Because it deviates from the final content we've already experienced so much and grown bored of. D:

I can understand that. In lockout, they allow'd you to spawn a banshee in the middle, and at the bottom of the gravity lift there is a human turret.
Goddamn, we ended up playing slayer with 300 overshields and regular weapons for about 45mins with only three people. It was fun shit. At the very end, I took the banshee to the very top of the structure and I figured out that I can land it in a certain spot to where it would shake causing it not to respawn automatically. I waited until I had max sniper rounds and got a energy sword and went up there and was sniping the other two guys while they were shooting each other. Takes about three headshots with 300 shields to kill someone though (which makes sense). After I would run out of ammo and nades, I would switch to ES (since I had no other ammo) and swoop down to the sniper rifle pickup. I had some VERY close encounters doing such as the ES is not like it is in the retail.

is that the flame thrower i saw in that vid?

[leorimolo]

I think they should release for the hell of it

[Llama Juice]

lol the beta shared.map ? silly

The mongoose could be released since it was fully completed (minus gameplay tweaks of course) but the rest of the stuff is not even half done, one of those weapons doesn't even have textures So no point in releasing those, unless some creative members of the community can update them

"fully completed" is relative.

IMO, the thing isn't "fully completed", even after I set it handle just like the warthog (assuming the warthog was the size of a mongoose). Either the Havok integration was fixed by released or the mongoose's physics definition is fucked up. I blame the suspension for part of it, since it likes to grind the ground after flying off higher ground onto lower. Also, the physics likes to die after you sit on it for a while and not doing anything. Sometimes, you also have to get on and get off, then get back on to get the thing moving. Later I'm going to see if that can be remedied with flagging some other cases which wake the mongoose's physics. Waterworks with a mongoose is pretty cool though, and those destroyable rocks are hawt.

The falcon would be awesome to see finished. Too bad we can't see what Bungie had in mind...

Functionality of the disintegrator is there. However, its cosmetics isn't.

Flame thrower's cosmetics are there partially. However, its functionality aren't at all. It can't hurt anything

Ye old Covenant turret is there too, but I have no cares to step foot in that thing again, thats what Halo 1 is for.

I have no intention of releasing any of the alpha\beta related content as its Bungie's IP and its non-retail content only there for testing. I'm sure there are some people at Bungie who don't like the idea that I posted videos of these things, so I'd rather not tick said people off anymore (want to to avoid any fire fights in October ).

[meepster]

Total, noob, question, on my part. But are these hard to get in game?

[Flyboy]

God, I can't wait to fly a H2 pelican.

[Kornman00]

Into H2V? Yes, the alpha tags are MUCH different from the current retail format. Some not so different, but its a pain as it appears bungie didn't have their versioning system in place yet (jul 04), so I can't make automated code that knows how to handle old definitions of some tags, I have to do it myself...

[Ki11a_FTW]

where did you get these from..?
