is A30 really going to be that desturated in the final version?

also i would like to see more vivid colors in some areas in A10 so all the corridors doesn't look all the same. That was one the more major problems when Halo 1 came out.

Halo 1, Reach, ODST and Halo 4 all have the scope, and it made them more fun to use.

Digg'n that pistol :D

That pistol looks pretty cool.

You should get a PC that can actually run SPV3 though, Masterz. The lag in that video was horrible. At the very least, disable some of the intensive effects.

M6D is like glorious Kalasnikov. There's not much reason to drastically alter something that most everyone agrees to be a good weapon.

I like that it now has a sort of machine pistol functionality for close-quarters, though. That should be interesting.

A10 is going to have a complete overhaul, A30 will be going through some changes as well.



I didn't notice any, other than when I first switch to the SPV3 footage but I think that was a WMM error.

Anyway, I'm waiting on Intel to release the Haswell processors, so Apple can update the 15" Retina MBP. Right now my macbook is about to be 4 years old, my desktop 6. My Dad's 27" iMac when using a VM outputs about the same performance as my current desktop, so the next gen graphics in the RMB should give me stunning results regardless of weather I am dual booting or in a VM (and parallels for mac lets you have your windows partition be run in a VM, so you can have the same installation of windows no matter what you do).




Well zoomed its a similar experience, but unzoomed it plays a bit different while retaining the functionality of the original.

You planning on adding any Forerunner weapons (like the ones the Prometheans used) in here too?

Sentinels will certainly be messed with but none of the Promethian weapons will be added .

Who cares if the video was entertaining or not. All I know is that there was more in the video then just the pistol (COUGH* COUGH* Grunts look happy with their new toyCOUGH*COUGH*) so how about everybody close your faces and just be happy new(ish) content is being displayed! I'm always happy to see new footage of what is going on and am happy that this vid was released. That fact is even if it was a Vidoc on a pixel I'd be happy with it.

I agree the video needs more than just the pistol.

It could have been easily explained in 30 seconds or less what the pistol does and still had time for other weapons. Background music should be added to always cut out the quiet parts. But it's a start so far, so hopefully the vidocs will improve with this feedback from the first one

Not to bring the whole "cmt vs lum" raid back in but I think the Lumoria Vidoc is a good example of how a Vidoc should be

You could have just posted a Vidoc from Bungies past.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCcmrL29WII <- This was a good ViDoc.

I still don't think people should be being fussy whether or not the video was entertaining/needed. At least it's a video that was released to show in game footage.

The ODST pistol was just the H3 one trying to be as cool as the CE one.

However, it failed, because it couldn't take out Banshees.

those shield effects...what in the world happened?!

Most Bungie ViDocs were done when there was enough polished stuff to show off, or if there wasn't, it was full of interviews and stuff. Typically CMT has put out fairly rare videos when we think it's "ready" to show off. This format of showing some pieces while hinting at others isn't so bad, and it's not an "official trailer" or anything, merely looking at interesting parts. I'd love for some legit voiceover/gameplay/analysis ViDocs, but I'm far too busy actually working on B30:E to have time for that yet.

On a completely unrelated note-

Is that a pic of a remake of Halo (the level)/A30?

It's a screenshot from a 720p youtube video.
What else do you want me to do?
It's not like I'm part of CMT.

No need to let it get to you, I doubt he meant anything insulting in that post.

SO ANYWAY
The whole point of the screenie was to point out a half-second clip of the new covie weapon hinted at here and there, and I believe I also saw some sort of carbine-ish gun used by grunts, and the turret ripped off of a warthog lying in a hallway somewhere.

It's not that small. In fact, it's a great size. If I were uploading a picture, I would scale it to that size or even slightly smaller for optimisation. Unless you're half-blind, you should have no problems seeing it.
A large image merely wastes space and hinders others' use of the forums(in that they have to scroll a long way to get to the next post).

Anyway, yeah, first thing I thought when I saw the video was 'that elite looks great'.

I also noticed though that the grunts haven't had a new model yet. Still not planned?

We can't get the old one, and we have no biped modelers on the team.

I'm afraid I forgot that the images are scaled. However, unless there are actually hidden details to see, it's a bit pointless having large images to open. The use of upload space and the use of other users' bandwidth is a bit pointless regardless really since the image is large enough for most people to see. (Yes, JPEGs are small but it 'all adds up' for some people)

DSalimander, I suggest you purchase some glasses if you really can't see images of the size provided. I can see most if not all of the details clearly.

Besides, all you did was upscale the image, blurring it in the process. I can actually see less details than in the original image. That's probably because there are less details due to the upscaling process. -.-

Didn't mind the video but lots to improve on, especially dat font.

I'd like to see the BR next.

That "new covie weapon" the elite was holding is the H4 Beam Rifle.

no its not I have already asked masters its something different.

kinda looks like a storm rifle.
Kinda.

Well it sure as hell looks like the H4 Beam Rifle!

You can see it firing, it's not.

Oh, never noticed that. I did however see the untextured carbine thing the grunts have.

Yeah... don't look too much in to that. It's a mashed together model I made for a placeholder to avoid confusion with our testers.

Didn't really like the 'advice' about how to get headshots. I mean, something like that is a thing you have to find yourself; it shouldn't be implanted into your knowledge.

I reckon you should take a few hints from that. Very nice ViDoc, and it.. really just hit's the spot, for me.

Let us talk more about CMT's project instead of fighting about things that shouldn't matter. Let's chat to have fun, not produce anger.

but without voilence we cannot have peace.

Anyways, will any of the major characters in this mod be receiving looks that differ from their originals aside from the Chief? Such as Cortana, 343 Guilty Spark, Captain Keyes, and others who played an important role?

I like Master Chief in Halo 4

hoping to use this

^Badass!

Though I really wish those falcons had actually made it into the game.
