Two things that are right on the money are lighting and level design.

Textures are largely either bland or dogshit.

It's almost like you're looking at a beta.

I think that's a fair evaluation. Maybe I need to see the grass in motion. In screenshots it looks aliased and kind of repetitive.

BUT I do like the sand. :D

So how do I add someone to ignore guys? I never felt like doing it before this.
Click on thier handle, then select view profile. Then "add to Ignore list".

I've saved myself much brain cell loss over the years with it.

Bummer that this map won't be in the public beta. From the thread from this morning though we should see it in some print coverage soon though.

What the fvck are you even looking at in that shot to make you think the graphics look good? You can't even see anything.

the lighting, the textures, and the decorators my friend

I thought the beta was supposed to feature the final graphics and art assets of the game.
No it isn't. Frankles already said that it will be better than the alpha, but still missing many things from the final game.
 
Um, I don't want to get banned or anything but that video kind of left me with the impression it doesn't look a LOT different than Halo 2. I'm a bit unimpressed to be honest. Did Halo 2 have that good of graphics? Is the Youtube quality crap?


I don't know really, I was always a big fan of the single player and co-op campaign in Halo 1 and 2, maybe that's where the incredible graphical leap will lie.
 
I like that the HUD is the visor, liked it in metroid which makes me wonder will we be able to see his face from reflections during the game?

Halo 2 never looked that bad. Its not as good as the Halo 3 pic but never did it look like that. What kind of ass screenshot is that.

I agree with you totally, that's one of the worst Halo 2 shots I've seen. If your going to make a comparison, don't blatently choose the worst shot to back your view up the most. It's too obvious.

bye bye, fellow junior.

EDIT: hey I'm not a junior no more. Also, that torrent posted earlier is a different size from the Megaupload file. Troll torrent maybe?
 
I see screens like this and I'm like, holy ****ing shit. The number of people coming in and going "zomg Halo 2" is mind-boggling.

And that's the talking points memo for the week.

It was the only one IGN had that matched up almost perfectly.
 
if bungie is already using a similar system to the one they have been using with halo 2 to keep track of these matches (and i believe they do, since it would help their beta testing) then it will be very easy for them to understand who leaked this footage.
Oh well.


Won't comment on the graphics; too early, and what the game looks like in multiplayer, it really doesn' t matter at all; shiled looks cool, but isn't the game faster than it used to ? i hope not, pacing in halo was just perfect.

This thread is a perfect opportunity to thin some of the junior herd.
 
Find a better pic on IGN, that's just what non-touched up Halo 2 pics look like.

Even the staged pics don't look anything like Halo 3 Beta.

Keep in mind we're comparing it to shakycam off a TV screen.
