Re: Sandtrap Guntowers.

In Response To: Sandtrap Guntowers. (SinisterSamurai) : Remember when the Beta was hacked? They found object tags on Sandtrap that : were called "Covenant Gun Towers." : There was also a Multiplayer Preview in a Canadian (around the time of : Permutation Announcments). They mentioned that the Towers on Shrine(or : whatever the Old Sandtrap name was) held a nasty surprise if you got to : close to them. : Bungie mentioned many times that they were going to use Snow-bound like : agressive kill borders on many maps. : In my infinite wisdom, at the time, I put 2 & 2 together and came up with : a theory that the Towers would shoot you down if you got close/out of : bounds, the way they did on Snowbound. They were bigger (Tower-sized) : because Shrine was a vehicle based map. So they'd have to be heavier : firepower, and possibly faster delivery. : I'm guessing they changed it mid-way through development, and never got rid : of the structures because they added flavor and made for an interesting : skyline. Would explain the eggs some too, because something would actually : have to generate the shots, even if they're untextured place-holder orbs. Good memory! Do you happen to have a link to where this Beta tag info was released?
