Halo 3 speculation

[XboxEvolved]

So it starts here. Who wants 64+ people on one map? Me damnit.

[Carlos]

Me too. Halo 3 is gonna rock. :excited:

Thanks your a tribute to this forum. :mad:

Anyways, rumor has it Halo 3 isn't even next, but rather a game with pirates. Pirates? Shit why not?

[GrandpaT]

Yarr - aye, it be a pirates game next. Ye play as the great pirate, Masterbeard (although there be rumors of a second playable character, the Dread Pirate Blargh). As ye plunder coastal towns and islands, make sure ye watch out for floods! ;)

[Anarchey]

A pirate game from Bungie? A la Sid Meier's Pirates? Or like a first person thing or something else? Does anyone even know? And anyways, I've heard in Halo three you'll have flame throwers and guitars and be able to hold seven weapons on you. That's just what I've heard.

hmm, pirates do sound cool, but I would have to imagine that they are working like crazy one Halo3, I mean, Microsoft alone must be pressuring the crap out of them, not to mention the fans. Perhaps they are working on the pirate game and Halo3 at the same time =). I want no lock on for rockets and I want the original pistal back as a two handed weapon (they can still keep the single handed ones from the second one if they want). And it would be nice to have the sword not be so cheap. New grenades would be awesome too, perhaps ones that had status effects, like slow or crazy. You know, like when you get hit it would invert your controll axises and the like. That would make the game alot more interesting =)

Well 64+ players ONLY if the maps are massive. Maybe something like... 24?

[Anarchey]

Are you kidding? 64+ players in a small little map. Something like Hang em' High, with some hiding spaces on the edges and a big open area in the middle. You coulden't turn around without being shot! That would be awsome.

[XboxEvolved]

I agree. Death+explosions+rockets+loud=Good.

[Rabid]

64 players on a single map shouldn't be too bad, in Delta Force they've got 50 on maps a bit smaller than Coagulation, and it's fun as hell, 64 players on co-agulation would be amazingly, like how i thought it was gonna be, but then was severely dissapointed...

[Quezcatol]

I doesnt want a rushed SP,many questions about forerunners etc that i want to know about in this game.
I rather have it delayed to 2008 if they cant make a great SP lasting 15 hours+
If they gonna end with Halo3,which i doubt then dont just leave us with a game that's not long enough...

[XboxEvolved]

How about the fact that for some reason the Halo 3 trailer on Xbox 3,60 seems to pause and shows a bit of light for a little bit..what is up with that?
