looks good.
OP screens are probaly a bit cleaner than the real thing, but fine.

Have they said how many players can exist simultaneously within a public event?
It IS pretty odd to see someone actually excited for games around here.
Looks pretty. Shame about the clunky generic sprint+ironsights gameplay, instead of something original, something more fluid and fun, these guys made Halo fucking Combat Evolved ffs..
I'm also worried about the lack of proper narrative and main character, just wandering around the pretty landscape doing generic/gamey missions might get old fast.

I wanna see some gameplay from the third person perspective. Decking out my character, customizing his looks(I wanna run around with no helmet on) will be much more splended from third person. I will only swap in to first person during combat some times. Like Skyrim
I honestly can't rationalize how anyone could have this opinion.
Gameplay sure, fine. But the art direction here is anything but generic

It's not coming to PC.

Well, yeah, to see someone excited for *every* single game is quite refreshing, in this sad sick world.
No one actually believes that.

Looks like Rage, Halo, Mass Effect, and Killzone had sex.

There are plenty of games coming that I do not give a shit about sir.
It's not confirmed for PC. Yet. Bungie made it sound like that was a real possibility.
Also, it's very likely that pre-release shots for a multiplatform game like this aren't taken from any particular console devkit.
The stuff they were doing with reach shows they are going to knock it out come competitive multiplayer.

I'm disappointed that they didn't stick more closely to the original Jamie Jones concept art.
In comparison, the character models seem very clean - like action figures. There is less sense of atmosphere and realism.
I agree. This had more 'texture and 'atmosphere'.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
To be blunt, Bungie do not have top of the industry 3d modellers working for them and haven't for a long time. They have guys that know their lighting engine, and AI, but graphically their stuff doesn't match a lot of the rest of the industry.
Not sure why its an area that continues to go without being upgraded across the board with new blood and whatever it takes, but there we go. Always a shame to see such fancy concept art go pretty unrealised and unachieved.
I'm actually expecting something much less balanced then even Reach.
I'd love to be wrong, but I'm guessing something much more loot-weapon/class driven with your character carrying over from campaign. Maybe some weapon gambling hooks or something.
I'm also expecting Public Events to have some character controlled enemies for some adversarial MP to appear in the campaign experience.
God willing, they'll go the Guild Wars 2 route and have standardized equipment and only cosmetic unlocks for PvP.

This just reminds me that the next expansion for Borderlands 2 comes out next week. Sweet!
In all seriousness though, I like the look of the scale of the world in those outdoor shots and I'm a sucker for a sci-fi setting, but nothing quite jumps out to me yet with this title. I really want to like it though. Guess time will tell.

Agreed, that image had me salivating...
Might be somewhat justified in that a lot of the helmets literally don't have a visor big enough to see out of, so they might use external cameras and some sort of internal screen that could produce the effect.

Love bungie and love halo but not sure about this game, every walkthrough I've seen plays out the same each time, might just be for e3 but when enemies appea r, when ure partner appears e.t.c seems all too scripted, I was expecting halo level of adaptive AI.
Plus alot of the level seems very linear, like they mention u can travel into the distant mountains but then have a line of conveniently placed car bodies to stop you from going in that direction.
I could be way off though, anyone have any solid Impressions? No matter what walkthrough I see it always plays out the same as the stage demo, including when ure partner dies at the boss fight

Not really when you consider it's cross gen. I'd imagine a next gen onl sequel would put it to shame.

I think it's supposed to be a lot more open world than the narrow corridors they've shown. And each walkthrough was heavily scripted to be exactly the same, from reviving the other player to getting a critical headshot. You can tell they wanted to show us certain things like that, they even showed the weapon upgrades in the exact same manner.
In other words, I wouldn't worry about it. Will it be skyrim level of open world? Probably not. But I'll bet you it'll be a step beyond borderlands considering the social aspect and the central hubs.

The artwork is a whole new level when compared to the actual game. I'm a bit disappointed by the style ingame.

Agreed, but maybe they just haven't shown us everything. That tank looks boss.
As for the dudes, DUUUUDE that fur does it. Want.
