I don't see how this stuff will fit into the halo game.... Guess we'll just have to wait and find out.

Is there any actual proof that these will be in the game? Or just this little article...

Obvious bullcrap. Don't bother clicking his link people.

if we can manage to rip those tags from halo 4, i wonder if they will be to detailed for the Halo 1 engine to run. Well, time to push Open Sauce to it's limits.

Is it just me, or do those new Elites more closely resemble Zealots from Starcraft than they do actual Elites?

It's really not rocket science. Chances are, if they use normals, you can put them in the OS engine.

awesome

I have reason to believe these and the Zerg were a major influence on some of Halo's designs from the beginning. Regardless, they are all very different and I still think they're all uniquely fantastic.

And don't bring Mass Effect into the designs simply because it was easily post-Halo. All I see for the Elites is elaboration on detail and slight changes in aesthetic style (rougher skin, fingernails).

I don't consider grandma turkey flab arms to be an elaboration on detail.

I suppose "slight" applies differently for everyone. Then again, in terms of aesthetic concepts, you and I are probably not seeing the same levels of concept. There are newer details to the Elites, as you said, but the general design scheme features only "slight" changes. I have not seen the Marines, so I'm not sure what to say of them. And I can't even see why you think the Elites look like Garrus, though as I mentioned before, the levels of aesthetic concept you and I are looking at probably differ.


I didn't know Turkeys had arms (just wings) or flab.

+ rep

Well, when I compare aesthetics of two differing concepts of the same character, I classify them in levels of aesthetics. For instance, these levels would include ultra-detail or simply general form. In short, the levels are simply how I'm looking at the concept (looking at it in an ultra-detail orientation or just generally). Note, when I say levels of aesthetic concepts, I am not referring to any formal or scholarly acknowledged terminology. These terms are for my own notice. Sorry if I can't explain any better.

Not seeing what your seeing, from the get go Protoss and Shangeili had similiar forms since they both have humanoid figures with large feet/toes. This is a pretty standard design for humanoid aliens, if you look at their faces there's nothing in common.

Troll-fail.

'Nuff said.

Dear 343, Girls usually look sexier when they show skin, when elites do, they look creepy.

i dont think those environments are from halo 4, unless some levels of halo 4 are on earth

Keep in mind, ONI has been out and about some Forerunner installations, so any human constructs could make sense.

There is absolutely no information on the site that proves that it is from Halo 4 :P Therefore it is safe to assume that it is crap.

Although I do hope the first picture of the grass is an ingame render as that looks really realistic and nice!

The pictures we've seen so far seem to show the grass won't be that good. This will wait for next gen hardware, on Halo 5. That is, if M$ doesn't release one Halo per year...

New Xbox is rumoured to be coming 2014

True that. My question is, how will M$ Milk Halo even more? Will they release 1 game per year? Have ''Expansions"? Release Halo 2 anniversary? We can expect anything, including Halo 6 being a Xbox 720 launch title altho I think Frankie, if he has enough power, would try to stay away from that.

The next Xbox will be ridiculously powerful. From what I have read anyway, so who knows what we will see in it. However, it won't be powerful enough to run the Unreal Demo that was shown ages ago :(

Direct me to a link for this, plox? Sounds interesting.

Are you saying i need to buy a new xbox in 2014? Blasphemy!
