Halo | Just Dustin Echoes

By Ragnarok Flames Go To PostThat hasn't been confirmed. And only a sith deals in absolutes.

I really hope that pistol isn't the Legendary pistol. Looks nice and shiny. But dammit I want a hand cannon that looks the part as much as it shoots the part.

I wouldn't mind a revolver in Halo. Its something I've wanted since CE.

By Wesleyshark Go To PostSame folks who did the terminals for HCEA H2A and H4. 👍

Yeah, not a fan of that stuff although the content they deliver is good. Frankie says that this is fully animated not stop motion though so a bit of my hype has returned for it.

By Ragnarok Flames Go To PostCan we have actual halo discussion instead of incessant bitching. Like fuck I wanna bicth about things that matter like ADS and Sprint. Not drama on in or around other forums.

Fucking Halo.

Thank you Based Funknown
It looks like a 5-7. Or the socom custom from ODST. But white.

I mean I agree, but they are allowed to talk about GAF in an openly negative way now.

im over ads and sprint

His full quote for those curious:

"Although the painted look is terminal style, it's all animated, mo capped and face capped etc, not motion comic"

Oh nice! I wonder if that'll be what the halo 5 terminals will look like too, or if they'll be motion comic as well.

something something, ReclaimerHub made a video

I cover the recently announced Hunt the Truth Season 2 and the Fall of Reach animated series trailer.

By link1201 Go To PostYeah, not a fan of that stuff although the content they deliver is good. Frankie says that this is fully animated not stop motion though so a bit of my hype has returned for it.

Yeah not a huge fan of the motion comics. What they showed wasn't too enthralling to me, but that's because it looked like the motion comics. There is a few from Halo Legends i would rather see it made as or even Blur.

Fall of Reach moving storyboard might be neat, but nothing I'm going to put much mind to.

Still can't get over Linda having 30 scopes on her person.

Finally got that confirmation e-mail, is there any way to subscribe to threads? I am oblivious to this layout.

Also, the friendly tags above the Elites. Are those gonna be persistent due to the fact that we're dealing with Elites? I definitely don't hope so, quite the obtrusive thing actually.

Regardless, vidoc hyped me more than their entirety of their E3 showing. I have to admit that I grumbled at the (inconsistency) of the graphics at different points throughout the vidoc, especially the scene with the unknown Covenant walker (compare it to the E3 version of it). But I'll chalk that up due to lack of 60fps support and most likely work in progress footage.

On that note, 343 if you're consistently putting the emphasis on 60fps. It doesn't hurt to ensure that footage is shown in 60fps as well. It's the same with the official Xbox channel uploading only a 30fps version of the E3 footage, it isn't indicative at all of what the game looks like.

Also, hi everyone!

Yeah, kinda bummed that they're doing Fall of Reach as a motion comic. Properly animated (CG or traditional) would've been freaking amazing.

I mean, I'll still watch it 4-5 times, but it's not gonna blow my mind like I hoped it would.

Agreed do it the style of the halo 4 cinematics it would be mind blowing

Not a motion comic. In the same "painted" art style, but it is fully animated, even down to facial capture.

Great news if true. Source?

Was forge in that vidoc for like half a second or was that just their dev tools?

Stinkles said it over at da gaf.

By belushy Go To PostWas forge in that vidoc for like half a second or was that just their dev tools?

He was using a 360 controller so it's probably early development, meaning dev tools.

By belushy Go To PostWas forge in that vidoc for like half a second or was that just their dev tools?

I'm betting that Forge will be at Rooster Teeth expo.

Has anyone invited FoolishFellow and KyleJ yet?

:3

Talking about sprint and ADS is pointless. It's just never gonna end and the same shit is gonna be said.

"I'd like Halo 5 without sprint"
"I'd like Halo 5 without ADS"

Yeah me too, probably for the same reasons as you. But its too late to change these now.

1. Sprint can be turned off in settings
2. No word on a classic zoom option but I wouldn't hold my breath. That seems like it might entail a lot of work in crunch time for an optional customs feature. Not only that but smart scope is attached to the functionality of a lot of weapons.

Luckily as far as the ADS goes, it's not that bad (despite Madness thinking its the end of the world) after a while I didn't even notice it in the beta except on the DMR (which is now better) still functions the same. But it being on autos is still kinda dumb lol.

hurts my soul when it's written out like that.... ;p

We've seen a couple places now (E3, this latest ViDoc) where scope variants have much more classic-style scopes, so who knows. Maybe you can customize lobbies to set the scope type?

EDIT: Or maybe it's counted as a "cosmetic only" variation and allowable in Arena like weapon/armor skins?

No Mk. V for The Fall of Reach series is really disappointing.

By thornXBL Go To PostWe've seen a couple places now (E3, this latest ViDoc) where scope variants have much more classic-style scopes, so who knows. Maybe you can customize lobbies to set the scope type?

I think they've said a few times that you can place variant weapons down in forge.

So presumably we should be able to have bayonet AR starts.

By jem0208 Go To PostI think they've said a few times that you can place variant weapons down in forge.

Makes sense, if you can pick between setting plain jane Energy Sword vs Prophet's Bane like in beta.

I'd imagine starting weapon options may have similar customization

Is self promotion bannable here too?

Mix pls

By VinFTW Go To PostIs self promotion bannable here too?

Mix pls

Nope, we're free dude.

By VinFTW Go To PostIs self promotion bannable here too?

Can we vote out people to ban them, at least from that thread? Would be a cool feature imo

What do you mean? Like having a vote system to get rid of people in this Halo thread?

and thanks @k@do + Jem + Reilo

Gaming side is fucking hilarious.

That is all.

By vire Go To PostGaming side is fucking hilarious.

Didnt you get called a Sony fanboy today? lmao

By db Go To Post

Yo Mix, you got a new Twitter header.

By FUNKNOWN iXi Go To PostNo Mk. V for The Fall of Reach series is really disappointing.

None of the scenes we've been shown have Mk. V in the book. We've just got Mk. IV for now.

Y U P

Imagine all the dumb kids we could have gotten rid of from HaloGAF

By VinFTW Go To PostDidnt you get called a Sony fanboy today? lmao

Yep. lol

While I appreciate the legitimate discussion going on in here, I also enjoy the absolute circus that is Gaming Side. It's just so dumb... everything about it.

How about you just learn to use the ignore function and don't reply to people? Asking the mods install some sort of system to make communities walled off towers kind of goes against the whole point of this place.

So this is the place to talk about Halo now. Bookmarked.

Didn't we effectively do that to the rock, paper, scissor guy by coordinating a mass ignore list?

That guy just didn't know when to stop...

That said a vote to ban system is a terrible, terrible idea.

By jem0208 Go To PostDidn't we effectively do that to the rock, paper, scissor guy by coordinating a mass ignore list?

Was that the guy who would write paragraphs of gameplay design?

By Fata1moose Go To PostWas that the guy who would write paragraphs of gameplay design?

Yeah I think so. Might have been a different guy though...

That rock, paper, scissors discussion was some of the most mind numbingly stupid stuff I've ever seen though.

Lolol. So many facepalms in gaming side today. More than usual.

By db Go To Post

That's money. Good job!

I thought that was Chettlar instead of the other one.
