I updated the thread with the links to Bungie's official as well as final list of winners.

Also, it's a cinematic, not a trailer. I expected more but still, this isn't meant for hype it's just in game so what can we retain?

These Spartans aren't from John-117's breed. They could be the later one since George-52 isn't one of the 34 or so spartans that underwent augmentation. Also, no spartan except for Kurt ever reached the rank of officer and we already have 2( Lieutenant and possible Commander). That one arm girl is not heard of in the out of game cannon either

Or maybe, atlast, have a eral squad based engine ala Ghost Recon. I've been waiting for this... and technically, since the RTS portion has been made this is the last one remaining to be done in the genre

When I saw the trailer I thought there was an engine change but seeing it in higher res today made me doubt. It sounded more like an updated Halo 3 with different art direction... nothing more...My explanation is the way the Warthog moves and brakes. It's the kind of ''Been there, Done that'' feeling. The character animations are a HUGE improvement over Halo 3 and ODST however. They're much more natural and fluid this time and the game looks a tad bit less cartoonish.

Rendered in-game no less. All of it.

Well then you're stupid.

THAT TRAILER WAS SOOOOO EPIC!

You haven't truly seen epic then.

uh..

You could include in your quote the part about the way the Warthog behaves. Of course it's not the Halo 3 engine. The question is, is it upgraded Halo 3 or something from scratch? That's the real question. If it's totally new, then i'm eager to see what bungie can do.

no no no no NO



Every one of the Halo engines was an improvement of the last. None of them were truly built "from scratch." Imagine, from a business standpoint where you're a developer wanting to push products as soon as possible, how much extra work that would be.

Much like Unreal Engine 1, 2, 2.5, and 3 which all grab their roots from the previous engine, I'm sure there's Blam Engine 1, 2, 3, etc.

Spartan III

^ Not even, It's more of like the Mark V armor mixed with ODST armor. Also I don't know why they made the helmet look more like an ODST helmet, why didn't they just use the Mark V helmet?

Spartan III program was begun after the events of Halo CE.

BS MODERN WARFARE II FTW

guis! guis! hai guis!

i would like to join the hrmt because i feel that i can make things sexy .

opinion is opinion but i think they should have used the mark 4 from halo wars, this kinda seems to odst like.

Exactly my point. Now, bungie could use redoing some things differently even if they're updating the Halo engine.

BATTLE RIFLE.





Check out the scope, its the same one in the leaked screenshots.
Edited by Advancebo on Dec 13, 2009 at 04:35 PM

actually if you look closely in the pics above, and the leaked fp pic closely, they are actually quite similar

Looks more like a Sniper BR to me.

I guarantee when the game is released whatever gun that is will not be called a Battle Rifle.





Not only is the design different (drastically, I might add), but the functionality is apparently going to be different as well.

Single fire, and a smaller clip. You can tell by the hud in the FP screenshot it holds less rounds.

They are not the same gun.

It's obviously a Battle Rifle. Why would the make something near identical if it wasn't, especially in the same series of games?

Think what you want, but when this comes out and it's something different like I'm suggesting, don't say I didn't tell you so. :)

It may not be called a "Battle Rifle", but its still going to be a battle rifle.

... what

Do you even know what you're trying to debate anymore? We're debating whether or not this is a Battle Rifle, the same weapon from Halo 2 and 3. It obviously is not. I doubt it will be in the same line of weapons (BR-54, BR-50, etc), but rather a new weapon altogether. The functionality and design is too different to be a "battle rifle."

Here, have a look. This sounds much more like what this weapon is going to be. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designated_marksman
Edited by Marka Haiyana on Dec 13, 2009 at 08:26 PM

The weapon is going to be a role in the US infantry?
Weapons with different functions can still be in the same model class. Example "MA5K" and "MA5C/B", they both look completely different, and they both function differently, but Bungie still put them as "MA5".

It's a -blam-ing Battle Rifle.

It has a scope.
It has a numerical counter
It has the same profile
It is used for headshots
It has blue numbers
It has an updated BR weapon icon.

It's a BR. Can you all shut up?

If it loads like a Battle Rifle ,
If it shoots like a Battle Rifle ,
If it looks like a Battle Rifle ,
Is it a Battle Rifle?

HRMT WAS FIRST, BlTCHES


the left hand would normally be up higher, I haven't made animations yet.
