Pardon Our Dust.

Clearly, the first is your personal opinion, and as for being not being realistic, clearly people more experienced than you do think it's realistic enough, nor do we care if a small detail like that is deemed "realistic".

I'm looking at my TV screen right now and I can see there's more space than what you have on your model. Also, quit bringing out the "Bungie did it so they are always correct whatever they say goes" because they have made several flaws in their stuff before.

seriously guys?
Arguing about the realism of shoulders you will never EVER see in game?
Funny stuff.

I was more worried about model clipping than realism when I said there was no room to shoulder the weapon...=| I don't mind the look at all, I was thinking practically. In my opinion, the only two things that detract currently are the mouth of the helmet and the leg bands.

? You'll see them in game when you die, when you drive a warthog or ghost... when you get in a tank or banshee... in the cutscenes...

Or am I missing something here?

I think people care more about killing the enemies instead of checking themselves out for small, so called mistakes made.

Well, I cringed in SPv1 in every cutscene because the Chief was terrible. No offence to you CMT, it was still a great mod, but the feel of the game was ruined by the biped, especially considering a lot of them were also NPCs in the game.

Yes but then why does halo have gravity or any other kind of realistic elements? Eliminating it all because some of it is eliminated is a stupid idea. It doesn't have to be completely realistic, but when everyone says the shoulders don't make sense (not to mention look bad), ignoring it is idiotic.

Are you seriously going to compare having GRAVITY to having unrealistic shoulder plates? Really? Your claims are ridiculous and devalue your point.

It wasn't that point I was refuting. Rentafence said he likes games that are unrealistic. So why play one with any realism at all? If what I'm doing here seems wrong and what he really meant to say was that he enjoys games that have elements of realism in them, but aren't totally realistic, then that is also the type of game I like to play. All I'm saying is, if you can help it, don't willingly pick the unrealistic path just because bungie did.

To be honest, it looks like you didn't read any of my posts. Before making another like that, I suggest you do so.

[ICEE]

What you are doing is taking an obvious point and over-exaggerating it to a ridiculous (though theoretically possible) end that is clearly not what he meant. I did read your posts, and the opinion you are trying to get across is clearly not worth the amount of effort you have put fourth to do so. I think the rule should be this: Make your point, supply your evidence and drop it. If people reject your opinion, so be it. At that point it is not possible, nor is it worth trying to get them to change their mind. That being said, I am going to take my own advice.

Can you not just resize the shoulder pads? Make them shorter than they are now. So they will cover only part of the shoulder? It will keep him protected while he will be able to shoulder his weapons.
