This is something i wanted to talk about for a long time and something i have known a lot about
that others don't seem to know.

Pictures
Mongoose in one of the first builds about 1.0.9 (And no the guns on it where never implemented so no gungoose in H2B.)


Beta Hud (Elite)

Beta Hud (Spartan)

Look like any game you played late 2012?

cutscene that was... uh well cut down. LOOK 343 PUT THIS INTO THE GAME BUT PEOPLE HATE THAT!

Again look like another game that came out in late 2o12?



4 Player splitscreen.

Beta menu with what seems to have a theater like thing or i could be wrong.

Arbiter in multiplayer?! :O

Beta zoom (Elite)

Near final Hud

Early Scarab

Early and honesty nicer Cutscene (Note the covie ship there is just a texture in the final game)


That all?














NOPE!


This build was the same build i showed you earlyer with the mongoose.

The finished game! (AKA 0.0.0.0.1)

Stay with the master chief, he'll know what to do.

Those arn't place holder assault rifle animations.

First cutscene in the game

Near final E3 demo.

Alpha Marine

the ultimate vehicle's alpha.


Thats all and have fun with MCC.

Thanks for sharing this, was really hoping someone would get this.

how did i miss some of this.

Maybe if you had posted this up 10 years ago? This is old, old news. Majority of Halo 2 Xbox modders had and still have the coveted Halo 2 internal Beta files. It's very common knowledge that Halo 2 was contain both Forge and Theater Mode.

Oh really? That's thrilling info. I always thought forge and Thtr were newly conceived ideas implemented into h3.

This Style better than Halo 2 Lastest Patch (except high bloom).

Nope. It was originally planned to be added to Halo 2 but was scrapped due to whole time vs release vs quality vs E3 debacle. That plus a lot of scrapped items were just not technically working due to console hardware limitations. Which is why Halo 3 had them.

Your welcome, please note i switched accounts and now my posts are from this account.

Are you sure the warthogs are for Halo 2?
Anyway, i loved the new gameplay. The screen shot of Master Chief looks near final, i am guessing originaly you could go into the pelican on Cargo Station and the animations are place holders. (NOTE that the Master Chief model is the one in the E3 2003.)

those warthogs are from Halo 2. someone took the idea and put it in CE.

is this BaseMoon?

Edited by Halonimator on Sep 28, 2015 at 04:10 PM

yes. Burial mounds would have been a visitable location in halo 2. That pic was smoke and mirrors. According to one of H2s designers. It's a test map.

EDIT:

this magazine suggests that Halo 2 would have followed with larger scale games like Battlefield coming out at the time, and would feature "squad oriented" gameplay, teams of spartans vs elites, heavy objective gametypes and airstrikes?!

Gawd It would be so cool to experience halo with a few battlefield mechanics.
