Just hangin' out...
Sometimes, it's nice to just climb a tree and enjoy the scenery from 20 feet off the ground. Of course, it helps when there are leaves... and when you're not dead. Check out Tom Wittman's 'up in a tree' pics in our Gameplay Tricks section. (Louis Wu 21:48:33 UTC) (permalink)
I wanna see Cortana's!
And another egg is added to the Halo Easter Egg page. As far as I know, nobody's noticed this one yet - and I have to give credit to Bungie's Mordia, who let it slip in casual conversation (he assumed it was common knowledge) - but it's pretty funny nonetheless! It should go without saying that just reading this page will spoil you if you haven't played yet... but I'll say it anyway. (Louis Wu 20:25:26 UTC) (permalink)
Halo SETI Team 14 day stats posted
The Halo SETI Marines take on on the chin with the loss of R3ality, who left with 870 units... but they remain in 61st position in the Battle of the Teams. More Marines submitted units in the past 2 weeks than is normal - nice going! Were you among the workers? Check the 14 day stats page to see. (Louis Wu 19:13:26 UTC) (permalink)
One Ghost, coming UP
Electus Unum has created a fun little movie (30 seconds, about 5 megs) showing a neat trick - he puts a Ghost on top of a Blood Gulch Base with no outside help. No extra people, no rockets, no grenades, no nothing... except the Ghost. We've posted it to our overflow space at mac.com... 5 megs on HBO's puny pipe scares me. :) We'll add this to the Tricks page sometime tomorrow, probably. Update: a number of people have written in or (in one case) posted to the forum with the info that the Ghosts simply climb the ramps to the base roof, if you hit them right - no terrain bouncing needed. Still - this is a pretty fun vid. :) (Louis Wu 08:47:46 UTC) (permalink)
Banshee tutorial posted
At the end of December, Enzyver posted a series of pictures showing how to collect the first Banshee on Assault in the Control room. Well... they've now been submitted here, and added to our Gameplay Tricks section. (I've reduced the images to fit a more common browser size, but if anyone wants the original images, they're linked from the individual pages (along with sizes).) Once again, apologies for the backlog - there's only one of me doing this stuff right now! (Louis Wu 04:25:19 UTC) (permalink)
