343 Industries kertoi, miten päivän ja yön vaihtelu toimii Halo Infinitessa

Tulossa oleva Halo Infinite ei ole tyystin avoin maailmaltaan, mutta kuitenkin se kaikkein avoin Halo tähän asti. Pelaamiseen vaikuttavat niin sää kuin vuorokaudenaikakin. 343 Industriesin Justin Dinges ja John Mulkey selvensivät asiaa uudella videolla, ja säätila todellakin vaikuttaa pelaamiseen eri tavoin.

"Part of our job on the art team and the graphics team was to make the ring feel alive, and being a part of a big ecosystem, and a big part of that is weather, at least on our planet, and we want to emulate that on the ring. So we've definetly added things like a really cool wind system, which is not just visual but also audio. There's also a fog system. We didn't go down the road of having rain storms, thunderstorms and snow storms, and things like that."

Vuorokaudenaika vaikuttaa muun muassa siihen, nukkuvatko gruntit vartiossa.

"So when you're moving through the world in the darker periods, yoiu're gonna end up seeing more patrols of Phantoms with searchlights, which is pretty cool. You'll probably run into more opportunities where grunts are sleeping on the job. We've also worked on just having things that would look cool in dark spaces, so we're going with things that have more emisives on them. So you're going to run into more Shield Jackals for instance, that eminate light."
