[QUOTE=Xionasis;23851849]I remember doing such things with pelicans on CTF on Avalanche. [/QUOTE] Hornets, you mean. Pelicans would just be overpowered.

[QUOTE=the_killer24;23851922]Hornets, you mean. Pelicans would just be overpowered.[/QUOTE] Yeah, got the names mixed up.

I ordered the legendary edition. I know it is alot of money, but i had several reasons. The limited edition is about £60, and i was going to get that anyway. For £30 more i get a awesome statue, a flaming helmet, and a really nice box. Flaming helmet - might not use it, but atleast i have the option to

[QUOTE=Xionasis;23851849]When are these armours going to be release (The waypoint ones)? What I mean is, have I missed any?[/QUOTE] No, it's going to be post-launch. They'll probably announce it on BNet when they do.

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;23852088]No, it's going to be post-launch. They'll probably announce it on BNet when they do.[/QUOTE] Alright, thanks.

How would you unlock things through Waypoint???

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;23851831]Actually, according to Bungie, any armors that you get from limited editions or from Waypoint are going to be exclusive to that medium. They said they're going to have a lot of armor available through waypoint, but they'll never put it on the store.[/QUOTE] Don't you download Waypoint off of XBL? And that^

[QUOTE=BmB;23852925]How would you unlock things through Waypoint???[/QUOTE]Very carefully. :razz:

[QUOTE=fish puncher;23853091]Don't you download Waypoint off of XBL? And that^[/QUOTE] Yeah, you do. Sometimes Waypoint has DLC like avatar clothes. Bungie says Waypoint will also release armor exclusive to the game, because the coding on the disk doesn't prevent that, unlike Halo 3. [editline]01:01PM[/editline] [QUOTE=BmB;23852925]How would you unlock things through Waypoint???[/QUOTE] They had an achievement tracker for Halo 3, ODST, and Halo Wars, which got you Avatar Clothes if you unlocked a certain amount of achievements. I'm assuming it'll be the same thing.

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;23853134]Yeah, you do. Sometimes Waypoint has DLC like avatar clothes. Bungie says Waypoint will also release armor exclusive to the game, because the coding on the disk doesn't prevent that, unlike Halo 3.[/QUOTE] So if I download Waypoint right now, I'll get exclusive armor permutations?

[QUOTE=fish puncher;23853257]So if I download Waypoint right now, I'll get exclusive armor permutations?[/QUOTE] No, not right now. They didn't say when the armor would be coming. I mean, you'll get exclusive armor eventually, yeah, but not right now. Well, maybe right now, but probably not.

That's a good idea, I'll have a reason to use Waypoint more than once a year.

I used it to watch Legends but then I missed Origins which was the only one I was really looking forward to so then I thought fuck it.

I only enjoyed Homecoming. I found all the others pretty lame.

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;23853134] They had an achievement tracker for Halo 3, ODST, and Halo Wars, which got you Avatar Clothes if you unlocked a certain amount of achievements. I'm assuming it'll be the same thing.[/QUOTE] You have to get every Halo 3 and ODST achievements for the Waypoint armor. I already have that covered so all I have to do is wait.

[QUOTE=P1X3L N1NJA;23854239]I only enjoyed Homecoming. I found all the others pretty lame.[/QUOTE] Really? I thought The Package was pretty good because the creator actually seemed like he was a Halo fan.

[QUOTE=Sgt.Kiddles;23854288]You have to get every Halo 3 and ODST achievements for the Waypoint armor. I already have that covered so all I have to do is wait.[/QUOTE] Is that going to be like you have to get them before reach comes out? I've just got about 10 Halo 3 achievements [annual and some free for all ones] and just the firefight ODST ones left.

[QUOTE=Sgt.Kiddles;23854288]You have to get every Halo 3 and ODST achievements for the Waypoint armor. I already have that covered so all I have to do is wait.[/QUOTE] Looks like I'm not getting the Waypoint armour then. I sold ODST, and lost my H3 campaign disk.

Waypoint Armor?

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;23854316]Really? I thought The Package was pretty good because the creator actually seemed like he was a Halo fan.[/QUOTE] Too many continuity errors. Halseys age for one. Lowering a assault carriers shields with 2 gauss guns. Never explained how Halsey was captured. UNSC dont have active camo on ships. And this isnt a error but the space bikes were lame as hell why couldnt they just have a longsword.

Ivory tower, holy shit

So, how many people can ride in the Falcon at one time? I keep hearing that it can carry SEVEN people. Oh snap. Is this true? Sounds too good to be.

[QUOTE=Funky Pickle;23855085]So, how many people can ride in the Falcon at one time? I keep hearing that it can carry SEVEN people. Oh snap. Is this true? Sounds too good to be.[/QUOTE] That does sound too good to be true. It can hold at least 3 (Pilot, 2x Gunners), and it looks like there's some room in the back for more (So maybe 4-6?). The first cinematic trailer for Reach had Noble 6 getting out of a falcon, then the rest of the team getting in one.

[QUOTE=Veers;23855033]I don't know if Halo: Evolutions would be considered canon, but there were ONI ships that had active camo.[/QUOTE] No youre thinking of the Prowlers. They didnt have active camo, they just switched everything off and were built a small size so they were invisible to radar also electronic countermeasures and shit of course.

Halsey appeared much younger than she actually was because of that cryo sleep they go into. Considering in Halo: Reach you take down a Covenant Corvette in a small fighter pretty much solo, I'd say that's acceptable, if not a bit strange. They said the Covenant stole her from a ship, there's not really much to explain. Covenant raided a ship and kidnapped Halsey. ONI Prowlers have Active Camo. The space bikes were really lame though, I agree.

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;23855587]ONI Prowlers have Active Camo. [/QUOTE] I thought they just kinda hid, like turned everything off so they weren't picked up on any sensors.

[QUOTE=shatteredwindow;23855648]I thought they just kinda hid, like turned everything off so they weren't picked up on any sensors.[/QUOTE] I recall that they actually had some kind of active camo, and the wiki says the ship in question was an ONI Prowler and The Package is canon, so, they can now.

You dont take down the corvette solo your with a whole squadron of sabres then the frigate MACs it. Prowlers do not have active camo, they have eletronic countermeasures and the same special paint they use on the B-2 stealh bomber. Also the ship from the package is not a prowler. They look nothing alike.
