Halo: The Master Chief Collection PC performance thread
- Thread starter GrrImAFridge
- Start date
I wish that Nvidia Freestyle would work with the Windows Store version of MCC :'( I would really like to do some color correction and activate the sharpening filter.
So the game runs when i select the anti cheat disabled mode, but when i try to play the normal version it just comes up saying:
Couldnt start game Launch Error 10022.
MCC0WIN64-SHIPPING-WINSTORE.EXE Application Error.
Also It says Unexpected error (0xc0030004)
It was working fine this morning

Wow something is definitely busted in my setup.
This is with the ingame 60fps cap + VSync enabled. Every time I move the mouse the framerate just dies, even in menus.
I'm running a 144Hz monitor w/ GSync, is anyone else having this bad a reaction?
GTX2080ti and a 6700k running at 4k.

Everything seems fine for me in terms of performance but the issues with the game audio are definitely real and headache-inducing. I really hope this gets fixed.

Figured it out.
I have a program called Bins that I use to combine windows taskbar shortcuts. On one of my exits of the game I saw a little error window of the Anti-Cheat detecting, and not liking it. Must be something about how it hooks into windows that doesn't play nicely?
Turning it off got me a beautiful flat 16.6ms line.
there are some things in GameUserSettings.ini but it's your bog standard UE4 cvars, I haven't tried playing around with them
Code:
[ScalabilityGroups]
sg.ResolutionQuality=100.000000
sg.ViewDistanceQuality=3
sg.AntiAliasingQuality=3
sg.ShadowQuality=3
sg.PostProcessQuality=3
sg.TextureQuality=3
sg.EffectsQuality=3
sg.FoliageQuality=3
DSR works fine here (Steam version).
btw everyone I have a 1660 and my GPU usage is about 60% at 4K with 60fps locked, with added sharpening and forced aniso 16x (the games aniso seems somewhat weak). I mean your choice but like, if you've got a 1070 or better might as well use DSR and downsample from 5k if you have a 60hz display. :)
When I tried the first time the colors were all jacked up. What I tried today was changing it from 422 back to RGB and for some reason it works fine now

Are you overclocking?
I have also notices the mixing being pretty poor. The guns don't have much punch. It's very flat sounding.
The main menus are done in UE4, so they wouldn't affect anything ingame.
There's an 'enhanced' mode which basically just pushes out LOD's from the original version, but no. Other than forcing aniso though, there's really not much point - the game is extremely un-demanding and there are no obvious effects like chromatic aberration or motion blur that you might want to turn off. I mean a 1060 can easily play this game at 4k/60, sometimes graphics options are just superfluous.
No HDR on PC is a little strange, have they mentioned if they're adding it in at a later date?
Yes but it wasn't the OC (it wasn't even boosting, GPU frequency was only like 1300).
It was a program I had running that messes with my taskbar icons that the Anti-cheat didn't like. As soon as I turned it off it cleared up. It must be something with how it hooks into the windows process that makes it throw a fit.

So does anyone have any tips for how to even run this thing? Game Pass version on PC? I boot up my computer and it loads to the menu, I get into the main menu and try to go to the settings and it just freezes. I had to force close again... tried launching again and yet again it's just freezing at the initial spinning loading screen. Is there some kind of conflict possibly? Anything I should be looking out for?
Idk. I had issues with the menus too. I found that spending more than like 15-20 seconds in menus would lead to a crash soon after. Game has lots of issues. Spend as little time changing settings as possible.
Launch the game from the start menu or Xbox companion app.
Hm so last night, it did freeze on the menu I alt+tabbed like 4 times and suddenly it was good.
Nvidia control panel I thought?
I've had mine doing 5k -> 1440p downsampling. Worked fine for me.
Probably not going to be a priority any time soon. The userbase that cares about it for a game this old is probably way too small and they have to get it out of the gate first.
Audio Issues: Players have reported various issues regarding game audio not sounding as expected (muffled, inconsistent volume, low quality, etc.). This is a known issue present at launch and the team is working to resolve this. Unfortunately, it is not a quick fix and is one that will require quite a bit of work and time to resolve. The team is already working on it and will share an update when more progress and details are available.
Yea, I'm out. See you guys next year I guess. 343i the same as they always were. Good efforts, but able to fuck up the most basic of things.
I don't understand how the sound quality got past QA. I'm out too until it gets fixed - it's way too distracting.
Yikes, not a quick fix? Incredible that it made it to a release state given how bloody terrible it sounds. Hollow, muted, tinny, cracking as well.
Embarrassing, especially given the legacy of this collection.
I really should have held off on purchase.
So the game launches and I get the splash screen and the intros... and it keeps sending me to the windows store to install it again. I downloaded all 21 gb, then I installed reach, but then it keeps asking me to install it every time I launch...
OP
OP
Yeah, I assume that's because Reach is currently the only game available, so the entire collection is there for those who want to pre-order the whole thing while those who may have purchased or played the X1 version in the past have the option of buying Reach individually. I imagine Microsoft will switch to a Complete the Set bundle once the selection has widened, although this really should be the case already so that the situation of someone who purchased Reach on its own but now wants to pre-order the rest of the games is properly accounted for.

I've tried going over 4K but it seems to screw up the User Interface.
Cross-posting this from the Reach OT:
Hope this seemingly random set of actions will also fix it for someone else.
I think it was uninstalling and reinstalling the Reach package that did it, if you want to simplify the process.
Edit: hearing from Klobrille that the latest update to the Xbox app fixed it for them.

I must just have really good headphones because I'm finding this audio issue problem to be a tad overstated. Yes it's muffled but it's certainly not game breaking, at least for me.
I imagine it would be the opposite, you'd have to have pretty cheap headphones for the audio in this game to not stand out as terrible.
Yeah, it is really obvious to hear the problem with the guns I think. Environmental audio? A bit less obvious.
Anyone played this game with a surround sound system instead of just headphones? Is it still just as bad?
I'm not back from vacation for a week so I cant test it.

Gamepass version.
Holy hell, I know this was made with gamepad in mind but this feels and plays ancient! I could only last for a couple of minutes.
I also noted the poor audio quality (headphones). As for launching had to launch a different exe in the start menu as pression play in the xbox beta app didn't do a damn thing.

I've completed the game on a 5.1 system and it's honestly one of the worst audio mixing i've heard in recent memory.
For an Nvidia card? The usual process did the trick for me. Open Nvidia control panel, manage 3D settings, global settings, pick DSR factors.
But I think I read it wasn't working well for some people.

Same. The gameplay does not translate very well to Mouse Keyboard in my opnion, unlike Destiny.
Also noticed the strange audio mix and the stutter, and the v-sync option does not work for me.
Uninstalled, will wait for Halo 4.
Guns and voices
I had some marines talking right next to me that were almost silent. Guns being fired sound like they are being fired way above the source they should have.
But the Spartans were all perfect sounding and with correct positional cues.
Weirdness all around
Yeah the audio isn't great but during Campaign playing with 3 others we're talking while playing the whole time anyway, so it isn't noticable at all really. The cutscenes don't seem to be effected, they sound pretty good to me and pretty much exactly how I remember them.
What a misinformed post. Do you seriously think that they have not done their due diligence? Microsoft had their own anti-cheat teams that worked on FH4, for example. And yet still they decided to go with EAC, as well as a tons of other biggest games out there right now. Sure probably because EAC is the shittiest. Makes a ton of sense.
