At least they didn't use Cardi B to promote this game. This game might be good after all.
People praised what they saw last year and 2018, it was the best of the old art style but with near cgi graphics. We shouldnt compare this to low budget battle royale games.
With CyberPunk and The Observer and countless pc games that were graphical showcases, they cant use multiple hardware options as an excuse.
The graphics look better than the last gameplay demo. Hopefully Halo Infinite gets the same treatment.
Some devs focus on only making a great single player game, some devs focus on only making a great multiplayer game. With each Halo game you can be sure that both components are going to be good if not great. Not a whole lot of developers can claim that even if the new Halo games have fallen off track a little.
Kill zone shadow fall can practically stand toe to toe with the newer ps4 games
The problem is maybe the build has issues, like maybe the enemies might be noclipping out of the ground like they are being summoned from the devil, or weapons not functioning clearly. Thats why they only showed a couple seconds from the newer build. Some devs just have a more functioning build even two years before release and then downgrade a little. Im hoping they can do a reverse Ubisoft and somehow get close to the older reveal trailers. Maybe this might be a situation where they focus ...
Certain parts of the demo look much better than the parts that became memes. The area when Chief first walks out has detailed rocks https://i.redd.it/8cmnpyo7x... proper lighting, decent looking water reflections, and somehow in the second half of the demo all that detailed disappeared. With some simple adjustments this game can resemble the 2018 trailer, parts of it are already there like what i said with the realistically m...
I remember bungie had a couple vidocs that showed halo 3 with unfinishes textures, but that wasnt suppose to be a showcase tho, just a look at how they make the game. This is suppose to be a showcase, if they can clarify that the game will match the cutscenes, which the halo games usually do then i could see where those years building the new engine went to. But what matters most is if its a fun game, plenty of pretty games that just arent a lot of fun.
@jereth, I dont think its going to be an open world like GTA, think of it as what Silent Cartographer was, with multiple ways to complete the level and every level will be like that. There will still be Cutscenes between levels.
M fine if they explained that the new build was older than the trailer, but why show off the screens from the old build and not from the trailer, its embarrassing to showcase a pic of a grunt that didnt even load in properly and has textures from a ps1 game.
Apparently this was an old build. They showed a few clips from the newer build in the 2 min trailer and it looks much better. Its just a bit inconsistent, theres some rocks that are super detailed that look on par with the 2018 trailer and then they have those trees that are on par with something from halo 3.
The shorter gameplay trailer has more details. The 8 minute demo is apparently from an earlier unpolished build. I'm hoping for a reverse Ubisoft.
The thing with BR is that its not as simple as adding a couple flags or a moving hill or ball to hold. It takes a bunch of resources for that one mode, almost like a separate game in itself.
Halo 2 legendary should be on the list, however cheap it is, with the noob combo or smg, plasma combo being the only way to get thru and the snipers with the aimbot forcing you to memorize where and when they pop out.
It happened with the Halo ce pc port.
As long as they dont downgrade the visuals from the previous two trailers then it should be a bar setting showcase.
There werent any looting or burning cities when Daniel Shaver was wrongfully killed by a cop who was then not found guilty and is still eligible to still be a cop a year later.
I dont see Halo on this list. I know the PC port is still playable, but it was heavily downgraded with the graphics and AI, and they decided to port that downgraded version to the MCC, so the only way to play the game the way it was meant to be is to play it on the og Xbox.
Most of it just comes down to laziness from the devs, even tho 343 produced Halo 4 which looked pretty good for its time. Crossgen and weaker hardware didnt limit the Crysis trilogy or the Metro trilogy or MGS5 from becoming graphically great games.
