Talk:Halo: Spartan Assault

Spartan Assault on PC and Mac?
Is there any information on this game being available for Mac too? Because if it were, that would be awesome. But if not, I may have to get an emulator for my computer. -- Xamikaze330  [Transmit |Files ] 10:53, 4 June 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330


 * It's a Windows 8 exclusive, so no. And I doubt you can find an emulator for it. — subtank   10:58, 4 June 2013 (EDT)
 * Maybe. One can always give it a try. But if it does fail, I suppose I could just go out and buy a PC computer. Might be time I get one anyway. -- Xamikaze330  [Transmit |Files ] 11:22, 4 June 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330


 * Based on the initial information I'm seeing, it appears that this game is optimized for phone & tablet play, rather than a straight desktop platform. Pity... I'd hoped that Microshaft had decided to include the PC platform as something more than an afterthought for its continuing Halo lines. I imagine it'll follow the standard Microsoft model & be pretty buggy out of the box...

 * Right on the money. Essentially a GameApp. And rumour has it that it will be available soon via XBLA since it is said to work with the Xbox controller. — subtank   12:31, 4 June 2013 (EDT)

Weapons Section
I think we can deduce from the cover that at least two weapons will be in the game: The M6H Magnum Pistol and the M395 DMR. Is there any problem with adding this? -- Xamikaze330  [Transmit |Files ] 11:22, 4 June 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * Nope :D Sith-venator Wavingstrider  Fett helmet.jpg ( Commlink ) 11:38, 4 June 2013 (EDT)
 * I think someone should double-check this list to verify that these weapons and vehicles will be in the game, as it is obviously not out yet. Confirmation is a must. -- Xamikaze330  [Transmit |Files ] 11:44, 4 June 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

I guess "don't jump the gun" would be appropriate here.— subtank   11:55, 4 June 2013 (EDT)

Are you saying we shouldn't post any weapons until 343 says they'll be in? This is craZboy557, signing off. 12:02, 4 June 2013 (EDT)


 * Not exactly. I'm hinting that we should avoid using the trailer as confirmation since stuff featured in trailers are likely to be absent in the final product. Example: Halo trailers since 2001. — subtank   12:06, 4 June 2013 (EDT)


 * So much for jumping the gun. Wow. Anyway, I think it would be okay if we can infer from the trailer what might be in the final product, and if some of it is wrong, some of it can be removed. I think we did something similar for the Halo 4 article. -- Xamikaze330  [Transmit |Files ] 12:15, 4 June 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330


 * Next scene: ten editors add in info, info gets outdated, calls out for info-fix. Some time later, one editor - unrelated to the ten - comes in and fixes info. Another editor comes in and gives the same warning on "jumping the gun". Repeat scene. Oh joy.— subtank   12:25, 4 June 2013 (EDT)
