Halo3: The Thread

This was from a preview a month ago mostly so it's public domain but possibly a spoiler for some. Your mileage may vary!

Scarab battle . It's bigger than the Corpser from Gears and that was in a cave, not to mention that the Corpser had zero AI and there was one way to kill it. The Scarab will actually hunt you around all the land around which you are driving around trying to kill it. And then you still have to board it and take out the pilots!

Game. Set and Match.

Acert we can't show you it YET.

wait till the game comes out. we should be lucky we're even getting to see this much of the game!

COD4 was bested by Halo 3 in pretty much all areas except for character detail and poly count + animation. Halo 3 wins everything else. COD4's lighting is good, but not nearly as good as Halo 3's. Halo 3 has much more scale, more enemies, 4 player co-op. Still amazed at how Bungie achieved such amazing visual fidelity on such an impressive scale. I've never seen a game receive as much attention to its art as Halo 3 appears to have. Tsavo Highway level is just fantastic.

I'm extremely surprised as to how Lebato isn't impressed. When bungie said "this is what Halo 3 is going to look like" they were right and the game now exceeds the environment showcased in that E3 06 demo greatly. I remember all the sections of the environment that still didn't receive any artistic attention.

I think Lebato is impressed, but doesn't want to admit he was wrong about Halo 3 graphically :)

I remember the mp comments you made. That it was wishful thinking that SP would look noticeably better than the MP. Well here we are months later looking at SP footage with the kind of visual fidelity nobody expected.

blablabla, no, no no.

Think whatever you want, but don't generalize comments. Visual fidelity nobody expected? Well, I guess you are somewhat right because I expected more.

Comparing H3's looks with COD4's made me laugh. I think you are right with the lighting part of it, but that's all. It's funny how easily we forget that not only do I think COD4 looks better as it is, but it runs better.........60fps at that.

I think H3 looks good, but nothing to impress ME. There's really NOTHING that is particularly impressive about it aside from lighting. Really nothing. I'm still waiting to see how intense those fights get, but since I haven't seen them, why be impressed by my imagination?

And gameplay is something else, and artistic taste is another thing. Keep those aside, you always do that, it'll get you nowhere as I'm not going to discuss that nonsense. I will not compare how artistically beautiful the battle rifle is compared to an AK, no.

And again optimus, you always do the same crap. Either quote me, or stop talking shit. "That it was wishful thinking that SP would look noticeably better than the MP"

I want you to quote me, and find the part where I say exactly that and the context I said it in.

But whatever, it's really worthless to discuss with you at this point, we've been thru this with FM2, and as of last week, you didn't even have the freaking game. God........what a waste of time.

EDIT: Ah, good to see Acert bring a bit of rationale to the topic. Well said Acert, I wish I could stay as calm as you do, but I just can't. Non-sense drives me crazy :D

blablabla no. Halo 3 = most impressive looking title in 360 lineup end of story believe what you want and I'll believe what I want. You expected more? How much more like exceeding the E3 2006 trailer like the game in its current state has? And you talk about nonsense don't make me laugh you are only acting the way you are now because you can't bring yourself to admit you were wrong about the game and made bold claims after seeing the beta about how you don't expect much of any improvement and how you complained time and time again about it not matching E3 06 trailer.

Wait whats that?

They definitely have =P On a serious note man I guess you have your opinion, but lets be honest this is as NEXT gen a Halo game as we could've ever hoped for. What do you want them to change about the game in its current state?

Not satisfied with the ai? Animation from previews appears to be games most improved aspect. Not satisfied with the animations (considering how many things we have to fight and how cool battles look the animations are MORE than acceptable) The effects? They are fantastic.. Would you prefer they decrease the size of the environments? Tone down the draw distance?

Why does he need to bother.. Ace already did it for him. But you've made it pretty clear that the effects, draw distance, scale, and uh, something else make it blow everything else out of the water. You two don't agree. Leave it at that.. this back and forth isn't getting you anywhere. And that goes for both of you.. the whole you guys may as well just be posting the same two things back and forth over and over again.

Well that was really productive. So yeah, back to finding Single Player (SP, Campaign) shots of Halo 3 to back up all the drama of bashing other games over the head with, "Halo 3 has huge, epic battles with tons of enemies in humongous open areas"

Why in the world would they request he take the old hog? Also, good presentation, crap camera work. Like I need to see him standing there playing it.

Also, design decision == lag decision. :)

What a topic title...

love the hornet though.

...and while not mind blowing by any means, that little mess in Forge at the end of the video is actually the best demonstration of the physics system yet. Are they still using Havok?

Halo 3, like Halo 2, uses a version of the Havok physics engine for much of its physics calculations[35] [36] (although parts of the physics, like melee, are done with custom code on top of the middleware).

Yes.. thank you for your prompt response sir.

People on the HBO forums are saying that Nathan Fillion from Firefly/Serenity is voicing a marine in Halo 3. His alleged line appears 37 seconds into the first gameplay video on this site from Leipzig - the line is like "lets get these men out of these caves".

I personally do hear the resemblence, but you never know.

That would be sweet if they modeled a Sgt. or something after him in the game. He would be the most badass marine in the game after Sarge.

Shut up man! Halo 3 butchers every other game in animation. Perhaps the chief had diarrhea, and so to not make a mess he just walks a little stiff.

Besides it also has 4 player online co-op and great art!
