The gridded area at the end looks like it could be used to snap Forge items... But really, I have no idea. That video was crazy.
 
Whoa, Bungie cocktease total.

I'm thinking the end part is a map creator, and at the start you have... no clue. Bots for multiplayer?

Good times are a 'coming.
 
What the fuck...

There's so many things that could be taken from that video it isn't funny. Most of them being things that I never thought (and most likely really aren't) actually in the works. Whoever decided to show that stuff made a big mistake (potential letdowns) but at the same time has got me amped at doo doo for their future announcements. Bravo, Bungie.

and nice find bootlegger
 
Lol, kids at Bungie.net are saying it's not Luke. Someone is saying it's a modded map with a guy pretending to be Luke. >_> Come on now.

Oh, couldn't this also be Halo 3 PC? :\
 
whoa did anyone else notice how in one scene he had recon shoulders pads then in the next he didnt... why the hell would anyone remove recon.. ?
 
WTF? Campaign maker?

I am game there.

Man, screw Bungie. The Weekly Updates suck. Enough with this short video crap. Give me massive walls of overly flowery text.
You are such a tease.

edit: Happy to know its you in the video then.
 
Aww fuck, the implications are so fucking vast... I can't wrap my mind around "HOW"!

I mean, yes, this is Bungie, but if it is what I think it is, it would be so fucking groundbreaking that.... fuck man, I just cannot imagine the massive ownage on any other FPS out there.

All I want is Campaign Forge.:D
 
The Flood and Brutes in Rats Nest make me think it's some kind of co-op gametype where you have to face endless waves of enemies for a certain time period (kinda like Gears 2 "Horde" mode and I think GRAW2).

And the end of that video with the blue grid in space, Geometry Wars 2 tie-in confirmed.
 
I doubt we will be able to forge campaign. They can't add new forge items to maps on the disc, so I highly doubt they can add forge to the campaign.
 
I've got to think that if Luke was just strolling through this level, and nobody was attacking him, that these characters aren't just enemies, they can be spawned into the map and placed on a certain team.

HAHAHAHA we'll never forge campaign.

Ya know that video was on Rat's Nest, right.
 
The implications are so vast I am refusing to entertain them. If I do, they will grow in size and form only to be crushed by whatever the reveal ends up being. I will keep them realistic.

"Major changes to the Halo 3 Online experience"

oh god

OH GOD

OH GOD

Maybe it will be a mapmaker that lets you add enemies with AI triggers. They could just do a bunch of premade rooms like Timesplitters.

Now how fucking awesome would it be to have a huge Avalanche war with that?

I'm just going to sit back and keep it real... even though I'm about to blow up from excitement of various things this could turn out to be :lol Will wait. Maybe at PAX we'll hear/see more.
 
I have to think that Bungie - LUKE - knew exactly what kind of rampant speculation that video would bring forth. I can't imagine they would tease like that just for the sake of it. There's definitely shenanigans afoot.

My expectations are calibrated to "hope for Halo 3 Hoard mode, will be happy with other stuffz".

That would be pretty cool, imagine the scoring competitions.
I also, am going to try to keep hype at a reasonable level.
 
HALO? INNOVATING? LOL I BITE MY THUMB AT YOU EDGE I MEAN BUNGIE NEVER INNOVATES NOTHING NEW EVER AND I MEAN HALO IS OVERRATED AND BUNGIE TREATS THEIR FANS LIKE CRAP AND THE ONLINE COMMUNITY IS SO BAD AND 540P AND NO AA AND HALO 3 DOES NOT INNOVATE.
 
Blueblur1 said:
Shhhh Ghaleon! Don't set expectations high!
Or other stuffz! I'm flexible.

Really, I'm not sure what to make of any of it. Could be (in no order):

1) Campaign editor on MP maps
2) Horde mode on MP maps
3) Tools for machinema, placing dudes to stand and move around
4) Something else entirely?

As for the end, that was either a structure from their new game, or from a new map. I'm assuming the engine is being tweaked and used in the new game, and from the art it would fit in with the Halo universe. I'm running with "new map" for now.

So. Confused. :lol
 
Halo 3 "Hoard" mode would be INSANE. I don't think that's terribly realistic, but it would be awesome. I'm keeping my expectations fairly low, I think some people might be getting just a taaaad carried away here.

Also people will learn to fear the circus bears.
 
being able to add timed events, or AI to forge mode would be insanely awesome. Creating cooperative maps where you fend off brutes or the like would be great.

It would be so awesome if we could control where and how many AI appeared in a Campaign level.


I could create some epic battles.
Anything dealing with campaign would be awesome. But the video didn't suggest any changes to the campaign. We're looking at MP changes, here. Which could still be amazing based on what was shown in the video.
