Re: Had me wondering too.

In Response To: Had me wondering too. (Quirel)


: I mean, the whole level was fairly problematic. The Mammoth has problems as
: an artillery piece, the biggest of which is that it apparently can't shoot
: at something unless the target is illuminated with a laser designater. And
: nobody thinks to keep a few spares in the vehicle.

: But the Infinity? The gravity well was right below them. Even if it was
: somehow screwing with their sensors, shouldn't Ensign Patchetsky have been
: able to grab a laser designater, lean out an airlock, and light the darn
: thing up?

: I didn't notice that you could direct the missile, even after my second
: playthrough. It just never occurred to me that it was anything more than a
: static cutscene.
: Then my brother plays it and notices it on the first try. >.>

: I'm still baffled by its inclusion.

Wait? You can? For the whole two and a half seconds it's on the screen. WHY?? Give me a live in game shot of Infinity MACing the thing from way off near the horzion or a cutscene like Reach's but without it looking like the Frigate is bonking into a structure made of children's blocks… Halo 3 got it mostly right, with the MAC rounds being fired and impacting in somewhat spectacular fashion as Truth's Keyship left. Just do that again but with better graphics!
