Halo |OT9| One Final Effort Is All That Remains

Larger version of the shot:

Definitely looks like sand.

The ground texture will definitely bother me. I'm surprised they went with this aesthetic for the remake, they really got creative with the remakes in anniversary.

Not bitter, just unsweetened
Wait, is that a kill cam in CTF? I thought it was only in Dominion. Or did they play 2 matches.

Sorry I'm a bit out of it as of late. My Grandfather died yesterday, so I've not been current.



Could just be a dirt road.

Also sand does not immediately mean no river. (Neither does an "arid" environment either).

Same game

Notice on kill cam shot it says "bravo06 scored for your team" and the other screen says "bravo06 captured the flag"

I'm gonna pulse grenade the shit out of it.

Pulse grenades for everyone!

I'm trying to think about how they're going to make vehicles fun when way more things can stun it. Shortening the pistol's life and the Operator mod will certainly help, but there's still a potential of 8 players with pistols coming after you.

1 pulse per loadout (sauce: listening to podcast)
but...



Use the Grenadier Tac Package = 2 Pulse nades

but...
lose the ability to carry 2 primaries

the meta game guys.

Wait you only get one Pulse? Hmmm... damn. I wonder if you can throw a grenade while your boltshot is charging like you can with the PP. :) That would be awesome cuz you can use the pulse to knock someone's shields down to make your boltshot have a slightly longer effective range. :)

Dexterity will more than make up for not using Firepower (rather use Mobility) especially when you can carry a headshot-capable Pistol/Mauler as a secondary (Boltshot) ;]
 
One thing about Halo that has always been great is the vehicle controls. Ever since first hopping in the Hog in Halo 1 I've been hooked. The way the left stick drives and the right stick looks is genius. There have been some changes that I don't like such as: the paper thin vehicles in Reach and the gun overheating. I can't believe that there is a mech in Halo now but I'm not too worried. I am sure the mech will work fine.
 
Can anyone who has finished downloading the video from the press site upload to Mediafire or Zippyshare? My progress has pretty much stalled :(

I'm actually really interested in seeing how the Mantis plays...

I'm still holding our for a Promethean Chopper though.

If I can somehow acquire a sunday pass as well I would totally stay for one more day. I wish I could do all 4 days.

Ask in the NYCC OT thread and then check Ebay as well. Where there's a will, there's a way
 
I can't wait to use MechaKyleJ on Valhalla even after it runs out of ammo and I'm charging in it with no shields or health. When all you have left is an empty mech? Curbstomp the shit out of any man or vehicle you can find.
