Talk:Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary

Firefight Map
Should we mention the "different and new" firefight map that will be available, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for flood.

I think it's worth a mention. From this Sparkcast (http://halo.xbox.com/Content/assets/en-us/Podcast/waypointrss.xml), I also believe that it might be Flood. They could have been joking, but Frankie and the other 343 members were hinting heavily at The Library. - TheLostJedi  16:07, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

I agree, but how would that be playable? Are they going to put it in the Reach matchmaking?--Bdgroot-117 04:40, 10 June 2011 (EDT)


 * I got the impression the maps are just new Reach maps, on the Reach MM disc, like Mythic II was for Halo 3. Alex T Snow 04:52, 10 June 2011 (EDT)


 * Quite so. According to the Sparkast I linked there will be another disc with the Campaign disc for Halo: CEA. That disc will have the 7 new maps, although they also spoke of a voucher code that will come with the purchase, to download those 7 maps, allowing players to play all of Reach's maps if they choose to. This could all be subject to change though. It's still a few months before the game's release. - TheLostJedi  20:21, 12 June 2011 (EDT)

How about the hold out point on the level Halo where you have to defend the marines, bungie hinted that might make an appearance.
 * How do jou mean?--Bdgroot-117 17:45, 26 June 2011 (EDT)

Artistic Licence
The new helmet is strange, it doesnt look exactly like the old one. It doenst look smooth. 84.130.203.147 15:25, 9 June 2011 (EDT)

As of right now, it sounds like 343 is still fixing/redoing a lot of stuff in the game, the helmet and armor included. Hopefully the stuff we've seen so far isn't the final version SPARTAN-347 17:20, 9 June 2011 (EDT)


 * They said they've already fixed the helmet. Alex T Snow 17:24, 9 June 2011 (EDT)


 * True, also if you watch carefully, all of the appearances of Chief in the trailer aren't consistent. For instance, in the reveal shot where it switches from the old Chief to the new, his armour looks a bit weird. But later... freeze the frames around when it has a clip of online Co-op play. The Chief in that clip looks better. - TheLostJedi  20:26, 12 June 2011 (EDT)

...You know, another possibility could be that the Mk. V that we've seen in Reach (the whole suit, not just the armor pieces) is actually the Mk. V [B] (the privatized variant made for the SPARTAN-IIIs), and what we're seeing in Halo: Anniversary is the straight-up Mk. V SPARTAN-347 00:17, 19 June 2011 (EDT)

Terminals
Were will the terminals be placed in the "new" campain?--Bdgroot-117 16:17, 14 June 2011 (EDT)

will anyone but this it seems like campaign and new maps for reach which will likely be released as dlc later on?butthead4


 * According to Frankie, each level will have one Terminal to be found, and that these will be relatively easy to find and won't result in being killed while viewing it by nearby enemies. --  Specops306   Autocrat     Qur'a 'Morhek   21:21, 14 June 2011 (EDT)
 * What the hell is butthead4 trying to say? --Felix-119 14:46, 16 June 2011 (EDT)


 * I have no idea "A Penny saved is a Penny earned" 14:49, 16 June 2011 (EDT)

You mine putting a reference on that, SpecOps? Vegerot ( talk )  13:36, 17 June 2011 (EDT)!


 * Interview with Dan Ayoub here, providing details on the terminals.
 * Highlight:
 * "Terminals debuted in Halo 3, it was text, it was a little difficult to find. So we're going to make the Terminals more accessible, they will be easier for people to find and we're going to use them to tell a story of the Halo ring, and if you find them all you may find that we've laid down some foundation for the other Halo game we talked about today."

thanks!--Bdgroot-117 16:53, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Flood
The main thing that struck me personally, was the Flood. I mean, they didn't appear in reach, so it only shows that they'll have to make all new graphics, correct? With that, I am wondering if the Flood will appear in Firefight, and if so, how will they appear. --~Jman98~ 17:36, 18 June 2011 (EDT)

Watch the trailer at 0:53. you can see flood. Bush Wookie Camper

The legs on the elite combat forms look like those of the Halo: Reach - style elites, so I'd say it's safe to say the rest of their design has been updated too SPARTAN-347 00:15, 19 June 2011 (EDT)

BOB Zealot?
I saw the picture at the bottom of the article. Its description was a BOB Zealot. Why the hell is it a BOB? Just because it has white armor? I don't get it. Whoops forgot to sign it. Themrhalo007 21:06, 9 July 2011 (EDT)


 * Yes. Zealots do not have white armour. Alex T Snow 16:56, 3 July 2011 (EDT)

No, it;s not a zealot, if you noticed the armor is being used differently from Reach, that is one of the invisible guys you fight throughout that mission, He also has no shields like they do.

Marathon symbols ?
Will be again be able to see the Marathon symbols in the game ? Like on Keyes, PoA and such ? Mcz117chief 14:58, 4 July 2011 (EDT)

I think not. It's Bungie's trademark, and they even avoided to use it in Reach PatrickRus 15:44, 4 July 2011 (EDT)

But that was because of Microsoft, as the Marathon series is owned by the Microsoft, but since 343i is working in conjunction with Microsoft, I hope we will be able to see them again. Mcz117chief 16:18, 4 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Halo is property of Microsoft Game Studios and it's subsidiary, 343 Industries. Bungie still however maintains full rights to the Marathon franchise.

Then why didn't they use it in reach?--1-10 12:34, 14 July 2011 (EDT)

The symbol will not be in the game as we can see simply by looking at the logo. The original had the Marathon symbol in the center, as seen here: |here but the new one has replaced it with a monitor as seen here: |here. As commander Tony said, Marathon belongs to Bungie but Halo belongs to Microsoft therefore Microsoft will not use the symbol without Bungie's permission. As for why it wasn't in Reach, that is most likely due to Halo belonging to Microsoft at the time despite Bungie making the game--Soul reaper 13:28, 14 July 2011 (EDT)
