Subject: When Halo 4 comes out, will it lack the amazing art style of Bungie?

I'm not going to make a long thread but i will miss the art style of Bungie.

So what will happend to the artistic side of Halo?

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Erm... Halo has a very definitive art style, 343 are always going on about how they respect the foundations of Halo and are going to stay true to it so I don't think the art style is going to suffer at all. It can only be enhanced with all the new Forerunner stuff.

All of that colorful gray.

We should know better, because we are better.

I can see more harsh lines and fewer curves in the future. I can also see a lot of grey colors. I hope the game will not solely feature artificial forerunner architecture because then the whole game will end up looking like it was made in Forge World.

I'm talking about the teaser for Halo 3:ODST, the stickman thing, and the art on loading screens in Halo Reach, that kind of stuff.

But maps and those sorts of things too.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

I honestly think Halo will just fail without Bungie.

Just like I said. Gray.

Allow me to clarify. I meant the STRUCTURES.

Pretty grey. Very beautiful. Very nice.

I think that we can all agree that the next few additional Halo games will have major differences due to the absence of Bungie. It's our job as gamers to decide whether or not those changes will be positive.

It will be disappointing if 343 mess up the art style, especially with the wealth of existing material to work off. Having said that the trailer did not look good, with seemingly pointless changes to the MC (yes yes its a trailer).

Trailer, Halo CEA.
Placeholders. The helmet couldn't be finalized in time for the trailer. I'm disapointed in you.

CEA - fine. I get that.

Trailer - why would the armour look different? What would that achieve by saying "Just remake the entire look of the Chief" unless they really do intend to change his look. It doesnt make any sense either way. It's not like it would be difficult for 343 to access detailed 3D models of the Chief now is it?

The art is in the architecture, not so much the color.

343 has Vic DeLeon, one of Bungie's environment artists, working for them. They'll be fine.

It's mark V but with updated graphics. That helmet was not the final version of the helmet.
