That's really cool looking. Man, I wish I could draw
Thanks man, although I wish I was half as good as others.. Any critiques? I wanna have another go at this once Im finished and am looking for other opinions on what to change.
For the new page:
Quick and crappy, an update on my attempt to re-imagine a Jackal:
(crappy cellphone picture with flash. Ill put a decent copy up once I finish it)
Once again, I am looking for comments and critique.
Also, I still am not happy about how far I departed from the Jackals established skull structure.. I was using the comments describing Halo 4's Jackal as a cross between an Iguana and a Shark and kinda gave it my own twist. Im gonna finish it and then try again, this time trying to make it more alien and Jackal like.

I think you're being a little too hard on yourself, I think it's very good!
Are the spurs under the jaw and the neck something you came up with?

Grenade launcher?
how have grenades been fixed?
how have other armor abilities been balanced?
How many maps are shipping with the game?
Framerate?

WTF Yahoo answers!?
And he is Persian, what would you do?

Frankie has already said grenades are no longer mini-nukes, at least.
More specifics are always good, halo 3 style nades that actually disappear once in a while when they haven't been picked up would be fine by me (but then they are basically halo 2 nades)
been a while (I've had it open in my tabs since Plywood posted it
)

Thanks! (though ideally, I would have liked the skull shape to remain more Jackal-like.. I drifted too far towards dinosaur)
As for the neck area I was influenced by a mix of lizards, particularly a photograph of an orange (cuban?) Iguana.

Constructive time.
I think the the skin is a bit too scaley, larger flatter scales kinda like a drell from mass effect is the sweet spot i think.
That thing has alot of teeth, i think something closer to shark teeth would be better less teeth
Maybe some king of small protruding horns along the nose?
Is the BR a six shot kill now?

It's to make up for the DMR being slower, 5-shot kill

That's a good start. I want a better arc, a better bounce, and for them to not chain-reaction with all the grenades on the ground, too
If each of your shots have several missed bullets, like the gif, then probably.
This certainly wouldn't be a 'clean' 4sk.
They probably won't show us a clip of a perfect 4 sk on someone standing still, but I imagine it is still 4sk.

I guess my question is do I really have to do anything?
It's called bloom. You've probably never heard of it.
in your MLG playlist.

Mine was worse.
How awesome would it be for the developers to answer our questions? Or even better, if they were a part of this community and routinely talked directly to us?? How exciting would that be, huh? HUH? HUH?!

20 billion to remove bloom
You know that probably none of those questions would be answered, right? They're not new to PR. I realize this is a 'dream list', but it's not something they're going to put into their PR cycle until they're good and ready.Ugh i hate these public QandA type things, the uninformed masses ask already answered questions and those questions get picked via the sorting team and answered.
A dream question list would be
Is The Grenade Launcher Returning?
Does Forge have terrain altering properties?
Is the game built with Customization DLC as an option from day 1?
What maps are returning?
Is spartan ops limited to only S IV away missions or could the delivery method also give the user short stories ala playable "another day at the beach".
ect
1) We're not ready to talk about all of the weapon sandbox quite yet.
2) We're not ready to talk about Forge yet, but we plan to have feature parity with past Halo titles.
3) We're not ready to talk about DLC quite yet, we're focusing on the game first and foremost.
3) We're not ready to talk about maps outside of Warhouse and Wraparound yet, stay tuned for further reveals! We think fans will be pleased.
4) We're very excited for the possibilities of Spartan Ops and what it can bring to the series, but we're not quite ready to talk about the details of what that content will entail. Stay tuned!
I would be surprised if any 'tough' questions are answered at all. I'd love to be surprised, but I think expecting specifics is a little premature.

I said dayuuum
I was actually going to make this joke, but about myself. Because in Halo 3 it usually was a six shot kill for me.
I can't figure out how to post a comment on the GI site, there's no option for it that I can find.

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.
I think those are excellent responses. Truly, your answers have struck a chord in my soul.
I've read a lot of press releases and heard a lot of Q&A sessions with European games press in my day :\

I watched th HD GIF in Slow motion, I counted 12 bullets including the headshot, so it's 4 shot.
Damn, how do I do that?

Ughh men in tight jeans and really thin shoes is so gross.
Is your avatar the sad version of Frankie's old one?
Because it's not 1995 anymore.
Anyway, what I want to know is...
- Is flag juggling in the game?
- Is the assualt mechanism like in H2 or H3?
- Does the Banshee (assuming it's in there) have the fuel rod cannon?
I don't see why two of those questions couldn't be answered. It's not like they're ever going to be part of a major reveal.

The video on GI where the guy said they sped up CTF has me worried you don't hold the flag anymore. That's one of the things that makes Halo CTF so good. You don't just have the flag sitting on your back, you actually have to carry it and use it.
Really? Is there a link to this video, I don't recall hearing that. I just puked in my mouth a bit.
my mind is full of fuck

I too hope that flag juggling is back in
