== | ==History== | ||
'''Starry Night Appearance''' | |||
This incarnation of the bubble shield had a safety cover on top of the "grenade", which could be flipped up to expose the red activation button. After that, it emitted a charging sound and upon resting on the ground for a short time, created the shield. | |||
'''Quisnam Protero Damno ViDoc''' | |||
This version of the bubble shield is seen used in the Alpha-stage Halo 3 footage for multiplayer. The bubble grenade rolls down a hill as the Spartan-II concealed in the sphere back-pedals away from an enemy. Information later released by Bungie, however, stated that the sphere would rest on the ground and the Spartan II would need to stand still to enjoy it's effects. | |||
'''Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta''' | |||
The bubble shield appears and functions differently from both of its previous appearances. This version is similar to the Starry Night appearance. In the Halo 3 Beta the bubble shield is stationary and does not roll as it did in the ViDoc. The shield itself has remained the same otherwise. The bubble shield generator looks significantly different in the beta version than it does in both the commercial and the ViDoc. The generator has four legs and can be destroyed from within the shield, collapsing it prematurely. | |||
