I can't wait to see Halo 5 in action.

There is some extremely nice lighting in these screen shots.

With the way Bungie treated Destiny in terms of Level/Artistic Design how well do you guys think H4 & 5 could've turned out?
Considering the design decisions in Destiny...

Not well.


Artistically? It could have looked pretty damn good. Then again, Halo 4 looks damn gorgeous.

Stinkles ban was by request, to help focus on the run up to the MCC release. He is still cooperative, clothed and sober at last check. Post release that will likely change.

Um. This is the Halo thread, right...?

I thought it might have been something like that.


Anywho, on with the Halo.

Or more appropriately for me, the sleep.

I'm probably the first to say it, but I really dislike the geometry. Reminds me of that organic scarab thing



The artistic style for the Covenant really came out of nowhere. At least it's blue/purple, I guess
The Covenant design has always been pretty organic.

The Banshee, their drop ships, larger space ships.



On a somewhat related note... Have we ever seen covenant architecture which isn't a spaceship? I mean like buildings and stuff.

mmhm... I'm kinda curious about the orange reflection on the left wall considering the orange light is all the way down the corridor. Should be interesting to see in real time.

Yeah, I'm all for a higher polygon budget, but some of the bulbous stuff here looks more like errant biological growths than the predictable curves of prior Covenant art.

I don't disagree.

It doesn't read great on the eyes, nor does it seem right for the Covenant. I prefer the approach Bungie had with Reach:

However, I really like what 343 did with a lot of the Forerunner levels. And the textures and lighting on the Halo 5 midship do look really nice.

Heretic, Halo 3's remake of Midship looked pretty nice IMO.

Didn't play super nice, but...yeah.

Wait that scarab thing was in Halo 4? Never saw that before.

I think it looks awesome. As long as the sight lines and visibility aren't compromised, I'll be happy. I'm slightly worried by the smokey / foggy look some of the pics have.

Halo 5: Guardians release November 10th, 2015.


?!?!?
Damn, nice catch.

lol that, "clock" reads different numbers everyday. I don't think anyone actually knows what it's for.
Yall applied the Reach reticle bloom algorithm to a clock?

  • Ridley's not a playable character.
  • Mewtwo isn't until Spring.
  • All this cool shit revealed for Smash, but none of it will be online. And why the hell is online so limited in general anyway? Why can't I search for 2 randoms as a party of 2, and with Team Attack on, in 2014? Bullshit.
  • Halo 5 Midship is ugly and too dark, currently. You people are crazy, original purple is sexier.
  • Stinkles banned..
  • CE Pistol* still weeks away.
  • Combat Evolved 2 still unannounced.
This world sucks right now.

I love Smash, but it doesn't even come close to Halo. I probably won't even buy it until my friends and I get together to play it for the first time, which could take weeks.
