Playing the MCC gives you a weird feeling. Like, you're enjoying it because these games are truly great but at the same time you know the series will never come close to that level again with the current devs.
By bud Go To Posttheir only job is to make halo games–and they suck at that, apparently.
why not hand the franchise over the id or something?
Outside of ID technically not being a part of XGS yet, they should.
Time to put 343 down
Seems like a fall 2021 title at this rate if they are lucky
Halo multiplayer launches in spring or does the beta thing with season passes

By Laboured Go To PostI thought it was coming out this year, it’s on the Xbox Series X box tho.
By Smokey Go To PostOutside of ID technically not being a part of XGS yet, they should.Imo arkane + Id would be killer
Halo 5 has the second best (arena) MP in the entire series so they hardly suck at it.
Chris Lee's departure has been very obvious ever since they brought back Staten. Only real surprise is how long it took.

With the upcoming launch of the Xbox Series X|S on November 10, together we are ushering in the next generation of gaming delivering a level of power, performance and compatibility never before seen in console gaming, powered by AMD’s latest “Zen 2” and RDNA 2 architectures. Xbox Series X|S are the only next-generation consoles with full hardware support for all the RDNA 2 capabilities AMD showcased today.
Not sure what they're referring to here. Is PS5 missing some features?

That one tech dude that makes super long and videos and predicted the how reveal says ps5 has some rdna3 features but doubt it.
*Disclaimer I have no idea what I'm talking about.
By sy Go To PostStill the same app for me but it says available now 🤔
You can launch ps5 games and managr storage directly from the app
MS needs to just give up. It’s so awkward seeing all these commercials themed around Halo
By sy Go To PostPS app was due to this for a long time. Having to have 2 fucking apps was a massive joke.

By Daz Go To PostI see MS is jumpstarting its warriors on twitter again.Time to suit up and defend Sony's honor m9. This must not go unchallenged.
By inky Go To PostTime to suit up and defend Sony's honor m9. This must not go unchallenged.If you want.
Experience PlayStation old as fuck it was last updated 2 months ago and has iOS updates from 3y ago. Sy spreading fake news
You can now create party groups from PS App, and voice chat with up to 15 other friends though your mobile phone.
It seems that you can voice chat through the phone now with PS4/5 players? Is that what it is?

Looks like there's not enough information yet on the PS5 GPU to be sure.
One of the interesting lines from that Xbox.com piece:
"Finally, Variable Rate Shading (VRS) delivers much finer grain control on how developers can leverage the full power of the Xbox Series X|S by enabling developers to focus their GPU resources on the areas of a frame that most benefit without reducing the overall image quality. By leveraging techniques like VRS, games such as Gears 5 can see performance increases up to 15% and beyond."

Iirc Gears Tactics on PC uses VRS and it's quite an ugly feature but maybe it's less noticeable in games where the camera is less static.

From my vantage point Microsoft did it backwards. The console has been on peoples desks for weeks now. Anyone that wanted to know what it looks like has had weeks and multiple videos to look at it. OLD games have been played on it. Quick resume has been shown off. Weeks later, ie., today! you let people "unbox" it to a significantly less amount of fanfare.

By Hixx Go To PostHalo 5 has the second best (arena) MP in the entire series so they hardly suck at it.I wouldn't say that. They brought Staten in to take over for Tim Longo, who had been the campaign director. They also moved their lead MCC producer into Infinite multiplayer director back in July. Unless Staten is going to be overseeing the entire project now, but I don't know if he signed up for that.
Chris Lee's departure has been very obvious ever since they brought back Staten. Only real surprise is how long it took.
I really think that if Microsoft is intent on 343 overseeing all things Halo still, they probably need to dump Bonnie Ross as studio head at this point. She's been leading the studio since 2007 and they've basically always been a wreck from the top down. They seem to have very little in the way of strong leadership.
343i cant develop an engine for shit. I remember bonnie saying the reason why they were taking so long was to develop an engine to avoid crunch and issues but its still a trainwreck. Jump on the unreal engine ship, yall aint naughty dog or rockstar.
