i want to ask about damage, is there going to be any? What i mean is, if your spartan is shot with a rocket launcher in the head would it really still be there, and what about the super-powerful, long-range spartan laser that can take out a warthog from across the map leaving a gaping hole. shouldn't master chief have some horrific injuries. Since this is the Beta all might be fixed later, but it looks as though nothing will change. In halo and halo 2 the reasons for keeping back these type of injuries was obvious, there just wouldn't be enough processing power for a good enough effect, but H3 has got no excuse, whats the deal, look at gears of war, i dislike gears of war overall but one thing they nailed was the realism of wounds, if halo 3 is ever going to beat gears then some major enhancement of damage are needed.
an example would be...maybe some bullet holes in MC's after he was just taken down by a turret, his armor isn't excuse for no blood, if he can be killed he can bleed when he is dead too. but don't get me wrong I'm not a gore addict but i think a realistic corpse is needed if you want some real satisfaction, gears of war has it, and people still like gears, why not halo. And if the humanity of it is too much for some, just allow the gore to be turned on and off, i think bungie still has time to do this unless it has already been done, and i think is has to be done. ok enough flaming, and for some complementing i believe over all the beta has gone over well, and its a lot of fun, just think bungie needs to reinforce that the game isn't done yet, so people so yelling about the half finished stuff.
