This was all they showed...
MC Montrose asks,
Hi,
I was wondering if you could elaborate on what you did for the select press members after the showing...
I hear you flew them around the environment of the trailer...
how was the framerate? how did the press react?
We flew them around the environment, flew out over the Forerunner structure, did a close-up of the Chief to show the realtime reflection of the visor (you could see the ammo counter running down in his faceplate) and showed off the unified lighting model we're using - particularly how other surfaces, such as sand, reflect light back up onto his armor. Frame rate was silky smooth, but to be fair, that was basically an empty environment with the Chief in it. However, we're obviously trying to make our finished game silky smooth too. I don't know how they reacted, but one journalist asked me if I had gotten any death threats.
