Halo Reach Reveal Thread - Matchmaking/Multiplayer Details Revealed

Wow, just played a semi-competitive match in Halo, first one in around a few months, man am I way out of focus, I'll need to get back up to my skill level (50) before the beta comes out if I want to own some kids.

Don't know if I'll go through my old film clips to see if I have anything for the montage or not, if I do, I'll post something tomorrow.
 
I had just deleted my entire collection of saved clips (all the way since release) moments before going on GAF and seeing that there's a montage being made. Sonofa-!
 
I am really sorry to derail the awesome discussion about mp montages and everything (joking xD) bringing up this, but I have a little question about the Halo Encyclopedia.

Kinda OT, but then againg, this has become the HaloGAF thread, so: on amazon uk there are two versions of the halopedia, one of which is stated as "special edition" yet to be released.

Does anyone know what's special about it? What are the extras (they have to be pretty consistent since the price is five times the normal one)?

Thanks in advance xD

I'd be willing to offer my capture card services to record these in super 720p quality if you guys prefer. I also like to ask if it would be possible for me to join up on this? =o

If you want some samples of my work you can check out my youtube account under the name DualX2 (I'd link you if I wasn't at work) with the videos that are obviously not trailers.

Got rainin' goose. So no worries there my young friend. I'm just catching up on what what was posted while I was asleep. I'll post a list of all the clips I have so far so if I have missed anything you can let me know.
Cool. Glad to hear it. And if you need any help, don't hesitate to ask.

So we're finally going to make a proper montage? Can I get in on this? How clips can I submit?

Everybody is welcome :D Either PM me the links to your Fileshare or message over LIVE. 3 or 4 clips should be plenty.

Will do. Early days yet.

Sorry if I missed any. Just let me know.

6.22GB and 67 clips so far! Yikes!
 
Probably not the place but since people are sharing clips and the like. I was having a look on my fileshare cause I was thinking of adding something to it and I came across a few cool screens I have on there.

They're from the ODST Mythic contest Bungie had last year, I didn't win anything but it was cool trying to get some nice screenshots. These were defintely two of my favourites, the second one especially. Just thought I'd share.

This one: [url]http://www.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3fileid=94977699[/url]

It's an ODST clip from the mission "Oni Alpha Site," but the part of the video I want to be included (if it can be included in someway - credits video perhaps?) is four minutes long. It shows what happens when you play on Easy and rush into a whole crap load of Covenant.:lol

Nice! Make that 73 clips so far then :lol

Though just to clarify: I'm gonna capture all the clips myself (where possible) for the sake of consistency. Bungie Renders are nice, but mostly 640x360 and I'm capturing at a higher ratio. I'm fussy like that. So no need to worry about the clips being rendered fellas.

Test I did yesterday for quality. <3 Halo 3 replay function!!

Cap it and run it at 2x speed set, as required by law, to Yakety Sax. :lol

It's only about the first four minutes of it. Like I said, it could be used to play in the background while the credits roll.

The return of the elites and promises of larger scale battles has me pretty pumped about this.

A lot of people didn't like ODST but for me it showed what Bungie could do when they were allowed to experiment a little and I feel that it payed off well.

High hopes, high hopes.

So Bladed, are you also putting together the actual montage? If so I'd be interested in the 720P version you will be doing. I can send over $ for a copy of it on DVD if needed. :D

No need, I'm going to be assisting with getting the HD stuff out there to him. So afterwards I'll see if I can't have him forward it to me so I can upload it to my Vimeo account so you can view the stream and download it as well. All up to him though.

Yeah, pretty much this. Dual is going to capture everything in HD (cos he's nucking futs
thanks dude :D
) and I'll put it all together in a nice package with bells and whistles and some music.

I'll probably upload the whole file somewhere and put a copy on Youtube for easy viewing. Also, I thought Vimeo had stopped letting people put gaming videos on their site... that still hold true?

I thought Vimeo got rid of game-related content some time ago?

Oh lord, Bladed. You just signed up for a gigantic project it seems haha.

Almost at 100 clips/resquested clips. I have 70+ captured but the man, the myth that is DualX2 is taking us into the HD age. He's the one I feel sorry for :lol

I've had my account on there for a little while now, and I've only really uploaded my own content from Halo 3 and GRAW. Nothing has been said to me because of this. I haven't checked in on it for a little while now though so I'll see if it's still up tonight.

Easy as cake. Needed a real test on my capture card anyway especially since I'm going to be doing some more recording of my own for the Reach beta.

That's impossible. Just got a new computer case and everything last week which keeps my stuff cooled at a nice 23C.

They did, but it's based on some measure of "artistic merit." As I understand it, they will purge gameplay and montage videos as they see fit. They emptied out my entire collection. :(
