Pajter Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 This is exactly the reason Bungie didn't release much info back when they were creating Halo 2. It's a real bad choice of them to start releasing Halo 3 stuff, so long before the launch. What they're showing is stuff they're not even certain about themselves, let alone finished elements. People will look at it, and before they know what the f*** it is about, they'll start shouting about how crap it is. This is NOT a good representation of how Halo 3 will be, so please stop complaining about stuff that's not even final. It's great that Bungie releases stuff so early. I personally love to see it all develop, but unfortunately most people will just start getting dissapointed anyways. Everybody takes this stuff the wrong way. Bungie should know that this is not a smart thing to do, since instead of hyping their game, they're only dissapointing people who already expect to see top-notch graphics, physics, animations, AI and whatnot. For god's sake just don't watch the vids, they'll only make you cry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayepecks Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 status-seeker, damn, when are you expecting the game to come out, 2009? More about Gears of War was released when it was a year before that was coming out. Halo 3 shouldn't take more than a year to complete given the state it's in right now, and should likely take less than a year. Other developers release actual gameplay footage that shows more than this when they're early in development, too. What's so wrong about being critical about a product you're anticipating? People do it all the time. It's called concern. There's nothing wrong with it at all. Some people may find the video great, others may not. To me, I don't think this game will be much of an improvement over the previous two games -- seems to me that Bungie's sticking to a tried-and-tested method here with extremely minor changes. To parallel your own advice, for goodness's sake, don't read our comments, they'll only make you cry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goji Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 For god's sake just don't watch the vids, they'll only make you cry. Rather cry now then later once money is spent that cant be refunded. Expectations are massively high, this is the last game in the trilogy, no more after that so its only expected for people to be a bit tense when bits of info trickle down. In Bungie's defense, I think they are "handling" this a bit better than with Halo 2. I appreciate the teasers and the vidoc that has come out, it shows parts of the game without revealing actual story, which I am cool with. Simply put the vidoc was boring save for the campaign sequences which I'm sure the great majority was waiting for. I'm hoping and waiting for better. I'm holding out for a hybrid engine that brings the best of both the Halo and Halo 2 engine together... I'm hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goji Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Graphics will be great period. From what was seen in the vidoc, I can only imagine how things will render in HD, I'm excited. Seriously though, what was it that sets Halo apart from other games? The story is by no means revolutionary, its how the game plays and feels (engine/graphics). This is for me what gives Halo the legs to run and be the great game that it is. Story cant say much on that, thats under lock and key. Bungie is known for taking things that were initially published as part of the dogma and taking them out again, so the universe is in constant flux. Multiplayer will be awesome for two reasons, A. It's Bungie (they are KNOWN for multiplayer games) and B. MS and Bungie depend on it. After what Halo 2 has proven, why would they drop the ball on something so key to the games success? After that, whats left? Not meaning to be rude or smug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magik Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I've actually seen few posts relating to graphics in this thread unless it was out of confusion about what someone said. But there has been lots of talk about engine (AI, physics, etc) which doesn't make any sense at all. This vidoc has very little to no indication on what the final game's engine will be like. It's simply not meant for that. What was shown was pre-alpha, not even alpha! So I'm not really sure why people are stressing about that so much, ah, who knows. :whistle: Anyway, I think it's very interesting how Brutes were fighting along side Covenant there and how (i forget her name) was hand-cuffed with 343 guilty spark there. Haha, I had almost forgot about that happening in Halo 2. Exciting stuff :D. Also, that one weapon that the 'chief' brute was using (looked like a cross between a needler and a carbine) was pretty interesting... maybe that is the new needler? :o The 4-grenade thing is pretty intriguing too, although, I wouldn't be surprised if it's completely scrapped for the final game. I'm still leaning towards the shield-grenade-thing that we saw in the monday night trailer being what the X-button does. But who knows! Anyway, I enjoyed the vidoc because I'm a fan of the Halo universe. I don't play it just for the multiplayer like many self-proclaimed 'halo fans' do; the casual fans. For those that do fall under that category, quite obviously, this video was not really meant for you. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gfunk4life Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I know... i hate hearing them scream when i kill them. Wait... How come the brutes were killing the grunts in last level of halo 2 if they are still part of the covenant? at the end of halo 2 the covenant was replacing there back bone(the Elites). and some Grunts went with elites. The Covenant Civil War (The Great Schism)In 2552, part of the Ninth Age of Reclamation in the Covenant calendar, the Covenant splintered in a civil war after the High Prophets replaced the Elites with Brutes in most military positions after the assassination of the High Prophet of Regret at the hands of the Master Chief. The remaining Hierarchs claimed the Elites could no longer guarantee their safety, and the increased strength of the Brutes could, yet this undermined the foundation of the Covenant and rendered the Elites in many ways redundant - something they couldn't handle. Currently the "loyalist" forces include the Prophet Hierarchs, Brutes, Jackals, Drones, and some Grunts, which are commanded by the Prophet of Truth. The "separatists" are led by the Arbiter and include the Elites, Hunters and most of the Grunts, and at the end of Halo 2 it appears that they have formed an uneasy truce with the United Nations Space Command troops on Delta Halo. Engineers (not seen in either of the games) are not part of either side, but are used extensively by the Covenant, as they are content to just fix things. Despite the uneasy truce between the Arbiter's troops and the UNSC forces on Delta Halo, there is still extensive conflict between the remainder of the UNSC and all members of the Covenant, particularly on and around Earth and at the Forerunner world of Onyx. Although the civil war is the largest revolt to date, there have always been groups that disagreed with the Prophet-dictated Covenant doctrine. A heretical group led by an Elite known as Sesa 'Refumee briefly controlled a Forerunner station in the atmosphere of the gas giant planet of Threshold, the planet around which the first Halo (Installation 04) in Halo: Combat Evolved orbits. The new Arbiter killed the Heretics as one of his first duties in 2552. The Grunts have also rebelled at one point in the Covenant's history. Elites have a strong warrior culture, similar to that of the medieval Japan; they fight for the glory of combat and to uphold the Covenant Oath. Elite names with the suffix "-ee" are used to denote warriorhood. Note that in-game, almost no Covenant characters are given actual names; all Covenant characters are referred to by their rank or position. Several Covenant characters are given names in the Halo novels.Elites are typically promoted on the number of enemies they have killed and casualties inflicted on the opposing force, meaning that a single gold Elite may have slaughtered thousands before attaining that rank. The energy sword, an ancestral weapon, continues to be a favorite weapon for high-ranking Elite warriors, and is limited only to their use. As shown in the Halo Graphic Novel, energy sword fighting styles and duels have been developed, including styles based around wielding two separate blades. Respectful but authoritative commanders, Elites rarely fail to elicit a strong bond of loyalty with their troops: it was noted that Elite Arbiters suppressed the Grunt Rebellion and tamed the Hunters, and these two races remain faithful to the Elite when they are cast out of the Covenant. In the original Halo game, the Elites speak in their own untranslated language, which sounds like deep, throaty warbling and is the result of playing digitally modified sound clips of Sergeant Johnson's backwards. In Halo 2, the Elite speech is translated into English due to improved UNSC translation software (despite the fact that their mandibles are physically unfit to produce such exact acoustic language). Humans have also developed derogatory nicknames for Elites, mainly "squid face" and "split-lip", while Elites believe that only things of importance are named. However, they refer to the Master Chief as "the Demon" to denote his immense success against the Covenant in battle, as he has had hundreds of victories against the Covenant and escaped with thousands of kills, as stated by Zuka Zamamee in Halo: The Flood, implying that the Master Chief is an evil and supernatural spirit. Some Elites believe that the role and success of the SPARTANs is that of an Elite, as SPARTANs are "stronger, faster and more aggressive fighters. They fight more like Sangheili, even serving the same purpose. Able to inspire discipline and tenacity through the ranks." (Conversations from the Universe booklet) Elites believe that SPARTANs are a fully different class of warrior, and in some ways this is true. Inititally, Elites labelled all humans as inferior, but between (or near) the events of Halo 2 it was stated, "Even the smallest of them throw themselves at us in battle; if only the Unggoy were as dedicated." (Conversations from the Universe Booklet) This could imply that during the war, humans have earned the grudging respect of the Elites. GruntsThe basic infantry unit of the Covenant, Grunts are the lowest beings in the Covenant hierarchy. They present little threat individually, but are dangerous in large numbers. Grunts, known as Unggoy (which means "monkey" in Tagalog[3]) in the Covenant language, are the workhorses of the Covenant. They serve as common laborers across Covenant controlled space. Short, stocky, and relatively slow because of their rebreathers, they will often panic when faced with superior forces. However, if they are being led by an Elite, they will stand and fight. It should be noted, that Heretic Grunts do not show fear and continually attack the enemy, even if the lead Elite dies. Despite their obvious cowardice, they are extremely large in numbers and breed rapidly, and - when cornered - can attack with suicidal desperation. They often mutter or shout out hilarious dialogue in-game. Grunts are usually armed with single handed weapons, like plasma pistols, needlers, and plasma grenades (which they regularly and accurately throw), although the Arbiter can give his Grunt allies a Plasma Rifle and Brute Plasma Rifle, Magnum, Fuel Rod Cannon, and even Rocket Launcher even though they never typically use one. Grunts are also encountered carrying, mounting, and using plasma cannons, operating Ghosts, and operating Shade plasma turrets. Their homeworld is a frozen, swampy planet with a methane atmosphere and naturally occurring pillars of fire. Because they breathe methane they are forced to rely on a large, bulky SCUBA-like "rebreather" system in order to survive in oxygen atmosphere areas - which, unfortunately for the Grunts, are almost everywhere in Covenant society, since no other Covenant race breathes methane. In the Halo novels, Grunts being shot by human assault rifles would catch on fire and eventually explode due to the methane in their tanks being set alight. This feature has not been seen in the games, for obvious reasons as Grunts are one of the most numerous enemies. The Grunts are approximately 4' tall, which does not give them any confidence when facing humans, though they lose most of their fear when using a plasma turret or a vehicle. In spite of their low rank in the caste, some Grunts have been trained with the bulky fuel rod guns and have been seen wearing black or silver reinforced armor, implying that they are Special Ops. This does not hold with classic Covenant operation, but it seems to be the case. Because of their aforementioned tendency towards panic, disarray, and dying, the Grunts are usually herded as cannon fodder and directed by one or more of the higher caste, normally an Elite. If the higher-ranking Covenant member leading the group is killed, the Grunts will usually scatter. They will also run away when an enemy wields a superior weapon, such as an Energy Sword, (also known as the Plasma Sword) in the grunt's view. Somewhere in the history of the Covenant, the Grunt Rebellion took place; possibly in the Age of Doubt. An Arbiter was created to deal with the threat. Grunt culture has largely been erased by their incorporation into the Covenant, and they obey most of the other Covenant races out of fear because they have no political power in the Covenant. However, within the Grunt community, there is a strong hatred of most other species, particularly Jackals, (as evidenced at one point in Halo 2 during the Sacred Icon level) and it has been stated that the Grunts have hopes for a particularly heroic, strong, tall Grunt to one day become the savior of their kind and set them on the path to freedom by another Rebellion and the return to their homeworld. They are still used by the Covenant as cannon fodder as evidenced in the Halo 2 level, Gravemind, but they have also sided with the Elite-led separatist faction for unknown reasons, possibly their beliefs of an afterlife, or their hatred and rivalry for Jackals, or the Elites simply commanded and Grunts obeyed. Some examples of Grunt names are Yayap, Linglin, Gagaw, Zawaz, and Mehmep. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_%28video_game_series%29 and yes i did read all this i need a life :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconboy Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 anyone that knows me, knows that im not exactly the biggest halo fan, but even i couldnt help but get tingly where they showed the first shots of the brutes from H3, that transition from H2 gameplay to H3 was so well done and nicely built up. If the final product looks even half as good as the models in the doc, count me in! H3 will be a system seller! Yeah dont judge the game too harshly on just the video, they have a lot of time to go. And they are trying to hook us on by having these docs about little aspects of the game- the same way they had docs about supes returns and king kong and had them centered around small things like how they got supes to fly and the hair on king kong! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magik Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Miranda Keyes?Yea, I think that's her! :)There were a lot of new weapons in the map. I spotted something of a sort of Covenant shotgun. Also the thing you were talking about as well--it looked like the cov sniper but they were automatic shots spurting out real fast. Yea, there were a lot of new weapons that I must have missed. I'm gonna have to watch it a couple times over to really catch everything. The human shotgun seemed a bit more powerful than it is in Halo 2. Also, one of the elites had two swords in his hand, I don't remember if that ever happened in Halo 2 campaign, but that's definitely the first that I can recall. Maybe that is hinting at dual-sword-wielding? Heh, kind of pointless since it is a one-hit-kill but the depleting 'energy' on the new energy swords in Halo 3 may help give some reason to why dual-wielding would be in there. I did not notice the covenant shotgun. I will definitely look for it when I watch the video again later today. I also, at first glance, thought it was the new cov-sniper, but AFAIk, they did not get rid of the cov-sniper and it shoots way too fast to be a sniper. So I think it's the new and improved needler since they made a big deal out of how it's been de-nurfed for Halo 3. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, hell, what was the point of the video other than to show the game off at its current state? Do you think they're going to show something that they're not pleased with? Obviously not, since they didn't show a ton of graphics, and that seems to be the key area of concern with a lot of people. What they focused on were the Brutes and the A.I. behavior behind them, which Bungie hopes will immerse people into the game more. So, tell me -- why can we not be critical of the main area of this video? Obviously they felt they were at least far enough along with the A.I. to show it off and brag about it. What's wrong with being concerned about it? There's nothing wrong about being worried about where the game is headed after seeing the video, just as there's nothing wrong about being excited about where it's headed, which obviously you are.

Now I'm not trying to rile anyone up or anything, but what I am seeing is that everyone that liked the viddoc is seemingly trying to get those that were not impressed or concerned with the viddoc to like it. While I myself am a huge halo fan (IMO its one of the best pieces of SCI-FI fiction I've ever seen), I can see where others are coming from. Some people just have really high expectations and that is ok. Sure maybe alot of times it ends in dissapoinment but always striving for something better is an admirable quality. We could sit here and argue all day about this and still never come to an agreement. I have everyones views whether they be pro vidoc or not and have to say that I can generally agree on both sides pointed out. Just my two cents, hope I dont enrage too many people.

magik Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 So, tell me -- why can we not be critical of the main area of this video? Because what was shown was pre-alpha. I don't care if you're critical about it, but (to me at least) it doesn't make sense to base your criticism on this video, when this video's intention wasn't meant to show off the graphics/enginge/AI.When the vidoc about graphics/engine/AI comes along, then you have a right to criticize. As of now, however, it just seems to me that you're just trolling. Obviously they felt they were at least far enough along with the A.I. to show it off and brag about it. What's wrong with being concerned about it? Not quite. As I already said, the main point of this video was to show some insight on the Brutes and how they are a much deeper race than we first saw in Halo 2. Focus was on storyline in the Halo universe. Not the technical capabilities of the game thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayepecks Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 magik, if those are your "rules" for being critical, then my "rules" say you're not allowed to be excited since it's "pre-alpha." You're not allowed to be excited about a game that you don't know if it will be good or not -- it's pre-alpha, you don't know how good it'll be, regardless of Bungie's track record. See? It's not hard to be petty. :laugh: And please don't tell me I'm trolling when you and a few other people here go into the Playstation 3 section and bitch and moan about how it's not a good system (or at least imply as much). I'm not trolling here. I'm looking forward to Halo 3, and I own a 360. Me being critical of the game doesn't make me a troll. Me not liking the previous two games doesn't make me a troll. And don't give me this BS about how it didn't show-off the A.I. They were bragging about the new Brute A.I. which has them acting more cohesively. Am I not "allowed" to be critical of that? In summation: be quiet and let people have opinions. If you disagree, by all means, disagree. But don't tell me I'm not "allowed" to have opinions because you say so.

Grow up, man. I'm excited about what is to come in the single player campaign, story mode. Since I've been following the halo universe ever since Halo 1. The story has always intrigued me. It's ridiculous to tell me not to get excited about the continuation of a story that I find interesting. They showed very little to no AI, but they did talk about it. You fail to realize that and that is your own problem. Don't accuse me of trolling unless you can back it up. Why are you telling me to be quiet... when all I did was disagree? Try listening to yourself and stop being such a hypocrite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
