Bundgie : Halo 3: Recon is definitely not a full game

If they're comparing Recon expansion to The Frozen Throne expansion, then what they're saying is that Recon is not going to run on a new game engine, but use the Halo 3 engine, just as The Frozen Throne re-used the same Warcraft engine.

But remember, The Frozen Throne was a VERY large campaign, so comparing it to Knights of the Nine or Shivering Isles probably doesn't reflect how large a game it will really be.

In other words, saying it's not a "new game" is splitting hairs... it will probably be just as large.

 

TFT wasn't as big as RoC, but the missions themselves were varied GREATLY. There were very few, build a base destroy the others, types of missions.

 

Huh.  Well, TFT seemed fairly long to me.  I didn't time myself, so I can't say for certain how long it took me to complete.

 

You have to keep in mind it had 3 campaigns, NE, Undead, and Humans/Elves. Also the RPG as a campaign for the Orcs. They also had less missions per campaign, but they were a great deal more fun than most of the missions in RoC.
