Thoughts on "Game Engine footage"

Games Halo Infinite
1

If you notice, they say its all game engine footage. This whole trailer was i assume, in-game engine! It no longer looks so cinematic and still, super good! From how it looks, I pray it would be like Spiderman PS4 type of cutscene-to-gameplay scenario. As in you in a cutscene and you instantly jump to gameplay without any black screen. Sounds amazing. Game looks amazing. Looks nothing like old Halo (besides art direction) but also looks nothing like present Halo.It is its own thing.

I think it looks a lot like old halo actually. Like A LOT. Yeah this wasn’t a CGI trailer nor was the one last year so it will definitely be a very pretty looking game.

The music and HUD sound effect were definitely old halo.

A little detail I noticed: the sound of the hologram is the same as in ODST.

I’ll have to replay ODST, I could’ve sworn the Ai sound was inspired by Isabella from HW2.

Do you mean when he puts the chip in his helmet? Idk I didn’t recognize a similarity but that’s because I only played HW2 one time lol.

I like it. Halo Waypoint seems to be mad about it at the moment though.

No No I mean with the hologram the pilot kept watching over and over. The turn on sound with the dotted graphics for the hologram I could’ve sworn was HW2

I don’t think it is after just rewatching the HW2 cutscene, but I may be wrong. Definitely getting some ODST vibes.

I loved it. I think the only thing I was disappointed about was the lack of gameplay but people should remember that due to Infinite’s longer development cycle they wouldn’t have a lot to show or there’d be no big reveal at the next E3; the one right before it’s release.

People complaining about the look of the armor color don’t know what colored titanium looks like. And people complaining about how there’s not enough 4/5 influence need to leave; they said it’s going back to the roots.

Yeah looks great, I think it was pre-rendered in game cutscenes because it didn’t fully look like CGI.

With a little bit less gamma and a warmer base white it looks even better.

Nah, it’s just that those who are mad make a louder noise compared to those who were happy with what we saw. I saw mostly very positive reactions between friends, on Reddit, Twitter, Youtube and even here if you look through the posts.
