Don't think you can download unless ODST is running.
I think the initial download has to start from within ODST, but after that I just used background, could also see it in my active transfers when I switched the console on.

 

Btw where are you guys getting the callouts from? I'm trying to memorize them off the HUD... I'm still like invis hammer in the... building! The gray one! :P

Those HUD callouts are good but not perfect to be honest... there'll be like atleast 3 sub-callouts for that one callout that is shown on the HUD..

Right now im not even trying to memorize any callouts... its taking a toll on me getting used to Reach mp... i just keep blabbering out random sh*t which i think is very understandable to anyone who has played a couple matches on the map... :fear:

You can use the call out names from the radar but truth be told that will take some getting used to. Most people are just using stuff like "on my X" or the big weapon spawns (rocket launcher, Hammer etc).

Definitely - it looks great up close. I also think the netcode has had an improvement. I played one round and it was mostly green - I did see one yellow bar. Overall the hit detection was nice. I did notice one instance of clipping.

Seriously? You all seriously think that the graphics are an improvement over H3?

 

Sword base is hard to tell but Powerhouse is a very nice looking map. And honestly the armor and weapon detail is better than any other game I have seen. Plus the lighting is excellent. Overlook and Boneyard are just AMAZING looking maps. And Bungie have better skyboxes than any other developer out there.

 

Check out theater mode and you can see the insane amount of detail there is on your armor or weapon.

Here is a random screenshot from my fileshare. Its a little blurry cause I caught it in motion but I honestly cant think of a game that has better armor/weapon detailing than that.

I am playing on a 19 inch LCD moniter (1440 X 900 ) and wasn't that impressed by the graphics. Except for the grain-filter, did not notice anything new in the graphics department. Infact, I saw quite a bit of texture pop-in in the Armory while going through the armor options.

 

@Aft: Character models do look great but the environments looked a bit washed-out. I felt the same for ODST too (which I started playing a couple of weeks back). A bit underwhelming for me. Maybe I need to tune my settings a bit and see if something is going wrong somewhere.
