What's going on with the shadows on the weapon?

The Chief's head's shadow, probably.

Halo 4 |OT| You gonna get dis work.

343 putting in dat work. Looks exceptional!

Halo 4 |OT| I need you

The Chief's head's shadow, probably.

But his head isn't moving.




Parrot sidekick confirmation.

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Game looks so pretty.

Hmmm...yes....I love how the more detailed graphics get for Halo, the more naked Cortana appears.

It's simply fantastic!

I'm not going to quote your avatar, but toes. Lookit them toes.

 

[Slayer-33]

Goty worthy only judging by what we have seen...

Amazing fucking job 343

 

[TUROK]

What's going on with the shadows on the weapon?

Chief's body casts shadows on the gun.

 

[AlStrong]

What's going on with the shadows on the weapon?

Master Chief overdosed on Mountain Dew.

Spoiler

First person self-shadowing is tricky. Wish they'd turn it off like Bungie did for Reach.

Halo 4 |OT| I need you

Halo 4 |OT| Time to wake up
Halo 4 |OT| No, I think we're just getting started

I don't know. I'm not that good with these things.

 

[SegaManAU]

I'm seriously blown away by the graphics.

Looks awesome, and I can't wait!

 

[NullPointer]

I don't know. I'm not that good with these things.

Oh, I wasn't trying - thats just how I feel right now ;P

I'd go for something like this:

Halo 4 | OT | What intelligence and grizzled hardware is capable of

Might be too subtle though.

 

[Hypron]

The graphics look good, but they don't really seem that revolutionary to me. It seems on par with Gears 3.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

The graphics look good, but they don't really seem that revolutionary to me. It seems on par with Gears 3.

You're out of it. The visuals we are seeing right now look much better than GOW 3.

 

[dmg04]

Chief's body casts shadows on the gun.

Looks more like there's a flag waving above the weapon, to be honest.

 

[JdFoX187]

The graphics look good, but they don't really seem that revolutionary to me. It seems on par with Gears 3.

This is going to have a much larger scale than Gears 3.

 

[dmg04]

Halo 4 |OT| Spartan Awakening

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Halo 4 |OT| Dat Cortana

 

[Hargenx]

Halo 4 |OT| There is no Halo in this Halo...

 

[Proelite]

The graphics look good, but they don't really seem that revolutionary to me. It seems on par with Gears 3.

Looks better than Last of Us and God of War Ascension though.

 

[NullPointer]

Halo 4 |OT| There is no Halo in this Halo...

I wouldn't count on that. Maybe.

 

[IHaveIce]

Halo 4 |OT| There is no Halo in this Halo...

At least One Halo Ring is in the Main Menu, at least it was on several events.


So maybe there will be one in the game. :x

From HALOGaf

New infection gametype is called "Flood"

Infected actually look infected and have a powerful melee attack

Kickass

 

[Ryan_IGN]

"Halo 4 is almost a lock to become the best-selling first-party Xbox game of the year (surprisingly, Minecraft is likely to come in second place). It’s also the most important. Sure, Call of Duty: Black Ops II will probably sell more copies, but Halo 4 will set the tone for the new Master Chief trilogy and give the franchise significant momentum heading into Halo 5 on the next-generation Xbox…Unless it doesn’t, that is. But if the two-mission taste of Halo 4’s campaign I got is any indication, both the series – and our collective Halo fandom – are in good hands at 343i"

Even though this is coming from IGN, It really does help my mindset.

I wrote it, so...thanks for the backhanded compliment, hehe. I'll be continuing to lead IGN's Halo coverage just as I did for years at OXM. So if you can find it in your heart to give me a fair shake, perhaps you'll enjoy what I cook up.

For instance, a story interview video I just put up where Frankie talks about Halo 4's ending.

Doesn't matter.

Wrong.

Here we go...

It might be somewhat of a videogame cliche, but it’s also an evolution of the classic Halo gameplay, something I don't think we would never see in the original trilogy, and that makes it noteworthy.

How are scripted events an evolution of "class Halo gameplay"?

Wrong.

Doesn't really confirm anything.

 

[Domino Theory]

The more I see Halo 4 scenarios with the Covenant, the more I think of how insignificant Halo 3's "Finish the Fight" marketing was, haha.

 

[Hypron]

Doesn't matter.

I never said it was a bad thing, I just don't really get all the posts saying the graphics are mind blowing and stuff. [edit: Although yes, the environments are rather large and maintaining consistently good graphics must be quite a challenge]

I was never really into halo but I -might- give this one a look when it comes down in price.

 

[Unity2012]

Wow... I cant get over the quality, dedication and the Amazing Job the people at 343i has put into this game.

Imminent LE pre-order.

Thank you 343i.

Graphics can be great without being revolutionary.

 

[MidnightCowboy]

Everything looks so good. If only all shooters had art direction this unique. It really seems like a labor of love.

 

[Hargenx]

Sorry friends...

Halo 4 |OT| We still got Halo in Halo!

 

[higherARC05]

Thanks OdysseusVA

My gosh so good

 

[Slightly Live]

It's a Halo. In an official earlier build of Halo 4.

There will be a Halo in Halo 4.

 

[ChimpBottle]

I love Halo's core gameplay, but only for it's simplicity. Armor abilities and perks are such a turn off for me.

Does anybody know if there will be a playlist without any of that stuff? Similar to Black Op's Barebones playlist where there aren't any kill streaks or perks?

There will be classic playlists

Nice, my interest for it just shot up through the roof.

Forge forge forge OMG
This game looks so good, but I NEED Forge info

I don't know. I'm not that good with these things.

I personally like:

Halo 4 |OT| Wake up, John
Halo 4 |OT| I have long dreamt of this day, Reclaimer

 

[IHaveIce]

I personally like:

Halo 4 |OT| To Infinity And Beyond
Halo 4 |OT| Requiem Of A Dream

were my favorites

Frankie dropping truth bombs.

A little disappointing to hear that Chief doesn't have that many more lines than previous games.

So much for fleshing out his "humanity".

Which video are these from?
