crazy how the youtube comments are so different compared to this thread lol they are super impressed there and super happy with the game. weird.
 
Why do the guns sound so weak and all the enemies die so easily, I mean, maybe they're playing on easy but I loved Halo because you had to actually play mind games with the AI, it took more shots than this to kill them

I didn’t notice the pop in, the stream was too shit 😂

Graphically, it looks like Halo for me. The classic visual style with some nice particle effects. Gonna have to watch the 4K video.

I do hope they fix any pop in issues though. No excuses on the XSX.
Watch the background when he goes up the elevator, or when they close the world-map menu.

So Ray tracing comes after launch? Wtf?

What have these guys been doing since Halo 5? I know I have been shitting on MS after that conference and I still dont think they showed anything compelling to buy their new machine or even show it off.

But damn did I want them to show something with Halo that would blow me away, loved the series and I remember that Halo 3 E3 trailer ..... was fire.


343 are no Bungie, that simple.

4K version looks very clean image quality wise, but there are quite a few noticeable graphical glitches from noticeable LoD changes to pop-in/pop-out of grass and cloud.

The important thing though was the scale of the areas. Remind me of why I loved Halo in the first place because it was one of the first shooters to have that.

and check out this view! im getting stoked thinking about how they are going to let us play around in the world. will we get access to a ship? be able to fly anywhere? or just in certain areas? how open will the world be? itd be dope if they really opened it up and let us go nuts. still, great looking game i think

This is anti-hype, damn. I know I'm not a Halo fan but that just looks meh.

The gameplay looked solid, but the graphics looked like plastic. Maybe the engine they're using is too old. I warned people about Halo: Infinite. 343 is a mediocre studio, always has been,

I'm pretty sure it was on Normal if you look during one of the Map scenes you will see the Shield with just one Sword across it.

i see halo 3 at every level here (with the bad visually)
can be a good thing in the end if the gameplay / content is at this level.

IMO Halo Infitite looks dated because the color pallet and artstyle doesn't work well with modern rendering techniques (namely photogrammatry). So its still using last gen PBR techniques. That said if it is 4k 144 that would still be impressive. Also it is obviously being held back by the weaker MS machines.

And people said Hellblade 2 was ingame bla bla bla. While i do not believe Hellblade 2 will look that bad compared to Halo Infinite, but Hellblade was clearly pre-rendered and not realtime in-game.

Show me a 4k60 fps open world game which looks better.

Destiny 2, Star Citizen...

Waiting for someone to show me an open world 4K 60fps console game that looks better.

I think it would have been smarter to make the multiplayer 60 fps and the story 30 fps. I'm not sure how many people value 60fps open world. Also with the new perf target you can get materials like subsurface scattering on the character models.

the 4k60 upload is a lot better than what it looked like streamed. Also i don't think Halo was ever intended to look realistic. This looks 10x better than halo5. They should definitely fix the gun sounds and feel like there isn't enough going on the screen, kind of looks empty.

I don't like 30fps and neither does 343. 1440p 60fps minimum for me to be impressed.

It really looks like "Halo", both gameplay and artstyle-wise. I like it a lot.

Call me crazy, but I think 30 fps would actually look nicer. Other than that, it looks amazing.

God I can't help but wonder if the Xbox One did more damage or if it was targeting 4K 60fps that resulted in such an ugly game.

I've played every Halo since Halo 2 at launch and have never stopped playing them. As a huge fan, this is shocking and I don't know what the fuck is going on at Xbox anymore.
