With me not being nearly tall enough to be a Wookie...my darling wife forced me to hire and wear an Ewok suit for one of our kids birthday parties many years ago...I burned all recorded media of the event...as well as issued threats of extreme violence should any images appear in any form of publication between the date of the event and my eventual death
I went all modern for last night's viewing...watched the first 3 episodes of Halo. Must admit, from first impressions...besides the Master Chief now having a face like a well worn sandal... I really enjoyed it. The series is set just before the fall of Reach in Halo lore so there's plenty of room, despite an extremely promising start, for Paramount to get it all wrong. We'll see how it develops as the episodes roll out. It might end up as a rom-com yet
I had no expectations and I liked it. Not sure if the near end nooky is lore but, you gotta have more dimensions than alien killing machine in a show.I went all modern for last night's viewing...watched the first 3 episodes of Halo.

In the intervening four years they've abandoned this concept and instead now plan to (!) implement standard instancing that everyone else has. During those four years they've extracted an additional $295 million from backers.
Wow, I absolutely not care
I like the game. Vulnerable to what ?
Game after 10years cant make any progerss in alpha, just a moneypit with no end. (it's the full review)
Ha yes.
More content at each patch !
Not all of us, no...but then again, we were just as not OK about it when that piece of ancient history first became apparent during Citcon last year
Sounds definitely better than “fixing barebones broken crap”!
"polishing placeholder systems"
Now i've heard everything!
There will be a lot of decommissioning to make room for all the ambitious crap the gullible will hail as the coming of the redeemer. Until the next flashy bling show. Then the cycle begins anew. It's like there is digital neuraliser in CIG shows that erases all previous bullnodge they consumed. Or it's just their attention span and memory is kaputt. In any case, I'd say constant exposure to lies definitely desensitises people and dull their minds and sense.PS who wants to bet that the addition of surface NPCs will significantly improve the currently stellar NPC behaviour?
(Or that CIG will quietly decommission some bunker missions to spare the smoking servers?
I watched the first episode and it contained some of the most annoying undercranking since the glory days of the mid 90's Hong Kong martial arts flicks. And I love 90's HK flicks. This felt more like a 90's Power Rangers tv show.I went all modern for last night's viewing...watched the first 3 episodes of Halo.

And yet, many other Early Access/Playable Alpha games managed to do just that, fix bugs and deliver developed game mechanics that meshed well into the game...

Oh, wait. Many other games who went this route used placeholder graphics while developing the game, not placeholder game systems. The graphics were polished only after the game left Alpha, or even after released. But then again, they're not the ones that managed to raise half a billion dollars, most of it through crowd funding, while still managing to make multi-millionaires of the principle creative, his family, and his good friend and business partner. After all, pretty graphics and how much money a game rakes in are the only true measures of success...
