This guy knows so much about Halo 2, i suspect he is one of the Halo 2 downloaders. I know you guys just cant wait until this tuesday, so here they are...http://www.cheatplanet.com/xbcheats/halo_2.htm No info on the flamethrower, though.
Re: Halo 2 secrets revealed quite alot of the top is complete speculation. As I have heard alot of those features are not present (if you dont believe me, you'll have tyo wait only a few more days!) I cant wait for my special edition
thats a multiplatyer map ;-) and yes there is in the single player game :-D but it isnt right to say anymore, dont want to spoil the game, maybe put 'spoiler' in the title? I cant wait for my live edition with the limited edition disk :-D
Ok, I will go through the list later and write up what I know is true. You do understand this will "spoil" the story, as long as you are happy with that. I will edit the title of the thread now to include "spoilers".
Ok, here's a few (crap) images: Twin needlers looking at the second halo Same position with Covenant beam cannon Zoom level 1 Zoom level 2 Me as the covenant "arbiter" (or however its spelled) with Covenant Carbine Same view, but in "stealth" mode Cut scene from Arbiter levels (thats you) I will do the list bit later.
Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig spoiler warning! don't read below if you want it to be a "surprise"! Sargent AJ Johnson (Black Guy) Returns in halo 2... You may have seen him die in the maw on legendary but that was just for laughs. he actually survived the flood and escaped from the halo ring before it blew up and had returned to earth safely. True - Bungie has said AT LEAST... one other halo will be played one, possible 2?. Unconfirmed - There is a possible underground lava mine and cart level. Unconfirmed - You may get to fight on a lunar base and mining facility on the moon. Unconfirmed - There is a possibility to man a massive Covenant siege weapon (the huge purple cannon in the E3 demo). Unconfirmed - Brutes have either 2 weapons a shotgun or a plasma weapon. True - The Covenant have improved AI and now will scurry under ledges, leap over obstacles, and climb up structures. True (to a degree, the still ignore stairs and will try jumping up a 40 foot ledge) - Bungie has also added that much more of the Covenant and Forerunner history will be revealed in Halo 2. True - Covenant will even use flashlights to hunt down the Master Chief in the darkness. False, not seen this at all, and playing as the covenant, there is no flashlight (instead you get a stealth mode) - Marines have also improved and now will also know how to call in support from a Warthog or point out an enemy sniper for an ally to take down. Marines will also work better as a team and flip over objects to create cover. True to a degree, they will commandeer vehicles and use them, but its more basic than its made to sound here. - Elites go in order of "weaker" Blue, Red, White, Black, Yellow "stronger". - Grunts go in order of "weaker" Yellow, Orange , Black "Stronger".. the black one is spec ops. I guess so, never paid much attention, but the yellow Elites are very hard (unless you have twin needlers) - Grenades now have stun effects on enemy's. Not experienced this - The campaign in halo 2 is a lot bigger than the campaign in halo 1 and also harder to complete with improved AI. True, but other Halo 1 experts think this is easier - The Flood will definitely return but it's not known to what extent, or how they will return. They just appear, not a lot is said about them at all - Vehicles have a secondary explosion once already blown up. True, good when you have the tank and want to kill enemies hiding behind vehicles - Cortana looks different and has longer hair. Who? - New gametype is Assualt where you have to place a bomb in your opponents base. True, but not sure if thats the name - THE COVENANT SNIPER IS THE BEAM RIFLE. True - THE CARBINE IS A SINGLE SHOT RIFLE. Debateable - EVERY vehicle can be boarded including the banshee. False, there are plenty of non military vehicles around in some levels, so it depends if you are being pedantic. - New Gametpye called Headhunter, where you try and collect the heads of your victims. True - The Magnum is the new version of the pistol and is slightly less powerful and has no zoom. True - The Brute Shot is a grenade launcher that shoots in an arch unlike the infantry rocket launcher and is harder to hit moving targets. Not experienced this - Map names: Zanzibar, Lockout, Ivory Tower, Midship, Burial Mounds and Waterworks. Dunno - The Carbine and the Human Battle Riffle are very alike. True, but human rifle is more powerfull - Every Covenant vehicle has the boost ability including the wraith tank which is still very, very slow even when boosting. True - Drones are a new covenant enemy that fly and can snipe.. these drones have been nicknamed "buggers" because they are hard to kill cause they move very, very fast, and they will hide pretty much anywhere. God yeah. they suck ass! and they double up as ground troops as well, they will happily walk around on their own, but tend to swarm in the air. - The rocket launcher in halo 2 is a little less powerful but has a faster rate of fire. True - The Needler is a lot more powerful in halo 2. True, double needlers are a must have! - The Gauss Hog is aviable in Campaign Mode and Multiplayer. I have seen the standard hog, but not the gauss version - Brutes have no shield. Sort of true, some do - Prophets are the spirtual leaders of the covenant and there may be a level where u have to assinate one of the prophets. Assasinate? you just punch him in the face... - There also may be a chance that you can fight with other spartans as there are still 5 spartans alive. Unconfirmed - The Sentinal Beam is the gun from the Sentinals in the original Halo game. This weapon has a cutting like laser that is orange-red in color and is not very powerful. It is powerfull, and great against waves of flood. - The following weapons can be duel wielded: Covenant Plasma Pistol, Covenant Plasma Rifle, Covenant Needler, Human Magnum Pistol, Human SMG and there is an unrevealed covenant weapon that can be also Duel Wielded. True - There are a total of 36 possible variations of dual wielding. I guess... - You can sound the horn in the warthog. Unconfirmed - There will be no map-editor attached with the game as there were rumors that there was. True - The Pelican now has a gun turret mounted on the back. True - 343 Guilty spark will be back but no word on his sentinals, but I think they'll return though. Who? - Bungie has removed the online co-op mode from the game... True - In campaign mode the covenant energy sword DOESN'T last forever, though in multiplayer it lasts forever. True, caught me out in the campaign! - There is no health meter in halo 2.. you only have your mark 6 armor which takes in more damage and recharges a hell of a lot more faster. True, but it takes longer to start recharging! be warned, one hit kill when your shield is down... - You can now trade guns with marines instead of shooting them in the head for the beloved sniper. True - The master Chief has high powered binoculars and can use them at any time. He can use the binoculars even when duel wielding SMG's. True - There are levels in the Desert, Jungle, IN THE ARTIC.. Unconfirmed - There has been word on possibly 7 new versions of the warthog. Unconfirmed (god I hope not, it still drives like shit) - You're gunna love this THE PELICAN HAS BEEN CONFIRMED TO BE PILOTABLE, ITS TRUE SOMEONE WHO HAS THE GAME ALREADY, PROB LEAKED HAS SAID THAT THE PELICAN IS PILOTABLE. Also u can pick up warthog and bout 4 people and set them down on a new location. Unconfirmed - It has been said that there is around 20ish levels on halo 2 and they are all extremely long. Expect many weeks of gameplay in this game. Many weeks if you play an hour a day... - The ATV has been removed from the game because it was way to easy to flip, even when barely turning. True -While playing co-op on ledgendary each player only gets one life each so u cant just rush out and die then be spawned back... Unconfirmed
noooo stop it i had a huge fight with myself there!!! Trying to not read it !!! :smt022 i had to look at the pics though and the last one ahhh h :smt022
I dunno 'bout you, but wasn't terribly spoiling to me! Here's the biggest spoiler of all! The Master Chief is *gasp* a Covenant Soldier! :smt042 :smt083
You play as a covenant in story mode? Is there 2 story modes with 10 levels on each? like, 10 human story levels or 10 covenant story levels? What I really would like to do is pilot the "huge laser turret" seen on the game demo. Is there a flamethrower on it?
You play as a covenant in story mode? Yes Is there 2 story modes with 10 levels on each? Yes, but it chops and changes at certain points in the story. like, 10 human story levels or 10 covenant story levels? Yes What I really would like to do is pilot the "huge laser turret" seen on the game demo. Dunno about that bit, may still come Is there a flamethrower on it? Not seen one, certainly not in the campaign so far, and im most of the way through, may be unlockable in multiplayer though.
Now that its out, I bet there are more to ADD!!! :smt023 Such as the covie version of the warthog, and so on.
That huge laser turret ghost like thingy that moves? It seats 3 people, and is from the Covenant. It sucks. :smt042
