If Halo lore serves me right (don't worry, I'm an expert), that is not a MAC shot at all at all. That is in fact a combination of events that took place in Halo 2 and Halo 3. See, that light is actually MC launching himself through space with the Covenant bomb, of course, he went so fast he travelled through time and also tore right through the ship. That explosion is just the bomb travelling at speed and thus detonating downwards. The moments after the blast are reminiscent of the opening scene in Halo 3 when the Chief falls into orbit. Noble 6 is nodding as the marines acknowledge on the intercom that their reading is that of the Chiefs signal. He must be thinking, "We'll be ok, Johnson has him now."

If that really turns out to be true then I will laugh and cry at the same time :lol

[duk]

why would the mac gun be shooting downwards?

 

[Hydranockz]

why would the mac gun be shooting downwards?

if it was fired from space from some UNSC Fleet.

 

[Darkflight]

"That MAC gun can put a round clean through a Covenant Capital Ship."

Goddamn, that is glorious.

 

[Not a Jellyfish]

I don't know much about the functionality or features of the MAC gun but it does hit the water so calmly, very pretty.

Only to wake up the Cloverfield monster and ruin Michael Stahl-David's day.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

Because the covie ship was on the planet under the UNSC ship firing it?


Just bought my A40 Custom Tags to go on my BXR military green head set.

Epic twist. The Convenant and the UNSC work together to kill the Reach Cloverfield monster. Epic story, bungie, epic story. It has everything: monster, time traveller, jetpacks

 

[Xblog]

The Beta had limited options, so the full picture wasn't clear - Bungie purposely hid a lot of stuff.

The only mode (I think) you can't earn Credits in is Theatre. You'll earn them in everything else for sure.

Excuse me but you do not understand me .. I wanted to know if our choice
of armor will be present and therefore visible in whics multiplayer game mode (only lone wolf ?)

God damn I love halo. I sincerely hope that is what is going on in that shot that is about the most kick ass thing I have ever heard.

It will be visible in every game mode where you can control a Spartan. Your primary colour will be changed to the team colour in MM but eerywhere else, it's all you.

 

[Buttonbasher]

I will allow this.

 

[Slightly Live]

And your Armour doesn't change, you'll see your unique choice on your character in every mode. =)

ok thanks 2 but in BETA, it was not visible ? i don't remember this...

 

[Not a Jellyfish]

I believe it was visible in the beta but just not too easy to notice when everyone is red or blue. That and it restricted to shoulders, helmet and chest pieces, should be much easier to stand out when players have all areas of customization.

This.

My only problem with the beta in regards to the colours were that the secondary colours were still not really obvious at all. What I would so to have only the full chest piece as the team colour and the rest as your own colour :3

No, just mindless stuff per usual.

Bungie revealed the Halo Reach achievement.

Chopper ate the warthog shadow, Bungie in retaliation melted down all the choppers in a giant fusion reactor.

They blamed Stosh.

Eazy B in depressed delirium killed himself by playing chicken with a cyborg chicken.


Massive crying ensued.

Full achievement list in BWU.

Eurogamer Interview.

Eurogamer campaign preview

Ten new campaign screens.

Some other outlets covered the same content.

And that epic gif up above.

Next week, a lot more campaign coverage including video.

LOL that made me laugh.

 

[Photolysis]

Speaking of which, have there been any changes to the Theatre that Bungie have talked about?

I noticed you could skip back in time in the beta for Generator Defense games which should be equivalent to doing it in a Firefight game, engine-wise... could it be that clips and rewinding work for Campaign games now?

More than likely. I remember something vaguely mentioned about that back during Beta.

Someone touch that up. I'm a noob at PS.

Here is my first rough attempt. Embossed the 7th Column logo into the GAF logo. The idea sounded better in my head that I think it came out, but oh well. Thoughts?

Just bought my A40 Custom Tags to go on my BXR military green head set.

http://i31.tinypic.com/30acdac.jpg

I worked on that logo a little more this morning, but it appears I'm too late. Oh well, here is another version, just in case...

 

[Hydranockz]

Replace 'UNSC' with HaloGaf (the O could be placed in the center) and I will forever love you.

Travelled through time? What the hell are you talking about... If he's right then shit these games confused the hell out of me.

I actually liked the last one better.

For the logo that's kind of redundant since the NeoGAF logo is at the center, don't you think?

The idea was originally to merge the two. Halo and Neogaf.

Hopefully you have that texture on another layer or in the layer style. Make it more subtle. Right now it's way too strong.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

Yeah, that was my main "complaint" I also think the neogaf logo should remain it's normal colors.

When I imagined this originally when I got the idea, it was of a Class A uniform unit patch type deal. With all the colors and stuff.


Like this, this is my unit patch.

 

[Circle T]

I can work on that later this afternoon.

I actually liked the last one better.

That's cool. I was just messing with it, and thought I'd throw up that new revision. I guess it works well though, since you already ordered them.

Are you talking about the HaloGAF logo, or the ONI logo? I still have the HaloGAF psd file, but I've already deleted the ONI one. It didn't take much work, so no biggie if I have to redo it.

Ahhh, I see. I was going more for a stone look, like it was engraved into the side of a building, or whatever. But, I see what you are shooting for now. I could make a new one, if you want, using that high-res ONI logo, but if you've already ordered the pieces, it doesn't really matter.

Revise it how ever you want bud, it isn't like I own either logo! :lol

The only idea I came up with was combining them to make an awesome HaloGAF logo we could use on A40s if we wanted to. You're the one who's making them look a lot better, I don't have the skill to do that.

Edit: Yeah, I already ordered the ones I posted. I like the more simple look of the ONI logo, with the textured NeoGAF logo.

 

[The Librarian]

Cool logos.

For a second there at the beginning I thought you were going to bitch at me for implying a small Corvette is considered a Capital Ship (according to the halo wikia, it is a light capital warship, I checked before posting that johnson quote xD ).

I don't see why it is would be impossible in the Halo universe. Slipspace allows for travel faster than lightspeed, so technically 'our' laws of physics don't apply in slipspace.
