In Response To: Re: Story and Gameplay Integration (Sep7imus [subnova]) : It's to my taste. That's how *I*play Halo. : And, there ARE quiet atmospheric moments in the Halo games - the most notable : one being after you first descend the elevator in 343GS and wander around : the lab trying to figure out WTF happened. That whole non-encounter-area : (you go through a LOT of geometry without any encounters), plus the crazy : marine, plus the cutscene with which it ends really adds up to some : SERIOUSLY effective atmosphere. : H2 had its moments as well, particularly wandering around Delta Halo, but you : DO kind of have to take the time to stop and smell the roses, as Steve : said. Quickest and easiest way to do this: eschew the use of all vehicles ever. Makes for interesting encounters on Metropolis when its you, a battle rifle, and one sticky against two Ghosts and a Wraith :P Plus Delta Halo is fun without vehicles, as the huge open areas, especially inside the ruins, become massive battlegrounds for you to fight the enemy on. It really gets intense trying to fight Ghosts, turret Grunts, Elites, and Jackals on foot without using missiles or explosives.
