Re: Something looks wrong with The Silent Cartogra

In Response To: Re: Something looks wrong with The Silent Cartogra (Louis Wu)


: You'll also see leaves appear and disappear on trees. This actually has an
: effect on gameplay, as the 343 testers found - what was once empty and
: provided a clear field for sniping is now blocked by foliage! (In fact,
: some of the testers used the 'switch back' toggle to get rid of the leaves
: and take that shot.)

: This has a FAR greater effect on gameplay than the presence or absence of
: mountains in the distance, but I wouldn't for a second suggest removing
: the new leaves.

Yes, this argument is a metter of degrees, but mostly gameplay concessions.

Your example is relevant as it interferes with desired gameplay.

My example changes the physical location of the island.

Not to be dour, but I'm already imagining they've altered the Halo geography as well, so what does all this matter?

Back in 2004 I worked out Halo's % land mass versus ocean, it's square mile topography, etc. All that research probably out the window. Even it's rate of spin.
