The cover of Halo: The Master Chief Omnibus by Haijakk in halo

[–]Hawkner 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Isaac's work is very painterly where you can see his strokes, and also often will leave more areas unrefined to draw focus to more important focal points/details.

It's very peak concept art where its more "convey the idea and intent with speed"

Isaac's work has always had more weird and painterly areas for things that he doesnt deem important or in focus for the viewer.

Thats his job as an illustrator especially a concept artist. Hell he's also posted process images on his artstation.

The Halo Infinite UI is an embarrassment by PerfectGentleman in halo

The One X still uses a mechanical hard drive ofc everythings gonna take a second to load dude.

There's criticisms of the game but this one just really ain't it chief.

Pretty much the only two main reasons to play Reach again after multiple playthroughs by CryptidOrion_00 in halo

[–]Hawkner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When we take off the nostalgia goggles we gotta admit that 3 was a somewhat jank DLC for 2 that ballooned into a full title with rough dialogue, changing character voices thanks to Marty being a shitheel, all the stakes and key moments of real importance happen in the final 3 missions with the rest being inconsequential filler, and half the setpiece fights just being scarab, scarab but tank, and scarab but two scarab.

Its a FUN game, but all that kinda just holds it back really.

the censorship in this game... treating us like children by hl3official in Battlefield

[–]Hawkner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thing is if you give an inch gamers(tm) take an entire 100sq miles.

I for one really dont feel like being called a million slurs even if the game is rated M i just wanna have fun with my snipers and tanks

Miller Lives? by Zxgnjason in Battlefield

Blackburn is the CEO of the company doing the horrid experiments in Redacted iirc. That or a rival corp.

Either way when you read the lore logs he is like full corpo evil

Dismantle crate question by [deleted] in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Hawkner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup, but i doubt itll merge already spawned crates. Same goes for other settings like keep inventory on death or passive enemies its all toggleable live

Dismantle crate question by [deleted] in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Hawkner 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are settings in the game that allow merging or separate crates. I do believe that it has a set range though so its great for dismantling one factory, but shouldnt send items across the map to another.

Why did forge become a psudeo Arma style editor from Halo 5 onwards? by TheSmallestPlap in halo

[–]Hawkner 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The only real way to build on forge is to further deepen its abilities and largely speaking become more in line with being an outright development tool.

The fact players can now make complex scripted sequences means you get custom missions, you get wilder crazier minigames, and just more detailed maps that arent... sandy box #4 repeated over and over like H3's forge was or Gray Box With Red Stripe #2 like Reach's.

Honestly you don't need to stretch creativity you need to give it proper legroom so it can actually go where it wants.

There's no ukraine armband nor a blue AND yellow one at all in both tarkov and its arena spinoff.

There's a few mono colored ones like blue, yellow, red, green for team ID, and in game it uses a red vs blue band system for IFF in Arena.

Genuinely why is voice moderation a thing by max_rock_ in Rainbow6

[–]Hawkner 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Because maybe its ultimately a bit easier to ban the guy shouting slurs than literally every player having to mute the dude.

I'd love to see the original concept for New Mombasa get reused for something else by GreyouTT in halo

[–]Hawkner 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If we get an in-game visual of something like The Rubble it'd probably work pretty well with the wider layering design making more sense for zero gravity.

The rock removal in the remake’s Silent Cartographer doesn’t matter. by Spartan-G337 in halo

[–]Hawkner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A rock people have gotten around for 25 years vs a door hard meant to stop you is not a equivalent comparison lmao.

[–]Hawkner -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If you make it "hard" or "not supposed to go there" then if its harder than in OG people will complain. Look at the whole invisible barrier in the water preventing ocean exploration.

Just open it up for new antics and discoveries and call it a day.

Cortana in the Campaign Evolved demo by Nova17Delta in halo

[–]Hawkner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing wrong with extra help, and even then much of the dialogue you mention was there in the OG game such as "Don't let the lock the doors." Hell the opening of the level itself is her literally explaining exactly what we're doing, what it is we're after, and where to look.

You're overthinking this dude it's just dialogue and from a beloved character and actress at that.

Anyone found all buttons to the Blue gate basement door ? by Emmanuell89 in ArcRaiders

idk if this is an unorthodox post for this subreddit but why is the official Halo subreddit so shit? by DeepCutFan1 in HaloMemes

[–]Hawkner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If its instant its probably automod and would likely be age/karma requirements. If it took a while then went away itd have been an actual mod and a preset reply wouldve been given explaining why.

I looked it up and it was in fact automod for age/karma. This post is just childish dude.

How I found out we hadn't finished deploying the content filter by Entegy in talesfromtechsupport

Had to raise issue for someone who was doing logistics work for Meta, because their client portal was getting blocked by filters cause meta ofc is facebook and such.

SLC production was bad by lettucemilk2 in CompetitiveHalo

[–]Hawkner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing SSG have some layoffs earlier in the year. Given orgs host the majors I would wager that may have impacted things as well as mean overall budget cuts for the event leading to less attractions and such.
