The reload is fugly as hell.

You have no sense of style.

Not saying that you can't have an opinion, but you haven't exactly explained why it's fugly. I don't want another Halo 3 copy in here. People have said, and I agree, that there are too many Halo 3 weapons in this map. We already have a Halo 3 magnum, battle rifle, and assault rifle, all copies from Halo 3. All the other weapons will be using custom animations once done.

It's ugly because the SMG magazine is supposed to be ejected automatically, not ripped off the gun and thrown in front of you.

Are you saying that it's more practical to have a flick of the wrist snap off the magazine, than pulling it off?

You don't touch the magazine at all, it flies off on its own when you eject it. Then you slap on the new one.

Or you want to channel attention to your remake.

Precisely what I mean by "snapping it off with your wrist". And if it's possible to snap it off with your wrist, that means the amount of force required to get the magazine off, isn't that much. Which means that you should be able to grab it, and throw it away with no problems.

*facepalm*

You don't have to grab it and pull it off. It flies off on its own when you eject it.

Precisely. You don't HAVE to, but you can.



In Halo 2 and Halo 3 animations, the wrist jerks to snap off the magazine. That indicates that a certain amount of force is required to get the magazine off, NOT that it falls off involuntarily.

There are only so many ways you can flick a magazine off the SMG, and trust me I would know.

Halo Custom Edition
IN this world of Halo you can choose if you want to rip the clip off or simply let it fly off,
hell you could even make it blow up and instantly get replaced by magical waves of bubbles.

You're not understanding correctly. It's like holding something in a rubber band and pulling it back. When you let go, it flies forward. The SMG works in a similar fashion. You press the button, the magazine flies off. The flick of the wrist is recoil from the magazine flying off.

EDIT: This was the best example I could find that wasn't a 5-minute-long Halo 3 video.

It is fine as it is, although I personally think the automatic ejector looks nicer

It doesn't matter that much the point is he got the magazine off and replaced it with a new one.

True, but it's still annoying.

Dear lord, that thing? D:
I think there's only about 1 frame in that animation where the clip coming off is noticeable. Argh, that flicking motion is horrible anyway.

Still, as I told you, there's only so many ways you can flick a mag off the gun. There's Halo 2, Halo 3, CMT's, and about 2 or 3 other ways I've devised but never done properly. Reloading like this is the way of the future: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVKnURA26N8&feature=channel

At the end that would be a cool animation to have when you swap weapons. I personally would throw the empty gun at my enemies lol.

Put super cheats like grunts and elites do no more than nade you

1. I don't know you a lot, you would have to ask yourself that.
2. Your Mombasa firefight.

This version of Firefight is looking great, I can't wait for the ODST release to play the real version.

I haven't been reading the 30-odd pages so this may of been answered: When do you hope to release it?

He said "hopefully before Halo 3 ODST comes out.

before 27th of September?

Thanks jesse.

Well, I'm pre-ordering ODST hopefully if my mother gives me some cash for babysitting my little sister.

Good times... not

So, Back on topic?

Yes plox. Anyway Gamma's playing some other game right now. Protection is taken care of. So i think all that's left is maybe a few menu items, and to add my Halo 3 HUD.

Doesnt Gamma already have a HUD in there.

Back to the magazine thing, In real life you never do that to a magazine. You always put it into a mag dump pouch to be reused, not let it automatically eject onto the floor.

You know in some of your vids, at the start there is an evil laugh? well an extra could be like, you pay 600 points and te evill laughter plays. then all the grunts and jackals run away for like 8 secs. i dont know. make it expensive

Evil laugh, what?

lynx now.

just go watch the firefight vids
