo ce on legendary and u get the alternate ending it would just be alternate cut scenes.

Interesting ideas bntyhntr, but I really dont think people who love Halo and Halo 2 will want to play a Halo strategy.

On top of what Papa_face said, the guns on Reach took 5 seconds to reload and the ones on earth take longer. Go play the game and time it, they take 15 seconds to reload. 15 is greater than five, in case you didnt know your math.

I've never heard that before. I'm pretty glad I haven?t either coz it sounds terrible. I highly doubt that they will do that, it just wouldn?t be Halo. It would be like going to the foundations of the game on MAC (which is bad). I cringe at that thought.
The alternate cut-scenes idea is a good one in theory; however I doubt that they would do that because it is basically using unnecessary DVD space. Alternate cut-scenes are a luxury so to speak, that?s why they were very very short additions to the original cut-scenes in Halo CE and Halo 2. A good idea, but I highly doubt (again lol) that it will happen. Maybe with the intervention of HD disks but not with the regular DVD?s that is being used at the moment, even with the sophisticated compressions.

Oh btw I knew you didnt come up with it, just incase you thought that. I have heard rumors that there will be 2 games I suppose you could say:
1 game is a campaign just with the MC,
and the other is just with the Arbiter.
Although it would be cool if that happend, I doubt that Bungie will or has enough time to produce something like that.

Hey guys I think I konw were he got that inf from and here is only that part ok. This was in an other halo forum in afterdawn i think it was halo2/3
So why am I putting so much emphasis on the zoomed out camera mode and the massive level sizes? Why is Bungie dedicating so much time to programming in an AI smart enough to literally take over for a human player for short periods of time? Why are there going to be so many characters engaged in combat all over the level at any one time? Why did Bungie spend such a large part of Halo 2 introducing a new covenant ally that is also a playable character? Why is it so important that enough fans write to Microsoft to convince them to include backward compatibility and a HDD in Xbox 2? Because Bungie is seriously considering taking the Halo universe back to it?s original roots in some of massive outdoor maps in the single player campaign. And by it?s original roots, I?m referring to how Halo originally started as an RTS. Fear not Halo fans, a top priority of Bungie is that this be integrated into the gameplay seamlessly so that players can easily switch back and forth from the aerial RTS perspective whenever they desire. Halo is still fully designed to be an fps first and foremost and you will be able to play through the entire game without once having to try the RTS aspect of the game if you so desire. Every level starts from the fps perspective and ends with the fps perspective. Sure in some of the massive outdoor single player levels, you will be able to zoom out to a more aerial perspective for some RTS functionality at any time, but this is by no means a critical component of the game, just a fun diversion of sorts.
So how will this feature be implemented? From what I can gather, everything about this mode, including whether or not it will even be included, is still very much up in the air. Several Bungie employees are unsure how fans will react to this addition, no matter how well it?s implemented or how unintrusive it will be to the fps mode. So if you?re indeed interested in seeing this feature be implemented, I strongly recommend that you contact Bungie with your reaction and contact MS with your desire a HDD be included to allow for the plans that Bungie has for Halo 3. But here?s how the mode is being approached for now. Cortona will be rescued early on and will take charge of coordinating Earth?s forces against the invading hordes. She will be observing the entire battlefield from an aerial perspective. And in certain levels, you can opt to switch to her perspective by pressing a button (likely the black button) giving the AI control of Master Chief or the Arbiter or whichever character you were commanding. The AI plays far more conservatively with these characters than a normal human player so they won?t die on their own losing you the mission. But since they are not nearly as aggressive as human players, assuming their character will be essential to complete missions. As Cortana, you will assume Cortana?s various duties but can at anytime opt to switch back to your character, or possibly any allied character found on the battle field that you select.
If you want the whole inf tell me and I'll post it here ok. I like the whole thing and I think is pretty cool:)

that is exactly wat i was tryin to say. that is wat i read in the halo2/3 but wit a little more detail. obviously sparten87 was just tryin to sum up the idea and papa now u no wat i was talkin bout. I think halo3 should include this because it would add alot more play time and value to the game. But the difference i would add is that u cant jus switch between them. they should be 2 like entirly options. like the same story but when u choose to start a new campaign and pick ur difficuly it should say like play classic halo (fps) or battefield combat, commander mode , cortanna, etc (rts) and if u pick the rts it will only include the large scale battles not the u no lik close combat corrider type levels cause obviously u cant play those rts like. ok thats my look on the rts and and fps way of doin it.

Well it sounds like a good idea, but not for Halo or indeed Halo 3. This in my opinion is the worst case scenario. If would be more like playing a game of C&C than Halo 3. Originally Halo was designed to be a MAC game with a third person view. When Bungie was bought by Microsoft they allowed Bungie to do better and more advanced things, with the use of Microsoft's never-ending money supply. This is why they switched from real time strategy type game to a fps. FPS's are generally seen to be more pleasing on the eyes and give the wow factor almost every time, hence Bungie (and Microsoft) decided to go for this sort of game play.
At first the A.I in Halo was all scripted. This was before Microsoft realised that Bungie had a great idea. So when Microsoft realised the potential for such a game they ploughed their money right into the heart of Bungie. From then on Bungie started to develop real time A.I, which eventually developed into the Halo CE we see today.
So... naturally going back to the routes may seem at first a good idea, but when you look into the reasons why and how those roots were formed it builds up a different picture.
I can say with almost certainty that this will not be implemented into Halo 3, or another of Bungie's creations for that matter. Why? Because Bungie isn?t that type of company. Bungie strives on deep mysterious missions and secrets, something of which cannot be implemented into a RTS type game. Yeah it may only be part RTS but it what would the point in that be.
You would find yourself looking from the eyes of a Rampant character, there would be practically no mystery left in Cortana if this was done, because it would be like being ?her?.

Neither Bungie nor Microsoft would ever listen to people like us. Why? Because it all opinion based, and therefore does not reflect the feelings of gamers as a whole. As for HDD that is already being developed, and should if things go well be available next year.

If you want to see an example of what Halo was supposed to look like, watch the origional Halo trailer that was presented at e3 before the xbox was released. I'm definatly glad they changed it ;)

I doubt it, if they can come up with something like Halo. Also thats not an idea, its more of a total game rewrite. Not to mention Bungie's general genre.

No the Maptacular pack only has a bit of footage from Halo 2 that was deleted as far as I am aware. The LE has a evolution of Halo video, from when it was first made to now.

Welcome T4spartan. His last post was on page 14, he made a stern point about Halo 3 and the Xbox 360. It may have been the "final straw" with Halo.

That is footage from the game before and after it changed to PC and Xbox. That is not a Halo 3 trailer.
P.S Do you think we are stupid, that was rediculous.

What the hell was I just watchin can someone tell me and I know this isnt halo3.

You were watching a trailer that was made by Bungie with lets just say some added extras. Basially it was more of a trailer for Halo CE and Halo 2. Not Halo 3.
