SERIOUSLY?!

Call me crazy, but the explosion of a grenade COMPLETELY changing the course of a rocket doesn't seem like accurate physics at all. ESPECIALLY if said grenade blast doesn't kill someone if they are standing 4 goddamn feet away from it.

I know you are new to the english language and all, but still TRY to make an attempt to type it out properly.

"plz dont show ur up u self plz" I would if I EVEN KNEW WHAT THAT SAID. Hell's sake man..

Second, I own all three systems. How about you chuckles?

Everyone is OOOH AHHHing over these physics, and saying how AWESOME they are and how they are among the best in the industry.

OK. So the SAME GRENADE BLAST that forces a rocket being shot STRAIGHT DOWN to change it's course doesn't KILL THE GUY STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO IT?!

For the love of god people. Stop pitching tents in your pants over this crap. The physics in Halo 3 are a sham.

So what about a real soldier in a real war that trows a real grenade that explodes and deflects a real RPG? Your saying that isn't possible but they have a real tank that has counter measures that send out a controlled explosion to deflect RPGs. http://www.military.com/

Lighten up Waffles!

There's a fine line between realistic physics and fun physics.

Halo 3 has great fun physics... as demonstrated by that video.

Do you have a direct link that talks about that tank? After watching Myth Busters try to soften the impact of a falling dummy with a 500lb bomb...I'm skeptical that the shockwave of a blast can completely deflect ANYTHING with any kind of considerable mass.

Now don't leave out the other important information in my post to benefit your own argument. Like mainly the fact that the GUY STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO IT (I put it in all caps so you wouldn't miss it again) is still walking around after the grenade blast.

Halo 3 has some ridiculous crap in it, like people getting shot 3 times with a sniper rifle and smiling back at you afterwards, and standing on top of an exploding grenade and managing to kill you with a melee afterwards. stuff like that.

@8.5
I'm just providing a Counter argument to the statement made above:
"i've always said the physics in Halo were better than any other console game or computer game for that matter."

I never said they didn't have their moments. Honestly, I think this video is freaking awesome. But to say they are better than any other game?

Ok, I realize I'm standing in the middle of halo fanboy central. So I'll stop now.

I simply disagree that Halo 3's physics are worth the accolades they are receiving. That is all.

Have a nice day.

*EDIT*

Damn wasted my bubbles on lame crap. heh.

Anyway about this stryker. I don't see anything that explains how it uses controlled blasts to alter the course of an rpg. Just that it can take a direct hit like it's nobodys business. Maybe I missed it in that article.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

*edit*

OK found ERA. NEAT stuff. But still...How this is supposed to provide a counter argument to my claims that a blast can alter the course of rocket is a huge stretch. It basically just softens the blow, not change the course of anything.

8.9 - to WafflesID

Its called explosive reactive armour on tanks, its been about for several years. ( i think the russians invented it)

I saw the mythbusters episode too, it was good.
But the exploding cement mixer one was better.

Did this moron REALLY just base his opinion of Halo 3's graphics and frame rate off of a HIGHLY COMPRESSED tiny streaming video?

Wow...

Most definitely priceless. That is sooo funny. It makes it even better that the deflected rocket got a double kill.

Kind of funny that people are commenting on the quality of Halo 3 off an obviously compressed and tiny video. And I'm glad Halo 3 is not a simulation shooter, it adds to the fun and there are a lot of crazy moments to be caught on video.

lmao! That was funny as hell @waffles good for you man for standing your ground, your opinion is your own and your neither wrong nor right. Halo's physics make for great fun but their hardly realistic,a grenade would blow up the rocket, not re-direct it. but it's funny to laugh at and that's what matters when it comes to video games.

That was a good one. The saved film feature is one of the best features of this game. I'm sure many games will copy this idea soon enough.
