On most forums teams post pictures to show people that they're making progress and what the project looks like. The behavior on these forums is the exception rather than the norm.
The behaviour being what exactly?
Assuming their posting it here for feedback?
Jee, I see how that would be a crazy assumption.

I think he means that you guys are giving crit on work that's obviously incomplete, after asking for screenshots of the map's progress.

Clearly there is much to be done. The point isn't to receive crit. The point is to give you guys updates on how we're doing so you're not left to assume the project has fallen victim to another endless trail.
No more discussion of it.

What hurts your eyes exactly? The concrete that doesn't shine unrealistically? The darkness? I refuse to add specular to the concrete shaders simply because ce's rendering engine will make it look like shit, concrete wouldn't shine in this environment anyway. The darkness will be fixed once final lightmaps are ran.

It was on in those pictures. Think of lightmaps as the specular mask for the shaders, if it's dark, its less shiny. That's why it looks like that currently.

Just out of curiosity, what kind of gameplay does a single mauler add compared to a shotgun? I mean, it can be used as it is in Halo3, but Halo1's melee is a bit funky in comparison. Not only that, but there really isn't a need for it with the flamethrower and shotty both in the map IMO. Still, some variety would be nice I guess?

Re: In case you all forgot
Give the mauler a faster rate of fire to keep it from just being a weak shotgun.

Another solution would be to make it more accurate at a range than the shotgun.

I meant you could forget maulers and spikers and make a shotgun with blade(s). That way there would be no reason to be a sword on the map ...and I'm pretty sure no one wants a sword to Halo CE anymore.

a shotgun with blades would be kind of dumb.
i mean a blade and shotgun are both powerful only when its close range.
So why would you use a close range blade when you can simply blast them with the shotgun?

If at all, the spiker was waaaay more useful than the sword without lunge because it actually had projectiles and it could kill with one melee.
