The DF thread when the release game inevitably drops below 60fps is gonna be something. VinFTW and Wesley will have their hands full during damage control against all the "after all the LAN/split Screen/feature cutbacks, dynamic sub-900p rez, and the MCC disaster, they STILL can't even do a locked 60fps!?!? lazy/incompetent devs 3 strikes you out 343 rip Halo is dad doesn't even look that good BF shits on this"
The only console game that I'm aware of that's like dead locked 60fps is Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker.
Why do you include me in this shit?
There's a difference between defending every decision 343 makes and being frustrated over joke posts and shit posts.
If the final game isn't 60fps you can count me in the 'disappointed crowd'. Talk to me when the final game hits, till then, keep doing you and being the coolest cat on HaloGAF
Does no one recall me leading the riot when the first H5 footage leaked?
Fuck, come on now JC, you can't compare me to Wesley... :'(
The Forza Motorsport games are all completely locked.
I think even the last gen games were locked to 60. I think the first game was 30 though...

I wasn't paying attention to the shit commentary, I'll have to watch it again to see.
because of processing of data on the servers

yeah that was a bit far, sorry pal.

Hows the Gun Mettle update btw? Thinking about reinstalling TF2. I'm probably garbo at that game now though :/
I was under the impression it was done for cheating purposes
The cloud tho

SWAT is king supreme. All day err day.
I'm just kidding. I don't really like SWAT.

It's alright, I'll play it occasionally if I want to mix it up. However, for the most part I just avoid it.
Considering It is July and 343 haven't spoke a peep about resolution, It is a pretty fair sign that it may not be 1080p come October in 3 months. I would actually be surprised it it was 1080p when it launches. I expect it'll be like what Battlefield does, where its like 900p or something.
Except they did, frank and josh both said not to draw performance conclusions from those builds.
That doesn't necessarily mean much, but I've been told plenty of times in the past that most performance pass stuff comes pretty late in the dev cycle.
I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being whatever halo 2 anniversary was. But if it's full 1080p then I'll be pleasantly surprised

I don't care, as long as it's not totally ass-looking and it's big and open.
I remember Halo 3 getting a lot of shit about the jaggies. Pfft, the Covenant and the Ark blow my socks off still today.

No matter what resolution the game runs at, I hope 343 (and most other devs for that matter) do not listen to this "30fps SP 60fps MP" BS. That jarring difference between two different modes in the same game would put me off way more than a resolution like 720p. Same frame rate should be used across the board, and that frame rate should be 60fps for Halo from now on.
Obviously it's not a concern for this game. Halo 5's SP isn't going to be all of a sudden locked at 30fps. But I hope this isn't something they consider for future games.

Back in the Reach days I had periods where I'd play nothing but SWAT for weeks. Somehow I loved it, even with shitastic full bloom DMR. I definitely can't play it all the time, though. Normal 4v4 is my OTP.

Battlefield and Battlefront (according to the E3 footage) are only 900p on PS4.
Both Battlefield games run at 720p on XboxOne...

I also played a lot of SWAT in Reach, I remember because everyone always voted for The Cage.

that's where I am
accept your dynamic sub-900p overlords right now and you won't be disappointed, even when the framerate inevitably drops below 60 despite claims otherwise

Your point being? Halo 5 isn't battlefield and 343 isn't DICE. Jumping to these conclusions based on other games is a pretty weak argument.
It's probably stupid to expect a locked 60, but I really hope they exceed my expectations on that front.
I'd be MUCH more upset to see anything in the low 50's than seeing <900p res.

After h3's shitastic netcode and br, reach swat was amazing.
I expect it to be 1080p and drop to 900 at worst.
It's frustrating for me because I'm not good at it.

Less melee kill trades is enough to warrant 60fps alone imo

I just corrected what Nowise thought. Whats your mission now?
Uhm Halo tries to push more players Online now and the only game you can compare that with is the Battlefield series.

It's can be frustrating because it really just comes down to who sees the other person first. If some has the drop on you, you're pretty much boned, unless they just have terrible aim.
I'm that person with terrible aim. I'm normally okay but SWAT stresses me out and I do worse because of it.

Do you guys think there will be another HCS tournament with Halo 5 at gamescom? I really wonder how everything is going to work with Specator mode etc.
I hope the Spectator mode has some neat overlays like in CoD.

What kind of overlays?
I hope it has at least x-ray mode

That seems pretty barebones. I'd expect H5 to have something of that level.
Oracle mode is confirmed I'm pretty sure.
Yeah what I meant with my statement, that Halo 5 was just going to be 900p, rather then 720p, or 1080p. I could've probably taken Battlefield out of my sentence.

I understand and empathize with the debate about graphics and such... But art aesthetic and style have the biggest impact for me when it comes to making something visually appealing. I'm not sure if Halo 5 will be a rock solid 60fps because of the performance problems in the MCC campaigns, but the art in Halo 1 and 2 just really pop for me. Halo 1's original graphics are still charming to me (despite the MCC version being the visually gimped PC variant).
So far Halo 5's art looks pretty nice and visually consistent. Even the forge pieces had a nice clean look to them. Halo 5 just had a clearer and cleaner aesthetic over Halo 4, which I appreciate a ton.

Yeah I really liked the design of the campaign level they showed. Really cool art style coming through in Halo 5.

The Amriger designs are great, as well.
