I love how the HUD is curved to the curve of the visor.

note: why did they change the color of the hud? for years it has been blue and not its more of a greenish color. could the HUD change corresponding to what color of spartan?

and where are the elites?

I'd say it's safe to assume they won't be including the elites in multiplayer. Not surprising really, few people actually played as them. I think.

I wouldn't be saying that at all...
I believe its more because they have not showed or want to show any fully ready rendered elites... Probably want their extremely evil menacing, dribbling faces with their big teeth to remain a surprise until later.

They'll be like ROAR! and hopefully not look as playful as Halo 2's (Well, the arbiter did at least, he's a plush toy in shiny armour)

I considered that, but in my opinion I don't think the elites will feature in MP. But of course that's just my opinion.

Impressive distortion

when you distortion it reminded me of the distortion ball that turk made....i seem to recall him talking about making it deflect bullets or something at one time.....conincedence?

Please don't quote pictures.

They already confirmed that they're in at this point when they stated that they're balanced now as far as the head location, to give people incentive to play as Spartan or Elite, equally.

Maybe they just aren't done making them look good. Remember they didn't even show the elite's legs sticking out of the banshees in the Announcement Trailer because they wanted their look to remain secret.

It does look good, but it has nothing to do with Halo 3. >_>

Halo - SciFi

It might just be my stupid opinion...but maybe the hud looks a different color cuz of a weird angle or lighting in the room?

Anyone else noticed that the HUD is green for much of the footage?
LoL Yeah. I tried a lot of things - one of Which was a greensish tint to help it stand out from the sky. After trying it like that for a few weeks I decided to go back to blue. It just didn't feel like Halo anymore.

I really like having the shield meter at the top of the screen again. It feels good having it above the reticule where all the action is happening. With widescreen TVs Having the shield meter so far off in the periphery made it harder to notice...Plus it doesn't look dorky by itself in games with the motion trakcer disabled. I hope y'all like the change.

Then it was a stupid opinion...

Thanks for pointin' that out. So was that an option or did he mean like...just testing it out?

2.4MBs for an image file posted on a forum? How reasonable.
