    It launches May 3rd. Knowing Xbox and Bungie, that means midday on the 3rd and then there will be a mass influx of people downloading the 600mb+ BETA. Expect downtime during the download. Just pretend its on the 4th and download then. You will have matchmaking and the theater to work from. Maybe again we can glitch into a custom game.

    Playlists will be launched in segments. They don't want the forums to be flooded with a variety of concerns, so Bungie will release one playlist at a time to get people focused on one gametype, in order to simplify gathering feedback.

    Armour Abilities
    these act like equipment.
    • Armor Lock (Temp. Invulnerability)
    • Roll (Elite Only, Roll out of a danger)
    • JetPack (Fly out of danger)
    • Sprint (Spartan Only, quick burst of speed)
    • probably more...
    Weapons
    The good stuff
    • Magnum
    • DMR (Designated Marksman Rifle)
    • AR (Assault Rifle)
    • Plasma Repeater
    • Plasma Launcher
    • Focus Rifle
    • Grenade Launcher
    • Needle Rifle
    • Needler
    Vehicles
    new vehicles?11

    • Warthog
    • Ghost
    • Banshee
    • Wraith

    Maps
    • Powerhouse (Looks like HighGround redo)
    • Sword Base (Close encounters, lots of levels)
    • Overlook (Quite large)
    • Boneyard (Larger than Sandtrap with more vehicles)
    Gametypes
    • Invasion (Firefight?111)
    • Headhunter (Kill people, get skulls, drop skulls in location, win game)
    • Stockpile (4 Neutral Flags, get them back to base and wait)
    • Generator Defense (3v3 Spartans VS Elites, mainly for network testing)
    • all the old stuff

    I bet you $100 that bungie is going to reveal a new armor ability in the next weekly update.
