Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
Shotgun looks like a fucking cannon...I like it.
Not digging the HUD too much though. I hope they don't intend for the number overlap on the icons to stay, because it's hideous. It all seems squished together haphazardly (which it very well may be).
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
Not to be overly critical, but

If somebody posted that untextured BSP model as a WIP, I'd have quite a lot of crit for it... :/
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
u bein overly critical
Again, why the fuck would anyone leak this shit, fucking stupid ass risking his job and any chance of working in the game industry
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
This is probably a dumb question, especially considering what measures are taken after the HL2 leak, but...
Is is possible that the leak wasn't done by an employee? You seem like you know a lot about this kind of thing?
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
I'd assume that nobody but a Microsoft or Bungie employee would have access to this kind of stuff (I'm not sure if there are special cases for close relatives or not, but I wouldn't be surprised). Leaking it would be a violation of the Non-Disclosure agreement, which results in termination, and possibly a fine. It also looks really bad on their record, and pretty much screws their chance at getting a job in a related field. You leak, you lose your job and can never work there again.
The lesson here, DON'T FUCKING LEAK IF YOU'RE WORKING IN THE GAME INDUSTRY
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
I got to see some pretty cool environment and character setup today, no thanks to a special someone.
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
I'll go so far as to say that this wasn't leaked by a pre-alpha member. Further more, this isn't a "leak" which people have grown to know. They're not posting this on the interwebs for people to get hot and heavy off of (I'm not so sure about the jester kid though, but he was necessity at the time). Also, it isn't the same exact beta that is suppose to go out to everyone come the 3rd.
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
Jester doesn't have a devkit, and to my knowledge, doesn't work for M$.
He's just a badkid with an unbannable jtag, (that got banned after the leak, atleast his gt was banned, that is)
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
I really wish Detox would have said no to his begging of posting pictures and a video :|. If you're going to do crap like this, at least try to be somewhat respectful. At least jester hasn't gone rouge and put it on the interwebs...well yet anyway. Who knows with these kids.
Re: The Upcoming: Halo Reach
so thoughts about the "chess" feature
