The price of speed
Posted By: Flawless Cowboy	Date: 11/17/01 4:18 p.m.
In Response To: Some Major Problems with Saving (Pfhor) : After playing Halo a bit, I learned that Bungie didn't do an adequate enough : job with the saving system, for example- We were unable to add these features because we wanted the saving to be instantaneous. If you look at most console games saving takes an extremely long time, but in Halo it is so fast you don't even notice it, and that is because of the hard drive. Unfortunately, to allow you to manipulate saves in all the ways you wanted, it would have slowed the save system to a crawl, breaking the immersion and slowing down the game, so we had to compromise. -Flawless Cowboy
