Fucking 72 guests?

Seriously?

I was a guest, but I've decided to become a member so I can join the discussion.

What about Jun?

And does Curiosity kill the Kat? or carelessness?

to answer your first question:


* kat's death is kinda sudden and unexpected...not my most favorite scene meh
* there's also a gold colored visor you can buy after purchasing all other visors
* someone mentioned some other spartan team. noble team is the only spartan team that appears during the battle to defend reach

Blahh. it doesn't make sense for Bungie to include Halsey and no other Spartans. That's disappointing.

Yes but what other visor colors are there besides Silver and Blue and what do they cost in cR?

Woah. Could you answer another question for me? How many helmets are available in Reach, and what is the most expensive?

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.

Hey Che, thanks for all the new info. On behalf of the rest of the Halo community I'd like to say I'm very greatful that at least somebody with an early copy of this game is sharing information at will. 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.

Thanks.

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.

Hey Che, when are we going to be able to see a full video walkthrough campaign. It's happened for other games that have been leaked (usually courtesy of the fucking French *ahem* ODST *ahem*) Will it happen? Right now all the stuff on youtube is the crappiest quality humanly possible. Thanks a shit ton for all the stuff you've told us alread, I'm really grateful.

[jcap]

Yeah, I'll host the videos if he makes them. Except unlike the ODST French leak, these will be in English!
