Just watched the footage of match on Gamersyde.
HOOOLYY SHIT it looks amazing! I watched it in bothe 30 and 60 FPS as well just to see the difference. 60 FPS is weird. Really awesome looking. But it feels so weird with Halo. I thought my head was gonna explode.
Franky wasn't joking when he said you'd be able to tell which side of the map you're on.
The Halo Channel looks really cool as well.
I am so excited for this game.

Where did you watch campaign footage? I must know!I just got around to watching the H2A footage and OH MY GODDDDD
60FPS looks so good with Halo. Took me a minute to adjust, but when I did it looked perfect. So far I honestly have zero complaints about the look of H2A minus the "flatness" of the Elite shielding. It's honestly exactly what I'd ask for from a remake of Halo 2 on XBO hardware - it looks a lot more faithful to Halo 2 overall (albeit I considered CEA's look over CE's stylistically a massive improvement) and works extremely well within the confines of having the original graphics underneath. Things are surprisingly rich in contrast to the really muted green-purple-gray-brown that governed the original's colors, and the matte-ness of it compared to how glossy CE and CEA were is nice, again, it feels really faithful.
I love how visible flame kicks up beneath the smoke of the frags Metal Slug-style, too. I hope that gets worked into Halo 5 rather than the usual "even radial distribution of near-instant heat and smoke" that most grenades pull.
You have been banned from like 3+ Halo communities, sometimes you have to take time and reflect that maybe it isn't others but yourself.
I don't mind your posts tbh, but when you constantly shit talk people and bring very little to the conversation you will get banned.
I honestly don't know about our community anymore, people say we can be aggressive, too competetive and now suddenly slurpers. If we are all of those then I guess we are in the medium and I'm ok with that.
Was watching some chick try to beat this part on the silent hill demo. Waste. of. Time.
goooo it's back up
I've now found cheap next gen consoles for 3 different gaffers, haha.
Deals are my thing. <3
I paid full fuckin' MSRP for my PS4 then found one for someone else at $270 like 3 months later

So, Frank, you guys have Gaf seating for the PAX panel? 
I'll be headed out there with a friend on Thursday that week.
Hopefully not in the parking lot...

Watched that H2A MP footage a couple times. Is it me or are there 2 different sound effects used for the Magnum?
New sound effects when the player uses it around the 1:02 mark and the Halo 4 sound effect when an opponent is firing one around the 1:22 mark.
The gameplay itself looks great but I'm not happy with a few things.

- Loadouts a.k.a. Weaponsets
- Grenade markers
- Player Models (they have a perfectly good Chief model they can use from Campaign)

Well, my Gold just ran out. Not going to renew unless I get an Xbox One in the distant future. Had a lot of fun playing with you guys in the past, though.

I'm actually fine with weaponsets, as long as they don't nerf the point of on-map weapons, and by the looks of it, they wont.

Franklez, can you comment on whether or not the music in the Halo 5 Beta First look video is work-in-progress music for the Halo 5 soundtrack? I really really like what I've heard so far. I believe in Kazuma.
If Daedalos' Gold runs out and he still doesn't have a mic, does anyone care?
Get a One sooner.

Hmmm so there's a gravlift from shotgun tunnel to snipe on Sanctuary now. Interesting.

I actually like this adjustment.
The brute chopper and grenade launcher both need to make their return in Halo 5, both were awesome to use. The Revenant in Reach was a sad replacement for the chopper (though I liked that too).
Fascinating.
I never thought such things could be...
So HaloGaf how long before the salt is delivered? I'm making pretzels.
At this rate I doubt there will be much. I like my pretzels with some sugar anyway.
Me too!
I'll reserve my judgement until I play it.

Taxes (freaking corrupted aduanas) would make the cost nearly identical because is a luxury item and have special taxes.
This is neogaf. You make up your goddamned mind NOW. And don't be dissuaded by evidence.
Can't wait to play tank pinball on Coagulation.
So much fun.
I haven't seen anyone point this out yet so does the fact that they will be making a model in the MCC for the Spectre (at least in the campaign) make it more likely it'll be in the 2.5 multiplayer?

Halo Wars devs did a fine job IMO.
I've made up my mind that it'd be pretty cool to make an OP Pistol for the Beta just to test out :] -- Who knows, maybe people will like it enough for AR/Pistol starts :] :] :]

idk if they use the same stuff cause the SMG model in the multiplayer looks sexy but looks like poo in the campaign.

What was the deal with neogaf this morning? I was bummed that it wasn't working during the MS conference. I had to resort to complimenting Halo MCC on Tashi's twitter. I'm sure gaf was back up in time for Sony's conference...
conspiracy theory!
I have yet to find Pitfall in a game of matchmaking in Halo 4, so I don't know how much the grav lift affected sword room area. It depends on how it plays whether it's good or not I guess.
I see. I haven't managed to get a look at the campaign footage they showed yet due to it not working on my phone (and I am without a computer

There is a grav lift on the pit into sword room in halo 4?!

Hell yes.
I'm open to the idea. I'd probably prefer a moderately difficult trick jump, but a grav lift is okay, too.
Yeah, from the hallway underneath, there is a grav lift to right in front of sword spawn entrance and behind the sword is a drop down.

Sad panda here with no mention of a halo master chief collection bundle/special edition console. It perplexes me to no end why MS makes the decisions they do. In light of Sony running away with all the sales, announcing or just teasing Banjo Kazooie would have caused quite a stir at gamescom, possibly mass pandemonium. It doesn't even take a genius or even someone with a marketing/business degree to know what games they could work on to promote some serious hype for the xbox one. They really need to let Rare loose to do some new non-kinect stuff and also to work on older IP's like Viva Pinata, Banjo Kazooie, and Conquer.

It was released in 2008 and fairly popular. It's been 6 years. Viva Pinata and Lost in Paradise were released in 2006 and 2008 respectively. I guess I'm not sure what you're saying.
Why does this exist?
How about you give us a Halo bundle?
MS: CALL OF DUTY?
No, I rather have a Halo bundle.

This. Exactly. I mean they've been trying to play up the call of duty crowd for years and it's not even exclusive. Should have gone with the MCC seeing how it's literally the one game generating so much appeal for the xbox one right now.How about you give us a Halo bundle?

I don't know what's going on over there.
I didn't play it much but from what I did play it wasn't that great. At least not as a Banjo game. Plus I hate the character design. Ugh...
Isn't it generally dislike among the fanbase though?
Do you think it's worth giving another shot?
It baffles me that instead of celebrating the game that is essentially the reason for its success with a special edition they decide to promote a stupid fish with lasers that stagnates innovation...How about you give us a Halo bundle?

Maybe not, but a lot of the problems were because Rare deviated from the game's platforming roots. I think it has a decent enough following though, and could be big again if given a chance. During the press conference this morning, I was disappointed that the exclusive premier was Scream Ride. Could be fun, but I don't see a roller coaster tycoon game doing much on the xbox one. I could be wrong. There are plenty of decent enough IP's that could be brought back and I don't understand why MS won't allow Rare to jump back into mainstream games.
Rare made some good games back in the day. I loved the first to Banjo and Kazooie games and own the first one on the 360. I they just need to be given complete creative freedom so they can stretch their wings.

OT, but I just got done producing a suite that ended up being 12:18. Album's at 13/21 tracks so far and it's already 61 mins long. Feelsgoodman.jpreg
debating hosting it on soundcloud but I've already hosted half the album on there already
Soundtrack for your game?
