Talk:Halo 2 E3 demo

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Anyone know where I can find a transcript of the Demo?

It looks better[edit]

This demo looks better than the final game. I wonder why bungie didnt include this lvl.Needler 667 03:21, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Wow, if it was on XBL, I'd purchase it.

Where is it[edit]

Where is the demo on this article?

New Halo 2[edit]

I am making my own version of Halo 2 which is essentially the same, only with this level in place of Outskirts. --Lord Lycan 22:46, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

why the hell did they cut this[edit]

I watched the demo before halo 2 came out then I watched it again just now and I'm sitting here wondering why the hell the couldn't work it out so the could keep that in the final game. there is so much action going on also outside the battle amplifiying the action inside the battle.

They actually did - they just stretched it out across a longer level. The Warthog-Shadow fight? That's the tunnel. The encounter with the Phantoms becomes playable on the bridge, with a tank instead of a ghost. The pelican landing was reworked to be "cooler". And let us not forget the Scarab that was added. The Elites dropping in their pods is also in gameplay now rather than a cutscene. The urban fighting is its own level entirely, Metropolis. Mostly, though, the original demo was almost entirely rigged - noptice that the ammo is infinite and the Chief takes very little damage at all - and more of a demonstration. The only thing really missing was the airstrike. -- Administrator Specops306 - Qur'a 'Morhek Honour Light Your Way! 21:42, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Well hwhat I'm saying is that the gameplay shouldn't have been streached out, the section might have been only 10 minutes, but it would of been 10 minutes of awsomeness. a taking awsomeness in one big dose is allot better than in a bunch of little doses becuse you can easilly replay the level.

Does anyone else think the bloodsplatter (When shooting corpses) is identical to the bloodsplatter in Halo 1?[edit]

I think so, but I wanted to check with you guys before editing the page 98.206.200.205 19:01, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

Other levels[edit]

In the 343 stream at 54:08 onwards, we can see a number of missions and levels left in the devkit that 343 are playing the demo. They are listed as such;

  • Earth City
  • ALPHAGASGIANT
  • ALPHAMOON
  • DELTATEMPLE
  • SENTINELHQ
  • DELTACONTROLROOM
  • AI TEST

Is it worth creating pages on all of these cut levels, or would they be better folded into this page? We already have a page for Forerunnership and Covenant Ship so I think it's a possibility. BaconShelf (talk) 09:46, 17 November 2018 (EST)

If we were to lump them all into this page, I might suggest integrating the page on Meat Grinder(not linking so I can keep track of it on the orphaned page list) as well, since it's currently an unlinked page with a single sentence, and probably should've been folded into another page long ago.--D9328 (talk) 10:38, 17 November 2018 (EST)d9328
It does seem like most of those are just working titles for levels that did end up in the game, but given our MO so far, I think it might be justifiable (or at least harmless) to have pages for them all. They're not part of the E3 demo anyway (they were booted from a separate build and are clearly much less playable), so it wouldn't make sense to have them on this page. --Tacitus (talk) 11:55, 18 November 2018 (EST)
