Right now it uses the H3 sound.

Sweet. Also have you changed the melee animations for the pistol, smg etc...Or do you plan to change them?

[ICEE]

i like the pistol animations. makes me feel special since i have them. lol

[HalosGhost]

Hey Masterz, I was wondering, did it end up that the spike nades are alt fire for the spiker, or are they just not included. Also, are you planning on adding in the H3 gadgets (portable grav-lift, bubble shield, mines, etc.)

[Ki11a_FTW]

i know this isnt about spv2 but...

that map Arteen made a while back.. the covenant exterior one, is that evergoing to be released?

[Edward Elrich]

Don't know about the spike grenade. As for the Halo 3 gadgets, who knows. The portable grav-lift seems kind of useless, the only level it would seem sensible on would be 343 Guily Spark (and maybe The Maw). Any other level doesn't make sense. (on the Silent Cartographer, it would take you about ten more seconds to walk around and up the ramp...) It's confirmed that the bubble shield won't be in, and as for the trip mine, I'm assuming not. (besides, it would be extremely hard to script these things, ane it probably wouldn't work too well anyway.)

my question: Is the new weapon player-wieldable? Because I saw in the collective information thread that the highest-ranking hunter had a "classified" weapon.

It's confirmed that the bubble shield won't be in,

That was a LONG time ago, before we even knew how it worked.
The main reason it was cut was because bipeds couldn't walk through the bubble, and you would be stuck inside while your enemies surrounded you until the shield ran out.

Considering the Bubble Shield is now permeable and you can escape before you're trapped, that might change.

My question:

Will we have female marines as teammates?

Question 2:

Why did you ban keilg2? I wanted to -rep him for his previous useless threads that I just found

[Masterz1337]

No female marines.

I wasn't aware he was banned.

[Haloking365]

It has no stun, and has such low skin damage it doesn't even ping enemies. What's dangerous about it is that it strips your shields so qucikly, then it just takes any type of brute spike device to kill you.

I know that you guys focus on gameplay over realism, but why would the covies develop a shield-effecting oonly gun? Its not like they were just fighting spartans with the shields. Right? They would be mostly fighting un-shielded marines, no?
