Title: WIRED Halo 3 Feature - Has me a tiny bit worried.
Post by: MrAngryFace on August 20, 2007, 11:51:47 PM: I hope this guy is balancing for easy mode:

"That enemy can kill a player in three shots," he says, "imagine your mother playing, where she's barely learning how to move around in the game-- bam, bam, bam-- dead. That's not going to be a fun experience."

PLEASE DONT PLAY BALANCE HALO 3 FOR PEOPLE WHO WILL NEVER PLAY IT! THE MOTHERS WHO LIKE HALO 3 DEMOGRAPHIC IS SO TINY! STOP NOW!

It wasn't easy to see in the dark in Halo 2. WTF's up with having high tech armour but only having a $5 flashlight?

Hyp: I think drinky and TVC will be up for it too. I mean Halo 3.

Post by: hyp on August 21, 2007, 12:54:47 AM: btw maf, i read that entire wired article. it's pretty damn amazing that MS hired a fuckin' psychologist to run their halo 3 testing facility. additionally, the analyzation of "choke points" in certain maps and player progression is amazing. i really hope they put all that data to good use and give us a solid experience as opposed to dumbing it down for my mOmz.

what did it exactly say the psychologist would do or suggest? I remember Half-Life 2 had a psychologist to manipulate the faces of the characters so they look convincing.

for flashlights, in Halo 2 they made it so there wasn't any meter but if you used it in a sunny area, it would shut off after a few seconds but in dark areas there was no time limit. also, it was attached to the gun which is why it would move when you reloaded. in co-op, it looked like it was attached to your helmet though.
