All CG trailer, as expected. Here comes the backlash. :lol

That's not CG, it's in-game.

 

[FirewalkR]

I need to see this in decent quality. When's it gonna be up at Bungie's site??

 

[WHOAguitarninja]

Much improved animation and lighting. The skybox at the end was quite stunning as well.

 

[goldenpp72]

That looked good, if it's how in game will look consider me impressed.

 

[Thermite]

Looked so good. Holy fucking shit.

 

[Y2Kev]

Is it available anywhere in HD?

 

[SimpleDesign]

So...when can we download the HD version?

 

[Skilotonn]

Mother FUCKER.

Watched the whole damn show just fine, the damn thing crashes 20 seconds into the trailer.

I should've went to one of the TVs for this, I knew it, damn it to hell!

From what I DID see, it looked a hell of a lot improved over the Halo 3 engine, especially model-wise...

I need the fastest to this, stat.

 

[iSimon]

Can't believe he killed the stream. What a douche.

First person to Youtube it wins.

 

[Nutter]

Underwhelming to say the least.

Geoff Keighley is a fucking shill.

What was soo underwhelming? :lol

 

[Instigator]

Come on, people, upload this to Youtube!

 

[Metroidvania]

Really liked the more muted color scheme.

Yeah, people are gonna hate on it, but I like the more realistic sense.

 

[strikeselect]

Whoever said it would be a visual improvement over Halo 3 but not anywhere near Killzone 2 or Crysis was on the money.

Props.

 

[Metalic Sand]

Looked fucking awesome.

 

[Striker]

Looking great.

But do not change it up like they did from E3 2006.

 

[Deleted member 22576]

God, I get up for a smoke and miss it. :lol
Anyone take some screen grabs?

 

[Truant]

Underwhelming is the word, yes. I'm talking about the trailer itself, not the graphics.

 

[enzo_gt]

Everyone got trolled fucking hardcore. F U justin.tv streamer.

 

[Slightly Live]

There you have it folks, welcome to #Reach and hello Noble Team! We will have the trailer on Bungie.net later tonight (approx 12pst)

 

[TTG]

That's not CG, it's in-game.

Here comes that annoying argument again. Did you see anything that resembled gameplay? It didn't even have the look of a game going on with a cinematic camera to better show the action. But anyway, you don't want to hear that, carry on folks.

 

[Y2Kev]

Eh, yeah, it was kind of a tease. But I was watching through fuzz! I need better feed.

Five hours until it hits b.net and Live.

 

[user_nat]

Not the best Halo trailer ever.

Waiting for XBL version to watch it again though.

 

[VaLiancY]

I thought it was a good teaser, got the appetite wet and the hype train rolling. Was someone expecting a stage demo?

Are you retarded? It's a cutscene but it isn't CG, it might not be in game, but it's not cg either.

Halo wars has your cg if you want it that bad.

It's in-engine, not gameplay, chump. It's from the opening cinematic.



That said, Bungie needs to fire the people who do the human faces, because they fucking suck at their jobs.

Battlenet? 8P

 

[FrankT]

Looked superb on my HD feed. Cannot wait. It felt liked the shortest 2:30 ever however.

It didn't crash. The guy paused it. Pretty good way to troll the 2000 people watching.

Oh well. I can wait for it to be uploaded I guess. What I saw looked good though. I agree about the CG comments being a great compliment though. :lol

 

[Ninja Moomin]

you all remember when bungie claimed master chied walking through the sand was in-engine.... right?

been here before, ain't we?

 

[Thagomizer]

It was.

 

[pringles]

It looked amazing to me. I also liked the more serious tone conveyed by the dialogue.
Need a higher quality version, but first impression is REALLY positive from me.

That will be the one worth watching.

Did they say "in-game" or "in-engine?"

 

[Ajemsuhgao]

It was in-engine. They just changed things before the final game came out.

 

[-PXG-]

Everything was great, except where the hell was game play? Come on Bungie.

 

[Calm Killer]

I was personally less then impressed. Not what I was expecting.

 

[BattleMonkey]

Big meh for a preview, but did show off what looks to be some much improved real time animation and character models. The visuals themselves don't look like a huge improvement but have to see more of course, but the animation is a big step in the right direction.

 

[goldenpp72]

I got the impression this is an actual cutscene we will see in this game, not the teaser that the game exist which is what halo 3 was.

Could be wrong though.

 

[Ardorx]

Only a dumbass would think that wasn't realtime. It wasn't mindblowing CG.

 

[GodfatherX]

pretty unimpressed with what they showed...very uncinematic IMO

bungie used to be so great at doing teasers

like the graphic style, it needed a departure from what they have been doing for a decade

 

[Metroidvania]

It's in-engine, not gameplay, chump. It's from the opening cinematic.



That said, Bungie needs to fire the people who do the human faces, because they fucking suck at their jobs.

I dunno, I thought faces looked better, at least proportion to body wise, etc. didn't have time for a close up, lol.

 

[TOAO_Cyrus]

Well it was. They added HDR lighting later which forced them to remove all the AA/AF and lower the resolution.

 

[Instigator]

Underwhelming is the word, yes. I'm talking about the trailer itself, not the graphics.

Seconded.

Nothing happens in the trailer.

 

[Miroku]

kind of boring content-wise, but it looked pretty.

 

[WHOAguitarninja]

Faces were definitely BETTER. But everything else improved so much that they ended up still looking pretty out of place.

 

[Deleted member 22576]

Those are some pretty graphics.

 

[Lunchbox]

He had a BR on his BACK !!!!!

AHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Fuck you haters. my BR is back
