Dear God, please not. Worst idea ever.

Better idea than Natal support :P

Yeah, I second that. A lack of on-rails portions is partly a reason why I've always been able to replay Halo's SP and still have fun.

I went on the Bungie site and looked at the Spartan renders... fucking insane.

And the Marines look ridiculously good as well - makes Halo 3's model look like it was on the original Xbox.

Read the latest WU for a nice FAQ. They also got some sound samples of human weapons as well as the nades.

Ahh Snap!

Myth: Sketch called the Falcon, the “Warthog of the Skies.” Does that mean we’re going to get to pilot it in campaign and multiplayer?

Truth: Yup.

What do you mean worst idea ever? It was already confirmed :P

It's in the game haha, or am I just mistaking what you really mean?

What an awesome update.

New weapon sounds are INCREDIBLE :D

The AR alone just fixes a lot of issues I had with the impact sound of the weapon. The ricochet sound is amazing too :D

Oh and finally to grenades actually sounding like they do serious damage.

where did you hear the new weapon sounds?

Yeah...the weapon sounds are pretty fantastic...the AR especially. Sounds pretty badass now.

The screenshots that recently surfaced were taken from a pre-alpha build that was created last November. A lot of work has happened since then and a lot more work is yet to come. The environment art team is continuing to polish and beautify everything, including adding plenty of decorators. We’ll hopefully be able to share some progress soon.

I'd eventually like to see some more recent screens of the same shots as the screens we already have to compare.

Nevermind, found the weapon sounds finally. Yes, they do sound FAR better than the previous weapon sounds. I'm really excited to see how the new AR and BR plays. The single shot semi-automatic aspect sounds really promising. Like the pistol from Halo CE.

Can't wait to see the new grendade explosions.

Truth: Halo: Reach is NOT a Natal title and is being developed expressly with the traditional Xbox 360 controller in mind.

Thanks and goodnight :D

That doesn't necessarily confirm the game won't have Natal functionality, it simply confirms the obvious, that Halo Reach is not being designed primarily as a Natal title. A lot of people came to some crazy conclusions due to the position of the crosshair in the only First Person screen we have of this game. Some thought it might be a sign that Reach only uses Natal. No joke, people on their forums thought that lol.

For example, I don't expect any pure Natal title to use the controller in any capacity. Based on that statement, I'm not at all convinced that the game won't use Natal in some form or another. Seeing the word only tossed in there would have gone quite a ways to convincing me that there would absolutely be no Natal support in Reach. As written, that statement simply says to me that Halo Reach being designed for the traditional 360 controller takes top priority above all else.

I'm especially suspicious when I see that Microsoft has all of a sudden scheduled their x event for next month. I'm still looking for how Natal's Launch ends up being as big as a new console launch to Microsoft, without Halo playing a major part.

Bungie is also a big fan of their checkbox (and in some cases useless) features, so I'm convinced that if Reach DOES use Natal, we won't be finding out until they actually have an opportunity to show it off at some major event like E3.

It won't use Natal, just drop it Optimus.

I have to say, Bungie are really open about their game this time around, unlike Halo 3. I'm liking it so far, but if it continues I'll go into blackout mode just to have that sense of amazement exploring the game the first time around.

Just drop it? I'll drop it when the game is out and Bungie hasn't tossed in yet another feature to fill the checkbox ;)

I think the Natal checkbox will be too much for them to resist.

Yea, they are showing the game much sooner than I originally thought would be the case.

I want head tracking!! If the Natal was used for nothing but that. If your playing single player it would be like playing in real 3d. I want that functionality. Simply tracking the head should eat too many resources either...

I hope we'll get one at the X event next month.

Personally, this is all i want. Give me an awesome Halo game with great presentation, great gameplay, a nice and somewhat weighty helping of Halo fiction that rewards those for having read the books.

Finally, I want, with however much action they got going on, for it to run amazingly with no performance issues.

Not too unreasonable.

I don't think the game will utilize Natal either, simply because there's no meaningful use for it in Halo. You can keep referring to that checkbox, but Bungie still knows better than to add a feature with virtually no real use at all. I just don't see the logic in it, other than exploiting the success of the series to be the flagship for Natal.

Saying that, we won't know until proven otherwise.

Useless checkbox features? If you're talking about split-screen / photos / videos there will be a lot of people who disagree with you on that. Regardless of your opinion on them, they are used an awful lot. Besides, this useless checkbox feature will mean they have to give up a hardware thread and RAM.

That sounds pretty explicit to me. We will see. I'm guessing this X event would be a beta reveal of sorts leaving that to come out around March time.

Yea, I would normally see that statement as a done deal, but with all the "explicit" statements I've seen from various devs and publishers in the industry since 2005, nothing surprises me anymore and I'm tempted to be suspicious about practically everything until it's completely squashed. With how skeptical I am right now, I would need to actually see them say that Reach is ONLY being developed with the traditional Xbox 360 controller in mind. Not a Natal title and the word "expressly", to me, provides some wiggle room the likes of which even the Bioshock dev didn't provide themselves when they initially stated that Bioshock would absolutely not see a PS3 release (something to that effect) or when Capcom originally said that DMC4 would ONLY release on the PS3 or when Square said FF13 was only a PS3 exclusive.

Yea, I'm not a fan of the 4 player split screen or even the 2 player split screen. I suppose I can get behind 4 player co-op, but I personally wouldn't miss even that. I think there is certainly place for 2 player co-op, however, but then going back to what I already said, you gotta respect Bungie for doing their own thing and not allowing what other devs do to determine how they design their games. Then again, not many developers have the luxury of knowing just how monster a sales success their title will be even before its release ;)

So be it theater mode, 4 player split screen, 4 player co-op, photo mode, I guess they will do Bungie the best way they know how. :)

You know, now that I actually think about it, if Reach's character models and new momentum based animation system are as good as I'm hoping them to be in the final game, then a theatre mode may not be so bad at all, especially if the explosions and other subtle touches have seen the kinds of improvements that they suggest they have.

And don't forget, Head tracking has nothing to do with "control". It would just give it a 3d effect, which would make my year...

Head tracking on a screen that's 15 feet away from you? How much are you moving your head to look at objects on your TV?
