Everything We Now Know About Halo 2
Post everything we now know about Halo 2 here! I won't even get flamed for posting about Halo 2, YAY!!!Anyways, let's share every feature we now know. The newest one to me is (from the update) how grunts scurry around and hide behind rubble and elites are quick and hunters kind of charge through the level.
I posted this in another thread, but here's another look.Speaking of updates: Halo 2 Roundup Part 1
Yeah, I know. I was just trying to start up a good thread for the Halo 2 Forum. I guess this forum was built so the nOObs could post about it without us being annoyed.

As for the topic, yeah, that Battleground: Halo article was mostly on the money. It could have been more concise though. Anyways...

Who pissed in your coffee?
Noone, but I might take a dump on your pancakes if this doesn't get turned around. I said in the sticky thread to have whatever is new stuff to be put in here. Starwars and themoose have posted links throughout this forum that are basically 'catch-ups' on all the official news about the game.Originally posted by J4320

Anyways, hop over to Halo: Tru7h and Rec. for some scoop with Lorraine McLees about the Halo 2 cover for the Official Xbox mag
1st- UR ALL NOOBIES AHAHHAHAA
2nd- j/k
3rd- whens the magazine coming out for that link u sent us?
4th- umm wtf is with the **** on pancakes??!!?!
Ok this is all the stuff i know.
-phantoms are the new dropships for earth. they seem to deploy the covenant faster and holds more fire power and men
-Battle rifle (thats what every1 calls it) is a powerful accurate weapon with a good attack speed
-Smgs r inaccurate in far range but have super high fire rate and is powerful in close range. Also by pressing a button u can change it from having 1 smg in each hand or just using 1.
-Brutes are increadibly strong and seem to be like ape creatures that have steroids and guns taped onto their hands
-Grunts and Jackals look bigger and stronger.
-MARINES call kill for once its a miracle!
-Now different turrets on the back of the warthog
-Better AI constructs
-awsome graphics
-the dropships can blow up but are probably hard to destroy so u cant skip battles so easily
-u can do melee combos to do more dmg to ur enemies
-Jackals are still slow and get run over easily by warthogs
-New covenant transport ship
Well thats all i can remember right now lol thats alot eh
Ever wonder how MC is gonna throw grenades when he has two guns in his hands? I hope it just shows one of his guns go down then you see him throwing a grenade then he just takes his other gun out again.
Good question.umm wtf is with the **** on pancakes??!!?!
When you have two guns in Halo 2 you can't throw grenades. I wonder what the melee attacks (if you can while holding 2 guns) will be like.Originally posted by J4320

Battle as humans (SPARTAN Soldiers), vs alien ( covenant Elites ) in a ma$$ive online multiplayer battles. On modified maps from the Campaign mode, you and 11 friends vs 12 enemies battle it out complete with interactive air support from Pelican Warships and Phanton battle crafts, unbeleivable!
-Cooperative:
Once selected you get two options:System Link and Split Screen. Split Screen is the same as the original game, where you and a friend plow through the Campaign mode together on the same TV.

The vehicles of Halo 2:
Returning
- The Warthog
- The Scorpion Tank
- The Ghost
New Human Vehicles:
- The Gauss Warthog [3 pa$$engers]
- The Rabbit ATV [1 pa$$enger]
New Alien Vehicles:
- The Banshee Aircraft [1 pa$$enger]
- The Shadow a$$ault Vehicle [3 pa$$enger]
- The Wraith Tank [1 pa$$enger]
Some of the new multiplayer Levels:
Hot Zone:
An medium sized outdoor level, that closely resembles the New Mombasa level featured in the E3 Demo. Consisting of twisting streets, bridges, towering buildings ( some which can be entered, for great sniping spots ), staircases and ledges with turrets. Guaranteed to take over Blood Gulch as the new favorite CTF level.
Amazonia
A dark,lush jungle level that resembles the "Timberland" level of Halo PC, but a whole lot better looking and atmospheric. Rolling Hills dotted with tall, thick rooted trees and winding paths between shallow rivers.
Inner Sanctum
A level inside the belly of the UNSC Cruiser Renaissance. Small strobe-lit corridors interconnect two large multi-level hangars with ma$$ive pressure lock windows with breathtaking vistas of planet Earth. Turrets on the second level make getting on top a critical necessity.
Levels returning from Halo: Blood Gulch, SideWinder, Hang'em High. Additionaly 2 levels of Halo PC are also availible: Death Island and Danger Canyon.
pwn sig
Wow where did you get all of that info, I haven't seen that anywhere.
Post a link maybe?
You know this for sure? I've heard that before but didn't know what to believe. And what FatalMatt says is false.Originally posted by StarWarsFanMan

Yeah it is true, it has been said over and over by Bungie.Originally posted by J4320

Hey Matt, that stuff is all just a rumor. If it was true, Linkin Park wouldn't be a band anymore, because they would have been sued of their asses from the Non-Disclosure Agreement that Bungie makes everyone sign when they play/see Halo 2 in private.
but what if it is true, sounds good to me. Sounds cool to for halo2
Did they say the right trigger shoots the right gun and the left trigger shoots the left gun?Originally posted by StarWarsFanMan
