Support NeoGAF

So many FOV experts up and at them this morning.

The FOV in Halo 4 is not less than Reach's. As far as I know, it's still 78.

To me, the FOV is fine. It looks to be the weapons have gotten bulkier with the new designs. All of the weapons look intimidating and realistic for Halo 4's arsenal of weapons.
At first, I didn't fully like the new Unsc sniper until it's recent design in the new trailer.

 

[JHall]

They resized all the weapons in ODST to fit in their hands better. The sniper is not as long in third person as it is in first.

I didn't know that. Thanks.

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

Why not? They are in debugging and fine tuning mode now. I'm sure the FOV is just a number value like it is in many other games, and can be changed at any point in the devolopment

Check PMs sukka

 

[ArchedThunder]

I didn't know that. Thanks.

Perfect example:
The Grav Hammer. It should be bigger than the ODSTs but it is smaller in that game.

Plenty to see:

It'd be nice if they could push the HUD elements out to the extreme sides of the screen, but I believe there's some sort of Microsoft requirement for where things can be.

The HUD Elements of a Spartan IV and Master Chief's Mk VII are different. Hmm.. Just noticing now haha

Some games let you define your TV borders, I wish all games would. Make the hud "edges" adjustable to the TV size and aspect ratio.

Yeah, CoD was the first game I played that utilized that, and a lot more games seem to have it now. Would love to see it in 4.

 

[Not a Jellyfish]

I don't really have a problem with the FOV or HUD item placement, of course haven't played the game yet.

Aesthetically I like where the HUD elements are placed because after all your Spartan is wearing a helmet, all part of his visor. Very good for immersing the player in their character.

 

[senador]

Also what's funny is that myself and many others have been complaining about the Wall-E sniper scope, but given some of the COD-esque leanings we'll probably be able to customize the scope design.

I also expect we'll get Halo 3 or Halo 2 "classic" unlockable designs for weapons and maybe armor in the game.

Kinda what my thought has been. I expected a 2nd unlockable sniper but now I don't think that'll happen. Skin and scope changes don't seem too far off base though.

 

[Shake Appeal]

I can't wait until we have a lot more to discuss than the FOV and HUD, to be honest.

I found Zoojoo as a bird, the cat is HaloGAF.

Chief isn't wearing Mark VII in Halo 4.

My girlfriend thinks cats that look like that are cute.

Which is weird, because I think they're horrendously ugly.

No offense to anyone here who has an ugly cat.

We've already been shown quite a lot of the game already. Only thing left is a few maps and weapons.

 

[Tashi]

I think I discovered a glitch in Reach last night. I forgot to save the film but I'm hoping it's still in the history. It was a reload glitch.

Not really, we've been shown little tid bits but still know very little.

The history empties after you exit the game.

Chief isn't wearing Mark VII in Halo 4.

Correct me if I'm wrong, thanks. I'm out of it from waking up.

So it's Mk VI variant [?] or..

 

[kylej]

Not sure anyone is claiming to be an FOV expert, but ok. Very happy it's the same as Reach.

Snipe looks better with an alternative scope.

edit. that's a photoshop y'all (not by me).

Nah, this is Satan's Reverence.

Wow, I didn't see this until now. Nice find.

It's Mark VI. The firmware was updated by Cortana and a lot of people think she used the nano-machines in his suit to alter it, but that theory has one gaping hole. Mark VI doesn't have nano-machines.

Wow, I didn't see this until now. Nice find.

It's a photoshop.

 

[Overdoziz]

Nope, it gets deleted once you play another game.


Also, Halo 4 should be 60fps with a FOV of 90 and 1080p. Make it happen 343.

You're joking right

Fuck. I guess it's time to go through the livestream...

edit: Ohhh nice over.

I'm not serious. Out of the Wall-E Photoshops, I like this one. lol

It would look worse than COD...
Honestly I don't think any game, other than fighting games and racing games, needs 60fps.

It would be insane, I am really liking the anti-aliasing though. Might have to ditch that with 60fps and 1080p. :/

It's Wizardry. Must Be..

I'm sorry; I've been so outta the loop lately with no interest in new media of this game (still buying ) but they changed the microwave on top of the sniper? SWEET!

Nice. Why the huuuge weapons though

How else will you look down the no existent sights on the AR?

It only empties when you play a game that uses the cache. i remember i could play Halo 3, play MW2 mp (not campaign) and go back to Halo 3 and my recent films would still be there.

I expected the frog jumping out the water gif from you, much better.

 

[GhaleonEB]

The shopped sniper looks so much better.

I missed the FOV discussion, but I thought Halo 4's looked fine from the beginning, not surprised to learn it's unchanged from Reach (thanks for confirming, David).

:lol don't forget 64x FXAA or bust.

Ok it wasn't a glitch. It was just short term memory loss on my part lol

[User 73932]

I think the absolutely gargantuan sniper model is making people think it's smaller than it actually is. (I'm fine with it since most of the time I'll be scoped anyway)

AR looks about the same as other games.

I think overall the weapon models take up more screen real estate than in previous games.

This looks a lot better. It would be nice if they allowed you to unlock a classic style skin. Maybe when you complete or unlock a new specialization?

I think that's what was throwing me off.
