By the way, I don't care that they are called Turrets, I know, but I'm just talking about a gun based off what Bungie calls "Covenant Turrents". I realize it is most likely a typo and not a name created by Bungie.

Halo 3 pre-alpha was given to some US soldiers.

There's 2 Myspace videos of them playing...so they're not hoaxes, and if they are, then someone did a pretty damn nice job.

I don't know the video codes, but they posted them over on Maxconsole:

Pretty kool.
I still don't get why people keep dissing the graphics (I was on maxconsole, some cowboy[lotsa numbers too] guy from the army posted all the stuff and everyone kept saying it looks bad).
To me they look great! I only dislike the contrails shown in et tu brute

You don't have to be good at something to be able to offer your opinion on it.

This further backs up my idea of their being variations of the AR. In one of those screenies you can cleary see one is two-toned and has a reduced clip size, of around 30 and the HUD indicates that variant is more accurate.

How about this: lets not say, "make better ones and post screenies." Why dont we all just accept the fact that Halo 3 is still in an Early Pre-Alpha stage, graphic wise. Even Bungie said this. The Graphics will be better when the game is near completion. (I'm only assuming this, correct me if im wrong... Please.)

STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE GRAPHICS!!!!!!

Veegie, if you care that much about proper Grammer, than obviously you are a perfectionist. I am too, but i focus on the bigger things, like hygeine. (i spelt that wrong, huh?)

Fixed

Anyways, I think it looks great as it is. For being in only Pre-Alpha it looks amazing. I'm very excited to see what the final game will look like.

I read on one site that the clip has been reduced to 32 for the AR.

Xiion · Post by **Xiion** » Mon Jan 01, 2007 12:22 pm

ITs on reduced to 30 for the clip on the AR. i jsut counted from the picture of the soldiers playing. its the one with the guys thumb over the camera lens.

rofl, Xiion, you can clearly see on that VERY picture that the AR's ammo counter says 32.

I win.

I did say "around 30" which indicates I wasn't giving a precise number =p

Im pretty sure Everybody can comprehend what he just said

From what I see, the new HUD Looks pretty cool, Im just not a big fan of that AR Reticle; Although it is still in pre-alpha, I hope it doesn't get put in the final.
