Re: My eyes have been opened

In Response To: Re: My eyes have been opened (Bry)


: I dunno Stephen. You were just making a point before in this very topic about
: an additional particle effect in a previously established scene. :P

: In principle, I agree with what you're saying here, but you have to admit
: that you would also take things a whole lot further than those more
: obvious examples.

: There are definitely changes that happen that I'm not keen on, such as our
: new gunship model of Pelican being fitted with skids instead of wheeled
: landing gear (yay, let's make it a less flexible platform), or the added
: dependence on incredibly vulnerable and exposed vectoring nozzles (which,
: incidentally, they almost literally copy/pasted from a Harrier II).
:
: Come now, 343. Surely you didn't think I wouldn't notice a component so
: similar to a Harrier II's front, aka, cold nozzles. :P

: 'course, it's all explainable as a unique variant.

: I'm incredibly inconsistent on these things though.
: I definitely approve of the changes made to the Longsword and Pelican from
: Xbox gen to Xbox 360 gen, but only because they make perfectly logical and
: logistical sense.

: That's the crux of it. I don't mind changes when they make sense or look
: better to my own eye.
: I dislike them when they don't.
: It's a very subjective and personal issue on a one to one basis with no
: overbearing "Change = Bad" approach.

Agreed it's a personal thing, but it's sad that art staffers at 343i don't have the same qualities for consistency that folks like TD Spiral and Levi exhibit regularly. It's not their ability in question, it's their mindset.

Take the time up front, make it the way you want it, and KEEP to what you've established.
