View Full Version : [HALO 3] Zanzibar's return to Halo 3!



TIA Gangsta
April 23rd, 2007, 04:21 PM
There was actually some rumours of Zanzibar returning for Halo 3, since a map which looked very similar to Zanzibar was seen in the latest Halo 3 ViDoc.
Some just said it may have been "ripped" from Halo 2, to just test the weapons (etc). Personally, I didn't believe it's making a return, since I remember 1up saying the map High Ground is a re-make of Zanzibar...which I thought was true.

Well...apparently not...as this LEAKED video shows:

http://www.gametrailers.com/umwatcher.php?id=59795

It's a BETA build of the game, being played on a map called "Last Resort", and looking at the footage, it definately IS a re-make of Zanzibar (woohoo!). Looks like a little taster of what some of you may be playing next month...

Looking at this amazing footage of the new Zanzibar, it's reassured me Bungie are definately on the right track. Everything to the side-wall paths to the giant generator room seems an excellect idea to improve gameplay.

Notice how the shield pulses red when it's down, and the Bubble Shield can be entered/exited by others, but keeps bullets and grenades outside the bubble.

Thanks to a few Halo fans at Bungie Forums for finding/posting this video!


EDIT: Forgot to put in this topic about another rumour, still uncomfirmed, but realistic.
This link reveals an article claiming Halo 3 to be supporting 1080p and running at 60fps...=O
http://www.playthree.net/2007/04/halo-3-to-support-true-not-upscaled.html

True or false? It isn't known at the moment...let's just hope it's true. It is Microsoft's flagship game, so it would make sense to make it as good as it can be.

Again, thanks to another fan at Bungie Forums for finding/posting the article.

Yeah, that's another thing that's been going around...Rumours about Halo 3 being able to support 1080p, with the release of the new Xbox 360 Elite.
It was posted on some website, but nobody else had heard about it, so at the moment it's just a rumour...But Halo IS Microsoft's flagship game, so it would make sense to make it as good as it can be. 1080p sounds good...

You mean the ViDoc...? Yeah, that's old...and NOT leaked, it was released by Bungie themselves.
This is a leaked video, from some random guy who got to play the Beta early (with some dodgy "My friend works at Microsoft" excuse), and set in a map nobody's ever seen before.

IGN just wrote an article on it, and they've gathered enough evidence to suggest it's far from final. They pointed out a few dodgy textures, hardly any finishing touches on the effects (e.g. grenade explosions) and something else I can't remember...

Now here is what im thinking from all of this; If Bunige is going to pay homeage to the "old school" h2 favorites such as zanzibar , then I see no reason at all why they wouldn't go right ahead and also remake Lockout and Ascension.

I'm so fucking tired of remakes (H1->H2, H2->H1, and now H2->H3), out with the old and in with the new damnit :eyesroll:!


I'm sure this is how Zanzibar actually started out, but due to the limits of the game they had to simplify it.

Also, I'm pretty sure the engine and asset build was finalized long ago for the beta, which is why some of it looks rough now, so don't get your panties in a wad just because its getting released in the September-October range.

Yeah, capture card, and they were in their own homes, hence why they were playing online (gamecards were posted on the forums, and they said "Last Game Played: Halo 3 Beta"), so there was nobody to stop them from recording.

And it's a good damn thing that Bungie aren't allowing campaign to be tested by anyone other than the Bungie Team...imagine what a disaster it would be if the ending of the game (or something significant in the Campaign) was leaked....Yikes...

The gamer tag thing?

That wasnt proof he played it, or proof that it was his friends gamer tag.

Could have been any one who has access to h3.

Compared to the claimed "HD" it is. And it still isn't clear, that's the point, so you can't see all the details and effects...which is kinda what seperates HD games from the SD games.

I always understand how I die in Halo 2.

The few things I'm afraid of are them trying to push too many weapons into a map, and overcrowding it. Also something that I never got a grip for when playing was the headshot weapons, I think I just need to get used to it more, but the BR seemed to take a hell of a lot of shots to kill someone.l

Halo 2 it's just like......spawn - dead, spawn - dead, spawn - dead. Most of thetime you get to kill like 1- 3 people before your dead, most of the time you never last 30 seconds. Well, thats me anyway.

99.9% , You die because you get what they call "being own'd". "Owning" as it is called is what they do in a "First Person Shooter". To be as brief as I can while getting the point across ,I'll describe it in layman's term;

Ya get skeet'd on!

Now for all of you who want a more tech. description;
"owning" is getting murdered without consent by someone who is obviously enjoying the pleasure of taking control of your body. (not to be confused with "Rape" , but it is sometimes referred to that since the definitions fairly match.)

But wait! Why do people "Skeet" on your head regions in these "First Person Shooters"?

Thats because this is a "First Person Shooter", and thats what happens in a FPS (First Person Shooter). The goal of a "FPS"(First Person Shooter) is to kill those who happen to be in front of your weapon, or in some examples , "AFK" which means "Away "Fapping" [with one's] Koch"

Now , I would go all fancy in a diagram here but I think I can explain it just fine. See, if you are behind someone (as in , they don't see you) and eject lead skeet on their face (what they call "owning") (pardon the pun too btw, I mean ammunitions) you be what they call the "own't". Unlike other games , First Person Shooters DO NOT usually have people dieing from the following:

Lightning bolts
Magical spell casting
Hordes of goats
Snafubar
"M01 l01k l3vel 57 S0L1d Sn@k3zor 1337 F@pPZ0rz W@an'd
Any one related to SnafubarSo yes , if you DO die in a shooter I can confirm that you most likely got owned.

I hope this has been helpful to the less informed part of the gaming community , and to tie up any loose ends about why people die in FPS's (First Person Shooters)

My point was that there were two teams, and each one always spawns in seperate places on the map, therefore there would be a quick silent run-around before the action starts.

I always understand how I die in Halo 2.

The few things I'm afraid of are them trying to push too many weapons into a map, and overcrowding it. Also something that I never got a grip for when playing was the headshot weapons, I think I just need to get used to it more, but the BR seemed to take a hell of a lot of shots to kill someone.lIt takes 4 shots to kill someone with a BR, and 5 if you have a bad connection (4th shot registers but only after the time frame to hit a 5th shot do you actually witness their demise.) Sniper is one shot. How hard is that?

I was talking in H3, but everyone had bad connections there anyways.

Last time I played a big match on Zanzibar, it sucked.

And the time before that, and the time before that too.

I could see Zanzibar working on Halo 1's engine better. :)

Eh...well that's mostly thanks to the dickheads on Halo 2 online...but my point was that Zanzibar is a great map if you mind some cool people to play with.
This H3 version just looks totally awesome...

I enjoyed Zanzibar, it may not have been the best slayer map. But it was good for Assault and 1 Flag CTF.

No he was right, it's 3 at the head.
ONE SHOT KILL? You're joking right?
Maybe you're thinking of SWAT?

No, maybe I'm fucking right? Headshots don't matter when you have shields. Anyone who knows Halo will be able to tell you the pistol in Halo 1 is 2 body shots, then one headshot, and the BR in Halo 2 is 3 body shots, then one headshot.
