Yup Rabbit Food. It's the shadow from lumoria, which is the spectre. It has two variants, a shade and fuel rod.

Ehh, everything breaks canon. The Forerunner concept got overwritten a couple of times, the exact nature of the flood, etc etc. Halo 4 just redesigned the Forward Unto Dawn for poops and giggles. If I worried about it every time I'd have a breakdown by now. Just enjoy it for what it is and don't sweat the small stuff.


Fun fact - Greg Bear's Forerunner Trilogy contains a clue that the Master Chief has a genetic imprint (geas) of the Didact. How's that for an illogical retcon? haha

Are you saying the Chief and the Didact were destined to be enemies?

Only for the driver seat, but when you jack the driver the gunner jumps out.



Anything good for the smart cover trackpad? Not totally understanding left and right click on this thing.

Show me what it looks like. I may be able to help with that.

Shut up you scrubs, Halo 3 is the best game ever. Uwutm8? You wanna 1v1 me? Bring it on.

bean nobody cares and you ruined halo 3 for me

So Masters, the shadow can be jacked? That's good. And I thought it would have 3 variants instead of t 2. Meaning plasma, shade, fuel rod.

It feels like you're asking questions just for the sake of asking questions.

It's something. And 9 more days till TSC:E, it has been a hell of a wait.

I bet they're actually done with SPV3 and CMT is just making us wait to make hype.

I wish.

Yeah, no.
After SPV3 Part 1 is out we everything will be.... different, for now let's wait. So b40's control room area is remade. Was this something for SPV2 but never added?

I wish I knew. I never completed B40, because of the BSP glitch. But I hear that can actually be fixed with Dev commands?

Umm... I think it can't be fixed or you are saying to skip through the corrupted BSP's.
The skirmishers ranks in SPV3 are Minor and Major. How about adding sniper skirmishers to make them more of a threat.

that falls into the major and minors ranks.

Good to know. Halo Reach skirmishers all of them wielded Focus Rifle's and Needle Rifle's.
SPV3, Particle Carbine, Focus Carbine and Impaler (Not sure it will be the final name).

If I knew for sure that it uses Needle-type ammo, I could think of a new name.

OH, question about TSC:E
SPV3 uses quite a few custom-weapons that are non-canon. Will TSC:E include these, or just canon-weapons? (i.e BR, DMR, MA5D)
Edited by RabbitFood on Aug 20, 2014 at 08:52 PM

It will. I feels like TSC:E is using weapons that are not used in SPV3, i.e (Spiker, Covenant Carbine, Fuel Rod Gun etc.) While SPV3 have there replacements, Particle Carbine, Unknown Spiker Weapon, Maybe a Plasma-Based Explosive etc.
I'm just posting what I know.

I also recently found out that while the EMP Grenade in SPV3 has been removed/changed, it remains the same in TSC:E.

Like I said, TSC:E uses content that is not in SPV3, Like the standard brutes that used Power Armor and other content.
The new Needler in SPV3 looks nice, maybe the "Impaler" will have a similar design.

I wonder if it features a similar reload system as well?

Referring to my last question,

Will ODSTs be any stronger than marines, or is it just a cosmetic difference? What about on the level(s) where both are present?


Also, question/suggestion. Will the bumblebee pilot/helmet be remade? If so, it would be a shame to waste. If the helmet itself can be added efficiently as just an armor permutation, it would be nice if each group you rescue on A30 had exactly one marine with the helmet.

Well that's assuming the pilot of each drop pod survived. But yeah, that would be a neat little detail, having a pilot for each pod somewhere, alive or otherwise.

I believe ODST's might have low-power shielding compared to regular marines, to make them last longer. I think I heard Masterz say this once, I'll try and find where the post is.


(EDIT) After looking back at the post, technically Masterz didn't specify whether or not only ODST's would have minor shielding when you asked the question, but he did say, and I quote, (Drumroll please.)
...........
"yep."

As far as game mechanics go, Marines by default do have a form of shielding.

ODSTs are just a visual difference from regular marines. They are together on A10, Marines on A30, ODST for A50 and B30s, and then marines on b40 and c10.

But to clarify, all of them possess invisible energy shielding?

They all have invisible shielding, plus ODST's can survive at least 1 or 2 super combine explosions.
And the Elite Ultras are just ordinary infantry or is it rare to find one?

does the uui disable console? i installed the version just released and now i cant open my console with the ` key

Didn't Masters say there was going to be Thermal Vision?

I think they might've scrapped that idea, as VISR does the trick.

Maybe or it's still testing.
Elite Minor-Particle Carbine
Elite Major-Particle Carbine, Focus Carbine
Elite Ultra-Particle Carbine, Focus Carbine and/or Impaler
Just Guessing, but maybe it's standard to find an Elite Ultra and Grunt Ultra.

sooooo spartan 234... What would happen if masters(insert numbers here) told you spv3 isn't going to happen anymore?
Edited by Darkzealotx on Aug 21, 2014 at 01:23 PM

Don't forget the Needler and Plasma Pistol.
