I think there should be some better blood effects in this game. I mean, the last one was great, but I think that H2 should just be God in that aspect. i.e., have blood that runs down the MC's suit whenever he gets shot enough. If they are going to have the wear-and-tear on the suit, why not have the wear-and-tear on the Chief? I don't know...maybe it's just me. What do you think?

I can't help but think of Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance. Sure, the excessive blood was right at home there, but effects like that would be greatly unwelcome (in my opinion) in Halo 2. Now, I guess if they did it in a tastefull, Bungie manner, it would be much more appropriate... But to be honest, I have no complaint with Halo:CE's blood effects. Which leads me to think; "If it 'aint broke, don't fix it."

The blood effects should definetly be more gory. If a rocket hits someone i wanna see body parts go flying. I am out to get kills and killing is messy work.

I think that all FPS should strive for realistic damage modelling, and not only in blood. Imagine firing an overcharged blast from a plasma pistol at an Elite and watching his arm turn to ash and his plasma rifle overheat! And in multiplayer, sniping someone through the helmet and seeing a little drip of gray matter...

Rockets would be f***ing crazy. Still, it's more fun to see bodies fly than gib instantly when hit by explosives. Heh, after a plasma grenade you would just see a floating ash silouhette of the Covies before they drift away in the wind.
