DOES NOT look like Best Graphics!!! :(

I'm glad you can tell us this from Digital Pictures of Magazine Scans of Downscaled Images from an Alpha Build of a game containing Placeholder Textures.

Go complain somewhere else please. It looks absolutely gorgeous.

Weather effects in MP! Finally! Mongoose!

I think i'm with the majority--everyone else going for the Legendary Edition?

Low res scans of an alpha version with placeholder textures--and it still looks beautiful. :happy:

2 new weapons

The Spiker - New weapon for Brutes, it’s a nail grenade type weapon that sticks on walls and bursts nails into the air

The Spartan Laser - An anti-veichle weapon, fires a red laser that pretty much destroys any veichle that is hit. Hard to use.

The multiplayer leves are

Valhalla(Blood Gulch)

High Ground(Zanzibar)

Snowbound(Frost bite)

Three Multiplayer levels were tested:

: Three different multiplayer levels does our own Halo-Fanboy Thomas Wiborgh

: have time to try out and the levels are limited by invisible walls. If the

: player reaches to far outside of the level they will be attacked by an

: automatic defense. Whats the point of it is not presented in the text.

: One of the multiplayer level is called "Snowbound". It's a battle

: level in winter territorie with large Covenant bases. On the levels are

: also bunkers that are protected by energyshields. These shields can't be

: penetrated by bullets and grenades, but players can go through it though.

: Another level is called "Highground", its shaped for teamplay and

: reminds of the Halo 2 level "Zanzibar". One team has to defend a

: base that is on a hill. The other team begins in a beach below the base

: and has the mission to attack it. In the base you can open alarge gate

: that lets a warthog from the beach drive inside the base.

: The third and last level is called "Valhalla" and is a forest

: covered level with mountains in the horizon. It's so big that it is made

: for vehicles and has two large bases placed out. (It's suppose to be the

: new "Blood Gulch".)

What's the Legendary edition? Sorry haven't been following this that much.

Start by reading the thread :) It's there.

Legendary Edition

The CE will be called ?Legendary Edition? and is a replica of Master Chief?s helmet complete with four DVD discs. The first disc will be the game disc, the second will contain documentaries and developer comments, the third disc is all about the spin-off material that has been created (Red vs. Blue, Spark of Life etc) and the last disc will contain all of the cut scenes from Halo 1 to 3 in HD.

Yeah it does look good if you ask me.

Only defence I have for that guy is people do exactly the same thing with in development PS3 games.

I thought it best to point out these things clearly before some newbie or anti-x360 person comes without reading.

- THIS IS AN ALPHA BUILD, UNFINISHED VISUALS, GAMEPLAY, MECHANICS etc.

***ONLY*** the below images are CONCEPT ART, THE REST ARE INGAME.

edit: there are one or two more that are, these are obvious though so i wont update.

What if you could save your own movies from Halo 3's single- and multiplayer gameplay and then rewatch them? In Halo 3, you can.

It's on now! Montages galore!

Now that is going to be sweet. I imagine this will make all those who like finding glitces and weird places etc. happy.

      The only reason I want to know where you from is because if you are not from the U.K, then why should you care what we in the U.K do or don't do? Racist I am not, I am fed up with the amount coming over here and feel they can come over here and think we need to support them. Do you know how much it costs this country to support these people coming over here? Even when we give them a place to live it is not good enough. We had a barge that was being used to house immigrants, oh but that was not good enough. A mate said to me at the time, when he was homeless, he would have been happy to live on the barge, instead of ending up sleeping on a bench on the beach. I am not scared to say what my family heritage is, unlike you who is scared to say where they are from or where they live. Father side U.S, mother side Wales, still have family living in the U.S. A mate who sadly died a few years ago, had a load of people from different races recording in his studio, I got on with all of them. Skin colour don't bother me, where they are from don't bother me. Religion don't bother me as long as they don't push it onto me and it is not crazy stuff. I am not religious. But if you are not living in the U.K, then why should you care if we are in the E.U or not? This the problem, too many people poking their noses into where it don't belong. But you believe what you believe, if you think I am racist, then be it, I really do not care. Just grow a pair

      If he hasn't been able to figure that out, then why is he obsessed with tariffs? Because that's one of the most prominent tools to level the playing field when you have high cost of labor.
    • Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft released the newest preview update (C-release) under KB5095093. Alongside those, Microsoft also released new dynamic updates. For those who may not know, dynamic updates bring improvements to the Windows Recovery process in the form of Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) updates, which are also called Safe OS updates. The dynamic updates also affect the Setup file binaries in the form of Setup updates. These Dynamic Update packages are meant to be applied to existing Windows images prior to their deployment. Dynamic Updates also help preserve Language Pack (LP) and Features on Demand (FODs) content during the upgrade process. VBScript, for example, is currently an FOD on Windows 11 24H2. This time both recovery and setup updates were released for Windows 11. The company writes: "KB5095186: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, version 26H1: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.28000.2335. KB5102558: Setup Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to Windows setup binaries or any files that setup uses for feature updates in Windows 11, version 24H2 and Windows 11, version 25H2. KB5095615: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.26100.8737." Microsoft notes that both the Recovery and Setup updates will be downloaded and installed automatically via the Windows Update channel.
