anyone who faked the reach leak is a fucking pussy attention whore! IGN must have a really slow news day if their journalism is reporting on baseless leaks. but they're not as bad as the MLG FUCK STICKS with their whiny douchebag members and president for their fake leak rumors. they already were full of shit before, why would they want to feed themselves full of more bullshit?
but they're all just pawns in this game of chess. the real king and queen douchebags are the assholes at MS who mishandled the Halo 2 port to "PC" (that is, if your PC is a shista or higher machine)! they ruined what could have been a great game port, then lied to us about the editor! now i'm here ruining their lime light with what will probably be their last properly done fucking halo game.
MS murders games, Viva La Revolución!
now for the people here for the story, here's a few hints (spoiler warning!)
Jorge is the first to go. Kat follows him shortly after. eventually Cartar bites the bullet. then Emile meets his maker. capt Keyes and the PoA are back in the end. glacier is actually an underground forerunner construct where Halsey is hiding out but is soon breached by the covies.

Re: Halo Reach Leaked: This Is The Way The World Ends
It's not really a spoiler but I do have a question about armor customization:
can you change where your knife is placed in the armory?
also
what is available to you at the beginning of the game without achieving anything?

Re: Halo Reach Leaked: This Is The Way The World Ends
the knife is only available for the right side, so no. i'll have to check out what new accounts get when i play again later.
some gameplay things i've noticed
* skrimishers can use hologram abilities
* the concussion rifle is basically the plasma equivalent of the brute shot. just more annoying when it's being shot at you -_-
* the sabre mission is no fucking joke on legendary. but it is still fun. the mission isn't the only 'unique' situation you'll get thrown into. hope you like mac blasts...
* the MC's firefight dialogue actually has substance, he isn't quiet as a pin drop.
* there's a mission that seems EXTREMELY inspired from the old T&R mission from halo 1. it is a super fucking fun mission. you'd be crazy not to enjoy it with the camo powerup found at the start of it...
* eh, don't let the AI drive you while you gun in legendary. not so much because they can't drive, but just there are some fucking powerful weapons out there in the hands of some smart covies who will rip you to shreds.

So, I'm one of those people who just loves to know things before games come out. This question, I believe, is on a couple people's minds, but I apologize if anyone is upset that I'm asking this.
In what way is Noble Team involved with the PoA? Do we just catch a glimpse of it, or what?
(Perhaps a PM would be more suitable, since there appear to be many people who want nothing spoiled.)

Re: Halo Reach Leaked: This Is The Way The World Ends
people should know the purpose of spoiler tags. not my fault curiosity killed a couple kitties
the PoA is dry docked at the shipyards (remember that one map from the beta?). after the glacier level you have to hand deliver a high-value item to capt'n keyes. and by that time in the game, there isn't really a noble team anymore so to say they're "involved" isn't an accurate statement. anyway, the PoA and its capt make more than just a cameo appearance don't worry.
it really is a touching game/ending. "A Spartan Will Rise" is an understatement. a whole batch of them rose, but like the mighty titans they are, end up falling at some point in time.

I don't mess with Xbox security circumventing. That's an up hill battle on a mountain which you have no view of the top. I prefer messing with Halo. At least I'm on a somewhat level ground with it, since stuff I learned from 6+ years ago can still be applied when figuring out systems implementations or data usage. I leave the generalists to their general reversing while I specialize (or try to at least) in Halo and its tech.

Re: Halo Reach Leaked: This Is The Way The World Ends
Hey there, I made an account just to ask you a question since someone redirected me here and I was super excited. Can I take the bullet hole through the helmet as a cue that your Noble 6 does indeed die by the end of the game? Good to know I predicted correctly on the fate of the remaining Noble Team members. I'm really curious about the fate of my own personal character though. I was also wondering something from the Armory if you could check, does the Blue Visor show up as costing 50,000 cR and are there any other visor colors available to you besides Silver and Blue?

Jorge, Carter, Emile all take one for the team. Kat gets assassinated. noble 6 dukes it out with one too many zealot elites in the end...
the MC doesn't appear anywhere in the campaign's story. he is only in firefight
each literal campaign "level" is like 2 or 3 HUGE missions. you'll end up spending on average (some may be longer, others shorter) of 50 to 60minutes on each level on heroic if you're a seasoned player.
that picture of a map with infection doesn't come with the game. it's either an old build of forge world (has more halo look than reach), a scrapped map or possible future dlc.

Re: Halo Reach Leaked: This Is The Way The World Ends
So I've read that Noble Six is outmatched by more Zealot Elites than he can handle in the end. It sounded like a somewhat weak ending, for such an epic story... so I got to pondering.
Isn't there an achievement for the 5th mission that involves killing an Elite? Kill a Zealot Elite before he can escape, if I remember correctly. Something tells me there is a an alternate ending to the game, if you get that achievement. Maybe Noble Six gets past the Zealot Elites, and dies in another manner.
Someone should definitely try this, and let me know how it goes.
Haven't heard anything about the Legendary ending either, though I'm guessing nobdy has seen it thus far.

Could you post a screenshot or two of all of the helmets available, and I don't just mean the starting ones, I mean all of them. I assume you have a mod for it.

Considering there's 10 levels, that seems like something of a stretch - just because you kill one particular type of enemy half-way through the game doesn't mean you would then be able to survive against a large group of them unarmed come game's end (unarmed is speculation due to Che's use of the term 'duking it out).
There's an extended ending for Legendary, but given the fact that A: Bungie's always been more focussed on producing a single, driven narrative and B: Marketing departments have an enormous hard-on for multiple endings and pimp that shit out like crazy then I'd say that it's very unlikely there's multiple endings on this one. Sounds like wishful thinking on your part.
ps I didn't find this through b.net; that place is everything bad about forums, ever.

At first I thought the modacity regulars complaining about all the noobs dropping in here was a little bit unwarranted but it's starting to make more sense now.

I'm not going to bother replying to that directly, because I honestly don't care about your criticisms. Please read this because I don't want to start a flame war and waste my time. http://www.modacity.net/forums/announcement.php?f=18
Anyways the campaign, forge and firefight somebody showed was pretty sick, but the guy should release more, he's trying to tease us or some shit.

Chill you guys, no need to complain about new people signing up. There's already hundreds of unused accounts in the database that have never even been activated.

You can stay. You already have 10 posts :D
I'm just saying that when the day comes, it'll be real annoying to clean the unused accounts out. Everyone is welcome to stay if they actually contribute to the forum for more than a month. That's simply my opinion, though. Who the fuck cares what I say?

What's this "high priority" item that Capt. Keyes so desperately needs to be delivered?
*Edit: At Korn, definitely my first assumption. :realsmug:

I think it's quite obvious that Keyes forgot his porno stash back in his barracks and requested Noble Team to hand deliver it. I mean, what other high value item could it be that is in the halo universe?

Sorry, I forgot to add more "I can has leakz of Reach? Gimme now!!!"
Seriously, bro. You're gonna have a shitty time playing this game if you know everything about it, but have to wait for it and then when you get it you're like..."oh, that's cool, but I already knew that...:("
Trust me. It's not fun playing something for the first time, but already knowing what the fuck happens.

Is there any info on armor permutations, armor effects, multilayer maps, etc someone can compile into a single post? I don't want to inadvertently stumble on campaign spoilers.

You'd best do that. There have been several campaign spoilers in this thread with no spoiler tags.

Re: Halo Reach Leaked: This Is The Way The World Ends
Luckily the ones I've seen weren't surprising, such as all of noble team getting killed (no shit, MC was the last spartan), and Keyes being in the game (no shit, it's a prequel to CE).

Re: Halo Reach Leaked: This Is The Way The World Ends
Hello,
I have a couple of general game design questions, actually. I recall in their first ViDoc, Bungie stating the game could manage 40+ AI at a time. This number later grew to 60 in a more recent interview, though if that was a typo or if they actually had made more improvements on the engine, well...
I'm not particularly exacting either way, but just how busy do things get in Campaign? Does it ever seem like there are encounters that have dwarfed previous titles in the franchise or do the overall numbers feel more or less the same? Is the feeling of being involved in large-scale combat actually there? For better and for worse, the Halo games more felt like they were geared more towards small skirmishes and guerilla-style pushes. Those are certainly welcome, mind you, just curious about the numbers at work.
More importantly, are enemies equally as engaging as they are numerous? They certainly seemed full of personality and animalistically cunning in the official media.
On a related note, are the friendly AI worth a damn, whether it's other members of Noble Team or grunts? Does it feel like each member of Noble has their own character whenever you're fighting alongside them?
To put it in other words: Is the game as challenging as advertised? Did Bungie succeed in that particular gambit?
And on other side-notes: What does the game consider the "standard" difficulty? Heroic as was the case in the prior two games or is Normal still a challenge as it was in the first game?
Oh yeah, and assuming we'll be seeing urban combat, how involved does that get? Do we finally get to see something on the scale of what the E3 demo of Halo 2 promised? And do we get to fight in a vacuum again? That was certainly a highlight in that one. Maybe some boarding action after the dogfighting in orbit?
Thank you.

Thank you.
you'll def be seeing a lot more active AI characters in reach. i'm not sure if can recall a time when there was 40 characters running about...maybe 30 (not to say they can't support 40+ AI tho, they might have thought after a certain number that things just got too overwhelming, idk)
things get pretty damn busy while in the campaign. i will bet you money that there won't ever be a time where you think to yourself 'man, there are too few enemy characters in this encounter!'. the only exception i think to all of this is probably the first level, but i think it's due to the fact that it's suppose to ease you into the game. on that note, the first level is also a tutorial level kinda but doesn't run you thru the motions like halo1 or halo2 did. the first level basically gives you enough characters to fight to get a feel for the game and ease you into what's going on. for people new to the game, or who didn't play the beta, this will be a good thing. existing users shouldn't mind it tho (gave me more time to enjoy the views)
i've played on heroic and legendary...both are challenging. the AI isn't dumb and will use some smart maneuvers against you. take into account there are a shit load of them and you got yourself a pretty challenging firefight. people who just run and gun are going to have a real hard time playing this game on the higher difficulties.
friendly AI...well they're a special case. why? because they don't die. ever (they're invincible). well, expect when they're killed off but heh, that's a different story! this fact kinda makes some later game play feel like a joke, but i guess it could worse, you could have to baby sit them along with your troopers (when you actually have their support). who wants to babysit a spartan?
the game considers normal the standard difficultly AFAIK, not sure what you mean exactly. if you're a seasoned player then you'll want to play on heroic as you bring to the table a pre-existing know-how of how to fight the enemy or drive a vehicle, etc.
there's def urban combat again (gotta help them civies!). i wouldn't compare it to halo2's e3 demo as reach isn't earth. but you do get to fight in a vacuum again (during some boarding action like you said), and you get some good exposure to dogfighting in space (via the sabre in two battles, but in the same level) and in the air (via the falcon).
i think i forgot to address a question about buggers earlier: yes, they're back in the campaign, but not as :ugh:ifying
edit: nope, no secret AAs
