Wasn't compairing Halo or Destiny to either of those. Read more carefully next time.

60fps vs 30fps is not an automatic win in graphical fidelity. Which was my point.

It's not, but damn if it doesn't look weird/good. I can't stop watching that H2A campaign footage. Everything is so buttery smooth. I think it'll make such a huge difference. I honestly hope above all else 60FPS is targeted how for Halo 5.

I'm someone who doesn't really care. I mean I played the hell out all the games and 3, Reach and 4 would even do below 30, but I'd love if they targeted that for H5.

Already confirmed

 

[derFeef]

Looks shiny!

 

[JimiNutz]

I still can't believe they aren't doing a Halo themed Xbox One bundle for this game.
I'm so hyped that I would definitely buy another Xbox One.

Me too, would look good next to my Reach 360.

 

[Mayyhem]

I almost still can't believe this game is even a "thing" that is happenining. It won't hit me till I have it.

Some Halo 4 Campaign Composer Level in the video. Some cool achievement stuff going on in this package.

Just wow.

 

[z2114422]

Same here.
That shiny silver Reach 360!!!

Will definitely buy MCC bundle if there is one.

 

[FrakkinFordy]

I'd really like some HQ footage that isn't on Youtube or IGNs player. Always leaves me hugely underwhelmed.....I don't want to be underwhelmed, it's Halo, I want to be blown away. Is/does Gamersyde going to get these videos/have them already?

 

[Murdoch]

The definition of a system seller.

It pulled me into its moist mandible like snare.

Unless something really out of the ordinary happens, there is absolutely no chance MS will ever send us anything like that.

 

[strata8]

So MCC is sitting at #12 on Amazon and we're still a month away from release. Outselling both COD and GTAV.

 

[HiiiLife]

I can't believe I'm considering picking up the white X1 for this. If I ever do get an X1 it'll be strictly exclusives since I have a PS4. But with the talks of the Ryse developers saying they wouldn't mind coming to Sony, it'll bug the OCD in me to have a game I thought WAS a micro exclusive. But I'm off topic.

The fact that I'm considering dropping 400 for a game I played over 10 years ago speaks for itself. Damn I love this franchise. But the money I use on video games... Dat love/hate relarionship. Ughhhh. Lol.

 

[Skele7on]

dying, absolutely, dying.

this game is like my GOAT.

 

[T.O.P]

I feel like I am ripping 343 off by only giving them 60 dollars.

This lol

 

[Frog-fu]

Fucking beautiful. Day one.

 

[Raide]

Very impressive amount of content. Looking forward to jumping in when it launches.

 

[Dabanton]

When MS announced this I was pretty lukewarm,my Halo love had faded over the years.

But seeing snippets of levels and hearing the music has reignited my love of it. It's been so long since I've played a Halo game that it will be like a new experience for me.

Cannot wait.

 

[Leyasu]

A week booked off of work for this!

But what excites me the most is the mouthwatering thought of finally playing big lag battle on dedicated servers. With multiplayer on azure, everything else is gravy!

But with all this goodness on the horizon, I am just a little bit scared that my hopes will be dashed if we cant choose the datacenter where we play.

I keep getting the feeling that in order to keep the playlists full, and to matchmake by rank, they will keep everyone on the same datacenter..... In the US

And in a flash the middle finger to everyone not in north america. And a continuation of the last 10yrs of on-line halo horrors.

Please dont be so.

Well MS do have loads of datacenters around. Not sure if we get the choice but it would be nice if we could.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

This is Frankie right now.

 

[mocoworm]

I have only just watched this. Looks amazing. The amount of care, attention and work that has gone into this release is staggering.

 

[Yager]

This is too much. Like...woah. And I still can't believe that Halo 4 ran in the 360. It looks amazing on the One.

I -expect- it will choose the datacenter with the best ping for you automatically, which is totally fine tbh. I'm like 99,9% sure they will not only use the NA Azure servers.

Honestly I think the online experience will be pretty smooth for everyone overall. I still have some concerns in relation to Halo CE and co-op tho.

 

[JB1981]

Amazing feature set but I really do hate that UI

 

[Leyasu]

We got the choice in titanfall, and it was bliss!

Halo desparately needs the same set-up. I am surprised that no one from the EU/Asia/Aus or NZ are not asking Stinkles the same question on here.

I think that everybody is just assuming that the titanfall set-up will be implemented...

I want to see it confirmed before i get my hopes up.

It's been asked, he's not sure

 

[Chris1]

Yeah I really liked that it let you choose what azure server to play on in titanfall, even though I stayed on the default 99% of the time it's always good to have choice, and it helps those in countries where not many people have an xbox one.

A server-select should be standard for all games running azure for dedi's imo

OT: I love that if you click an achievement it takes you right to the level that unlocks the achievement etc. The rival thing looks pretty cool aswell.

 

[dragonelite]

Dam Halo 4 looks good hope for some 1080p@60fps direct feed footage come on Frankie.

 

[Spades]

This game just gets better and better.

Can't wait.

The default datacenter was always the one with best ping! I never once felt cheated on titanfall.

I did once, then realized I was downloading on my ps4....

GOD DAMN I AM SO HYPE.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

This is such an unbelievably well put together package.

 

[giadartis]

This^

I don't think I have enough vacation time banked to play this game as much as I want. I will probably have to just start sleeping less everyday to make up the time haha.

 

[John Caboose]

It'll be interesting to see if the speedrunning community will go over to the MCC version of these games now.

 

[RulkezX]

I've got a weeks holiday to book in November, I guess I know when to take it now.

I booked my week off the day they announced the release date.

 

[Shake Appeal]

I wish I could be 24 again, with a month off, and this.

 

[Nibel]

Seriously: if I had the cash, I would get a Xbox One with this. This is the dream of every Halo fan.

 

[samurai1226]

I have no idea how i can spend the time in that game that i actually want to. And then there are games like DA:I, FC4, WoWraenor, AC:U that are coming out too.
Maybe ill take a week off just for MCC

 

[V_Ben]

I'm only a minor fan of the series, and the amount of effort they're putting in here is making me want the game a whole lot. Very cool.

 

[derFeef]

I wish I could be 24 again, with a month off, and this.

So. Much. This.

 

[BeforeU]

I wish I could be 24 again, with a month off, and this.

huh? If you could be younger, why 24? I am 24 right now and I wish I could be 18-19year old in highschool time. lol

 

[Vestal]

After sleeping on it last night, I have come to the conclusion that 343 needs to stop. They will be the cause of many divorces and neglected significant others for the next year.


STAPH!

 

[strata8]

I'm a bit worried about the UI.

There's that weird thin font, little or inconsistent distinction between different elements, strange colour choices (blue on blue). Some text is way too small ('Back' at bottom left) and other text is so transparent that it's barely readable.

It's something I noticed coming from Reach to Halo 4 - especially that awful post-game leaderboard - and it doesn't look like 343 has changed anything for the MCC as a whole. They really need to take a leaf out of Bungie's or Playground Games' book. Hopefully Halo 5 improves on things a bit.

 

[The Jackdog]

I really hope this makes its way to multiplayer in some auto-log like format.

Like "Headshots in the last week You: 20 Friend: 21".

A rivals format in multi would be badass, IMO

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

Im gonna be sad if neither of these OT titles make it in.

This Is The Way The World Ends

Master aChiefment Collection

 

[Naminator]

Fucking hell the UI looks like a god damned spreadsheet!

This game package is too massive xD

 

[Prophet Steve]

I actually wasn't even aware Halo 4 in this. Probably just have forgotten.

Nice features though.

 

[Final Verdict]

THIS is why I got an XB1.
The only game worth $460
