View Full Version : Halo 2...prepare to hunt in November ??

This is from a reliable source. But still, its JUST a rumor at this stage... Is Microsoft pulling a fast one on the competition? I'm hearing rumors that Halo 2 is in its final stages and is preparing for some heavy BETA testing for the rest of the summer and into the Fall to get it ready for its November 20 (At the latest.) release onto the Xbox.

Now that you have been given a moment to rejoice, remember that November is when most XBOX owners will lose their XBOX Live subscriptions and have to renew to play Halo on XBOX Live.

300,000 Plus new subscribers for a year? Smart thinking Microsoft.

To justify this release will most likely be a statement saying they finished it in time for 'The Christmas season' which of course is brilliant, but thats just a cover story.

this would all be cool if it was a game like Malice.


BUT................................... a game like Halo doesn't need this publicity stunt!


Infact, it could only hurt sales. Don't you realize that we are talking about Halo?


all Microsoft had to do was announce this game as a November release at E3 and pre orders would have gone through the roof......

Microsoft isn't stupid....... You don't play games with a game like Halo (No pun intended). If the game could have come out this November, they would have said so to beging with.............


use your HEAD next time you read cr*P like this.

Hummmmm I wonder. Right now though I really woud not be suprised. However, I do think its unlikely.:eek:

I doubt it is as much of a publicity stunt than it is a matter of timing. Chances are Microsoft has conversations like this with Bungie:

MSoft: We want Halo 2 in November
Bungie: It won't be done until January
MSoft: You must have misheard me. We said November
Bungie: Look, we just told you that...
MSoft: Let me phrase this differently. If we don't have Halo 2 by november, then Bungie will cease to exist.
Bungie: November it is.

Actually I doubt that happened but it is possible :) Regardless November is the best release date for a hit game, especially when it means MS would retain most of their XBL subscribers just for halo 2, plus get new subscribers on top of that. By the time January rolls around people are tired of spending their money and you wouldn't see near the sales of halo 2 as you would if it has a pre-christmas release.

Sounds like something Microsoft would say, Kraft :)

And also, if you make it come out just before the majority of XBL subscriptions run out, people will get a small taste of the game and that will make XBL sales scream. And obviously, the game is going to sell great at any time, but Holiday season will show a HUGE increase in sales of all games, so that would be the ideal time to release the game.


Oh well

Wishful thinking never hurt anyone...:D

Borka, that would never hurt Halo 2's sales. If anything it would be a day of rejoice and heaven for gamers. There would tons of people flooding the stores. No matter when the release date is for Halo 2, there will be massive sales. The later the game comes out though, the less sales. This game is beyond the level of hype, this game is at the level of godlike. Nothing will hurt its sales but delays.

If it is true though and Bungie have implemented everything they want, well by the release date, then that would be so awesome.

07-16-2003, 06:31 PM
well think about this, maybe bungie would release halo 2 in november, but the game wont be completed. the game would be completed upon downloadable contents. so who knows. but i'd rather have a game that is completed all together

07-16-2003, 06:35 PM
2004 sounds like a perfect date to me, but this christmas is even better, but I want Halo 2 to be finished with no flaws, so it can be the best fps of all time!:D

I think november 15th would be the perfect release date. I mean they have had sumthin big on the 15th for 2 years now... y not 3?

Exactlly what i was thinking man... Xbox, Xbox Live, Halo 2....that would be a smart move...plus everyone will get home...pop in halo2...and up will come a message "You need to resubscribe to Xbox Live"....heh...

07-16-2003, 08:52 PM
I would rather the game be done and not pushed to a early release date,that could really hurt the sales if the game has flaws more than waiting til 2004.

07-17-2003, 12:14 AM
That'd absolutely suck if they rushed Bungie into putting this game out prematurely. Hopefully this is untrue, because if they push for a November release chances are it will feel rushed, and be missing some great things.

games like Counterstrike, Vice City, Top Spin, Amped 2 and PGR 2 are enough to satisify my needs.


you guys are sounding like MS needs Halo 2 to come this year or they will cease to exist..............


w/ or w/o Halo 2, MS still has the best titles coming out this holiday season and there simply is no reason to rush Halo 2.

First, for who have seen the 15 mins demo of Fable, you should know that this game is almost in the final stage. I got a feeling that this one will be out this year. :cool:


And for Borka105, i was report something from other Xbox fan sites, that wasn't me writing this.

here real source : Xbox 365 Dot Com who has seen the 8 min in game demo of halo? that looked done? i don't think you can really tell just by demo, but does n e one know when bungie is going into beta testing? they are probly nearing completion of a full game, full of bugs

08-06-2003, 01:31 PM
same thing i said. You know halo2 isn't coming out in 2/2/2004 cause they're either gonna come out with it at christmas or 5 months after christmas.

I saw the 8 minute demo like a hundred times. I think its done to. If you look at my thread it says pretty much the same thing on here.

Hugopolo

They could have been done with that part of that level you it takes more than 8 mins to finish a level plus there are more levels they might not be done with

good thinking, i never thought of it, but they siad when its done, and maybe "done" IS a month after christmas, but i think i am going to agree with you, it will probly come out in the summer

*I'm hearing rumors that Halo 2 is in its final stages and is preparing for some heavy BETA testing for the rest of the summer and into the Fall to get it ready for its November 20 (At the latest.) release onto the Xbox.*


I don't think that is reliable information at bungies homepage it said that it would be finished when it is finished and that they are sticking to their policy of not telling the public of release dates. It also isn't going to be Beta tested. The only people who are going to be testing demos are selected employees of Bungie.

Sorry to rain on yalls parade.

So what is the reliable source that you think halo 2 is coming out in november. You haven't told us yet. It would rock if it came out in november. But it probaly won't be completely finished. Many people will have to download it from xbox live, or get it from a friend a XBL downloadable content disc or they could get it from the OXM disc. Actually it would be alright if halo 2 came out in november, or I think they should give it another month into december because that is when it will sell best. also bungie said they wanted Februruay but I bet microsoft is going to push them for a earlier release. I hope it comes out in november. So how I'll get all the downloadable stuff somehow

08-07-2003, 01:52 PM
Wow, you guys sure know how to ignore the most important thing. Bungie announced the game won't release in 2003, so stop hoping.

whether it comes out november 20th or like january 20th makes no difference to me..It would just give me something to look forward to and would enshure that the game is not rushed.

08-29-2003, 05:34 PM
Releasing Halo 2 in november wouldn't be a stupid idea at all(duh).
Reasons:
1.November is the perfect time for people to renew their Xbox Live subscriptions; this gives the customer even MORE of a reason to not miss out.
2.If Halo 2 is released in January, many people will still have backlashes from Christmas(Quanza, and whatever the cr*p else people celebrate)....people will basically be out of money for a while.
3.GOOD GOD, MAN! Its Halo! Who wants to wait the extra few months??!?!

There will be a demo out for Halo 2 by Christmas and that's it. I don't want them to rush this game and ends up being screwed up. March 3, 2004 is fine.

lotec16
09-06-2003, 12:31 PM
There won't be a playable demo by the public, it's way to big of a game to do that, thats like a AA game might do that, but this is a AAA game times 5!

I guess what they're saying is if a product is rushed then it may not be as good. Then again they could be saying that there are so many hot titles coming out that Halo2 would be affected by the stiff comp. I think it should come out when it is perfect and prepared to take over the seat as the best game ever.

MS wont die if it takes a little longer to come out...I mean I love Halo alot i mean i barely get enough time to get on my computer cuz im on my xbox playing halo and soul calibur 2 with some mech assault.

I'd rather, though, have the game be perfect, and january may be the best time to come out with it, considering us kids get birthday money, and january people will be too broke to get it, and more chance of me getting it....

Anyway, Halo 2 is gonna rock and im willing to wait paitenly for it, just as i wait paitenly for Bungie to claim world domination!!

Stygard
10-03-2003, 06:26 PM
My vote is for November. Microsoft has got more class than to send out an unfinished game. Other companies however( Blizzard and Diablo II). Microsoft realizes if Halo2 fails in any way they are just opening the door for other consoles to make up ground. Halo and XBOX are synonomous withFPS. Bungie has alot of pressure to have aamazing and finished game by November. Microsoft could make them very happyy...

AC/DC Halo Man
10-03-2003, 09:27 PM
First of all, Diablo 2 is not a company, its a game by the company you mentioned which would be Blizzard. You are retarded. And November being a release date would be to early for this game. Halo 2 is still in the process of making the game perfect, so when it comes out, it'll be worth the wait.

Stygard
10-04-2003, 01:12 AM
Retarded seems like a word to big for your limited thirteen year old volcabulary.
When you understand how to apply the word corectly perhaps they will let you into Junior High. Being retarted means having diminshed mental capacity, like yourself for example. When I refered to Blizzard and D2, I was talking about the ****ty job they did with that game, releasing it before it was ready. Of course you were still feeding from your mother's milk when that game came out While I did definetly did not think "Diablo II" was a company, you might have thought yourself clever. Next time you want to insult someone, go find a pre-school student, you might not embarass yourself.

AC/DC Halo Man
10-04-2003, 03:22 AM
First of all, im never embarassed, secondly, my "13 year old vocabulary" is alot bigger than you precieved possible. Oh, and if i wanted to insult preschoolers i dont see the problem in insulting you for that role, you maybe older, but you sure dont act it. If you think your more mature than me, and you told me what you did, i'd think twice, so watch how u speak to people, i really didnt mean anything but two can play at insulting.

AC/DC Halo Man
10-04-2003, 03:31 AM
oh not to mention, if you dont want people thinking that when you say "Other companies (like blizzard and Diablo II)" You mean both of them as a company, thang reword your sentances, im 13 and i know. I dont really want a fight, yet i will defend pride and confidence, if you try and tear it down i will fight for it. Your insults really didnt strike a blow because i know im more mature than you tell me i am. So when you think next time an 8th grader has the vocabulary and maturity of a preschool child, your mistaken, so plz, only say things you know are true.

AC/DC Halo Man
10-04-2003, 03:39 AM
Ya know, i keep checking your post, and im bugged by what you say. D2 didnt come out till 1998 so i definatly wasnt still on my "mothers milk". If i was one of such "Low mental capacity", tell me why my vocabulary and ability to handle this situation more maturely seems to be exceeding that of your own mental capacity. So when you wanna insult some one, insult some one on your own very low brain level, so you wont embarass your self. Oh and if your anticipated reaction comes out, "I will insult people on my own brain level, but your to low for that" or something in anyway as such, let me tell you now you are one sad person and obviously u didnt get the message.

Stygard
10-04-2003, 05:08 PM
look kid, enough is enough. With age comes experience, the fact that I was playing original Nintendo before you were born doesn't give me the right to insult you. You are obviously smarter than I assumed. If you really want to know I do, I am a unniversity student studying to be a Lutheran Minister. There think twice! Be cool, stay in school!!! Age is something I should not fault you for, you have no choice in the matter.

To the general audience: I still think that halo2 should come out in november, I very well may not, but as far as markerting would go, November would be genious. ::D

First, i dont need a school lesson from you. I started the sentence with "And" because if i kept going it would be considered a run on sentance. You are not my teacher, or my parent for that fact, so plz dont bother me on my grammer. My argument was with Stygard, not with you and it was ended. Dont start another.

Dark Prophet
10-15-2003, 11:51 PM
if you were not in the conversation, stay away from it. im sure you need to read the whole argument to get whats going on so keep to your own business, unless your invited into it.

Your just giving a reason for people to hate or become annoyed with you.

Stygard
10-16-2003, 12:01 AM
Strangely enough I am backing up AC/DC here. You can start a complete sentence with "and".
That is beside the point, he and I honourably came to an understanding and the argument is over.

The real issue here is that as October drags on, the likelyhood (as I perhaps hopefully predicited) that Halo2 would come out in November is growing smaller.

Soon we will know fo sure that I was wrong when Microsoft doesn't release Halo2. Oh well, sure was nice to dream....

AC/DC Halo Man

Right you are and i just pmed you back so check it out later. And your right, we are abusing this thread.

Halo2s probability of coming out this november is small, but with every small opportunity, there is still that small chance of it happening. For you and your dreams, i hope it does, and if it comes out sooner, the better. I just hope coming out sooner means it will be perfect.

Stygard
10-16-2003, 12:32 AM
Despite my dreams I would want it to be perfect, rather than sooner. But still, as soon as it is perfect, the Master Chief and I will have a date, a very long date.

u wouldnt mind if i joined would ya? If it comes out in november, then its as perfect as they could make it, bungie and MS arent stupid (or to uneducated) enough to do a stupid stunt as such. So if it comes out, great, if it doesnt, they're making it perfect, and i can wait, i guess.

damn! me and car guy are catching all of this ***** over two posts we made. I don't know what makes any of you think that I don't know what they were arguing about, but I was one of the first ones to reply to this thread and have read everything since. You don't have and shouldn't expect to have a private agruement inside of the forums without having other people comment on it.
If carguy and I don't have the right to comment on posts then none of you have the right to scold us. We were both kidding which was obvious to anyone with half a wit, but evidently some of you don't have that.
I'm glad that you could all work out your squabble without resulting in bloodshed, but you need to give us some slack. If you can't do that I suggest that you get some hemroid ointment, take a prozac, shut the heck up, and then take a nap.

first tuff eagle, i admitt we were a little jumpy, but, however, typing is not an easy way to tell if your kidding and if you go insulting my wit or Stygards wit, back down boy cuz we wont stand for it.

Yes it is good we solved the problem, but u are just starting more by calling us "Half Witted". So if you want a fight u have one, but i suggest u apoligize, and on top of that im sorry my self.

TuffEagle88
10-16-2003, 06:15 PM
alright I appoligize and definately don't want to see another non-halo related arguement, especially be responsible for starting it. Off topic arguements really cheapen the threads, and turn them into an episode of jerry springer. You are right that it isn't always easy to tell if someone is joking, but I would like to mention that both of us had smilies in our posts. Alright I'm through, back to Halo 2.

Its almost Nov. and there hasn't been a release date anounced or any clue that it is gonna come out soon, so I'm gonna bet that it is still gonna come out around March to April

Thank you and i am sorry as well. I hate jerry springer any way so....

...back to halo 2 in november probability.

Well, if it comes out in november, it better be perfect, and if it isnt, Bungie is gunna hit the bottom of the drain, and fast. MS wont be affected, they will secretly brush it off, pretending bungie never existed. bungie right now is strongly depending on Halo 2 because other than halo, alot of their games suck. So in conclusion, whether it comes out in november or not is not the concern for me, its if its gunna be any good.

bungie cant afford this kinda downfall

Are you still here? Well since you are let's do this. I don't understand what contridict means. Are you trying to say contradict? If so there is nothing contradictory about my statement. I was simply suggesting that if someone could please provide me with a reason for this thread to continue it's meager existence without a thread (no pun intended) of evidence. That's all sir. There is no need to be so harsh as to wish I no longer participate in what brings me so much joy. There is no need to type such strong words when there is no way they could be proven whether you could make an individual leave any situation. Let's grow up and at least pretend we're adults. K? ;)

All you do is bring more problems to this thread that we dont need. And yes, i made a typo error, so what? U are not a teacher to me or a parent in that fact so lay off. U dont need to go around correcting everything everyone says. Yes there will be typo errors, and yes this thread may not have much a point but it can change into something else, y destroy it? You are just one of those people that try to bring everyone down to your immaturaty level by causing problems and being an annoying spell check person. No one cares, niether should u.

I hear you sir. There is no harm intended in my statement. I guess I just released some frustration about having to wait so long for this game. However, I am allowed to state my opinion and if anyone disagrees by all means that too is their right. I encourage people to disagree often times disagreement leads to solutions. Now, we can discuss this issue in an adult fashion or we need not communicate any further. Please enjoy the rest of your day sir. :)

I think he was bugged because of the way he presents himself. I learned early on that the mods and the participants on this site are serious. Therefore, when an individual comes off as being less than that he or she will be addressed immediately. Opinions vary so much. They are like a- holes, evreyone has one. You say I shouldn't care, I say who are you to determine what I care about. Those are opinions. We should not be so sensitive to them. Instead maybe you or AC/DC can explain to me the point of this thread. Give me your opinion. Don't whine about what I wrote. We're bigger than that gentlemen. Have a nice day. :)

So again, sorry to burst any bubbles Sherlock.:p

If you want to discuss this like gentlemen, by all means, start up, im interested in what u have to say:)

I am certain that this game will not be out in November as I am sure most of us who are not immersed in denial are sure it will not be out in November. This thread is about Halo 2 hunt in Nov. Therefore, we know it's not possible. Subsequently, in my opinion this thread has become pointless. :)

Yea I agree. IMO, if you want to discuss something other than Halo 2 possibly coming out in November, which never will, but someone could be praying until December, then I think that you should perhaps create another thread or find another one to discuss whatever you want to talk about in. But, I also understand those who want to let this thread wander and become something else, but as of yet I have seen nothing come from the conintuation of this thread other than pointless arguements. ??????????? What to do? Whatever are we, poor souls to do??? :huh:

actually, when the halo2 preview came out ... it was awesome .. tons of 'OHHS' and 'AHHS' .. but a month later the same video was out online where u can d/l it .. if you look closely on some of the scenes it was different from what they showed on E3 ...

That would be pretty cool, be an elite, or a hunter or those big ugly monkeys. It looked to me that those things would be too easy to kill, but it looked awesome how they could jump on the warthog, and its really nice that the marines can drive now.

As long as the level will be good, playing as a covenant will be good. EX: I would hate playing as a covenant on Blood Gulch because I would rather play as a covenant on Sidewinder or a building

Your question? oh, the one about where you are or if the character selection is what the mods were? As far as I know of course there are several variations of the warthog, a few new cov. vechiles, a bunch of new weapons, new enemies, and you can now do combo melee attacks, but I think that we all knew this already. So what is your question?

Mods are usually custom skins players use in deathmatch. I think people are talking about wanting to play dm as elites and what not.

A mod, for PC gamers, can be anything that 'modifies' the original game. they are downloaded into the game's folders, and they can change anything-vehicle skins, character models, add new levels, enable multi-player in a single-play game, create NEW levels altoghter, create new missions, and so much more. Usually, mods from xbox LIVE! are generally useless....player skins and game saves...until they really utilize it like they did for Kola Cell, thats pretty much all we're gonna get.
