Hmm, I won't be too bothered if it's mainly cutscenes, as long as the gameplay is smooth.
Regarding framerates- anytime I download 60fps vids from gamersyde or wherever there are always issues with the way they play on my computer (usually phone works better but not 100% of the time). Unless you're watching the vids on a beast machine I'd say its best to reserve judgement on the consistency of the framerate until DF or some of these reviewers release details....
The CE cutscenes are the same way in Halo PC. Everything else looks pretty smooth so far.
Yeah, actually. Watching Naded's video frame by frame:

In that video you posted, it took 32 frames to kill, so 1.1 seconds. In Naded's video, it took 31 frames to get 7 shots off in his first kill (youtube is at 30 fps, obviously), and that was despite him shooting slightly sub-optimally on the fourth shot.

Bravo posts a lot more, usually see Quinn browsing or interacting in our liveshows from what I've seen. Either way it always cool to see people from the 343i interacting and reading community stuff.

Does Iron Gaming ever post at Beyond?
My time to be an over-analytical butt-hole:
I found it odd that the new Covenant city of High Charity appears to be a human city landscape. Very jarring. Looks like they photoshopped an actual night time human city photograph and pasted it in there lol...
That looks horrible, lol.
That's actually an Easter Egg, get out of the map, and you get to play the ODST remake down there.
Now and then, we have been in talks with TurboTheShow (their new CM) recently. Good guy.

Reminds me of the original Deus Ex, only blue...
This has just topped off the collection for me. So hyped to run some Halo with my high school friends who stopped playing after Halo 3. 3/4 I've asked are picking up an XB1 for Halo, the other just plays PC now.
So happy, how the hell am I going to study for my exams in the next 1-3 weeks :\

I was really happy for Frank and wanted to congratulate him on getting this casting gig but there is no thread or any annoucement for the Iron Gaming event anywhere on Beyond. Wish him luck for me.

For what it's worth regarding the frame rate...it's been buttery smooth. And that's from games on 1,2 and 3.
Take that as you will.

I want to wake up tomorrow and have it be Nov 11th.
You better start running!
Digital, and no the 20GB CU has not been applied yet.

What does the out-of-map areas look like in Anniversary mode?

Same happened to me a few days ago. He's just spamming follows to get people to follow him back.

HD original textures and whatnot? Or what?

Hopefully some of those issues are ironed out, then. I remember it being mentioned that it included a TU for the game itself, in the CU. So that's great, onward to November!

When you played CEA in 2011 did you personally notice the slight controller input lag when playing in Anniversary mode? And if you did, is it present in the MCC version and does it affect H2A?

Mmmm. Although he only mentions the Carbine, the stuff we're seeing right now is pre-patch. So there's hope.
This is something I'm very curious about...

Like out of Delta Halo.
Mhm, I might have spent more time out of that level driving around the lake than actually playing the level.

Should all be in HD but obviously if you skip certain points in the game it probably won't load all the textures and whatnot.
The Gamersyde footage, which is 1080p/60 has a fair bit of stuttering in CE, 2, and 3. 4 looked surprisingly solid, at least to me.
Footage is 60fps but there's things from HaloCE that were designed for 30fps
For example when chief is on a pelican, you can see all these stutters as it flies through the air
Game should play great and most problems will exist in cutscenes

I was watching Sikamikanico's stream earlier. He's saying it was smooth, but the stream was meh. If anything, the streaming itself is the issue. Hopefully the TU fixes some of it.
I said that too, but it was something to do with the player for me. Outside of Halo CE cutscenes it's fine. Those cutscenes were smoother on the original Xbox at 50hz/25fps.
Not to mention that the animations still look like they were rigged for 30FPS.

They seemed to want to capture the special butterfly thing where noone gets butthurt by seeing their betters beat them in matchmaking.
garbage.
Frankie will still say that it's digital e-peen measuring
most of the issues should have been fixed when being ported to the new consoles. and MP should be a disc and not part of a patch that is 1/3 the size of the content on the disc.
/r/halo isn't that bad...

Ah, I mentioned that in my stream. It felt 'gone', and immensely improved because of it.
Also, I just played some H2 OG customs...
I'm on my phone, so don't have a gif that can appropriately convey the feels.
