i got an older brother that really dug this movie, so i went to see it yesterday. it's going to be hard to talk to him about it, because boy i just couldn't dig it. i'm sure somewhere in these nerd-ragin' 8 pages my position has more or less been covered, but mostly i don't like this film purely on aesthetic grounds. even…
For textures Bungie didnt have any one person as a dedicated Texture Artist. Textures were generally created by the environment artists as needed. We of course shared textures/assets throughout the entire game as most studios do. For Reach environment use of textures had to be controlled a lot more then before. From Halo 3…
The problem is that Level design is now dictated by the memory constraints the graphics team places on the engine and the engine's capability itself. Too many games these days suffer from this issue, where the levels themselves never actually change by direct action of the player, or even change while the player is taking…
Im seeing a lot of mistakes in the model itself, and also lots of problems with the subdivision.

Not too long ago, a good friend of mine by the name of Nicolas struck up a conversation with me about the general trend of online gaming. Sure, there were always big block buster titles to play, and yeah, they played well. But there wasn't really a lot to make each one stand out from the crowd amongst the rest. The phrase…
I couldn't agree more with r13 and adam. Polycount even before it was polycount has always been and will always be what is best for the community.
