Space combat in Halo Reach,revealed just now,discuss.


I think it will be just like the one in Star Wars Battlefront,including the dodge movements. -it was part of the campaign mode though-

[HEADING=2]My source was the live demo that I watched online minutes ago[/HEADING]

After doing some Google and youtube i still have no idea what your talking about.

They announced there would be Naval Battles? or are we talking something in the vain of Shattered Horizon?

If thats the Case how are the UNSC meant to even meant to have any impact at all against Alien Naval power unless they pack serious numbers. I guess if anything The UNSC would specialise in numbers and Boarding while the Covenaunt excell in ships and weaponry.

EDIT: you added an extra sentance, huh.

Well if they did it in a similar vain for the love of god make the ships more...Realistic..not the small ships, i mean the Capital ships, i want more rooms, more areas to board into, more guns to man, tight corridors to fight through, Captains nests to capture, that kinda thing, i felt the space combat was good, but the boarding in that game was lacking.

from what was showed in the demo it looks epic. Im really exited the entire demo gave me goose bumps. this is only because Im a huge halo fan if you never liked halo before I can't see you liking this one. for me the demo looked like it packed all the best parts of the halo franchise into 5 min.

I seriously doubt you can board ships in reach.They didn't show more then a few seconds of space battle,before cutting away.

From what I've seen it looks awesome but I doubt it would be like Battlefront.

Looks kind of like a scripted route but you can move around the screen.

Still it was jaw dropping awesome! I cant wait for it!

I wouldn't lose hope just yet.

The space battle footage shown was very brief and I'm just speculating here.

It could happen, well just have to see what happens when its released.

I watched this on TV a bit ago, so anyone who is still thinking Purple Sky is making it up can go to gametrailers.com/E3 and find it (assuming I caught the website correctly. Really small text at the bottom).

Not sure how I feel about space combat. I seem to recall Master Chief thinking in a book, "Spartans always win on the ground." Bonus points for trying something different, but it looks a bit odd.

If you watch the new trailer you see that the combat is in HUGE open spaces with battle cruisers flying every which way so the multiplayer potential is great
