...this should be rectified.

Is this from the demo that they just put up, because thats the E3 Demo. If you check the video featuring the grunt skull the AR has changed.... yeahz

It's as I've said multiple times before:

They are/were probably focusing on just the BSP updates to the game and so they were using different placeholders throughout for things like weapons and such. Soon enough or maybe even now they're probably working on the weapons and all the other details that weren't part of the main part of the project: beautifying the BSPs/levels themselves.

I just wanna get something straight,

Halo Anniversary is a graphics upgrade and there will be no new tags or extended missions etc?

Yes just graphics plus.
Also the build that they showd (you've seen) is 2 months old. They are still showing this build because its the most stable.

I beleive I saw a vid with a new AR and Magnum

What do you think the damages are gonna be to the community when this game hits the market?

This is for the secksbawks, not peecee.

I'm sure it wil be changed. If you noticed, all the new weapons are using old animations, so I'm sure the new models have a few rigging problems that need to be worked out. This was only the first trailer ever released for CEA, so just give them some time :P

I think the tree on the left is more needing of a fix. It's a 2011 game, tree roots have gotten way better than that.

Remember it uses Halo CE's original collision models aswell, they can't really bound out past the original model's colision

The reason why a lot of this can't be fixed to modern standards is because of that "Switchback" feature that lets you deviate between the 2011 and 2001 versions. Honestly, if they updated the animations and added stuff like destroyable vehicles or boarding, then I could care less about the "Switchback" feature.

Same here, i'd like to see a bunch of new features, like armor abilites! >=D

They're just making Halo 1 look pretty.

If you want all the other new features, go play Reach or even the godly Halo 3.

Canonically, armor abilities wouldn't fit because they were exclusive to Reach. And I quote from Bungie reps "A lot of technology was lost on Reach..." However, Boarding and Destroyable vehicles (ala Halo2/Halo3 style) can fit in anywhere.

Well to be fair, how can you be sure that it's a fail? What if he's ejecting the magazine and it has momentum, heading toward his hand which is waiting to catch it?

Plus it's MC. He can do that sort of crap to begin with.

Ah, yeah I forgot about that, =P too bad, I love armor abilities.

That's sad.

Anniversary is gonna suck ass

At least we know the gameplay is good ;)

I wouldn't say that, I don't like Halo 1 that much but i'm liking what i've seen so far here.

Wrong'o they did mention a new added level in the vid doc.

What? No. That's not what they show'd. I saw the SDCC panel, he said it himself at the panel. It was 2 months old, they showd it at E3, and kept the same build cause it was the most stable.

Also about a new level? Whaattt? Its just graphics plus. There will be some new easter eggs, but thats it.

If they mention something about blind wolves, I'll totally buy it.

Its gonna be gay with limited Halo 1 weapon variety and the fat man farting ar

They should atleast make the multiplayer more fun by adding hijacking etc. and add firefight

Hell. Yes.

I'm going to have to ask you to leave this thread until you actually know what you're talking about.

Or read what I'm about to say: The multiplayer portion is through Reach's online, with 7 remade Halo 1 maps being put into the engine for use through Halo: Reach's multiplayer. There will also be 1 firefight map, but yet again that's also for Reach. Don't worry though, 343i is going to release a title update for Reach that will allow them to tweak the weapons more to get a Halo 1 feel for the playlist with the Halo 1 remade maps.

The reason the maps are for Reach is to keep the Halo community together and not split them between 3 games (Halo 4, coming out next year).
