The Halo Thread V8: Nooo Mongoose, Come Back! - Games

yea and I have to deal with it because if it does get a PC port I'll have beaten the game dozens of times.

[QUOTE=Agoat;37757092]It won't work online, though.[/QUOTE] I don't know if he ever mentioned that, but it actually would. If it was an online based map and everyone had it. So something like "CMT_Snowgrove" which has custom models and mods and all that shit works.

[QUOTE=FullStreak12;37759969]the face looks good but everything else is so fucking blurry[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure that's on purpose. Looks like the scene is trying to focus on Lasky.

[QUOTE=Agoat;37760449]The entirety of the internet isn't going to download a map for one person to have a skin they like, lol.[/QUOTE] Well that's pretty obvious. Simply stating it would work in a multiplayer fashion. :v:

[QUOTE=Arachnidus;37760435]I'm pretty sure that's on purpose. Looks like the scene is trying to focus on Lasky.[/QUOTE] almost every console game I've played is like that

[QUOTE=FullStreak12;37760483]almost every console game I've played is like that[/QUOTE] It works for the limited hardware. Lower the LOD on background models and focus on what's in the foreground, and you're likely to make the scene work better.

I'm not talking about the blur behind him (which i believe is on purpose), but his jacket.

It doesn't really look blurry at all, tbh. Maybe lower quality than the face texturing, but I really can't see it.

[QUOTE=Arachnidus;37753540]They are featured in a new Infection type called Flood, and have "deadly claws for melee damage and enhanced vision". Have a picture.

[QUOTE=DaysBefore;37760957]I actually thought of the Lambent from Gears 3 when I first saw them. I prefer the old infected marine models.[/QUOTE] Yeah I can kind of see that but to me they seem to match up with the Librarians more.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;37760971]Yeah I can kind of see that but to me they seem to match up with the Librarians more.[/QUOTE] The musculature is off, but they do have a similar skinless-ish appearance, and their mouth opens a lot alike, yeah. They look to much like mutants, not enough like infected people really.

They're suppose to be infected Spartans, but the image quality is crap, hopefully they'll release an official screen soon, or someone will make a better scan.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;37761128]They're suppose to be infected Spartans, but the image quality is crap, hopefully they'll release an official screen soon, or someone will make a better scan.[/QUOTE] Oh that's why the chests are weird but they still look like Librarians.

These don't have that. Seems wierd to me.

okay

[QUOTE=Arachnidus;37760622]It doesn't really look blurry at all, tbh. Maybe lower quality than the face texturing, but I really can't see it.[/QUOTE] The upper torso texture would be way more crisp looking if it was at a similar type of resolution as the face, it has a couple of decals for the stripes and other stuff on it to seem higher resolution than what it is. I could go as far and say the texture for the body would have to be double higher resolution to be as crisp as the face. When you say blurry it is the lower texture resolution. Because no game developer intentionally blurs textures.

[QUOTE=KingKombat;37761775]You might wanna change your avatar to the blue version for transparency.[/QUOTE] But I used the blue version. Unless you mean the blue spartan itself.

Aw shit. Something's wrong. The blue avatars are 64 x 64, but they're not transparent on blues anyways... Fucking facepunch wat r u doin. [editline]22nd September 2012[/editline] It's transparent up until it gets uploaded to facepunch, WHAT THE FUCK? aszdnbrfjqkhaeq [editline]22nd September 2012[/editline] Try these blues [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36642022/mviblue.png[/img] [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36642022/mvigolde.png[/img] [editline]22nd September 2012[/editline] As it turns out the avatar size for blues is now 60x60.

[QUOTE=KingKombat;37762045]As it turns out the avatar size for blues is now 60x60.[/QUOTE] Hmm, it looks like I'm still lacking transparency. Also, I believe the avatar is lower resolution when I use it, compared to before. Wouldn't have anything to do with me having to save it right? When I try the URL is says "Remote file is too large".

Halo 4's Flood gametype better not involve the pistol, Infection in Reach was basically Duck Hunt. They should either stick to shotguns, or give the zombies a health increase.

[QUOTE=Funky Pickle;37762971]Halo 4's Flood gametype better not involve the pistol, Infection in Reach was basically Duck Hunt. They should either stick to shotguns, or give the zombies a health increase.[/QUOTE] That pretty much describes Halo 2's infection.

343 seems to be doing well with Halo 4, I actually hope they expand and create Halo wars 2...that was quite the good game.
