Subject: 343 is taking forerunners to a weird level

I liked that forerunners had different architecture like on containment in halo 2. but i hope 343 doesn't overdo it.

If a Grunt has a sticky stuck to his head, and no one is around to see or hear it, does it still run in circles screaming,"Get it off, Get it off !"?

Forerunners were a pretty massive species.. When you think about how much our architecture varies throughout time and culture, you'll realize that really is no limit to what can categorize. And I'm an architecture student.

Imagine this.

You're an alien and you go to Earth and land in China for whatever reason. You spend a lot of time there but then are forced to go to Australia or America. The structures and landscape would be completely different to what you saw in China, but they're still recognisably human.

Same applies to the Forerunner. To think that the Forerunner simply stuck to one design (Enormous triangular structures) is simply idiotic.

Not to mention that growing and improvements in technology means that we can really flesh out these Forerunner buildings a lot better than we could before. They still look beautiful, no?

They still look Forerunner to me - and that's all the matters.


Thank you, jross1993.

If anyone wants to get together and play some Marathon Durandal on the xbox contact me and we can work something out.

Let me highlight a key word of the concept art video: CONCEPT. They said that it does not neccesarily represent the final game, it's just a basic concept of what they're going for. Sad that I'm the first person to mention this.

A good analogy, but I think using another Asian nation would have been a better example, or like Europe compared to America. They're different, but they're not too different, like with the Forerunner architecture. I know I sure haven't noticed much change.
