the new SPv2 Spirits should look better than the SPv1 dropships.
pics plz....mb?
The SPv1 covenant dropships shot those big ass mortar cannons from those turrets. It made me run for cover, unless i had that Anti-aircraft Missile Launcher.
CMT is still working hard on it. It is postponed like what Master1337 said in that other thread "Postponed".
Actually, we have 4 guns on the Spirit.
yay. More firepower on the spirits. Are the plasma bolts stronger?
All I have to say to that is:
:p
all i have to say to that is this:
:saddowns:
All I have to say is this:
wtf is the Spirit? I feel so uninformed
It's the new drop ship, right?..
It's not really new per se, but it's been reworked to look better.
But, it's the awkward, U-shaped drop ship the covenant used with the horribly overpowered wraith cannon on it (as of SPv1).
yeah that was irritating...
but without the wraith cannon...
Still has a more classic Covenant air about it than the Phantom.
also i hope there is no anti aircraft rocket launcher. thats bull. the covenant need to at least make it to the ground...
:XD: lol. But I thought the Anti_Aircraft Missile Launcher was only on the level "Halo". :confused: I guess the Spartan Laser will take the Anti-Aircraft Weapon's place. The mortar cannons from the Spirits were powerful.
not true, it was also in the maw hidden in the armory behind the normal rocket launchers
I notice this thing is STILL incomplete :|
well the less time their on the forums the better!
less time on forums = more time working on game (maybe) = sooner release date = yay
ah true... i guess that its important that they balance forums time eh?
Well speaking of balancing forum time, how about we get an update on this thread? The last update was on the 21st of last month...
There's your update.
ya...thanks.
fuel rod technology eh? this leads me to believe there will be varients of fuel rod guns. frg's and frc's maybe? (frc= fuel rod cannon from h2)
fuel rod cannon owns. 25 1 hit Kill cannon rounds with a large blast radius (30 R total) and halo fuel rod gun, 25 weaker arcing projectiles with a mediocre blast range.
Do we have to go over this again?
Wait, will the portable turret feature third person view
Lol. MC's obviously using the mounted turret, not the hand-held one. The Hand-held one IS in first person. Masterz said so.
I thought he WAS talking about the mounted one. :o
wait, erm......which people among you guys are part of CMT? (sides masterz)
and back on the subject,
1)how many rounds are gonna be in the chaingun this time?
2)is the recoil really that bad?
3)did you guys use a new skin?
4)did the audio change?
5)does it appear a lot in the new SP?
ok soRRRRY, i meant the porta-turret, replace that for all of those questions
Dole, in the field manual in the beginning, it says that the chaingun and portable turret is in SPv2. The chaingun under human weapons and portable turret under equipment.
Where? :downs:
I see... handheld version of the portable M248 GPMG turret... detatched from its tripod stand... firepower is equivalent to that of the Hog's chaingun... but where does it say its a Chaingun? :saddowns:Quote:
M248 GPMG Hand-heldThe hand held turret is one of the most devastating man-portable UNSC weapons. It is often used on deployed portable turrets, and by removing it from the tripod it can be picked up. It is more or less on par power-wise with the Warthog's chaingun. However, it has only 100 rounds per clip, and the recoil on some variants is so huge it depletes your shields as the rate of fire increases. While putting up a solid wall of bullets, one must be aware of incoming enemy fire. This weapon can tear a brute of any rank apart, while with elites it quickly overloads their shield.
No.Quote:

The chaingun is gone.
Will the Assualt Rifle have the new Halo 3 assualt rifle sound? Its not like i want it more like Halo 3 its just that I'm tired of the old assault rifle sound.
i hope it does.
i hope it has the new halo 3 melee... the high up smack that the br has
Wow, I didn't know that CMT changed their name to H3 Mapping Team. [/sarcasm]
dude... think before you post. most of there content is copied from halo 3 (not ripped). everytime there is another leak\bungie video that shows some of the halo 3 content (reticules, animations, HUD) the cmt tends to strive to create it, and do a good job. all im saying is that i hope they choose to replicate this particular animation
its just that a lot of the stuff in halo 3 is really cool and CMT likes that idea and so they make their own version of it. like the halo 3 AR its not exactly like the halo 3 beta one (it does have 32 shots but it can carry more ammo and the meele is diferant + you can't see the butt of the rifle). There are teams who try to make halo 2 immitations (like the Z_team) and one who try to make halo 3 immitations also but all of thier maps are, yah, :suicide:
That is why i use Mozilla's Firefox because it has a built in dictionary.
Woot Firefox pwns IE!!! Wow, I can't believe that CMT has made all this stuff. They take time out of their schedules to make awesome multiplayer maps and weapons and single player mods as well!
Its the internet. All the kids who use Instant Messaging.
They just don't get the fact that on forums you should use proper grammar.
America in 1900 was more respectable than America in 2007.
Anyways, what were we talking about?
About the weapons in CMT SPv2.
Hell, I use it in instant messaging just so my sanity doesn't slip into something to the effect of this. <3 Dr.@Home :D
Edit: Now on a more serious note, will CMT's Mjolnir Mk. IV biped be making a cameo in SPv2, or was it left in the dust?
The Mk iv was a way too underestimated biped i actually liked it in the classic
chief-green.
[/offtopic] theres a biohazard sing on his backback-tank...wtf
Yeah, instead of the radioactive symbol they put biohazard. I don't know why.
Maybe hes a biohazard to the covenant? :eng101:
whoa.....damn...that pic's very high def.........DAMN! I would love to see the MC have that in SPv2 along with the Spartan II allies
That pic looks really good and its going to look better when I am playing the game! :)
yea i already know that by now, i asked somewhere else, but still, i wanna see the MC have that high-def armor in the cutscenes
^they will probably do that, if you didn't see it in SPv1 then turn your graphic settings up, if you still don't see it then your graphics card is no good.
i did, but i didn't think much of it, the one in SPv1 wasn't that good, i liked the ones in MP better
I have an ATI 9250, and SPv1 wouldn't run unless in -window mode. Sucks, I have to run it at 800 x 600 resolution, unless I can upgrade to another computer or get an adequate PCI graphics card.
I have an ATI 9250 aswell, you may want to put it at 640 x 480 if you want fullscreen. you'll get use to it after a while. I play with it on multiplayer aswell...or you could upgrade, yeah.
I'm getting the one of the new NVIDIA 8 series for around 80-90 bucks. :D:D:D:D Lol thank you google. But I agree they do look better in the MP.

Stop showing off. Why are you even wasting that piece of work on halo 1?
Why is he wasting money on upgrading a nearly perfect PC anyways? It is stupid if you ask me, which translates into me being unimpressed, which translates into a lesser respect for KnTader for his illogical waste of funds on such a trivial matter...
Why are you assuming that I only play halo 1?
I also play :
Halo2: res 2500 by 1600, FPS 60, All Graphics set to MAX (Vista lowered my FPS)
FEAR: res 2500 by 1600, FPS 80, All Graphics set to MAX
DOOM3:res 2500 by 1600, FPS 80-340, All Graphics set to MAX

.....Well you get the point.
Do you have a girl friend? Or a job? Just curious.
I get by just fine on my 7800GT, and won't be upgrading for another year or two.
DO you have something against money? Don't you ever bad mouth money!!!!:XD: ROTFLMAO
Im one of thoughs guys who is a crazy computer enthusist who has to have the absolute best PC hardware. Yesterday when I bought my 2 Nvidia 8800 Ultras, 6800 Quad Core processor, and case the clerk called me crazy.:lol:
I am currently selling my 2 Nvidia 8800 GTXs and 6700 Quad Core to my friend for about $1400 Canadian.
Could build a whole PC for $1400...
I have nothing against money. I love money. I do have something against wasting good money on unnecessary goods, such as a set of GeForce 8800 Ultras that are marginally better than a set of GeForce 8800GTXs.
Dude right now I work at MDG fixing computers. (eg changing damaged hardware and trouble shooting the BIOS and OS)Its a summer job until highschool starts in september. I still have year left then Im off to university.
My girlfriend went to europe 2 weeks ago and she will be there for another 3 weeks.
So I work 3 times a week (basically every other day). And with my girlfriend gone for most of the summer; that leaves me with alot of free time. So I figured why not update my computer (not like I have anything else to do).
Are you happy now Warsaw?
Ok, you are forgiven because you do have a job. Me, I lost my girlfriend, and am too busy to have a job at the moment.
Therefore, I rest my case.
Damn, I play SPv1 at -window mode and 800 x 600 resolution.
To AAA:
CPU speed and graphics make no difference in the speed of the script and the ability for the AI to simulate tactics...
Practice, my friend, practice...:cool:.
Thats what my friend has. He is like friggin' rich (because his dad owns a tree corporation and his mom is a lawyer), he got dual 8800 Ultras in SLI mode, and he had like probably one of the best PCs in the world. He told me that the gameplay was really fast. I think the 8800 Ultras should be fine to play Halo 3 at medium - high settings. Just wait for the 9 series.:)
Eh? I play equally on computers no matter the speed. It helps that it doesn't lag when I go up to elites with the shielding active but it's all the same gameplay for me.
And if you found SPv1 hard I'm kinda questioning your halo skills.
It should be more than enough to run Halo 3 on maximum settings. The problem is all of the developers/porters don't know what they are doing, which forces us, the consumer, to upgrade.
Dude I was playing The Library on Legendary and I the only weapons that I used were the Pistal, Assualt rifle and Shotgun not your cheap BRG, chaingun or sentinal laser. The only time that I actually died was when I shot a carrier form the explosion caused like 30 grenades on the ground to explode in a chain reaction which sent me and all the other flood flying. (so in other words I died because of blaten stupidity):lol:
Also you can increase the game speed in Devmode to make the game more challenging like I do. The speeds go from 0-20X normal speed. I recommend this if you want more fast paised battles; Its also good for thoughs of you that have lag on Spv1 because it looks like it shortens lag time.
One 8800 can run any 360 game more than maxed out (well after they get all the bugs put aside with patches and forceware drivers) let alone 2 in SLI. The 360's videocard only has 512 MB GDDR3 RAM while two 8800's in SLI offers 1536 MB GDDR3 RAM (one 8800 has 768). Thats like 3 times more horse power than the 360 when it comes to the graphics card.
Now the part of any retail computer (without having one custom made) that can't compete with the 360 is the processor. The 360 has a whopping "3 symmetrical cores running at 3.2 GHz". As you all should know, normal retail computers only have up to 2 cores with the intel core 2 duo's and what not. I know nothing about AMD though, so don't bust my chops if they all of a sudden came up with 3 cores. Now notice I kept saying normal retail computers. I have no idea what money is capable of producing. I have the 360 manual right here next to me, so if anyone wants to argue hardware power, keep that in mind. (It was in the same room, and I have way too much time on my hands)
As for me, I only have one 7600GT OC, and I am greatful that I get only decent frames when playing oblivion on medium-high. PC will always surpass the consoles.... if you have enough money to throw at...
Intel has Quad Core CPUs running at 2.6GHz each, and they are easily over-clocked to 3.0GHz. Therefore, the XBOX360's CPU setup has been surpassed.
Well mister smarty pants, thanks for ruining my point.
Sorry, but the world has a right to know the truth. The only advantage consoles have over PCs is that they are more efficient at playing games than a PC of equal or better specifications, because of the operating system in both cases.
Updated with some info about our new sniper for SP2. Whether or not it will totally replace the old one, or only partially like the silenced SMG versus the normal is undecided. For those who are wondering, I wrote in the ejection port part because of huge frusteration over the fact that I see no physical way for the Halo 3 rifle's port to eject a casing the size of the sniper's. (Any gun gurus who wish to disprove this are more than welcome to, I'd love an explanation D: )
Sound cool but I wish he had some pictures of it.....:(
