Point out any improvements you saw in ODST here, and what you hope to see in the release version.

What I saw:

-Same incredible texture and color correction work
-Modeling is absolutely amazing
-Scenery is eye popping
-Cutscenes use deeper techniques; show off the amazing ODST models
-Improved particle effects (the Brute's shield for instance, and the explosions) and lighting
-Great voice acting and ambient music
-Weapons look and sound amazing.

The only thing that itches me is the fact that the ladder climbing animation still doesn't exist.

All my opinion.

Ladder climbing animations are in cod, they fail, hard.
I hope they fix the AI. Halo 3's AI sucks hard, and Halo 3 Legendary was a breeze compared to Halo 1/2.

Also, no antialiasing from what I can see in the screenies.

I'm a dude playing a dude desguised as another dude. I hate heritics, non-logical thoughts and people who are better than I am. People tell me that they like a lot of games, but I hate them all. Whenever I play a video game, I always go crawling back to Halo 3. Never go full retard!
