That multiplayer map looks so good!
looks dope
So excited for Infinite
Great news and you just earned a new subscriber
so could I get a map feature for my Halo 5 map Unsteady😳
Im pretty sure the multiplayer map is partially in game and a decent amount of the map was painted over with photoshop to help the map artist add more detail final project
All of the rest looks great but damn they gotta do something with the Minecraft pillars. Texture, shader, reflectivity or something. Anything lol
3:45 That actually looks like a robotic limb if you look closely. You can see what looks like prosthetics under it.
The coat system that there was all that drama over is still problematic and nothing in this update really does anything to assuage that, which is dissapointing and baffling, as I'm still of the opinion that it could relatively easily be fixed.
To quote the article itself:
"The coating system allows us to define color, wear and tear, patterns, and materials on a region-by-region basis on the Spartan or anything in the game be it armor, weapons, vehicles, or even environment elements like fuel barrels"
So then allow player to choose the color on any coatings they've unlocked. JUST the color. The "wear and tear, patterns, and materials", as well as which regions are affected, can still be locked per coat and not something the player can modify, meaning coats can still be used as unlockables and monetized. Just opening up the ONE variable of hue to be something the player can change would give us as the same sort of modularity past Halo games would have without undermining the whole system.
"To get to our design vision we needed to make an exceedingly difficult decision to move away from a system that was in the game from early days – primary and secondary color."
is, frankly, bullshit. You can easily still keep the vision of coats while also allowing the player to choose the hue (not even the full color, you can still have the brightness and saturation locked to the default for the coat for that color section) of a given part of the coat.
"In our recent value balancing pass, which was a direct result of community feedback around coatings, we have looked hard at how many coatings are in the starting set and how many and of what quality are unlocked via engagement vs other systems"
Giving us more coats isn't the solution here… in fact, doing what I propose above (allowing the player to select the hues used in a given coat, even if the wear, reflectivity, patterns, etc are still locked) would mean you guys as developers would be able to make less coats, as you wouldn't need to duplicate coats with the same or similar pattern arrangement just to cover different color options.
It's baffling to me that this sort of change hasn't been implemented. It'd combine the best elements of both the coat system and what we as players want, without undermining their ability to be monetized.
The fact that it hasn't , to me, can only be interpreted to mean that the game is going to have a bunch of similar coats with nothing but the colors changed as a way to pad out unlocks, and the actual amount of coats with totally different patterns and surface materials and not just different colors is going to be small. That, or that it's going to be aggressively and exploitativly monetized and MS doesn't want to give up even a bit of profits to make players happy even if the changed system would still be profitable…. and either of those possibilities makes me less interested and willing to get the game.
Can you get the Sr 152 reward if you reach that level before launch ?
I only play Halo Reach.. I never play 1-5.. But Now I will play just because its multiplayer 😀
Not too excited about the multiplayer map design. Looks like rehashed halo 5 but who knows, maybe that's as bad as it gets 🤷
Those screen shots… holy shit boyyyyyyy
Can you reach SR 152 at anytime and still get the coating?
I hit 152, hell it looks so clean and I love the wear and tear on it. Great Coating, and even better weapon skin.
Would prefer if the sniper looked more like the original
If you read the article properly its just the armor coating you get for 152 not the armor itself
So…it's just the hydro themed map from Halo 5??
This map look like a mixe of Derelict and Wizard
