I don’t know about you but watching the Spartan IVs fight the elites close quarters in the weekly videos was a little lacking in terms of giving the Spartans a sense of speed and power that they have in the books or at least the Spartan 2/3s, no idea how fast a Spartan IVs reflexes are. So hopefully if 343 where to make another cinematic they take inspiration from this:
What do you think?
I agree. Hand-to-hand combat can be really entertaining if done right. Rooster Teeth choreographed some pretty awesome CG fight scenes for Red vs. Blue. Halo Wars also had a really cool fight scene:

Yeah, we need to see what the Spartan-IVs can really do.

I don’t expect much. Quantity vs Quality. There’s a reason why Spartan 2’s and arguably 3’s are so bad -Yoink-. They’ve had many more years of training to be Spartans. Nothing else!
-Yoink- that. CGI? It needs to be in-game!
Edit: oh I misread the op, sorry. xD

Ehhh, i disagree. They IV’s were badasses already as regular human beings (not anyone could become a IV) and having the same augmentations and MJOLNIR, their reflexes etc should be basically on par.
And yes, Halo 5 and 6 shouldn imply awesome hand to hand combat, including the Chief of course.
To get a good feel of what the OP means, everyone should watch…
Red vs Blue Season 9 Episode 10

While it is cool, the elite’s reaction times kill the mood after while.
I’m lost, what weekly videos?
Been away for waypoint and Halo 4 for awhile.

I think they mean the Spartan Ops cinematics
That’s kinda what I thought but wasn’t sure. Thanks
It’s an inevitable limitation of mo-cap, the super soldiers are limited by real life actors. I think a combination of mio-cap and full cgi would be necessary to bring out the best fights.

What’s limiting about Mo-Cap? Cause when I hear about it, it’s used as a foundation and is then tinkered and polished to speed things up. Also I don’t think it’s 100% mo-cap because this is from one of the animators who still works there and he did it by hand and I think it looks really good.
