Made a higher quality comparison pic

Reminds me of those home console vs Switch comparisons like Immortals or Doom.

That looks gorgeous, but I also never had any problem with the reveal last summer. 🤷🏻‍♂️

im just glad that now textures aren't so invisible anymore

they were always there but just a combination of things just made everything look so muddy

Yeah, these look way better and the different times of day, amazing.
It's so much better without those pillars which are probably still there, hopefully better when they see them again but man, that pure Halo look is awesome.

If that's indicative, it's one of the better TOD systems I've seen in a game for sure. Wow.

It looks damn impressive. It's one thing to have a time of day system, but it's another thing entirely to convey that through proper lighting such that objects/terrain change in mood and tone.

I think one of the reasons the pillars looked so bad was be lighting just wasn't right.

Holy shit those screenshots look fucking incredible. I thought that the gameplay demo looked pretty good in motion (those promotional screenshots though... holy shit were those rough) but holy shit these new screenshots look a solid several steps above what was shown in July.

The lighting just looks so much better, and it really allows the texture quality to really shine through as well

Looks better than before, but the LOD has everything more than 30 metres away looking like an oil painting

Where's the XSX screenshots. Those are from PC, right?

Coming

That night time shot reminds of the bit in Return of the Jedi when Luke hands himself into Vader, looks so sweet.

Screenshots look much better.

No idea how this game will ultimately turn out but Joe Statens little piece really shows that he understands Halo.

It's the first time I've heard anyone at 343 sound like they get it. Exciting times.

The Milky Way
Do we know if there will be other environments (snow, desert, jungle, etc) or does the entire game share the same environment shown in these pictures?
There will definitely be hugely varied environments like every Halo game but they're focusing on this first section of the game as it's what we saw last year, so we can see how it has improved.

Im so pumped people are seeing some new stuff from us today!! 🥰 cant wait for you guys to play the game.

The time of day screenshots are extremely impressive. And I love hearing how the team is looking to build and expand on the sense of openness and adventure that Halo: CE offered.

"Legacy" and "Simplicity" is what I've wanted since Halo 4. I'm so happy with the visual designs in Infinite. Its like too good to be true.

Exactly. I hated the art direction for Halo 4 and 5.

Love what I'm seeing with Infinite, both in terms of art and gameplay options.

Fingers crossed on the multiplayer.

This is snipped at full res, although you might need to open in a new tab to see it at the exact resolution:

Reminds me of the oil effects you can achieve from injectors. Why would you take screenshots at 3840 x 2160 without anti-aliasing? If anyone opens it full size it just makes everything look terrible

Wow it looks so good! Just imagine seeing it in motion at a smooth clean 60fps. Love the changes to the HUD. And story details snuck in! This could be the most hyped I've been for a Halo since 2 or 3.
