Sounds good, but did they really expect firefight to have high res textures with all that going on? Even gears and uncharted lower their textures for MP modes.

Yes. I'm more excited about ODST :). Though I may not get it right when it releases...so many other must haves!

One negative though. The maps (and going by those screens) have never been as good as COD or KZ2 IMO. But they do compliment vehicle play well.

ODST is really shaping up into one hell of a game. And it's not far off, either.

That's the kind of bs I _know_ the GS reviewer will say. They'll probably say something stupid like "Why's there no new multiplayer" when it clearly has Halo 3 in the title :roll: I can feel another Mako-esque event coming because it's pretty obvious no one knows wtf they are talking about when discussing this game.

So after watching the trailer and views most of the screens, I don't see any problem with the visuals. Looks good. Won't win any awards, but the engine is still pleasing to the eyes.

I find that with most games this generation. Sure, not all are graphics king or queens, but the majority are still nice to look at.

While the expansion looks really nice, I'm not lying when I say I'm only getting it for the beta for Reach.

It could be bullshots, but considering how old the engine is, I'm sure it would be a shame if Bungie didn't optimize for the best quality.

Firefight mode sounds better than I thought it would be. I'll probably like it better than Horde.

It already wins, because it doesn't have a predictable pattern for enemies except for the last one which will spawn brute chieftains.

Gears 2's horde mode is fun, but usually always amounts to the same strategy.

Um, halo 3 has some of the highest resolution textures (console wise)

Personally, I found the only problem with Halo 3 graphics was lack of AA, the textures, particle effects, draw distance etc. were very clean and smooth.

Hmm.. Ill probaly pick it up, I never played the rest of halo, and this seems a good spot for me to start at, with no background story. The graphics look pretty nice too.

I hope there will be hunters in it, those were always my favorite enemies to fight in the halo games, thats why I play halo 1 so much cuz that game had the most hunters in it :P

One of the ODST trailers showed a hunter in Firefight. It was green though. :o

No, it is lack of AF, that make really high res textures muddy without AF, the draw distance is like 10km lol.

I'm happy I just really got into Halo 3 multiplayer, because I haven't bought any maps whatsoever. So this is a killer deal for me.

Same for me, I haven't bought a single map pack for Halo 3 multiplayer. As soon as I heard that it is coming with all the DLC maps plus the new ones I decided to wait for Halo ODST before jumping back in. Great deal for people like us!

Doesn't look as good as the first screens. Also, why isn't anyone saying "Firefight is stole from Gears 2" like they did with Uncharted 2? Typical fanboys.

We knew for a while Firefight was a part of H3. and its on the same system as gears, it'd be like an R2 fan complaining that KZ2 had similar co-op or something. Why ask questions you know the answer to?

Did you not find it annoying that if you wanted to play with friends most of the playlists were off limits?

tbh I couldn't understand why they had to dash the comunity like that.
