*potential spoilers*

[Kornman00]

So yeah, I was looking through the game's code because I was on the look for something else, but I found some things relating to campaign.

Don't say I didn't fucking warn you mother fuckers; spoilers.

Don't go posting this everywhere and creating another halomods.com-digg incident or whatever. Ugh. This place is slow already.

I came across some AI types and some were alien to me from earlier games (no pun intended)

pure_form_stealth
pure_form_tank
pure_form_ranged

If the flood forms were scary as humans and covies, I wonder how spooky they'll be in their "pure" form...jesus, they can fucking MORPH. /me is scared.

The scarab has already been announced as fully AI'd, so thats no spoiler (for some). However...

guardian

*gulps* wonder what they guard exactly o.o. I can almost 100% guarantee they are machines (like sentinels) due to other debug code I've seen. Oy. Don't get too close to one...

I'm sure this has been posted before, but some MP map names I've found:
chill - ?
construct - ?
cyberdyne - ?
wallocotton - ?
guardian - (I believe this one has already been announced)
isolation - ?
riverworld - (Valhalla)
salvation - ?
shrine - ?
snowbound - :downs:
warthog inc - (Has already been announced)
zanzibar - :downs:

I is scared to play campaign :saddowns:

Post is padded to protect virgin eyes from future posters.

Extra padding to absorb bladder game leakage? :-3



This is really interesting, those (spoiler) flood pure form things sound scary D:

[Atty]

The maps have mostly been discussion, Zanzibar is last resort, and a few others are announced under different names.

[Kornman00]

I was hoping to see (spoiler cont.) a forerunner ai type tbh :-3

[Dole]

Atty posted a rudimentary list of H3 maps around the time that leaked magazine scans revealed the CQB and EVA aror perms. The list of maps he posted had many no one has heard of before (or since).

Some of those maps coincide with the ones you posted, including:Isolation, Chill (which is assumed to be a remake of Chillout), Construct, Cyberdyne (Cyberdyne Industries from Terminator 2?), and Warthog Inc.

However, Salvation (possibly a remake of Sanctuary?) and Wallocotton are as-of-yet unknown.
However, the mapname "Warthog Inc." was seen briefly onscreen in the ViDOC "Is Quisnam Protero Damno", so that one really doesn't require spoiler tags.

As for Shrine, that's Sandtrap; it was labeled as Shrine in the same magazine scane I referred to above, but its name has since changed. As for Guardian, that is in the latest set of magazine scans (it's in one of these threads somewhere), and it is the spiritual successor of Lockout; it is the same map that Bungie referred to as "Jub Jub" a while ago because the theme of the map is reminiscent of the Ewok's treetop scaffold-huts in Star Wars. (get it, Ewoks always chanted "jub jub"?)

[Dal]

Ooh, good detective work.

Oui.

That map looks beautiful. I'm anxious to see how these other maps came through.

Well thats 9 maps we currently know about

[Sever]

There is not a Gephyrophobia remake - The pictures were of a map named Long and Lean, which has a 'long' arced Forerunner bridge on top, and a 'lean' energy bridge on the bottom.

And Jub Jub is NOT Sandtrap - Shrine is Sandtra, and Jub Jub is Guardian. AND Guardian is NOT a remake of Lockout, it is a map inspired by Lockout.

Here are the NINE maps that the general community currently knows about for Halo 3 (all names are subject to change):

Epitaph
Guardian
Gym Class
High Ground
Last Resort
The Narrows
Sand Trap
Snowbound
Valhalla

If there are any more that have been publicly mentioned, please inform me.

[Dole]

When were Gym Class and Long & Lean mentioned?

[Sever]

http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=12690

[Elite Killa]

Then I guess Long and Lean is the spiritual successor of Gephyrophobia in this case if it isn't a remake.

[Sever]

More like AotCR, seeing that Gephyrophobia was basically just vehicle combat in the middle, and sniper & air support on the edges...

[DaneO'Roo]

holy shit.

I really really hope to see some ancient forerunner beings though.

How would high tech awesome forerunner armor look I wonder :3

[Stealth]

holy shit.

I really really hope to see some ancient forerunner beings though.

How would high tech awesome forerunner armor look I wonder :3
my geuss would be like a suit of armor that looks all most like the armor in Crysis, but a 100 times fast, stronger, lighter, and smarter, with built in weapons maybe, and a hole lot stronger sheilding. In fact, I think a suit of armor as strong and fast as the MC's armor would look like a t shirt and a pear of jeans(SP?).

[DaneO'Roo]

^ um, Forerunner design is ALOT different to crysis, thanks.

My guess would be that it would be very ornamental. We all know the forerunners loved their abstract shapes and objects. I doubt it would be a skin tight suit or anything.

[Stealth]

true, but then again when it comes to space and cold places, it helps to have a suit that is skin tight, and then have some other things ontop of it to look ornamental.

[legionaire45]

true, but then again when it comes to space and cold places, it helps to have a suit that is skin tight, and then have some other things ontop of it to look ornamental.
Your entitled to your theories, but that doesn't seem like Halo's style. That is Crysex.

I imagine it will look similar to the Arbiter's armor, but obviously more suited to whatever form the Forerunners take. I imagine it would be more of a full body suit type thing.

Then again it could also be more of a Sentinal or Enforcer type armor in terms of style, although that might make it a little bit too obtrusive or big.

Just my theories.

[ExAm]

The Covenant have said that their technology is heavily based on Forerunner tech.

[Veegie]

Because all they do is copy it...

[DaneO'Roo]

Maybe the arbiters armour is actually forerunner armour o_O. Might explain alot.

[ExAm]

I don't think the Elites are the forerunners.

[Kornman00]

I'm pretty sure its safe bet now (after the servers have been opened) that we've never seen a forerunner nor are any of the species in the game are forerunner

[KIWIDOGGIE]

:-3i wonder if you can gaurdian glitch on guardian or in h3 at all

[Elite Killa]

^You do know it's Guardian, right?


The Covenant have said that their technology is heavily based on Forerunner tech.
Yeah. For example, those shield doors in Epitaph inspired the Covenant to make the shield doors in Snowbound.

With the backlight of your LCD illuminating your keys?

All the stuff revealed from the 5th server being unlock certainly does seem to prove Kornman's little discovery up there. Now, you said they can morph?

0____0. I is want Spartan Nuke Launcher for real now.

[Kornman00]

Yeah. Morph (three states).

*is scared*

[Nick]

Get out of my closet <:mad:>Well, now that you came out ... he has plenty of room in there.

Oh, by the way, I told kornman Halo 3's true ending.

Oh, now you're just torturing us.
Tell us! Put it in a spoiler tag if you have to!

[Kornman00]

you don't want to know :|

[Jay2645]

Yes I do, come on. Tell me via PM if you have to.

[Botolf]

I'm seriously considering taking a hiatus from the internet until I finish the campaign, don't want the epic ending spoiled by some random goon :tinfoil:

[Jay2645]

Well, don't read the spoiler tags, then.
And also, Kornman, if you do post the ending, please leave some more of that extra-absorbent padding.

[Skyline]

If you want to know the ending that bad then buy it the first day it comes out.

[Nick]

Cortana gets an STD from GS343.

The Arbiter marries the MC and the Spartans from the Dyson sphere (who materialized out of nowhere when the Ark opened).

Lord Hood lives and hooks up with his old, dead friend's daughter, Miranda. He never calls; Miranda feels dirty and used.

Raptor Jesus comes back and purifies the Flood, which are used to filter drinking water from then on.

Humanity merges with the Covenant, mutually decide that Grunts are annoying and feed them all to their new buddy, Gravemind.

A new extragalactic threat arrives and wipes out the Covenant homeworld. Turns out to be the Forerunner; the Ark transported them to a different galaxy and now they're back, pissed that the Covenant stole all of their tech.
Well, there you have it; no point in playing Halo 3 SP now.

I actually like that theory.

[Kalub]

Sounds good to me

[Botolf]

What I don't get is that Epsilon testers were given access to one campaign level, and that was Tsavo Highway, correct? Er, how can you surmise the ending from playing the third level of the game? :p

Kornman, kissy kissy for you forever if you give me halo 3's ending, I want to end some poor kid's life. :)

[Archon23]

Man I would so love to go into a gaming store and yell out Halo 3s ending on its release date. Then run for my dear life.

Like what I did with the 6th Harry Potter. Except this time I'm going to have to deal with 12 year old rabid fanboys.
