Halo Infinite multiplayer is 113k concurrent player on steam now

How about you learn the difference between your and you're before you try to get smart with people on the internet? Thanks.
Lmao like I said take a break pal. You must be fun to be around, I feel bad If you have a significant other. Very unlikely from your behavior though.
 
No Fullscreen option
No option to disable motion blur
No option to disable chromatic aberration

Until this is fixed it's a shit game.

Aw, I must have hit a nerve because you immediately resorted to personal insults! Keep it up, you'll last long here.
 
ok, they definitely need to speed up Battlepass progression... I played 4 games any only am level 1 now... like what?
In Apex Legends I easily get a full level up during my first 2 games of the day (sometimes when the challenges are just right I get a full level in my first match)

Weekly challenges give WAY too little XP. 200xp for a weekly is weird, and they are handled weirdly, you can't even see/complete all of them from the beginning, you first have to complete the first few visible ones and after each you complete, one that wasn't visible yet gets moved up and only then can you actually complete it.

this lead to a situation where I played a deathmatch where I killed literally 6 people with the Warthog turret, only to then see the weekly challenge in my menu to kill 1 enemy with said turret... like, what? such a weird way to handle weekly challenges

The only nerves hit are on you, you've been losing your shit on a forum for the last while. I have no problem calling out a man child for his behavior problems, you act like your a child online very pathetic. I'd be embarrassed posting as triggered as you over other people discussing their enjoyment on a game. Must not have much else to do in your sad life.

I agree you should get a baseline 50xp a game or something. Feels daft if you don't complete a challenge at the end of a game you don't progress.

I don't even have an issue with that really, but the weekly challenges just feel so low value, and I want to see all of them at once and not have that situation I described above where I easily completed the challenge, but because there were different ones in front of it and it wasn't "available" to me yet I didn't complete it.

having xp for finished games would be nice tho. or at the very least for games you win

The only thing I'm triggered about is your horrible grammar. Jesus christ! You literally write and throw out insults like a 10 year old lmao

Anyway, it's been fun but I'm off to play the game now. Surprise, I was killing time while it downloaded!

But according to you, I hate that people are having fun in the game... Makes total sense. /s

Halo is like one of the cleanest looking games presentation wise out there. In what way is any of what you said a distraction to this game's visual presentation? Especially since you can control blur. It's the first thing they give you access to in the accessibility menu when you open the game. You can drag it all the way down to like 0.. out of a 100. Maybe it's a different blur, I would think it's the one you're referring to.
 
Game is great, but I'm not sure about this battle pass?
There's a lot locked behind the paid version (as expected) but you can only progress it by doing challenges? Don't get general XP towards it per game? So if you wanna finish it and get everything you have to both pay AND grind it out every day?

IIRC They are changing the Progression system and how it works. They mentioned it in the recent waypoint post.

No Fullscreen option

exclusive fullscreen barely has any lag or performance benefits anymore. many newer games don't have it. and I bet you have fallen for fake exclusive fullscreen modes in the past.

hint: not a single Direct X 12 game has an actual exclusive full screen mode. they all have borderless window. the exclusive fullscreen modes some of these Direct X 12 games offer only emulate some of the behaviour of what exclusive full screen does, but technically it's still borderless window full screen, it's more or less a placebo setting that offers little to no difference from borderless window

Where has the time gone that the actual match you play is the reward, instead of moaning about my xp progress on day one isn't level 999
 
Ban page going to be interesting tomorrow. This thread brought out trolls I've never even seen here before lol. Imagine being that triggered

Yeah people just seem to be so used to hitting level 100 after 3 hours these days.
I actually prefer having to work for it, it keeps you playing.

the issue is that when a game has such a system, and it feels unrewarding, that is an issue.
a game that doesn't have this in the first place is also ok, but if you have a feature in a game, it should be good, even tho it's not a feature that is essential.

I play games that have zero progression in them, and I have lots of fun with them, but having a progression system that just feels odd in place is distracting no matter if you want such a system or not.

but it really only needs a few tweaks imo. like I said, having all weekly challenges available instantly would solve most of the slow feel the system has atm.

Why do you people keep calling it "EXLUSIVE". There's nothing exclusive about it. Did you start gaming on PC 5 years ago or something? Fullscreen was always default.

Battlefield 2042 supports Fullscreen and it's DX12. Also I want to be able to use DSR because the TAA is a atrocious.

because there are 2 types of fullscreen, exclusive full screen and borderless window fullscreen.
Halo infinite has boderless window fullscreen (Like every DX12 game, including BF 2042). but some DX12 games have a "fake" exclusive full screen modes that mimic that fullscreen mode, but in reality they still operate in a borderless window


also remove that PC Master Race profile pic of yours if you don't even know basic stuff like what exclusive full screen means/is... like... wtf is this? :messenger_tears_of_joy:

They dont mean Exclusive in that way. On PC there is 'fullscreen' which is often just borderless windowed, and 'Exclusive fullscreen', which is well, proper full screen.

EDIT. Beaten to it.

9 kills 9 deaths so far. First competitive fps I've played in years.

Its fun, but I can tell I'm going to just get worked. I'll play the campaign.
That's the one thing that bums me out about online play these days. I just don't have time to "git gud." So even though there is stuff I'd love to play, I end up just … not.
 
LMAO I'm really pissing off a lot of illiterate children today, huh?

Let me make this abundantly clear to you and every other child that is getting emotionally defensive: I don't give a single fuck about your company allegiances. That's for the pathetic children to slug it out in the schoolyards and Twitter, not here. Stop acting like idiots, I beg you.

If you disagree with my explanation as to why a popular shooter is experiencing a day 1 surge, then that's fine - I don't care.

But when you bring up another Microsoft game as a defense and act like I'm the one that has an agenda, it's immediately obvious that you're reacting emotionally in defense of your favorite company. Just stop.
picture someone GIF


Having said all that, it was never my intention or desire to shit up a thread with a back-and-forth with actual manbabies, so I'll stop responding to them now.
Congrats! You've entered their echo chamber. Anything outside of that is to be dismissed. You'll stay sane if you just ignore 'em and let them hear their own echos. It's peaceful that way.

Sounds like your taking your interneting way too serious today, Maybe you should hop off before popping more blood vessels. Your clearly angry about people enjoying a game. you don't need to reply to people if they bother you that much.
Lol, no. That's not what's happening.

You dont have to be good, just play for fun. I couldnt care less about my K/D ratio.
Nothing wrong with being good of course, but i think people care too much about that and forget the fun. I think thats why COD dropped the whole K/D thing.

Not to mention now might be the best time to jump in, given everyone is starting pretty much fresh.

I was in an oddball match where I didn't die once... we won 200 to 0 because the only person that ever touched the oddball was me xD

so yeah, right now is the best time to get in

Yeah but sometimes these kids (or adults? I dunno, seems like kids are the ones with all the time ...) get so good I don't even get a chance lol. There is a difference between having fun and getting absolutely smeared ...

play BTB

people sweat a lot in Arena mode, even non-ranked
 
Played a bunch of different game types then got in some ranked matches before I had to get the kids. Game is fuckin slick, runs like a champ on my aging PC too. Went undefeated in 5 ranked games and even had a positive K/D. Feels good on keyboard and mouse

So it's called FULLSCREEN. I'm keeping the avatar. Why? Because before it was called "exclusive" fullscreen by console devs it was called... Fullscreen :messenger_neutral:. I googled it, there's no fucking difference.

Next time you play Battlefield don't call them lobbies. Call them SERVERS.

They dont mean Exclusive in that way. On PC there is 'fullscreen' which is often just borderless windowed, and 'Exclusive fullscreen', which is well, proper full screen.

EDIT. Beaten to it.

When a game doesn't have proper Fullscreen DSR won't work. Rainbow Six 3 has proper Fullscreen and that game came out in 2003. 90% of the old games I have, have proper and REAL Fullscreen.

So yeah, it's called Fullscreen. Exclusive Fullscreen, what the fuck is that shit?

halo usually also has for fun modes like Infection or Grifball... Big Team Battle usually is also a good playlist for people that aren't super hardcore because of the map size and the craziness of the matches every type of player usually has fun in that... you can get lucky and get a snimper and then just sit in a good spot and snipe people... or you hop into a tank and blast people with that etc.

currently they only have 3 playlists sadly, but Big Team is there at least
 
Its 219k now. USA is awake now. So expect more pc players to log in to the game. Also twitch has been going insane with it. It went to 245k, and now down to 122k, since people are playing the game.
I cant believe its blown past Destiny 2's Steam numbers in 4 hours, and it took Destiny two days to hit 200k.
Destiny was F2P too.

so basically you are not very knowledgeable about PC stuff... I actually thought you meant that Halo has no exclusive full screen when you said it has no fullscreen... because guess what... Halo infinite has fullscreen... it's right there in the options you absolute boon :messenger_tears_of_joy:

AND YES there is a difference between borderless fullscreen and exclusive fullscreen you nooblet lol exclusive fullscreen can change display modes, boderless can not. Boderless is literally a window that is streched to your screen size, exclusive full screen completely takes over your video output. every older game that runs in fullscreen does that...

play an old game that runs in exclusive fullscreen, change the resolution to something that doesn't correspond to your monitor's resolution, and then Alt-Tab out of the game... see what happens...
now do the same in a modern DX12 game that runs in borderless window... you will notice that Atl+Tabing out of a boderless game is way less janky because your video output mode is the same at all times.

Enjoying everything apart from the visuals, I'm on Series X and I know the old Halo art style debate thing, i just expect better on my next gen console . Just look at the lady character model in the training mode, she speaks to you as a introduction, her armour in particular, the lack of detail, it's like a early X1 game.

Everything else is good and that menu music is sublime !

Have you really not seen the option for 'Exclusive Fullscreen' in the options of PC games?, its been there for years.

Do you need a hug?
 
im enjoying it so far but I'm trying to get used to the number of rounds it takes to kill someone and sometimes I feel like I've done 95% of the damage only for my teammate to finish him off and get the kill

Are you fucking trolling? You're putting words in my mouth. I never said there wasn't a difference between "Exclusive" Fullscreen and borderless. I said there's no difference between Fullscreen and Exclusive Fullscreen.

Halo Infinite does not have a Fullscreen option.

I'm using DSR in this pic. Before you say something stupid Fullscreen windowed and borderless fullscreen are the fucking same. They do the same exact thing. It's a windowed mode without borders.

I can't tell you what's wrong with your setup, but it works for me...
try hitting Alt + Enter (I assume you didn't know that that's a universal fullscreen keyboard shortcut) but that usually doesn't work with DX12 games

also, I am specifying exclusive fullscreen because, like I said, that fullscreen you see in that options menu is fake. DX12 games have fake exclusive full screen modes that work basically the same as Fullscreen Windows (Borderless window)

and when you stated that "halo has no fullscreen" I expected you to mean that it only has borderless window and that that pisses you off... maybe next time state what you mean more correctly and say "fullscreen isn't working for me" instead
