[keilg2]

Here is a Screenie, what i want to know is what is around his belt?

That is prerendered, correct? Because the Halo Wars footage looks nowhere near that nice. The picture is still awesome, though.
Also, the stuff on his belt could be explosives, or ammunition, or food pouches, or grenade holders, etc.

true, but it looks more like a new grenade type or weapon or something

"or it could be for :beer:

[Stormwing]

wow! that looks very cool. a little different, but like...a 'Lost Spartan' kinda cool. Loving the cupholders. ;)

I wonder, what's that blue shoulder armor?

[keilg2]

probably decoration remember that they can "prep their armor as they see fit"


or some kind of Meele shield!

Probably so everyone knows hes the like leader of the group.

Kickass stuff, this game looks amazing, not a MASSIVE fan of RTS, however I still like them (AOE and total annihilation owns) an this is an RTS + halo which makes me want to play :P

Also, in the stuff ive seen it havent ever seen any of the characters zoomed in enough to tell if that pic is pre rendered, the gfx are pretty sexi though

[keilg2]

some +rep wouldn't hurt then ;)

[PlasbianX]

Are you sure that pic is from halowars?

[Dole]

Yes. It was posted by Ian Joyner a while ago. Veegie found it and posted it on HBO.
After Bungie found out the entire community had access to these pictures (they had the Elites also) Joyner had to take them down.
However, by that time I already had both of them in my Pictures folder. If you want I could show you the Elite.

Why? I'm the one who saved it to my Pictures folder and put it on Imageshack. You just re-posted it.
Even if you did save it and put it on Imageshack, I still can't see how that entitles you to reputation. :eyesroll:

[BobtheGreatII]

I don't know.... I'm sorta excited for it.... But it just almost doesn't have the halo feel to it. The models look too different.

[TeeKup]

It's stupid. Halogen was better.

Please for the love of god do not turn this into another "Halogen is better than Halo Wars" discussion. PLEASE!

Oh God, please listen to him.

Besides, the Halogen team started a NEW mod with a custom IP using a lot of the Halogen stuff they made. Since that was the really cool stuff anyways, there's no reason to gripe anymore.

HALOGEN IS BETTER THAN HALO WARS.

[Abdurahman]

HALOGEN IS BETTER THAN HALO WARS.

HELL YEAH!

[Mr Buckshot]

Oh god keilg2, you are back. I hope you actually learn from those -reps...if you can improve we won't hate you, I'm serious. Keep acting the way you did before your ban, and I wonder if you can have more than one red bar under your name...

Anyway, Halo Wars looks awesome. Although I have an X360, I wish the PC release would come at the same time as the console release because online MP is a large part of RTS's and I don't have/won't buy an XBL account. I'm fairly sure a PC port will come, just not right now.

come one guys, Halogen is dead. I agree, it looked awesome, was free, and ran on lower end PCs (being a C&C Generals mod) but it's not like any of us got a chance to playtest it (unless some of you are beta testers or team members). I will miss it though.

[keilg2]

Perhaps you should ask keilg2 about that... or should I say Kelzorz?

That was my brother's account lol. how did you know about that? :eek:


Go do what your sig says.

Believe me... i HAVE tried :saddowns:

Every time i try to do something nice for the community Someone flames me for it and it turns into a 'flame war' :maddowns: and then the community hates me. maybe i should stop doing things for the community!:shake:

[rossmum]

That was my brother's account lol. how did you know about that? :eek:
Bullshit it was. They both have the same awful spelling, and your sig on the Xfire forums has some shit like "Master Sergeant Keilg2/Kelzorz reporting for duty".

Nice try.

funny story about that you see my brother and i share an Xbox live accound and it is called "Kelzorz" so we both have a "race" to see who can make thier account called Kelzorz first. truth is my brother never uses the XBL account so i go around calling myself Kelzorz.

and BTW: i make the keilg2 account before we got the XBL account so it wasn't called Kelzorz at the time

Moved to the right board. Now stop it and get back on topic. I'd personally like to see the render of the elite.

zeph snip: I said to stop it.


well the elite render will be on the covie side probably and maybe have 2 versions... Plasma rifle and needler variants as we saw in the trailer.


Oh and BTW: Zeph, what animal is that in your avatar? any why did you move this to tech talk? it should be under off topic

[Archon23]

Thats a cat. And this should technically be under tech talk.

[Dole]

...That would be a kitten... [/ellipses]
No j/k, it's actually a pygmy rhinoceros.

at first i thought it was some kind of rodent but then i realized that wasn't possible, and it doest look like a cat/kitten.

[Boba]

For the people who haven't noticed, the Halo Wars (http://www.halowars.com) site has been revamped.
This game looks horrible guys. :maddowns:

[Dole]

...and it doest look like a cat/kitten.
Are you sure? Or is it just a kitten that's a few days old?
