Halo: Reach Discussion

Would have been nice if there was at least a ghost too (even Beachhead has one!). Or better yet, throw a Falcon down on that helipad. I mean, who doesn't want to firefight in a omnipotent air assault vehicle? I know I do.

I got a feeling that what was put on pnet isn't actually the final build however, so we'll see.

[Arteen]

I'd rather see a gauss hog or chaingun hog instead of a rocket hog. We already have Beachhead for that. Why not throw in a revenant too?

[Kornman00]

Or make a device which spawns a single heavy vehicle (ie, anything other than ghosts or geese) of your choice ? Since they can't really go back and add new vehicle parameters to FF variants.

[Pooky]

So the vehicle based firefight map has a single rocket hog...oh fucking boy I'm so excited.
/sarcasm

Also the rocky path area where the Rocket hog was driving is eerily similar to Paradise Lost.

Man you should be excited. Those rockets are so powerful that they can explode right in an Elite's face on Normal and still not kill it!

Devastating!

[Hotrod]

Is it just me, or do I not recognize this helmet? And there seems to be a different chest plate too cause there's a metal ring around the collar.




Taken from some Defiant Map Pack screenshots, credit for the find goes to some bloke on Bungie.net.

EDIT : Oh, and here's the trailer to the map pack. The maps look amazing and the music is a beautiful rehash of older Halo music.

Wasn't that song in Halo legends Origin II? I really liked it.

EDIT: yep:

I agree here. But it's not like there's not room for it in the future. Sure, it may cost another 800 MS points, but I think it's worth enjoyment.

I just started playing Reach again today after about a month of an RPG fix. It felt great. It reminds me why I find Halo to be so awesome in the first place.

[annihilation]

I can't wait for the new maps.

@Hotrod: dlc armor

[sevlag]

nope.avi

the helmet is the EOD (look closely) and the chest is kat's chest piece (sans robotic arm)

[Delta4907]

Kat uses the default chest piece.
