Bungie's Weekly Halo 2 Updates (Archived)

[Hugopolo]

They showed the brute holding his "slug gun" in the June OXM, and it looks pretty sweet. It has a blade on the back for making salads and such. It wasn't until this article that I am really starting to realize the amount of content that Bunige is holding back from us, new weapons, vehicles, and covies, oh my!

P.S. Ride the Pickle? Maybe hes talkin about Chief riding that covy cruiser hes jumpin towards in the Halo 2 intro trailer?

Or maybe there making Master Chief the tolkien gay guy on Halo 2...
:confused:

that would be funny if they had a gay mc movie with him doing funny crap if you beat the game on legendary like the video that you got to watch when you beat the game in the first one

[l Maximus l]

Well...there is a pink Master Chief, you know... ;)

[themoosearmy]

Or maybe there making Master Chief the tolkien gay guy on Halo 2...
:confused:
You mean Sir Ian McKellan?

[l Maximus l]

Man, I am, like always, pumped up to read the latest update...man, the agony of waiting!!!

[E Nomini Patri]

Hehe sorry I'm late, I was hanging out with Xero Cell (actually I am right now, too). But yeah, check it out to read about Carneyholes and Doombas!

[themoosearmy]

Finally there is confirmation of an Earth City based multiplayer map! I was hoping they would have one (and possibly even 4 of them!). Carneyholes are classic, if ever get to work on games, I will have carneyholes so i can dominate the rest of my dev team, muwahaha.

[l Maximus l]

DILLIGAF...I gotta remember that one :D

Short, but, sweet review!

[ghost 009]

I can't read it because my computer is a piece of crap and the update look like it is written in a font size 1 or something. They confirmed a earth based map a little bit a ago. I can't believe nobody else caght it. :confused: :hump: yaaawn I'll read it tommorow. tired as heeeeell

Urban Earth based map in multiplayer before this ? Where at?

I know there is a whole part of single player.

Man, Halo 2 is going to be so huge...planet Earth, several Halo rings...this game is going to friggin' PWN!!

Yeah I have a feeling the single player is going to be a lot better than any of us can imagine. Mainly because that is something bungie was criticized on before, I look for them to an extremely expansive campaign for MC to traverse.

Honestly, if people were critical towards Bungie regarding the Campaign in the first Halo, they seriously need to get a life. I mean, with the exception of "The Library", Halo has some of the most incredible worlds, maps, and all of the above. Seriously, even the second best game on XBox doesn't hold a candle to Halo's "The Library" map. No game shares such an incredible and epic gameplay, immersion, and presentation...not even close. Splinter Cell can take a huge back seat to Halo, IMO...that goes for Rainbow Six, Ninja Gaiden, and every other huge title. Nothing compares.

Yes, I'm a Halo fanboy ;)

I know we all think that max, but a lot of the cynics (err critics, err, same thing) hate some of halo's "repetitivness" (sp?) . I personall don't care, but there a lot out there who hate anything that doesn't have ub3r gr4f1x.

[E Nomini Patri]

Repetitiveness doesn't bother me, therefore I don't dislike any levels on Halo. The Library is just the result of a lack of development time so they could get the game out at the same time as the Xbox launch. So, there isn't any reason at all to blame them. The Library is a LOT of fun on Legendary. :)

it took me a long ass time to complete that level on legendary by myself. it was ghey, but i managed to pull through. right now, i can plow through that level with no problems. :cheers: <l33t> :)

[E Nomini Patri]

Wow, incredible update today! Lots of great stuff on environments and animation etc.! Get reading!

Walrus.

[l Maximus l]

I like how they are implementing different comments after you melee someone with a different weapon and actually have stats for it :D

Yes, finally a word on stats. I would love to have the lead in headshots on XBL, won't happen but we all can dream. Finally getting word on some things being completed, which I like.

Neither do I, but critics don't care if you only got 5 days to make a game, they think it should be perfect anyways. Hey, all Nintendo games are merely simple AI iterations (programming nomenclature for repetition) that we all can see, but I LOVE the NES.

[l Maximus l]

Yeah...I never thought I would ever say this, but, it sounds like Bungie has all of the big stuff done...and because of that, I'm pumped up that they're just finishing up the boring odds and ends :D

[No Fear 23]

damn...they gonna keep track of the weapons u used to kill? damn...to be honest. i dont care...just a simple kill/ death stats is ok for me. but i guess its a cool feature.

I know, this is exactly what I was hoping they would put in. Now, hopefully it will be put on your profile so you have off and online stats.

[l Maximus l]

hehe...I read the update before it was part of the archive here :D Seriously...this update was one of the best...proximity voice and over 15,000 lines of dialogue?!?!? DAMN!!!!! Halo 2 ALREADY pwnz... :D

[E Nomini Patri]

Okay, I updated the thread, sorry I'm late, I am running on 4 hours of sleep from the last 2 nights so I am out of it. Great update though, I love it!

[themoosearmy]

"i be havin a southern accent, yarrrr"-Sarge, RvB

That was a great update. Still trying to decide which is more baffling, the 15k lines of dialog code :yikes: or the 300 xboxs used for automated testing :yikes: .

[l Maximus l]

Exactly how is proximity voice going to work?

And, do you guys think it is mainly for the single player or the multi-player...or both?

[E Nomini Patri]

Within a certain radius of someone, you can (if talking requires you to press a button or not I don't know) say something and your armors speakers with project the sound ******ds and they will hear it.

And, do you guys think it is mainly for the single player or the multi-player...or both?

Multiplayer, because in Single Player you can just shoot a gun to "get the enemy's attention." ;)

So far, the XBL game si"ve played have not required a button to talk, but they all have speech that is limited to team only, but then again, maybe Bungie means that if you are close enough to someone, they will hear it, but otherwise, it's team only.

[Arcane]

Stats or no stats, Pree a button for speech or not. November 9th when the comes out i am getting regardless.

I think it would be cool to implement an Unreal Championship style of communication...where you can switch to a certain channel to talk to certain people.

I'll likely not use the communicator unless I'm playing CTF anyway.

Thats what I said when I first got XBL and started playing RS6:3, but the communicator is essential for communicating in the game. That goes from the lobby throught the game.

The only time I will use the communicator is if it's a small game going...like a 3 v 3...or a 4 v 4.....or a 2v2v2v2 game...

Seriously, my only peave with XBL is that everyone talks too much...it's pretty distracting. I tend to play silently unless communication is necessary. A good "heads up" is always welcome. Know what I mean?

[E Nomini Patri]

Too much goodness this week!

ya but sometimes you need to comminicate to know where the enemy is. I wanna just mute everyone in the room sometimes.

[l Maximus l]

ya but sometimes you need to comminicate to know where the enemy is. I wanna just mute everyone in the room sometimes.

Yeah, but, Bungie solved that issue with the new friend indicators. Instead of a green arrow showing where your buddy or buddies are, it will do much more. If my memory holds correct, there is a square around a customized symbol that is above your head (you can customize your own symbol, if you like). This square is blue when there is no shooting...but, when your buddy shoots, the square turns yellow...and the square turns red if your buddy is being shot at. Pretty sweet, huh?

My point in mentioning this is just another reason why communication isn't really necessary...much less now with this new feature.

As for the daily report, that was kick ass! Max had, by far, the most exciting information...he seems pretty amped about the new multi-player maps and modes...I dig it!

[themoosearmy]

Great Update! My favorite is the explanation of boarding the warthog, snipe his ass off right before he jumps in (that should be a sweet effect).

Talking about voice communication. I'd say little more than a "heads up" is necessary when coordinating attacks in CTF. Plus for giving props to your friend who just slung a head shot at the flag carrier two feet from base.

[E Nomini Patri]

Trisquids! It's another Weekly Update!

[l Maximus l]

Pretty good, but, not a ton of new info... and that one sentence must have had the word "CENSORED" 6 or 7 times! Damn!

[themoosearmy]

Yeah, I'm about to start a censored counter on the Halo 2 team, it prolly has more than a howard stern show on daylight television!

I'm so going to buy/take one of the Halo 2 displays from some store, they will certainly be bad-ass.

[E Nomini Patri]

Best line:

So far, there are 15,107 lines of combat dialog recorded and implemented, with just a little more to go in.

I know, dude...that's freakin' insane! Talk about stepping up the bar! It makes me wonder if there is a game that even comes close to that many lines of dialogue.

And, do you guys think that there will be female marines this time around?!

I would suspect there will be. I'd have no problem as long as they can kill covies. Although there is the side effect of nail-breakage and hair-tossling... ;)

15k+ of combat dialog means more marine chatter which is funny as hell to listen to.

[lotec16]

If every clip is a second long, thats 250 min of talking............... that is a lot.

[ShannonX]

i bet alot of the adventure games on the pc have that much or more dialogue.

[E Nomini Patri]

New update! Stop pinching my nipples!

[l Maximus l]

Damn! That was one huge update! Frankie out did himself this time :D Man, it sounds like things are coming along nicely...

[E Nomini Patri]

New update! Don't forget your shoes again Tyson... :eek:

[l Maximus l]

Man, another great update...short and sweet, Frankie said? Man, that one was pretty respectible in length...but, I guess compared to last week's, anything is shorter, as he stated in the beginning.

Interesting info...a new gametype for non-Live people...that could be interesting to see what's going on there. I wonder what it could be...maybe a Covenant Battle or something with four Spartans? Ah, who knows...whatever it is, it will likely kick some major ass :D

[N1ghtM4r3]

"We were >this< close from cutting one of our new gametypes. But I implemented it in six hours and now it’s essentially finished (read: harder to cut). It’s a gametype explicitly designed for those people who have friends but not live; something fun that 3-4 people can play."

"But this game is going to be damn damn fun, especially for people with just a single box and no Xbox Live."




Bots?

no, not bots.






anyways, i dont know why they posted at penny arcade. I dont know if they realized htis, but penny arcade HATES halo.

If you go on to read the forum, the first thing that is posted is some idiot saying "HEY! HEY! HEY! STOP MAKING threads!"


That made m quite angry, as their site was blessed with a thread form frankie, and instead they get upset.


Frankie should post here. He would get so much love, and i think zeroflaw will have an orgasm!



Stupid penny arcade, i like htem a lot less now....

[E Nomini Patri]

Frankie didn't ask to post the update there. That is why they are mad. But they are still stupid *******s anyways. Frankie posted there because Halo 2 will be playable at the PAX in August.

[E Nomini Patri]

Holy skyboxes and sombreros Batman! The new update is posted!

[l Maximus l]

Good stuff...especially the part where they were laughing their asses off about Penny Arcade! What a bunch of tards :D

(not Bungie, of course!!!)

[bostwick202]

What was up with the penny guys anyways.

[Stormlord]

The updates were a nice read. I drool at the fact that you can have a crappy broadband connection and still play with 16 people with no lag. That's a thumbs up since I have Comcast so I shouldn't really get lag, but when someone with a bad connection gets in the game, it's lag hell.

[lax_defense]

Sexy. Sombreros. Mmmm. Sombreros.

Sounds awesome. They mentioned something about some familiar maps. Am i sensing Blood Gulch?! God, I hope not.

[l Maximus l]

No mention of www.ilovebees.com either...

[lax_defense]

No mention of www.ilovebees.com either...

There doesn't have to be. If you pay attention, you'll notice that everything is talked about as being in "final stages" or its "crescendo." I'm beginning to think this bees thing may actually be true.

[themoosearmy]

Plus, the CENSORs are disapearing, and there is much talk of "old friends." Something which I suspected would get a lot more buzz.

[l Maximus l]

Was there not a weekly update yesterday!?

[l Maximus l]

Ah, I see it now...I love how there is going to be a ton of blood in this version. And, I really enjoyed the part where Frankie talks about how the marines react to very specific situations so perfectly. I can't wait!

[Stormlord]

The multiplayer seems to get better and better. I wish I could make a clan but with actual Halo vets, there's nothing worse than having inexperienced team members.

[themoosearmy]

There better be an update today...i'm anxiously awaiting it.

Exactly...I don't think Frankie could have been any more clear:

I'm back, and so is regular style weekly update stuff. Next week I'm gone again, in the Yucatan Peninsula. I may report from there. An update for conspiracy theorists: I've sorta been following the fuss – too busy to really get into it, but Halo 2 will still release on Nov. 9th in the US and most other places, and Nov. 11th in the UK. Nor will we release a playable demo, anytime soon. In fact, we're so busy with the game that there's no chance we'll even think about a playable demo until after Halo 2 ships. And that is official. It isn't happening folks. The game is however, happily on schedule for November 9th. As this week's update will demonstrate.


There's going to be a lot of crying in these forums for a few days :cry: :rofl:

Recently I read about the August 24th release. I thought it was kind of funny since Bungie is still posting updates on what they're adding to Halo. I just wish there was a demo for the public. Man even the E32k3 demo would do! :hump:

[E Nomini Patri]

Okay now I am all caught up, get reading!

[Peepers]

These updates are so nice, even though some of them don't have very many new things to say about the game.

I wish BBB would be as active in informing their fan base as Bunjie has been.

[l Maximus l]

Wow...worst. update. ever.

Now, I'm not normally one to complain, but, the only things I got out of reading that update was Bungie Princess's Hair Color, Dry wall repairs, refrigator leaks, and a picture of a pink Master Chief wearing lipstick.

Horrible :(

[ScorpionX]

Yea I know I don't think I got anything out of that, how can they even call that an update :-\

[E Nomini Patri]

I thought it was hilarious Max. Where's your sense of humor dude?

I agree, I wish they would have put a little more into it, but on the other hand they are in the beta phase. Right now they are colelcted jugunda amounts of data that will be used to tweak the game. They aren't gonna make any significant changes until after beta is done, and they get some substantial feeback from all of the testers in/out of house

Sweet!

[thAshAdyOne]

One last thing - A big shout out to the Fable team this week, as their game shipped to manufacture, and the first reviews started rolling in. It's getting great scores, and, speaking personally as somebody who never likes RPGs, I am loving it. Lots of action, and lots to explore, which is the way I like all my games

aww isnt that sweet?! this is making me so hyped up for the game...i just need to finish reading my books now

[l Maximus l]

Great update once again! It was shorter than the last one, but, that definately is helping me maintain my pumped-upness :D

[themoosearmy]

Great update, its great to see the game will finally be completed. I'm waiting on High res versions of the magazine screens. There were some sweet ones in GMR, but they were too small.

The music is done, thats a really good sign that the game is very near completion. I hope the stuff I sent in for the bonus DVD makes it in there, but right now I'm more worried about making Pitt's hockey team, so I'll prolly won't be back around until late monday.

I find it fascinating that Frankie can share so much information by writing so much and not give out a single spoiler or additional detail. Amazing! :D

Sorry I'm late on this, I just put up the last weekly update.

Bungie is going to start some sort of new weekly feature, so I will start something for that. It was a good ride, I can't wait to see what they will give us next!
