way to copy it out of the Bungie Prepare to Drop panel presentation give at PAX.

Have you thought about playing as an ODST? I know having energy shields makes it unfaithful to the canon but WHATEVER. It would be a pretty cool touch IMO.
Yep, I've thought about it.
You played as an ODST in Domain, the map's "prequel". I was pretty proud of my ODST, too, I managed to get the camo on their suit to match their team without it looking stupid as fuck.
E: Radiosity running.

Going to remove the smoke, I don't care for it, myself.

The "escalators" (which aren't going to move and thus are more like stairs right now) to the blue flag:

Finally, a tribute to a fallen Spartan (going to light the area up better later).

Oh god, those fp arms :gonk:
Don't worry, I'll fix 'em.
I didn't like them in Domain, either, tbh, but it made more sense than Spartan arms.
Will there be ODST arms?
Lighting is off to a decent start, but you REALLY need to work on your textures man.
Depends on if I can find a good pair of ODST arms.
I'm not a texture artist, I'll be the first one to tell you that. I will try to work on the textures, but I'm going to need someone who is a bit more professional at it than I am.
About a quarter (I just counted) of those are actually borrowed from the H2CE team and slightly modified, if they were modified at all.
I see Snaf's watching this thread, and now I await his bashing of every little detail. Don't worry, I <3 your crit, Snaf.
