I wish they would make everything unshiny.
EVERYTHING IS SHINY IN HALO 3.
Just something I wish they would fix.
Last time I checked. Rocks, dirt, grass, leaves and other objects were not shiny. You want shiny look at Perfect Dark Zero or Gears of War. Where they bump map everything to the point that it looks like it's rubbed down with crisco.
WTF? Why do people want dark and gritty worlds? Do they have eye problems or do they live in run down cities with ghetto, out of date buildings? Things are no where near that bland and grey in real life unless the sky is grey. On a sunny day everything looks nice, bright and green, in the field behind my back yard, and that is how I envision a forest in Africa.
As for gore? Ok... Who cares? Spartans are in tough Mark suits with bonded bones meant to be unbreakable. I'm sure if you hit them hard enough something will come off, but it doesn't really matter when it comes to gameplay. You have to add proper weight and physics, and you have to make proper adjustments to the game engine. I don't think Bungie has the Unreal 3 engine optimized for multi threaded and multicore development, or the know how of how to use such an engine to full power like Epic. Not to mention the Halo world is already filled with models, enemies, and objects. Add gore to that and see how well the levels hold up during multiplayer. I wouldn't mind some gore as long as they don't overdo the whole thing like Gears with pools of blood. Just be happy we can knock the Flood into pieces.
