Frankie's Q&A from #HBO IRC
Posted By: Konrad <konrad9@gmail.com>	Date: 12/4/06 11:35 p.m.
Konrad: Frankie, is the so-called Shield Grenade a game element? Frankie: Nothing in the trailer was placed there by the agency - that is to say, every object and action was put in there with Bungie's consent and usually assets. Frankie: Which you have t assume we wouldn't do without good reason, riht? Angel: My question: Are the models of the kids supposed to represent John and Kelly, and if so, is there a specific time frame that they're in, such as during a training op or something? Frankie: The children at the start are there "for your interpretation." Frankie: Are they young Spartans? Are they Earth kids from the 20th century? It is a question presented in the ad, not an answer FG_Infinite_7: Frankie, my Question : why the shot with the hand armor? its brought up enough controversy Frankie: What do you mean why? It's a 1st person shot of the Chief's hand. KP: He's referencing the H2 assets in the Valhalla first person shot. Frankie: Oh Frankie: That was because KP nubbed up the shot Frankie: It was because then we didn't have 1st person view armor Hawaiian_Pig: Is the "bubble" grenade related to forerunner tech in any way? Frankie: The tech of the Bubble Shield is top secret, ONI-owned KP: any comment on when [the trailer] takes place? Frankie: It takes place near or around the events of the E3 trailer Frankie: When those are, is a spoiler Ironlion: Who says "Time to go" as Master Chief gets up in the ad? Frankie: The little girl. Frankie: A little girl. masterskill: Group at the end with the wraiths(?); brutes, or some new folk? Frankie: Brutes Frankie: One has a hammer Frankie: Those are Wraiths Frankie: New Wraiths PhantomFaux: Are you, Frankie going to star in Halo 3, say as as guest spartan or a marine or some other role in the game? SG: I assume the commercial is proof that the halo 1 pistol is back. If so, has it undergone any changes to damage, rate of fire, accuracy, ect.? Frankie: No. Worst question ever. me in game PhantomFaux: I got mugged today coming home from school. Frankie: At gunpoint? PhantomFaux: no PhantomFaux: they just mugged me Frankie: then quit being a wussy Slith: Will the shield grenade be the fourth grenade type we can use in Halo 3 - alongside the frag's, plasma's and spike's? Frankie: Why does the shield have to be from a grenade? Obviously the object is grenade-like. But who says it's a grenade? Narcogen: Grenade or not, does the "not indicative of gameplay" caveat apply to the special shield the Chief used in the advertisement-- in other words, is this something we should NOT be expecting to see in gameplay? Frankie: Not indicative of gameplay means, these images were not captured from the gameplay engine. Frankie: Anything else is up for interpretation Konrad: Frankie, WHERE does the trailer take place? KP: The trailer takes place on earth. Veegie: What were the high pitches screaming during the time frame transition? Frankie: The high pitched screaming was a transition to the explosion noise Frankie: it was artsy
