    I really wish there was more information or a beta so we could actually see how it all works. I think forerunner vision could be really good if made right. So far my best idea of it is largely what the new ability Geth have in Mass Effect 3 multiplayer where they can move fast, see though walls, gain weapon damage, and all at the cost of 1/2 sheild strength. I'm thinking if the vision is limited to a certain radius and to seeing through only light cover or thinner walls it should be fine.

    The gameplay changes dont seem to look too bad, I am still not a fan of the AA but again, if they are made well it should work fine. Great maybe. Really I think this all comes down to balance, and if it was well done. Still, I havent seen anything much yet just like all of you, so I cant really base this on anything.

    Yep. As long as they cater the maps to AAs, than I will be happy. Hopefully they learned from Reach's flaws in map design.

    I think not being a fictional barbarian comic book character is a pre requisite for being a nerd, could be wrong though.

    You're so damn wrong, Peg. So wrong.


    So wrong that you're right.

    The DMR looks sexy, though.

    I can't find this conan show thing? can anyone link it if it showed the spartan ops stuff (I can't believe they copied spec ops game mode from cod and then called it spartan ops ¬_¬)

    Probably going to be another one of those things you can change in custom settings.

    I'm ranting. STFU

    So, a few things I noticed

    - Sniper has a tripod
    - Release date is november 6th
    - Characters look somewhat cartoony
    - Theater mode is most probably in
    - Weapon lowering is in :D
    - Sniper first person scope is absolutely disgusting and makes me want to cry
    - Sniper scope seems very odd
    - Shotgun seems very similar to HReach. Possibly using an old asset, but time will tell.
    - Release date is november 6th

    And is it just me, or are the graphics of a much lower quality? The lighting just seems worse.

    I can't be the only person who thinks custom settings are getting to be a little too much of a crutch for this series. No doubt you are probably right, but I miss the simpler iterations of the game. Setting up custom gametypes already takes quite a while, and I usually overlook something somewhere - plus, a lot of settings are annoying to figure out in-game (like if flag-juggling is disabled or not - I usually don't test it because if it's turned off, it can get you killed and cost you a flag cap).


    Edited by merge:


    What?

    Seems fine to me. But they could have filmed in a more interesting location rather than "dimly-lit corridor." The lighting looked a lot cooler in some of the previous clips.

    The Sniper has had a tripod since CE....

    I actually quite like that scope, and the fact that the edges are more obscured than previous games (perhaps it's just the blue which is throwing me) could make just sitting there in scope a little harder, which is fine by me.

    It's something about it. The thickness of it.

    It's a bit like using a thick pen to create finer details. It kind of works, but it isn't quite right.

    It's the fact that the tripod was resting on the ledge that made me think it was functional

    To me, it looks like you're doing your best to find negative aspects within the game. Every single thing you've said after you've linked anything has been negative. Whatever, each to their own.

    The characters look fine, but **** I hope we have a lot more helmets than that funky one.
    The sniper scope looks great, too.
    And I adore the armour, not counting that helmet.

    B stands for Bipod Stevo.

    F stands for friends who do stuff together ;)

    @Neo Release date is November 6th. That is not negative. However, the release date is November 6th.

    = "It makes me want to cry"?

    I've been accused of being a bit pessimistic and negative on occasion but brother, you blow me out of the water.

    Well then you arn't a pessimist. Or an optimist. You're dead. Because I just blew you up.

    A pessimist is an optimists realist.
