halo reach vid

[QUOTE="skinny_man_69"][QUOTE="Aku101"]

The gameplay pics in the video looked identical to ODST vids. :| I mean I was expecting something along the lines of gears 2 level of graphics but this was just a disappointment.

Are you implying that i'm a fanboy? :?

[QUOTE="skinny_man_69"] People usually are disappointed when they are wearing their fanboy goggles. Might want to take them off before watching videoes, or you would have noticed a huge graphical improvement from ODST and Halo 3skinny_man_69

Well i'm glad we're on the same page then :)

I'm wondering how the armor abilities will be implemented into the MP experience. He said that they can be swapped out, so I assume that they can be on the field and swapped. But will that same nature apply to MP as well? Or maybe they will do it more like COD where it is perk-like and you can spawn with a certain ability already equipped.

If that's the case, then I hope there is an option to not have the armor abilities in order to retain that classic Halo feel.

Although, I do believe the abilities will add strategy to the experience. I can already imagine rushers using sprint to grab the special weapons of the map, or use it in a circumstance where the flag/bomb carrier uses it to get in/out of the objective.

Or I could even see active camo being used by a whole team. Imagine a CTF where a whole team sneaks in using active camo and then attacks all at once! :o

so its basically like equipment butit recharges between uses, and you can change it out. sweet. im interested to see what kinds are in the game.

Hmm, reminds me of TF2 for some reason, would be interesting to see how much the new armor bonus would change the MP portion of the game. Dante2710

Are we watching the same video? All I have to say is WOW and WOW. One WOW for the game. Another WOW for having a thead about Halo on SW,of all places, and to only have one or two Fanboys bash. I must say, I've seen everything now.

What ODST should have been, looks great. I really like how MS is pushing the definitive title to their games, but for some strange reason i'm getting the been there done that feeling.Adrian_Cloud

[QUOTE="skinny_man_69"] No way. Where would you ever get a crazy idea like that? Heroldp813

BTW, awesome sig!

It looks the same as ODST and Halo 3 to me. That shouldn't be a surprise though since bungie has been using the same engine since the first halo.

Sort of doesn't mean anything coming from someone who wasn't looking forward to this game anyways.

Bungie just updated their Reach page again. This time with info about Noble Team. info

Now that looks great

Probably the equivalent of photomode on Halo 3, so not far off in-game, and it is still in pre-alpha!.

ok. niiiiiice.

Looking great.

I'm not a fan of the Halo series, but for some reason, I'm getting a good vibe from this game. it sounds like they took some Crysis stuff with the sprint and camo. Thats a good thing. Part of the reason I didn't like the Halo's was because it felt too slow. I didn't hear anything about co-op. I'm sure it should be in there. The guy with the skull on his helmet looks like he means business. I'm keeping a cautious eye on this.

Do my eyes deceive me? Is this really a Halo thread in system wars of all places that isn't full of people here just to bash Halo? Now I've seen everything.

Only interested if it's like ODST. Didn't really like Halo 3.

If you go the the Reach page bungie already stated that the pics from the magazines that they've released are older builds (from october) because that build played more fluidly which results in better pics.

I can't wait for Reach. I think the campaign is going to be above and beyond anything we saw in Halo 2 and 3, and of course the multi-player is going to be great.
