Halo: Reach Campaign Trailer

Instead of going with the usual satisfying moments, decided to mix it up and go with the "aww :(" moments this time, so here's my shittiest gif post since Kat shoulder mascot era, just because.

Nice gifs as usual. BTW, was that cocop's point of view we were watching the video from Reflection on? I closed the video down before seeing the list of players at the end of the game.

Guess I'm the only one bummed about the windows not being breakable, takes away two sight lines and a different way to get into the room. :|

Whoa really? That's a major bummer. That kills an escape route I used to use all of the time there. Jumping through that on the run was an art.

edit: Fourdoor, the player kills cocop in the match so it's not him.

No way, not enough AR.

Urk followed up and corrected Ramirez.. they ARE breakable.
 
Reflection looks fantastic. Seems like Bungie have perfectly captured what made Ivory Tower such a great map, unlike some of the remakes in the past (I'm looking at you Blackout).

Nice to see a video with competent players too.
 
Gameplay from Reach that isn't 30 seconds long? What kind of sorcery is this? I think that's like about 5 years worth of "videos" from IGN.

And competent DMR gameplay and not random shooting at the walls with an AR from who I'm assuming is David Ellis (though, I'm probably wrong)?! Thanks, 343/Waypoint team.

If a few HaloGAF members just came up with awesome asassinations so easily, I'm sure all of Bungie have made some really awesome ones.

Using an enemies weapon/combat knife on him would be awesome. I do hope there are a few assassinations that use guns too, like the Magnum one-shot in the head idea.

I had an idea of one where a Spartan or Elite would grab their victim by the head, put their combat knife/energy knife on their throat, and kick them into the knife.

And one where a Spartan would basically slide down an Elite's back with their knife just carving a huge gash down the Elite's spine.

i have no life/too much time on my hands :(

Coco P. Jojo doesn't even know what a single-shot weapon is.

I remember reading a quote from Jason Jones (I think) a while back that basically said Halo 1 multiplayer was added on at the last second, as they didn't think it anyone would really play it or that it would be so successful.

If anyone can find that quote for me, I'd really appreciate it.

I don't have the quote, but if I remember correctly, they were working on it for awhile, but it was buggy and essentially unplayable over LAN. They seriously considered cutting it so the people working on it could be freed up to help with the campaign, which was under a huge crunch (Jones made the last code changes at 6 AM the day it had to go out for certification). Two weeks before that deadline they finally got multiplayer working well and solved many of the network troubles they had been having. They didn't really add it at the last second, but it seemingly all came together in the final days.

I believe the "story" of Halo 1 multiplayer was also talked about in a Podcast from a while ago, and I think it might have been one with Luke Timmins in it. If I find it, I'll post the link.
 
So if Shishka isn't going to be manning Reach's playlists, does this mean the possible return of Jerimiah, Ninja 0n Fire, who managed Halo 2's playlists?

http://www.bungie.net/inside/teamindex.aspx (scroll to bottom, last one in the list)

I was under the impression that he wasn't at Bungie anymore, but it shows him as currently being in Test, so maybe...awesome playlists a la Halo 2? Please?

Don't toy with me.

Who knows how long ago that's been updated.

http://www.bungie.net/Account/profile.aspx?uid=1041322 - he is active on B.net, also.
 
Well, stosh is on there, and they don't put contractors on the team page as far as I can tell. He was hired full-time just under a year ago, so...sometime between then and now? Haha. Although urk isn't on there, so who knows.

Like all of 343, they take other's ideas and run with them. What's that title you're working on? Oh the old Bungie IP :p

I mad :( :lol

Dangit, now I'm going to think he is coming back. Though, yeah, don't know when that was last updated, and I don't even think that has all of the bungie employees on there. Don't see urk on there...

Participation on the Meet the Team page is voluntary (and frequently out of date), but Jeremiah is, in fact, on the Bungie payroll.

It's pretty much impossible since he's in space and is gone not long after the assault on Reach starts. They can always retcon a bunch of stuff to make it work though but I do not see the necessity to incorporate the Chief.

he traveled back in time at the end of h3 and will save reach

So when are we going to get official word on what's up with Shishka?
