Can we come to agreeable consensus that if 343 cannot hit 60fps and 1080p that it would better to sacrifice some resolution for a (nearly) consistent 60fps?
I just played Perfect Dark remaster yesterday (after realizing it was already made backward compatible) and then I jumped into Destiny with a buddy later on to do some Nightfalls. My eyes literally strained slightly going from PD to Destiny and I discovered later that the culprit was PD remaster runs at 60fps while Destiny is at 30.
Seriously, once you go 60, you can't really go back.

I'd rather they go with a lower res ala H2A to get 60fps personally. It really is hard to go back once you play at 60.
Also, HCS finals is starting!

Hmm "Any achievements, collectibles or skulls ..." From latest blog. I wonder what other type of collectible they mean.
Don't know if this has been brought up in this thread already, but in the first dev blog for Halo 5 I noticed a line that seems to suggest that every character will have slightly different abilities:
There are also subtle differences between the characters in terms of attributes. For example: Kelly is the fastest member of Blue Team, while Tanaka has increased motion tracker range.
Framerate and FOV > resolution, even in campaign. Granted, there's plenty they could sacrifice before having to compromise on any of them (model detail, textures, etc...), but out of the big three resolution is the least important.
Ever since Blue Team came into play we've assumed that's the case, though this is the first time we've been given a direct confirmation.

Some idiots on IGN are saying that HTT is a ripoff of Serial and that it wouldnt exist without Serial.
1. HTT isn't presented as a podcast
2. Serial didn't invent the Broadcast Drama.
3. God I fucking hate IGN and their commenters.
Its essentially the same people who I schooled about ADS while we were on HaloGAF.
Fucking hell.

By Impala26 Go To PostCan we come to agreeable consensus that if 343 cannot hit 60fps and 1080p that it would better to sacrifice some resolution for a (nearly) consistent 60fps?I can. Done it plenty of times switching between CoD and Halo. Never had a problem. Maybe it helps that CoD is inferior to Halo in every other way that matters.

Haha, I mean okay it's DOABLE, but it didn't really hit home for me personally until yesterday.
Upon immediately switching from one game to the other, Destiny looked like a slightly laggy muddied mess compared to playing PD.
My point still stands that I think for virtually everyone, eyes are more acutely tuned to variances in projected motion frames rather than differences in number of pixels. Besides, I think that in video games lighting, shadows, reflections and overall level of detail are more important to nail down in order for a game to look "high-end" or "next-gen".
The fact of the matter is that saying one radio drama ripped off another is completely asinine and incorrect
By jem0208 Go To PostHCS finals have ground to a halt because live is down :/
Give us LAN Microsoft wtf
or release Halo 5 for PC
30 vs 60 is far more noticeable than 900p vs 1080p.
I find it fairly easy to say whether a game is 60 or 30, I find it near impossible to say what the exact resolution is. The only time I see res differences is when there's a direct comparison between two different screens. Even then it's not immediately obvious.
Good series coming up now, Cloud9 vs CLG.

Daaaaaaamn! CLG takes game 1 after being down 2-0 on CTF Shrine, what a comeback.
By Fata1moose Go To PostWould still like to see a Midship re-make in H2A.Truth bruh
Talking about 60fps vs 30fps, I'll be completely honest and say that I haven't ever looked into the noticeable differences between the two. I just play one game and think "wow, this game looks and feels great", or "meh, they could've done a lot better". That being said, I looked up comparisons between the two, and having seen the difference where I can now know what it is about past games I like, I am thoroughly excited for H5G pushing to be 60fps. The gameplay will look amazing, but just as importantly to me, it will feel amazing!
So stoked for this game!

ASFAIK Doom allows you to carry more than 2, but you start with 2. Right?
Don't get the need. It's Doom. Strafe, jump, pickups only, gore and light-speed combat.

FFS I lost my Reach disc. Still have a sealed limited edition from the console, might pop it open if it end up on BC.

Oh, did Bravo post something to TWITTER about the missing friend's list inside the game, you know, the one that lets you play together on the CURRENT game on the Xbone console I was tricked into buying? Did the monitors just post to Waypoint that we were "told" that they were aware of this?
Hey, anyone at343 oops, MICROSOFT, I DON'T USE TWITTER.

In multiplayer, it sounds like you start with 2 and you can swap them out... but you only ever have 2. I hope I'm wrong but I don't think so. Guess we will find out at quakecon, and hopefully they will show some footage.
Jesus Anonamiss... you don't necessarily have to have twitter to check the account.
By daedalius Go To PostThis sounded pretty great to me.I'm the same way. I won't even consider co-op till the campaign shock wears off. I'm role playing a game here, I don't want real life to interfere and take away from my immersion.
First play-through will definitely be solo heroic tho. I gotta get all them nerd feels by myself.

Stinkles posts here, he's not some faceless monster that is a random suit in corporation #892703423 designed to steal our money like maniacal villains. If you were standing right in front of anyone at 343, would you shout at them "Man the FUCK up you weasels, grow some balls!" over a video game, something that brings fun and happiness to a lot of people, like a psychopath? If the answer to that is no, then you should be more mindful of your tone.
And the rest goes for others who throw mindless insults around. Stinkles is a monster, sure, but not for reasons other than teasing a grenade that explodes into CE Pistols.. Not right man, can't tease us* like that.

sorry about before, guys, i didn't mean to yell at you all like that. i'm going through alcohol withdrawal and it's a pain in the ass
HaloGA-I mean ENT, is the weird dysfunctional family you choose. And then can never leave...
Sounds like ass. I would say to get a bit high to ease the pain(?) or something but I don't know if it really helps with withdrawal pains.

I edited my original post to reflect MICROSOFT not 343, I know it's not the developer's fault, they are not able to be as forthcoming as they want to be. And I don't blame Frankie, the fact that he stayed behind to work on the Halo IP is actually one of the reasons I bought and kept Halo 4, and didn't call for a refund on the MCC...hope springs eternal.
As far as bringing "fun and happiness" I get more sastisfaction, fun and happiness from doing what I do for a living these days then trying to play a round in the MCC. When I read that it was announced in a twitter, I just lost it a little bit. I expect the primary website to have the information at least in a community link. I don't want to have to go to multiple sources from an official standpoint. I have to be immediately forthcoming with the customers I come in contact with on a daily basis, even if it means I have to tell them something they don't like, and what it will take to fix, or if it cannot be fixed. I find it a little bit draining when I expect the same kind of professional forthcoming for a completely discretionary purchase and service and I don't get it.
