Thanks very much, though they're uber blurry... I suppose there's little you can do about that though.

Yeah I took them quickly...plus there's a lot of motion throughout the video.

Portable Covenant Turrent

I've noticed the online videos seem dull compared to the XBLMarketplace version. Bungie.net's version of the documentary will be the best so I would download from Bungie once they put it up.
it looks like the old covenant sniper from the halo 1 when it was on the computer.

That's what I put before, in question form, but someone told me that it was a portable covy turrent so I edited it. I'm still not sure what it is, I'll have to watch the video again.

There was no such thing as a covenant sniper rifle in Halo 1.

Actually there was when Halo was being developed originally for the Mac... before Microsoft bought them.

1. Hay guys! What the hell is up with these graphics?

The graphics you see in the Vidoc are a mixture of things. For one thing, they

They never completely deny that the graphics are unfinished, they always leave a bit of speculation, or in my case, worry.

I 'unno...looks like it's untextured though...and flat. Doesn't really look like a final model, might just be a one-handed placeholder weapon.

I don't ever remember seeing the AR in the movie...I guess I blinked?

I only watched the video once (had to go to lacrosse conditioning

)...but I think he switches to the Shotgun in that part of the video.

Of course. However, that was not Halo 1, contrary to popular belief. Can you use or see a covenant sniper rifle in Halo 1? No. Then is that Halo 1? No.

You should have said "That looks like the Covenant sniper rifle from the pre-Halo 1 alphas and betas when it was originally a mac game".

I thought it was originally a PS2 Game. You all know the video. The one that had a spectre. And the graphics fucking sucked. Also, New shotgun, sweet. Totally sweet.

And I figured I would get a link to the video I am talking about. It is a rather big file so I would recommend saving instead of streaming. I am pretty sure this is it.

Hmmm, I'm thinking Elites on siding with us now? I mean, there are so many different Brute variants that I'm seeing, I'm guessing the enemy is gonna be made up of a bunch of different Brutes. I also noticed that they're leading a pack of Grunts, however the grunts look different. I personally think that would be pretty cool if The humans and Elites teamed up.

Kirk · Post by **Kirk** » Wed Dec 20, 2006 10:41 pm

No, I don't think so.

Geo · Post by **Geo** » Thu Dec 21, 2006 2:51 am

Why do people jump to the conclusion that because the elites are no longer allies with the Brutes, they will automatically become allies with their enemies. It makes no sense, there can, and usually is more then 2 sides in a war.

He only had it out for a second or less.

Umm... well the elites are against the Brutes. The brutes have taken over their positions guarding the prophets and they are no longer apart of the covenant. Now they will be fighting against the Brutes, but who knows if they will "team up" with the humans. The Arbiter may gather a lot of elites and tell them the truth and then they side with you... well, who knows.

Read the description on XBL...Elites are siding with humans. :O

Considering elites are fighting against the covenant from galaxies away, I would beg to differ. The elites are fighting thier own battle.
