Halo Wars 2 Official E3 Trailer

[@hattyee205]

I think the most brutal part is that Cutter gets to know his crew personally, and often walks around the ship interacting with them. Every person who dies in Wars 2 will be like losing family to him, especially after decades together.

LastLoneWolf FTW no! geez you people wont stop complaining about the marines looking different, the marines look different because since the war is over they don't need to look ready for war. these marines are still using the old armor because they haven't been around to get new marine armor so stop complaining that the marines look different when they look different for a reason. that and the UNSC ISN'T RUNNING OUT OF SUPPLIES, THEY WOULDNT HAVE INFINITY IF THEY DIDNT HAVE SUPPLIES, YOUR LOGIC FAILS.

[@DarthCinema]

KZbinr Analyst Your opinion. Weapons and vehicles are always being upgraded. (Bungie had 3 variants of the Assault Rifle in their halo games) You're free to disagree, of course, but I know it would feel out of place for the UNSC not to incorporate alien tech into their arsenal, seeing how woefully unprepared they were for the Covenant. It makes sense, and if you explore the lore, each Spartan armor variant has it's purpose, and Bungie started that with the multiplayer allowing customization. It does not destroy the story, so your statement kinda feels like an overreaction, but it's your opinion, so we'll agree to disagree.

This is quite possibly the best Halo trailer in a long, long time. It has the feeling that made us all fall in love with Halo originally; an uphill and desperate battle against an insurmountable and seemingly invincible enemy. And by that, I mean it's not Halo 4 or 5; which in and of itself is an amazing quality.

[@joemomma2189]

I had trouble enjoying halo 4, and have yet to but 5, but I get what you're saying . It has the feeling of desperation behind it, where the fight feels like it is for our very lives. In my opinion halo wars was a greatly under appreciated game, and showed just how much actually went into the war behind the scenes. They didnt fight planet by planet, the covenant at the time were doing a blitzkrieg, and this scene captures that all in one.

[@hallowjupiter6305]

[@ktandantaktee1439]

Eh, Reach had too many stupid and avoidable deaths to have that feeling (aside from a few missions.) 1, 2, 3, and ODST were what I was referring to.

[@dawsongranger4940]

I'm happy in that they're using halo 3 armor instead of halo 4s and 5s armor which was worse. The art style at least for the cutscenes is dark. Actual in game art style is happy fun time bright colors and the units look like blobs of potato given form and armor. Other then that halo wars 2 looks good.

Change the art style (The Classic one is in this video}.Further a cliche plot about AI taking over the world.

Making it more "realistic" influenced the gameplay in a way to where it went from a pseudo-arena shooter to a watered down destiny

[@thefabulouskitten7204]

***** Its realism steven halo has always tried to make everything look realistic its just the change of scenery from a battlefield to a different landscape. Really? I mean chief always has been a very serious character but from all the time he has spent with cortana it makes sense he would care about her if you spent literally close to 8 years with someone constantly with them around you would care about them too chief still has emotion you know. What do you mean he doesn't care about protecting the world he goes off order in halo 5 because he wants to try to talk cortana into some sense and eventually he realises she is already lost and helps locke. Seriously they are super soliders not little plastic army men they simply made the combat and everything more fast paced. Its not watered down destiny really people just because it is fast paced doesn't mean its a watered down version of another game maybe it did change the gameplay some. So what? honestly i find halo more intresting and fun to play because of it you dont have to walk all over gunning down covenant for 10 hours to find a button that opens a door.

All the art style is very weird with the pointless detail to the railing on all vehicles that don't need them compared to other halos that had a clean look. The only art style change I like from halo 4-5 is the forerunner art because it sticks out and is somewhat simple. Other than that, halo 1-odst (and halo wars 2) are better at art having art style.

Yes x 1000. Everything from the Elites, Spartans, Marines, and the weapons like the classic Battle Rifle look amazing here. They just need to do this in Halo 6.

[@CrapesVHS]

As time goes on the technology changes, which is why everything looks so different. That being said the Elites are still flatfaced like they were in H2A.

[@GameBantz]

They didnt have to make such a big leap though. look at every star wars film. there is a consistent art. play halo 1 & then 5, completely different.

[@itachi6468]

+gamebantz "I'm on my knees" what do u humans say? I think it's "that's what she said"

[@CrapesVHS]

***** I think part of that stems from the art directors from Halo 3 to Reach, and then from Reach to Halo 4. As the leap from Halo Reach to Halo 4 was mainly because of a shift in developers. Also, I think the two Star Wars trilogies all around look pretty different.

Old school halo design? I can't believe it's true!.

[@kingja2000]

Very true. These soldiers have armor that resembles Halo 2 Anniversary armor, and according to lore their armor remained mostly the same up until Halo 3. Those in Halo Wars looked similar to this, just this is more of an "updated version".

[@theinquiryplease4404]

I still think they should have just kept the original design, they would still have their millions of fans if they did. Halo Wars 2 will do AMAZING, and sell WELL ABOVE Halo 5, because it will stick to the original Halo which was the untouched leader.

[@Mega-Brick]

No; 343 shouldn't limit themselves because of sentiment. You know what we get when 343 tries to appeal to fan sentiment? We got Cortana resurrected. It is bad development to tailor your game to the way it is because of the fans' wishes. They wanted to distinctualize themselves. And I'm perfectly fine with that; we've seen, for example, the classic battle rifle, about 6 times now. Give us some new experiences and new stuff. It's like when people buy a vacation home some where. _WHY?!_ The joy of going on a vacation is to see NEW PLACES , not to limit yourself to one place _every single year_ .

[@SirPerfectful]

I mean that WOULD make sense as it is during the time period of Halo 2 and 3. Not like in Halo 4 where Cortana updated Chief's armor to make him look buff as hell.

[@maestreiluminati87]

+KZbin's Finest I feel you, but the one problem is that if we keep the nostalgia, and all of the old stuff around, eventually people will bash Halo for becoming anothee CoD that just copy pastes and recycles instead of moving on and innovating, and if 343 innovates, then they get bashed for changing the Halo formula claiming that they are destroying the game, sure, they could keep some of the old stuff around and still innovate, but they'll get bashed anyways, one thing I do not like, is the new campaing and all of the hype they did with it for Halo 5, and I keep wondering why they didn't just keep the halo 3 ranking system when everyone knows it was amazing.

[@joeball7811]

whoever in 343 said "hey guys, listen the old art style was kickass... and probably better than ours... since halo is our franchise now... why don't we use the old art style..." man hats off to that guy...

[@Mega-Brick]

Nobody said that. It was assumed from the beginning the project was conceived because that's _what the lore entails_ . Spartans, weapons, everything are all the models from 2531, rather than the upgraded tech from 2553+.

[@nathanmckinney1190]

Here's to hoping someone takes a lesson from it. Finds a good way to mesh old styles with new styles.

Why is it that the trailers like these look so gorgeous that it should turn into a movie...I mean make a movie base on just cgi and animation and not use real life action.

This goes for the SWTOR trailer that could had been a a good movie. But still love the first Halo Wars now we get to do it again is nice.

[@WitnessedOne]

agree

[@DarthCinema]

You get into Uncanny valley territory there. Why make a CG film look so lifelike when it could be cheaper to make live action. Kinda the problem films like Polar Express faced.

[@Drstrange3000]

Darth Cinema That is one strong argument. A good reason for full CG though in my opinion is that if the whole film is CG, it will not look so out of place. Some movies are able to blend live action and CG seamlessly but sometimes those CG effects can look very out of place. With full CG, I feel your only limit would be budget and can be more freeing than being confined to reality at times. Kind of how cartoons can get away with exaggerations and things. Sadly, I think full CG films are still too expensive to make right now. We will see with how Final Fantasy Kingsglave does. Looks like the most expensive movie I have seen.

[@TheKeenanmeboy]

Money bro. Money. If Diseny or Pixar isn't making it, then it's not going to look this good

I assume 343 will be writing the story and providing the artistic assets, like the warthogs and the general art style. Although it's a worry if Bryan Reed is writing the story. Otherwise though, it's Creative Assembly. This is a good decision. 343 is only just learning how to make FPS games. I shudder to think of what would happen if they decided to try RTS now.

[@MaplePatriot]

343 and creative assembly are cooperating on this.
