Even More Halo: Reach Details Touch Down. Loadouts, Weapons and More
Written Monday, April 05, 2010 by Richard Walker

Bungie has trotted out even more tantalising details for the Halo: Reach Beta, confirming that Armour Lock definitely wasn't an April Fool, some lovely visual upgrades will feature and a selection of weapon loadouts will be available at the beginning of each multiplayer round.

For instance, the Air Assault loadout gives you an assault rifle, magnum and jetpack to start off with, whereas Operator will give you a shotgun, Expert Marksman starts you with the deadly scoped DMR and Grenadier puts a grenade launcher in your hands from the off.

In the same list of updates over on Bungie.net, the differences between the Elites and Spartans are also detailed, and the Elites are much more fearsome than they previously have been in past Halo titles: "We’ve already said that the Elites found in Halo: Reach were never meant to conform to the noble notion of equality. For far too long, our Sangheili brothers have been leashed – their very backs burdened by the weight of multiplayer parity. They hunched, bent to the whims of human anatomy," runs the description on the site, meaning that the Elites will be somewhat tougher than their Spartan counterparts.

They're bigger, faster and possess superior shield technology to the Spartans, able to move at a similar rate to a Spartan in full sprint, and they're also able to evade, making them incredibly agile. Their health also recharges fully rather than in sections like the Spartans, and their shields also recharge significantly faster. Surely this will make things severely unbalanced though, won't it Bungie?

Over to Bungie's explanation: "So, how are we gonna work them into multiplayer? Well, in a number of ways. In some circumstances, like Arena, you’ll only square off Spartan vs. Spartan or Elite vs. Elite. In others, well…stay tuned."

Looks like we'll have to wait to find out more about how Bungie plans to handle Spartan vs. Elite battles.

Halo: Reach's multiplayer Beta begins on May 3rd, as if you didn't already know.

Halo: Reach Beta Details Explode onto the Internet, Will Include 4 Maps
Written Thursday, April 08, 2010 by Dan Webb

In an interview with IGN, Bungie's Chris Carney and Lars Bakken, Multiplayer Design Leads on the title, revealed a lot more information about what we can expect from the beta this coming May 3rd.

The beta - which is available to those who still have their ODST disc - will roll out with 4 maps; Swordbase, "a small, asymmetrical slayer map that is set in an atrium"; Powerhouse, that along with Swordbase will focus on party game types like Headhunter, Stockpile and Slayer; Overlook, which is an "asymmetric map layout, much in the same way that High Ground was from Halo 3" and offers an attack/defend type game type; and Boneyard, which is the beta's biggest map with offering the only source of vehicle combat.

Chris Carney told the site, "All four maps were chosen in order to test a specific selection of game types and team sizes." He continued, "Sword Base and Powerhouse cover the Slayer, Headhunter, end of the spectrum, Overlook is perfect for the NT 1 ("Generator Defense") game type, and Boneyard is a great landscape custom built for Invasion. Each map brings unique elements that we want to evaluate and hopefully contain enough variety to be appealing for the duration of the Beta."

Carney goes on to state that Powerhouse is best suited for Team Slayer, whilst stating that Boneyard is built for the 6 on 6 invasion mode.

Boneyard according to Carney is "probably one of the biggest maps we've done" and was "inspired by the beaches in Bangladesh where they pull in those oil tankers and other big ships and cut them apart."

"We're doing that essentially with space frigates on Boneyard," he continued.

The interview also touches on the return of fall damage, although it's classed as "moderate fall damage," and if you're a fan of smaller, more intense maps, don't worry, Carney stated that fans of those maps won't be disappointed with Reach. The beta will also feature "many new weapons."

The Halo: Reach beta is coming May 3rd to a Halo: ODST disc near you

I am so glad I have both consoles now.
very pumped for halo reach.

just finished HALO 3 and ODST back to back and they are great games.
It was awsome to finish the fight with master chief but was really impressed on the graphics of ODST.

Great games.
