There will be a beta version of the Halo 3 stat tracking activated on Bnet during the beta, it--like the very beta you'll be playing--will use a portion of the functionality coming this Fall.

Awesome. Thanks, man.

Ooh so stat tracking in the Halo 3 Beta! Thanks for filling us in Luke! :D
 
it's the best footage released yet. Not only does it show things, it doesn't have an annoying whistling song!
 
gonna go through some of these tags tomorrow, looking forward to playing some Halo3 with Gaffers as I didn't much with Halo 2.

my speeds on that download have dropped by half in the last 10 seconds thanks GAF.

That's one hell of a first update to Bungie.net, Luke!

Footage looked great - the detail added to Valhalla really jumped out. It looks...lush.

OP updated.
 
I though the water at the begining of the video with the flowers was real for a moment there. Also there something small flashing blue near the water, maybe just the video.

So still Stinkles is giving you all is work......:lol

He's traveling the world and my brain is being fused by stuff and things. Enjoy the vids, see some of you online this weekend, mayhaps.
 
:lol i didnt watch the credits and after! lazr cat, laser-pwnage. fantastic
 
the 16 seem so far away now. Cant wait to play with you guys.
Are we gonna get an HD Video (1280*720) before the beta hits?
 
Dayum that video was ALL sorts of awesome!!!

MrJukes don't play AT ALL with that Spartan Laser - the man is a beast!

Lo-Res vid, but damn it looked so good - lighting and water were great, and you can see just about everything is improved so much times over the Alpha pics - imagine this puppy in HD! :D

And man the Mongoose looks so damn fun!

Also, at 2:37, you hear and see the new award for stopping someone's spree - "Killjoy"... cool...

The detail in the Carbine looks sweet too...

And about the Spartan customisations, you see at 3:15, there's a Spartan with his top half as pink/purple, and the bottom as green, with some green on his forearms, so it really looks highly customisble for real...

Man, I gotta watch it a few more times again!

...oh, and thanks for the info about Beta stat tracking Luke!
 
that looked pretty damn amazing, but the laser is the new energy sword, give it a hour before people start bitching.

Still better than you-tube quality, the "Laser" is seriously awesome!!! :)

I wonder if you can change the color of the armor of your upper-body, pants, arms etc.
