How halo is over buddy? First of all you're not being specific down here why don't you show us a damn proof if cry engine 3 does have potential.


This is totally bullcrap.

By posting this thread is silly.

Eet jij graag kip?

I think he's suggesting that someone adds halo 3 tags to the map and re-release with a Spanish name.

take a look at http://www.moddb.com/mods/brutal-doom this game 1993 et is a good game some engine r good old or not but halo ce engine can do a lot more

Not sure if you are on his side...

> Tries to show that Halo CE has potential

> Shows a campaign that nowhere near meets modern standards(I mean, I appreciate it a lot as an aspiring dev myself, but I don't imagine regular players(that aren't living in a basement, with a decade old PC) would really care for Lumoria's level of quality, especially when it comes to animations)

lumuria was pretty good, too bad it made my laptop overheat. happy birthday to me yay

I think you mean

What you are saying is that it is all relative. Do you honestly think that Halo CE, by itself, is even capable of producing things that Cryengine, UDK, or even Source can make? No, it can't.

Like I said, its relative. If Lumoria isn't meeting "modern standards", then what is? CMT? It's like saying almost everything else on this website is the most horrendous crap you'd ever find in the gaming world. I have yet to see anyone else really produce anything on the scale that Lumoria was except for CMT, and even CMT is using a "extended" version of the engine, and really only on a visual standpoint (That isn't implying other maps are bad). You do realize that when it comes to making a game, you have to take in much more in account technically then just graphics? You need plenty of other small things that allow you to do much more.

Also, this thread was a joke, as if you couldn't tell anyway fyi.

I was in fact implying that Halo CE does not have relative potential.

Halo CE is a great game and it will be great for a long time still, but it does not meet modern standards, and the engine does not have much potential left, unless OS gets a lot more support.

I really think potential is the wrong word here.

something more along the lines of "Halo CE does not live up to modern AAA standards" is more fitting...

Considering CE can't be used for indie, other AAA, its 10 years old, etc. I agree that it wont live up to modern day standards, but for the people who want to stick around and keep using it, they have alot of areas to keep exploring. That being said, its still limited, unlike the other engines that are constantly updated. Its not saying its bad, but it is limited to some extent. Its still a fun game though, but its still a shame too see the exponential decrease in activity of producing new maps. I was hoping with the release of Lumoria that it would inspire others to create new maps like it, if not better, but that seems not to be the case.

Wow this place has gone quite downhill since I last posted for real. Gosh. Higuy's still here too whoa reunion time of old people...who are 18, actually. Hah?

Lumoria doesn't represent the potential of CE graphically, but rather just some neat things that can be done when competent-enough people get together. I quite enjoyed the campaign.

In terms of potentiality in graphics, shoot your eyes towards CMT for that one. It's really neat the stuff we can still somewhat pull off in the engine and the coding-extensions that Korn and others have worked on.

Don't worry, if everything works out how I hope it does, there will be a nice big mini-campaign ;)
