Like the texture quality, the polygon count, the resolution, and the anti aliasing, and the lighting...Ajemsuhgao said:
Anyway I think the trailer looked good. Still a cutscene which is not in any way indicative of an actual gameplay video, but a good looking cutscene nonetheless.

I think they tried to be more muted this time after all the negative nancies from their other trailers they put out which often gave wrong impressions.
Thought it was a bit tacky to be honest. Guy with the skull on his helmet? Rubbish. "Hell of a day to join"? Cliché. Don't know, maybe it's just me being tired and pissed off for having sat through two hours of the shittest TV I've ever seen [not even an exageration], but didn't impress me on first viewing.

What the fuck you expect dude, the game is a year away from being released. You think they are gonna use the VGA's as their first gameplay reveal?
Consider this trailer, the handjob, then E3's trailer as the blowjob, then the games release as vaginal penetration.

Thank god there's more to videogames than Halo
and the VGAs.
Oh, and I do like the games btw, but this trailer was so dull.

I need a better source than the youtube stream to really tell much. First impressions:
1) Dialogue was terrible.
2) Models and animation are a huge step up from Halo 3 and ODST.
3) Engine looks very clean, but hard to tell from the youtube capture.
4) Some great environments, lighting, smoke effects.
Nothing really happened. For two and half minutes, there's really very little here to chew on.
The Elite looked great, though. Compare the detail in the screen above to the Brutes close up in Halo 3.

It looks great, but I hope the final game looks more colorful. It is Halo, after all, so I expect pretty graphics with lots of colour, not the same shitty brown/grey graphics of pretty much every other shooter out there. If I wanted to play a game with ugly monochromatic graphics I'd go with CoD4, GoW2, or any of it's clones.

Great-looking teaser of the game's focus and new visuals. It was your usual corporate info-tube for fans filled with awkward moments, so I'm glad I only had to barely pay any attention to it as the show's constant reminders made it obvious that Reach was held off until the end.

6 Player co-op just dawned on me. That should be fun.

I get the feeling the 'you can drop the lone-wolf stuff' line was a nod toward the gameplay style of Reach.

Honestly Bungie's always towed the line, but I did think the couple of cliches really crossed far over into dude bro gears territory with stuff like the skull helmet.
I'll wait and judge the graphics after we get the trailer and I can really watch it on my pc.
1st impressions I was extremely meh though. I know I'll be hyped if only for the new MP, but I was pretty bored through that whole thing. It wasn't bad just unexciting.

...On the first halo ring?
edit: We'll probably get mention of him though, and like I said earlier, it'd be sweet if we survive the glassing and get to see him on his return.

Yea, I'm retarded for thinking a pre rendered clip that has nothing to do with what the game in motion will look like, is useless for what the game will look like... you know, when you're playing it. But oh noes, they used the warthog model and everything? This trailer shows as much about what the game is gonna be as the Halo 3 scene when they glass the planet.

I expected something like those above. Bungie already released a CG teaser for Reach before so while the VGA stuff looked like real-time, content-wise, there was nothing to speak of and this was below Bungie's usual standards.

If anyone thinks this is what the actual game will look like I've got a completed beta version of DNF to show you...

IIRC, the Fall of Reach is mainly from chief's perspective, and he is onboard the pillar of autumn before the action starts, hence his travelling to Reach.
Could be wrong though, I have to re-read the book when I get back home.

No, because the books focused on Spartans and Reach. These appear to be Oni related ODST troopers which didn't really get covered in the books.
