what Ive come to realize in the game play trailers on your HUD it shows your enemies with a red outline which makes them seem 2D ish. i think it looks cheezy and its not really necessary to use since we know the enemies and the cross hair goes red also to indicate its an enemy. what are your thoughts on this

They look 3D to me, maybe you need to get glasses or stop smoking weed.

(Yeah, I know all about that.)

It just outlines, how outline in 3D? It outlines the outer mass and moves around as you adjust your veiw. No 2d to me

Noobs can't handle AR/Pistol Spawns.

Maybe your computers graphics are a fail, or your eyes are failing.

2D is flat. Like paper. Now stop talking Hydro. Please.

I think its a bit stupid to say whether a game looks stupid based on its graphics anyway. Graphics don't make the game. The playability does. I mean really. Some of the best games ever were 2D.

It helps you in the dark and i don't really care about it, you can go splinta cell if you want lol that would be kinda cool.

Just send me a FR if you want to play.

I play any playlist, and most customs, unless your version of infection sucks.

There is no shame in saying that graphics matter just as much as playability.
Why else would there be jobs for animators and graphic designers and concept artists on game design teams?
Of course the graphics matter.

Even in VISR mode, everything still seems to be 3-Dimensional to me..

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

~Long Live Halo 2
Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

how are out lines supposed to be in 3d?

it just looks like that because its dark and the outlines are bright so you can't see as much detail in the character
