Who else could it be that you suspect then? Every time a troll comes you say assassinchief.

Who the hell cares. Stop going off-topic like little baby Sherlock Holmes's.

By George, i think you've got it, my dear Watson. Any updates on weapons, animations, campaign, vehicles, and anything i else i missed?

if you want them to update, start criticizing something of theirs, that usually gets their attention XD

ac is lke the leon trotsky of halomaps. (google it)

I've got one question, those h2 ui's for the pause menus, what happened to them? are you still planning on using them?

Hmmm...

CMT, YOUR JACKALS SUCK!

AND YOUR HUNTERS LOOK LIKE CLOWNS!

(Did it work?)

They will show when they feel they have something worth showing. Like they said, they want there to be surprises. And i'm sure they all have lives...

Not for long...

Muahahaha...

*Snipes rabbit with CMT sniper rifle*

Wait, what were we talking about again?

I like pyramids!

What he said. Stop quoting quotes.

Please remove this Dennis

The end of the year is coming fast, just a 21 days as of this post.

Do you think you're going to reach your goal and release the map by the end of the year? If not that's fine, please just give us another estimate on when this level will be released. Thanks.

They said late January/early February.

sad face :( and I thought it was their late Christmas present lol. That trailer/commentary got me drooling soo bad..

Right now the art assets are the biggest obstacle from release. When we reframed, we never knew we'd be able to take the graphics this far, and didn't anticipate redoing every in game asset. Everything else we've planned has been done ahead of schedule.

hey man dont rush it as long as you got your gameplay down. that was the prob w spv2, ya got the art down but not the gameplay. this times around ya got it reversed. but you guys already know that. take it easy dont rush art and most of all keep up the good work :)

well, I'd got to say, those are stunning graphics. Speaking of the graphics parts, will CMT also be changing 3rd P Animations for the marines/spartans with their crouch/reload animations? It's not really a problem but sometimes, I play Halo in 3rd person and it sometimes irritates me because it looks awkward the way they are positioned in that stance.

Oi, on that note, could we have a third-person feature in SPV3? Maybe as an option that could be enabled in the pause menu?

well last i checked support weapons will be in third person imo 3p gets messy when you try to get in tunnels and such

^This

It'd be much easier with loading screens because then it would be possible to just have empty voids instead of roofs and have it still make sense. But with everything loaded at the same time, buildings and all, not having roofs would just look horrible.
And 3rd person is very hard to do with roofs because the camera has to try to stick to the player correctly without colliding with obstacles(Such as roofs). If a smart camera could be developed, that would be brilliant though.

Are you guys going to change the spartan model, because i didn't like how the one in Spv2 looked. Something about it just really bugs me.
Maybe the shoulder pad? I don't know. But still.

That spartan appears to have mistaken Halo for a cartoon.

So do you agree that they should change it?

Completely. That artistic style may fit in Fable 1(Which is awesome), but this is Halo. ;)
A spartan in the same artistic style as the new jackals would be awesome. :D

Some people might not agree with me but i think it should look more like the halo wars spartan (I've never played halo wars).

Or the halo 4 armor,or CEA armor....and maybe even the halo reach armor.

I liked the SPV2 armor. But the Halo Wars armor would be a close second.

Holy crap-muffin that is so beast, i'm not saying it's a "necessity" but i agree that it would improve the overall look and gameplay of the new campaign, or maybe it'd be better in MP...Idk just thinking out loud.



PS: it has the legendary symbol on it's biceps, just saying.

THAT would be...

AWESOME!

you jump to conclusions, we haven't even seen what they've done with their spartan recently. remember, normals can do things you never thought possible!

I did ask-

Next modeling project....oh wait, how many of those do I have going on anyways?

1. you haven't even seen what the spartan looks like recently
2.you want it to look like a halo wars spartan but what you obviously don't know is that the model is partially based off of the halo wars spartan ALREADY
3. IF they changed the spartan model they probably would want to keep what they are doing with the spartan under wraps until they were ready to surprise us with it

SO IN CONCLUSION

Please quit making assumptions and asking questions about things you're unsure of, when there are more important questions to be asked.

NOW, if I may please ask a question without getting overwritten by five unrelated posts which has happened so many damn times before, I'd like to ask cmt: have you/are you going to extend/ed the firing ranges of all ai units? One of the worst parts of halo's gameplay is that ai don't shoot at the same distance the player does, making all long ranged combat one sided. I myself usually increase the eye sight and firing distance of an ai to 90 or higher, allow much longer range combat than the default. In this way combat for all units would feel much more intense and realistic rather than halo's rather bland close range encounters. I also would want to ask if you have considered widening the preferred combat distance for ai. the vanilla game had seemed to prefer close and encounters, and the ai were set up to prefer that sort of combat as well, but close quarters combat restricts most if not all of a combat scenario's potential, and forces encounters to have very little replay value.

Delicon, calm down. He knows he hasn't seen what the spartan looks like recently, that's why he asked if it's been changed from the vanilla one. No need to get in a temper about it :)
