Whoa, I just discovered that there's a 35 minute video of the Beta on GiantBomb.

What the eff is up with the Warthog passenger's first person view in the beginning? It looks super sweet!

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but will it be like that in the Beta? If so, can we toggle it back to the old view? (By the way, I had to watch it with the sound off, so I don't know if it was clarified or not.)

That's a cutscene.

Nah, man. The beta has some good 'ole fashioned 3rd person Warthog driving. As for the 1st person view? Seems like an in-mission scene, similar to the ones in ODST.

(I doubt I was the first one to respond, but I guess intuition to look at crap on Tumblr might pay off :lol )

Wow, awesome luck on that!

On the other hand, I do wonder what he is talking about. Sounds like a cool little detail we can enjoy visually in the final game.

So I spoke with Tashi about this earlier today, but I am considering setting up a live stream tomorrow.

Though in order to do that I will need to go out and pick up a capture card (didn't have time today) and have it all set up first thing tomorrow morning before codes go out.

Is there even a decent interest in me setting up a live stream, or will everyone here be busy watching Tashi

 

[RebornYeti]

That's a cutscene.

Oh ok. I was sort of thinking that it could be a cutscene, but I wasn't sure because it was a video of the Beta. It kinda threw me off.

Thanks for the clarification.

 

[Thagomizer]

Couldn't you guys...I don't know...find something better to do over the weekend?

 

[zumphry]

Wow, awesome luck on that!

Thanks. I'm not ashamed to admit I'm shaking to see if I actually won or not. And I was just about to go to bed too! :lol

For what he's talking about, I can't wait to see it or all of the details they've crammed into Reach.

I could stream..it would have to be with a webcam but I can fiddle with it enough to were it looks decent enough to see what is going on.

I have nothing better to do :lol

Wont that add at least a touch of lag to your actual Halo-playing?

I messed around with mine a bit in Halo 3. It wasn't noticeable on my end.

I think you won? Is that thing in order from top to bottom or the other way? I don't see time stamps.
I see your name is the first from the bottom, I hope that's a good thing.

w00t

what, what?

 

[Plywood]

It's the new ARG, you post cryptic messages on video-game forums.

I think it's oldest from bottom up.

EDIT: I hope I'm not clogging up the thread with this. :lol

omg.

 

[Blueblur1]

Can't get past 0.8km... Been playing for three hours... Falling asleep...

 

[RdN]

i wanna watch

Watch it download?

Spoiler

I guess I'd do that.

:lol

0.8km is killing me. I've been stuck there for ages.

 

[darkressurection]

I can't sleep, the prospect of maybe getting a key from somewhere is too much to handle.:lol

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

So anyways, when do you F&F people expect your codes? Tomorrow will be a fun day here.. If a tad torturous.

How are you that good? 1.9 is killing me.. :lol

You are just begging for an avatar quote, aren't you? :lol

 

[big ander]

It's super awesome that rendered films are in the beta. I know Domino already has an insane amount of minute that he'll give to some people, but I've got some minutes too, so I can pick up some of his slack.
Here's one film I had tonight. Yes, that is a decent play for me.

What is this 1.9, .8km stuff? I am so confused right now and am loaded with pre beta anxiety because I don't want to miss out on anything. :lol

Damn some of those are full matches. Too tired now to watch but will in the morning.

 

[Striker]

Very nice.

The Waterfight video. Hope in the retail we get more reaction from the water; seems there's a strong lack of that in the video. I know, been discussed before, but blah.

Sorry but its hard to hear over all the commotion right now. What are you talking about here- obstacles and 1.9?

Edit: this is badass.

 

[Syracuse022]

Damn it blueblur, I had been jealously creeping over at bungie.net, mostly checking out Voc and Cocop's game history, but I managed to pull myself away. Now, though? Now that I've been shown where to find rendered videos? Fffffuuuuu----

Quake announcer?

Maybe not Quake but the announcer's voice distorted like that sounds like a game I can't put my finger on? Unreal Tournament?

fuck i dunno:lol

You need to press down immediately once you pass the top of the first one.

The new File search really rocks! So sweet!
