HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Here is a little bit of stuff I noticed when watching the halo 2 tournament.
1) Grenades can now chain react when on the ground
2) Frags don

Copyed this off another site eh? Well cool info. I dont like the No Health. H2 will be really cool!

They are probably gonna fix the health issue.

plus, you cant shoot the pistol (yes thatsa right- the pistol is back in halo 2!!!!) can't shoot when zoomed

hey wat did the **** stadn for when it was talking about the guys voice...

omg what a noob, this site blocks out cuss words

The MC has always been able to climb steps. The model actually has invisible parts that make the steps into a ramp, really. It was on the POA.

Don' think they are.
I read at MLGpro that they wont and just having the shield thing, you won't die as easy.
Don't ask how that works btw

Grenades already chain react, just prime a frag grenade and toss it into an area you pick up plasma grenades. In Campaign, anyways, they all blow.

HEy, but I think he means that frags will explode...

frags already chain-splode.

wanna test it? make the pistol shoot the cyborg biped (not cyborg_unarmed) and kill the biped, do this allot, then make abunch and dont kill em, throw a nade into the group, and level the map

Actually, grenades only chained in champaign (or however you spell it), but not in multiplayer.

MUST...HAVE...CHAIN...EXPLOSIONS...IN...HALO.............2...

In HaloCE, if you spawn a cyborg biped and kill it, it will drop chainable frags. Otherwise no grenades will unless in campaign.

has any1 seen the vid for halo 2 zanzibar where they are playin a huge ctf game?! its SOOOO AWESOME!!! if u havent seen it and u wannt to email me or aim me

i heard the health heals auto matically over time.....once your shields recharge....

not too sure if this is exactly on topic, but here i go...

has there been any indication of halo 2 being ported to pc/mac, or is it just assumed that it will find it's way onto pc?

dude, you know nothing about Halo 2. the things you listed are just basics. you missed alot of stuff. heres some more new things. . .

-When you create a server, it never stops (it would eventually) because once you start and host a game, once you leave, you either pick somebody with the best connection to take over as host, or like if you just turn off your xbox or it gets disconnected then the game pauses for about 3 sec, and the game automatically picks someone with the best connection to be host, and then you continue with your game.
-for BR, when zoomed out, it shoots 3-round-burst, when zoomed in, only shoots single fire
-Masterchief has customizable armor parts that you can choose the color for
-you can put clan logos on the MC
-Wraith available
-New model for rocket-hog
-both ghost and warthog have faster acceleration
-warthog actually sounds real, it shifts through several gears
-banshee is similer to Crimson Skies, it can do ariel manuevers (i.e. tricks, it can do like barrel rolls and flips and junk)
-Scorpian (tank) has a new "skin"
-Wraith has tiny boost ability
-mc can use brute weapon, it is actually a nade launcher (very limited ammo, like 3 shots) and a rusty blade on back wich causes more melee damage (takes long to make it fair)
-*rumor* needler has more melee damage because of the needle ammo that sticks out


**not in game** a new Plantronic Halo 2 special edition, translucent green (see-through) Xbox Live headset coming out in October for $49.99

that souncs awesome i think they should include the headset with the limited edition box.

yeah i know. those of you who get the Official Xbox Magazine should know what im talking about when i mention all that stuff up there. And also if you dont get OXM, get it. seriously, almost every issue they mention something about Halo 2. its awsome, and it comes with a demo disk where you can play demo games. Im waiting for the Halo 2 demo

and by the way, Halo 2 will not be coming out for PC or MAC. I know this how? Bungie mentioned that Halo 2 is XBOX Compatible only. Halo 1 was XBOX/PC/MAC Compatible, yes, i know, i know. its true. i know that bungie is making a mistake by not having halo 2 for PC or MAC, but hey, what can i say? the truth is the truth, and there is nothing we can do about it.

oh yeah, and i forgot to mention,
- when you kill somone it says, like normal "You killed (name of player) "
then, when you kill somone by meleeing them (punching) it says "You Beat Down. . ." then when you kill somone by running them over with a vehicle it says "You slaughtered. . ."

sry for the double post, im in a hurry
