this game is gonna suck balls, I'll see you all at release to lol at it together. I refuse to fall for fake 343i hype like every single time, they suck and will suck again
Brutes still look like trash.
This is an Xbox One game, people still expecting amazing graphics are in for a dissapointment.
Hopefully, the gameplay is good.
They can reach and surpass those trailers if they make a Halo exclusive for the Series X.
This is just an Xbox One game souped up for Series X/PC.
Feel free to find a single thread or comment where I said even once that halo infinite would blow anybody away, or hype it up at all. You have zero idea what you are talking about.Erm maybe when clowns like you are shouting about 12tf monsters that eat planets for breakfast hype up stuff. How many times did we hear how hr infinite reveal would blow us away.
How short peoples memories are, to change their narrative.
No lies detected.
Xbox fans should demand more from Phil. It's not wrong to criticize. It's for Xbox to be better. But what happens is that you're always giving him a pass.
Dats a hell of a reach!!!Reach looks as good if not better![]()
The game looks good & the improvements are clear, but it will not be a next-gen showpiece. It doesn't even matter, it has to be about gameplay first and at the very least it's quite nice to see their dedication to having a separate team do justice with the PC version. Never been a Halo fan but I look forward to giving a go, thankfully I have gamepass so I don't have to wonder about spending $70.
Halo 5 did look really good on X1X.This is something I've been saying in regards to this game. Halo 5 looked really good on X1X, I don't know why people don't like it, I am not Halo fan and enjoyed it a lot in co-op with my buddy.
This could be true. We'll see. I already don't like the materials in those screenshots. They look like Gears/DOOM metal which is completely wrong. I hope they go back and revisit their material shaders.
Game looks so bad to me...
them trees... gawd damn. Everything looks bad. The grass.. the rocks.. the lighting... everything.
feel like we are gonna be waiting forever to get a Series X showpiece. This is decidedly last gen looking.
It is a open world game isn't it?
But those graphics...

Still doesn't look like great visually at all
Man, it just doesn't look good :/
They should just scrap it all and use idtech
This game looks bad.
Well, Halo Infinite is targeting "up to 4K", so it will likely be 4K DSR like Halo 5 was on Xbox One X, which also ran at 60 FPS. Given that the XSX is double the speed of the One X, not counting the 25% IPC improvement, I think it's reasonable for people to expect a decent bump in visual fidelity. On the other hand, maybe it's the art style that's putting people off the game, since they seem to be intentionally going for less detailed assets to reduce the amount of visual clutter.A 60fps game per se IS demanding. On Xbox original and 360, Halo was always (if there were exceptions correct me) a 30fps game. That framerate gave enough render time for the original Xbox to display all those bump mapped textures (that was revolutionary and I was floored seeing how the textures interacted with Chief's flashlight) and light sources. The 30fps did the same for the 360 which brought those beautiful water shaders, HDR-like lighting and really detailed textures. Halo on original Xbox and 360 would look very different if the devs targeted 60fps.
Dunno, not sure it's all that important anyway. Forza Horizon is going to look insane, for sure, I mean 4 already looks so god damn good. Not sure what they'll improve on besides LOD management but I'm here for it even if it's just a new location. FH4 is just gorgeous.When or what is their next gen showpiece? That's what irks me. My money will be on yet another Forza Horizon in the autumn , Starfield maybe.
Not just that it's a multiplayer focus game with forge elements and I can't even begin to imagine what sort of custom game options there are, and it has to run on a wide variety of device graphical strengths. I can't think of a game that looks better than this and does all those thingsI don't care about the graphics at this point, it makes sense why it looks like this given the 60fps target, scale of the game and it also having to run on the Xbox One, so just make the gameplay as good as the original 3 games were and I'll be happy.
I never quite understood all the hate and negativity towards Infinite's graphics.
The current gen consoles (PS5 and Series) aren't true 4K 60 machines. Their optimal resolution for displaying next gen assets (geometry, texture and effects) is around 1440p.
2160p native IS HARD ON THESE MACHINES and limits them greatly.
A 60fps game per se IS demanding. On Xbox original and 360, Halo was always (if there were exceptions correct me) a 30fps game. That framerate gave enough render time for the original Xbox to display all those bump mapped textures (that was revolutionary and I was floored seeing how the textures interacted with Chief's flashlight) and light sources. The 30fps did the same for the 360 which brought those beautiful water shaders, HDR-like lighting and really detailed textures. Halo on original Xbox and 360 would look very different if the devs targeted 60fps.
In Infinite's case the devs are targeting 4K 60 and the visuals will suffer for it. But even so I can see the world is really large, the models have dense geometry and the textures, when properly lit, are really detailed (the infamous last year trailer displayed what appeared to be displacement/parallax mapping on the ground) and the performance was a rock solid 60fps.
I think that when judging Infinite's graphics we should bear in mind that the developers have chosen a resolution and render time that is outside the current gen's consoles comfort zone performance wise and there will be a graphical penalty for that.
They better nail the multiplayer gameplay. As of now Stalker 2 will probably be the graphical showcase.
This could be true. We'll see. I already don't like the materials in those screenshots. They look like Gears/DOOM metal which is completely wrong. I hope they go back and revisit their material shaders.
I still don't see the appeal of a monitor that wide.
Unless you're using like some kind of a multi monitor set up with different applications on different screens then it's a bit too much.
Doesn't need to be a huge difference, just needed polish and cleaner character design.I think people expecting a huge difference in graphics from the Craig Video are going to be disappointed.
I could be wrong.
Ironically killzone was quickly dropped by many including any kind of esport competitive scene in favor of the bigger shooters like CoD and Battlefield 4 because despite its gorgeous graphics it lacked, oh what was it: GAMEPLAYA lot of you guys saying it doesn't matter about the graphics it's all about the gameplay and basically giving MS a pass for spending years and this is what they have to show for it need to change tune, if I was in charge I would've put every resource at my disposal to churn out a fucking visual spectacular playable on Xbox series only and went all out and put Halo back on the pedastal it deserves, this would've generated enormous hype for the machine and it's capabilities and got people talking, hell I would've hired Zack Snyder to cut a fucking trailer for it... And don't give me shit about Zack, the man can cut a fucking trailer, this is what MS should've done in my eyes and then sub the game out to another team to make it playable on the og Xboxes.
I remember when Sony first showed off Killzone Shadow fall and this place went nuts as did every other website as we where finally looking at proper next generation visuals and it was that game that convinced me to jump ship, that and MS utter balls-up tech wise and reveal wise. So when it came out that MS was coming out swinging with better hardware it needed that WOW game, not some questionable CGI/cutscene bollocks but it needed that Halo 3 reveal cause as much as we all love gameplay over visuals, it's visuals that gets the internet talking and gets it buzzing and Halo should've been on fucking fire...
Not only that, but there is still so much we don't know about the game. It's true we have seen some images and some like them and some don't, but when thinking about the entire game as a whole we've seen diddly squat so far. At least we know that at E3 they are going to do a full reveal on everything. I don't think they an afford to be like, "well we're gonna push back even further." And totally agree about the gameplay has to be good or better graphics wouldn't matter in the end.Ironically killzone was quickly dropped by many including any kind of esport competitive scene in favor of the bigger shooters like CoD and Battlefield 4 because despite its gorgeous graphics it lacked, oh what was it: GAMEPLAY
it played like another run-of-mill FPS with a linear campaign (and a meh story which is a shame because killzone 2-3 had really good campaigns) and the multiplayer took away some of the uniqueness of killzone 3 by making it more of a CoD clone.
I mean if we really want to talk graphics or gameplay let's look at Nintendo. They've juggernaut'ed their way to the top consecutively for more than two years now and their console is a fucking potato with a screen on it.
I'm not gonna lie, would I prefer better graphics in halo? Yes. But let's not kid ourselves, the inside of the book is more important than the cover.
also 343i doesn't need to do much to get people to talk about halo. They could confirm a BR mode for the game and the internet would explode.
Such a bizarre take. How do you know idtech is even remotely equipped right now to handle whatever Halo Infinite is set to be on release and over the next 5-10 years without having a full understanding of what was done with the game engine and what their plans for the game are? I'm sure it can perhaps be made to be ready, but my assumption is it is not, which is why they built their a new engine around their desired ambitions and goals.They should just scrap it all and use idtech
Good news for us CRT owners!
"You can also run the game in 4:3..."

I don't think you're getting what I'm trying to say lad, obviously gameplay will always trump graphics, but I'm talking about their marquee game, the one to get everyone talking about the series X and how do we get people talking about a console, you blow their minds with visuals first and halo did the complete oppositeIronically killzone was quickly dropped by many including any kind of esport competitive scene in favor of the bigger shooters like CoD and Battlefield 4 because despite its gorgeous graphics it lacked, oh what was it: GAMEPLAY

You are agreeing with console fanboys, you need to think for yourself instead of following the moron parade.This game will never come out.

I don't know how, but I hadn't heard of this game until last week. It's on my list to check out for sure now.I think Starfield will surprise people.
Sound like Klobrille alright. I've never seen anyone dedicate so much of their time and energy toward doing PR for a massive multinational corporation...He is comparing 2 completely different scenes...what a dumbass.
This game will never come out.

You interpreted my post wrong, so I'll fully explain it out to you like a villain from an anime explaining his powers.You are agreeing with console fanboys, you need to think for yourself instead of following the moron parade.
I just wish they dropped the Xbox One versions. Maybe just the multiplayer will be on Xbox One. Regardless I'm just not hyped at all for a new Halo game. I trust Joe Staten, but he came in way too late. Delay it, cancel it, I just don't care like I used to.Will get a release date at E3 of next March but dont expect it then either.
Pure guesses btw![]()
Those are PC screens and H5 on X1X still looks better...
