I'd say do that to a more recent screenshot that doesn't have the crosshair all wtf over the place.

[ICEE]

somehow I don't think thats a crosshair.

[Heathen]

it is. It was a bug and it was already addressed.

Myth: That cross hair in the first person screenshot is way off to the left! It totally means <insert wild gameplay speculation here>!


Truth: Sorry folks, you won’t be perpetually leaning to the left nor will you be navigating multiple cross-hairs for various purposes. Truth be told, it’s just a good ole fashioned bug. Bug #15163 to be exact. Here’s the entry as found in our RAID database:



===== Opened by dg on 11/02/2009 01:33PM =====
SCREENSHOTS: Tiled screenshots using screenshot console command have crosshair in the wrong spot
Description:

Screenshots taken with the screenshot commands (tiled screenshots) all have the crosshair in the wrong place. It's either missing, or aligned too far to the left.

Note: attached screenshots correspond to commands below. chief.jpg is a screenshot using xbox chief.
Repro Steps:

Launch Reach
Start a campaign game
Create screenshot using _screenshot_ command
Note crosshair position for each shot

Actual:
Crosshair is off center for all tiled screenshots

Expected:
Crosshair is centered appropriately

Impact:
This prevents the community team from getting good screenshots.

Repro:
100%

I think Queen said it best when they said...

just Play The Game

[annihilation]

I wonder if it's going to be more gory.

Jcap and warlord, keep in mind Bungie has a pretty fluent\flowy idle animation for their weapons, so the actual origin may be pointing correct but with the idle it seems to point off.

[Heathen]

^ that is a good point I hadn't considered.

Just go scattering these images with the red lines all over bnet until bungie notices it and says "OOH"

I wonder if it's going to be more gory.

I hope so. It would certainly make the Covenant more vicious if they did to the civilians in Reach what they did to them on Sigma Octanus IV.
