I just took a look at the screenshots posted and shuddered at the sight of the shiny new bipeds :X For the most part everything is rendered beautifully but I hope you tone down the biped's lighting or shaders before release...otherwise it's looking great and I can't wait to try it out myself :)

In my opinion, the style of lighting in the picture below would be much more suiting for H2V.

no, its called specular and thats how its supposed to be. Looks nicer, but unfortunately if you have a bad videocard you wont have to view it at all!

READ THIS: You can turn down the specular so your not so shiny so it wont be a problem just like you can in halo pc. (you should be able to at least, it would be like having a fixed resolution at 1280x1024 if you cant turn it down.....no one would be able to run it because the majority of people have terrible graphics cards).

Yes, its too shiny. It almost looks like their colors are faded. Specular everywhere looks great though.

How many times does it have to be repeated? Those screenshot were of the early development of the game and are not indicitave of the final product. Bungie is going to fix the shiny and along with some more general polishing before the release the game.

Elite 3000 was HERE >:)
Master Chief looked up at the Brute Captain, the Brute Captain looked up at him. Master Chief quickly aimed his rifle at the Brute's head and said, "LOLOLOL GTFO MY ROFLCOPTOR j00 N00b! LOL"

I don't get it, he looks fine.
