SPNKr M19 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 This thread was made to post any news or speculation on what this project could be and who's behind it? ____________________________________________ My first guess is it is one of the games Bungie said they would make in order to split from microsoft.

Evil Demon55 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 halo 4???????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPNKr M19 Posted September 14, 2008 Author Share Posted September 14, 2008 halo 4???????????? Perhaps. There is still that mysterious ending after Halo 3 on legendary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pointless Dan Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 halo 4???????????? I can't see it being Halo 4 in the sense of it following the Master Chief, but I think it will be set in the Halo universe, maybe following a squad of Marines or something like that. I think it would be good to see a GRAW style squad shooter, but with a better interaction with vehicles and more open maps. I just hope another company come in and try and make a Halo clone just to make easy money off the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPNKr M19 Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 I just hope another company come in and try and make a Halo clone just to make easy money off the name. I would rather no more Halo than a cheap knockoff made without help from bungie. It could follow one of the other spartans maybe Kelly or whatever here name is, the one that went of with Dr Halsey after Halo CE. I still like my idea of them working on the mysterious ending to Halo 3 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiegamer Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Prequel to Halo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPNKr M19 Posted September 20, 2008 Author Share Posted September 20, 2008 Prequel to Halo. Yes. Good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritchie Goodall Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 The prequel to halo would be about when they first come into contact with the Covenant. Could be a good idea. In the first novel they follow the master chief when the other spartans go down onto reach and it could be interesting to hear the story of the sparatans that did go to reach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPNKr M19 Posted September 20, 2008 Author Share Posted September 20, 2008 the story of harvest upto ? is being told by halo wars. but a prequel or maybe Halo 1.5. Just joking about the title but there is a good story from the novels about how Master Chief makes it back to Earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuggersAssassin Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Yeah I noticed this on Bungie this morning i was really confused. I heard a lot about the arg and stuff. Though my friend said after reading the books the vehicle chief is on is in bound to planet onyx where a few of the last spartans remain. Maybe its time to see what its like on onyx with others. No more halo maybe onyx haha? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a quick wuestion though, are the spartans on Onyx from the Spartan II program or Spartan III, because they never met each other and John (Master Chief) being a Spartan II meeting the Spartan III's would be weird. Maybe Dr Halsey is there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C 777 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 The new game is called Halo 3 Recon. It is an expansion to Halo 3. In the game you get a new set of achievents (1000GS). This time you are an ODST, and there is a new campaign, it is set in New Mombasa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teh Rofl Knief Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 So this is essentially Halo 2.5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPNKr M19 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) So this is essentially Halo 2.5? From what I have heard, yes. You enter orbit just after Regret jumps away from New Mombasa in Halo 2. This is still supposed to run on the Halo 3 engine and you can't play as the ODST in online multiplayer. That will be left to the spartans. The mythic map pack is set to release early 2009 and more maps to come with Halo 3: Recon. You should watch the trailer that they released on bungie.net (visit here and follow links), it shows the ODST wielding a new gun to. Gotta love bungie. Can't wait till fall 2009.

Inferno7000 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Some very nice ideas a prequel would be sweet, to see how it all started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank9080 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Some very nice ideas a prequel would be sweet, to see how it all started. Just read Halo: Fall Of Reach it is a great book and tells you about the rise and downfall of Spartans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPNKr M19 Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Bungie will release two expansion packs for Halo 3 in the upcomming year. There will be Halo 3: Recon and the mythic map pack. The mythic map pack contains: Assembly (Purple Reign) Citadel (unknown covenant-set map) Heretic (unknown covenant-set map) Orbital (human-set map aka Moonbase) and will most likely earn you all the remaining achievements post TU2. Halo 3: Recon, however,comes complete with a new campaign, and you will play as an ODST. The story starts with you entering orbit just after Regret jumps away from New Mombasa in Halo 2. This is still supposed to run on the Halo 3 engine and you can't play as the ODST in online multiplayer. That will be left to the spartans. However being a bungie game, I'm sure they will release more stuff for online play. The release dates are currently: Mythic maps are coming out in January 2009. Halo 3: Recon is coming out in October 2009. You should watch the trailer that they released on bungie.net (visit here and follow links), it shows the ODST wielding a new gun to. Gotta love bungie. Can't wait till fall 2009. About the achievements, no one at bungie has been very clear on this, however, I believe, from what I've heard, after the mythic map pack releases, all Halo 3 achievements should be obtainable. Halo 3: Recon should come complete with a new 1000g. That's all I know for now. You really should watch the trailer. It is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPNKr M19 Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I don't like GRAW. I like the unrealistic gameplay from Halo, being superhuman, and i hope they manage to bring that aspect in somehow. Maybe he is a Spartan from Spartan I or Spartan III (maybe lost Spartan II) but they stuck him in an ODST suit because they were running out of resources. ^^^^^^^^^^^ I like that idea! ________________________ Don't forget though the marines in the Halo games can still take a bit of punishment and seeming as though ODST's are super-marines there must be a higher threshold for pain then graw or vegas. To me those games serve their purpose, but there are enough games and companys that make those games. Halo has always been a bit easier to play and where other games are about stealth, Halo is about your timing (mele, grenade). It would be nice to have to strategise a bit more (like that section in Tsavo Highway; where there are tons of brutes, and you get pinned down for ages because of two phantoms full of the apes), but no where near the point where advancing 10 meters becomes impossible.
