Quote: --- Original message by: The Cereal Killer Quote: --- Original message by: xKRONNiKx I support this message.I still look forward to halo 4 but it really gets me that 343 decided to nerf jen taylor, the original cortana voice, i just can't imagine why they would do that, its the classic voice... And the whole getting rid of firefight thing.... The hell? I thought that they would maybe amp up firefight and make it more interactive, maybe kind of like a forge style where you could set up where they spawn or something? i dunno, just thought there could of been a lot of potential there... I hope they at least give Mr. Elite some armor for his grandma turkey flab arms... and give them voices like they had in halo 3. Also i hope you get to fight alongside elite warriors again, even if there are some that you still have to fight. Like in glasslands, where there were elites that were hoping for peace with humans, and others that still held hatred for humans. Also i hope 343 doesn't forget that the Arbiter still has a pretty large role, i think it would be cool to see more of the arbiter's story this time around kind of like in halo 2. Guess what I'm saying is i hope 343 continues the story smoothly and keeps on track with where it left off in halo 3. Edited by The Cereal Killer on Apr 11, 2012 at 04:53 PM I do too. I wish 343 the best on this game and hope that they will make me look forward to the future of the franchise. |

Well, I hope 343 allows modding.
They should develop a terrain editor for Forge. As in, one of those painting terrain editors. Good enough Editing Kit for me. :) |

They tried too hard to make the Halo4 music cinematic. It lacks the tempo and beat that got my adrenaline going in the earlier games. The theme is pathetic. But hey, we'll see when it comes out, eh old chaps?

You act as if you have heard the entire soundtrack, when all that has been released is this little tiny clip of music. :\ Don't assume anything until you have listened to the soundtrack. |

I think we can all agree on one thing: The game definitely will not be the same without Marty and his awesome BGM compositions.

However, based on the soundtrack sample in todays bulletin, the new guy is doing a pretty good job being definitive. like, someone could hear it and be like, oh, thats from halo 4, right? |

You only need to hear the soundtrack for the trilogy to know he'd be worth the extra cash. Edited by JimDaRulah on Apr 12, 2012 at 08:50 AM |

Quote: --- Original message by: Jaz Quote: --- Original message by: TM_updates Hate to break it, but the truth is for some people, looks do matter...even in games!! It is of negative influence on the game experience if I have to look at, imo, ugly characters and again imo, generic sci-fi style. Are you... agreeing with me? But you're the one that convinced me graphics don't matter! You're dead to me. (JK) Artwork and Graphics are two different entities altogether. Other than gameplay, artwork is very important to a game as it sets its personality(yes even Pong has its own artwork). When people say that a certain game is similar to another game, they are probably referring to either the gameplay or the artwork. -Zekilk P.S., Quote: -FXAA implementation As far as my knowledge goes, FXAA is a new texture filter Nvidia made recently to replace anti-aliasing. This feature can only be used with Nvidia's new graphics card the GTX 680 and can be forced upon games that don't support it. This is concerning since console technology is 7 years behind and I wonder how will they be able to implement it into the game. Plus, due to the way the filter works, some people have complained that it makes their games blurry. P.S.S., Quote: -HUD has parallax movement ... Googling Oh that thing...I still don't get it.

As much as I miss Marty, the new soundtrack sounds pretty good.
My only wish list is Jen Taylor and a reunion with Kelly/Fred/Linda/Kurt/Halsey. |

My laptop has the ability to force it, I think ive only used it once as I don't usually play games, and it looked fine to me. |

Yeah, that shotgun is the Reach shotgun, looks like there isn't an H4 version yet. I am really interested to see more of that Sniper Rifle, I wish they gave a side view of it :P |

I love the "nanosuit" style armour. It's less boring than just some stretchy rubber... it looks like it has strength and technology...

i think the graphics are fine, especially the lighting.
Its the custom loadouts and AAs thing that shoots it in the foot IMO. |

Edited by P3 on Apr 17, 2012 at 06:42 PM Well they are fresh of the line soldiers in a sense, since these are UNSC personal with modified mjolnir suits, and plus, its still a WIP so it might change later on, personally I like how there going for the look, looks like how its going super futurastic instead of modern unlike h2 and h3 from modern to future style. |

Frank O'Connor was there. Conan acted like he knew nothing about games whatsoever. The beginning of a new war by the end of the game. Something about the largest human hanger ever built. Pelicans look a bit different, unless there is another air vehicle similar to it.
edit: and that was there ^ Just told us to go to here for more: http://teamcoco.com/halo4 I haven't watched it yet. The site just decided not to work right after I got there. :/ Edited by Invader Veex on Apr 17, 2012 at 11:39 PM |
