I'm really looking forward to this game, this isn't the first time they have talked about going back to the roots of Halo, they have even used the second mission in Halo CE as an example and that is one of the more memorable missions in the entire series.
Loves the "cleanness" of Halo Infinite. Agreed the latest Halo's felt abit to busy on screen. And that Halo Infinite takes more page out of the book of older games.
Well, you know it will be compared to other games. This is especially the case since it will be releasing around the time next gen games launch. I think the fact that it has X1 as its base will be relevant to that eventual discussion.
Halo 5 is dead? It's currently #32 in Australia, and if you include the fact that the player base is split between it and MCC (currently #33) and the fact it's currently a four year old game (the longest a Halo game has gone without a sequel) then I'd say it's in a pretty good place right now for the situation it's in. The fact that it's so high despite not having a content release in the last two or so years is a testament to how good it is.
Holy shit it's actually currently #31 lmao. How do you think that is good? It has less players than fucking Fallout 76, Battlefield 5, and Smite for Gods sake. That is not an achievement when Halo should be top 10 at the very least, even after years of its release.
No matter what kind of scaling they do, there's no way it being on a 1tflop machine with weak CPUs doesn't hold the game back. Like you can scale down graphical fidelity and lower resolution and fps but the advancements in AI, physics, the number of people on screen etc would all be held back by a weak Xbox One.
You really have no idea how good that number is huh? In 07, twitter didn't exist, Reddit wasn't huge and games didn't need to stay relevant. Didn't need to constantly be updating.
They expect it to be a generational leap, which it will not be. It will improve performance. Games will largely look the same though.
All the games you just listed are either recent releases or have had content releases within the last few months. You're comparing a 4 year old game with no content for the last 2-3 and a game that is a direct competitor on the market (Halo vs Halo). I would say Halo 5 is far from dead.
But imagine if the game has an online only tag, the outrage would be BIG.
lol , Halo 5 is renowned for its brilliant multi.
I didnt say I think this. Just that it will forever come up no matter how good the looks and plays.
Yes the MP is definitely amazing, that's why the competitive scene is thriving, right?
Yes, people seem not understand that though.
We are already seen what next gen consoles will do in terms of skin shading/lighting /reflections and it definitely isn't small. Devs will never choose performance for the launch of a next gen consoles over more detail.
Not from what I'm hearing from promotional material and interviews re: PS5 wired article
