H3 Phantom Update!

[laghing_rabt]

have you seen teh cov crates in hlo 2, they along with other covenent things (for lack of a better word) have a dull color to it, and from what I've seen in halo reach, may covenent stuff is also dull. also I think it is quite asthetically pleasing and it helps push menceing feeling for the covenent. their alien, they look alien, they sound alien, and the enviorments don't feel the slightest alien. the ultimate goes is to make it look alien, thats the original asthetic style.

You're belaboring an irrelevant point. The phantom the Code Brain posted doesn't look good. Even if you wanted to jump on Reach's trend of making everything dull and gray, that doesn't mean it's okay to have an end result that looks poor. "The original aesthetic style" of the Covenant is definitely NOT about being desaturated and dull.

.I never said it looks good, I was just defending using dull shaders. the dull colors add to the menecing alien feelings originally convayed by the covenent. bungie has stated it its trying to go back to the original feeling of alien for the covenent, and thats why they went with dull colors. the problem is its depth, so stop blaming the bad turnout on how shiny it is, the shine isn't that memsmerizing.look at the vidio again and you'll see that its missing depth in the actual model. he's trying to do to much with textures, you guys seem to be miss diagnosing the problem as its shine. the dull colors are fine, and I think look great, but theres no depth. I did't say anything becuse I probably wouldn't beable to do much better. also bungie is makeing things look the way they do in halo reach is to go back to conveying the original feeling of the covenent being alien, and thats why its dull, its menecing and alien.

even my dad and my 11 year old sister ooked at the video and thought it needed depth.

Jesus Christ shut up about the god damn dullness

Honestly it's been 5 day's, have you guys put any thought that it would have been fixed by now?

I am sorry for being like this, but seriously, ENOUGH of the dullness. It's been fixed. End of discussion.

I like the dull.

Oh wait no. Post some pictures. Have you got he physics working yet. I want to see it in action. Are you going to make the sides come down like in halo 3 so they get out the sides of the ship?

[FRain]

wut

[laghing_rabt]

can't wait to see it, and I like the dull. will the sides come down like in halo 3? that would be awsome, and would it be possible to get the grave lift to work? also would it have the little turrets on the side? I hated the other phantom tag becuase it didn't, and it was shiny.

[Inferno]

and would it be possible to get the grave lift to work? also would it have the little turrets on the side?

Wait. What?
Since when do phantoms pick up dead bodies?

But he meant gravity lift.
