YEAH RIGHT. I don't believe any of that.

Too good to be true. If it's true.. then expect to be blown away at E3 2014. Will take that leak with a huge helping of salt. Highly doubt it.

Alright guys, so what are the chances Halo 5 can look this good?

Honestly? Very likely, those devs are brilliant at what they do.

I hope so, because while that looks really nice it doesn't scream first party AAA "Next Gen".

I hope 343 redesigns their redesigns of the Covenant to make them closer to their past iterations while retaining the newly added detail.

More so, I hope 343 makes characters animate more fluidly and dynamically.

Xbone is much quicker to write than "XB1", "X1" or any other marketing shorthand. Complain to Microsoft for calling their new system the Microsoft Xbone.



While I didn't experience this kind of adverse reaction to Halo 4 myself, I don't think its singleplayer campaign should have been longer than it was in any way - these kinds of shooter campaigns get tedious pretty fast.

How is Xbone quicker than X1? xD

To the original question; Xbone was a joke post from one of our members here when MS did the first reveal that was focussed on TV. Someone posted 'Xboned', I think it was the first post as well, and a lot of people found it funny (mostly Sony fanboys). Personally I didn't think it was even slightly funny.
 
I don't like the new type of enemies in Halo 4. It was like shooting flowers, not satisfying. They need to have enemies that are as good quality as the Covenant Elites, Grunts etc.

Those are basically really big teams battles like 32-64. Gameplay is more inline with Invasion from Halo Reach.

I like the sound of this. Lets hope 343 is doing something like that.

I want battles to feel massive. Lots of things to do. Halo MP has lost me from part 3.

It seems to be the go-to rebuttal / reason to complain about something that has been confirmed to be 60fps.

Personally I'm more worried about scale than the quality of the graphics, if 720p means Halo 3-like levels with lots of enemies/vehicles on screen then I'd take that over a game with reduced scale ala Halo 4 at 1080p.

Frame-rate and scale >>>> IQ. :p

This way I doubt about 1080p native.
 
Probably because they haven't said nothing about resolution? I mean, KZ on ps4 is 30 fps at 1080p, Halo 5 on xbone at 1080p & 60 fps? Sorry but I'm skeptical here.

BF4 is 1080p/60fps on both consoles and one can argue it looks better than KZ. We don't know what particular techniques Guerrilla is using for their game, and we don't know what 343 are doing with their engine on Xbox One. There's no reason to automatically assume its 720p.

BF4 use an engine which work even on ps360, it's very elastic; could be just presumption, but it's quite bizzarre.1080p & 60 fps means a lot of compromises.

Well yeah but that doesn't mean that they will go 720p, I guess something like 1280*1080 or 1920*720 is possible and a better solution than having a 1280*720 framebuffer.

In any case, I haven't said exactly will be 720p. 'smell' . But I'm interest to see what will happens.

Thanks for the clarification, I still think "Xbone" is cheesey as hell.

Worth it for next gen experience.
Is mgs5 1080p@60fps with day and night cycle?
Now im not so sure because i only heard 60 fps and not heard a thing about resolution.

I think I'm breaking up with Halo. The ocean of mass opinion appears to sway like this:

> Halo: Reach/Halo 4 #sobad

> 343 update mp's so slow wtf

> clocked MC

> 60fps

> "Yeah, I could do another Halo."

I'm not falling for this. Halo is a different thing now, and Destiny is out soon. It's not even labeled as a fifth game, just HALO, only HALO. Here's that catchy name once more HALO. Just reeks of brand-snaring, snake oil peddling no-goodery.

Still hope its awesome. But for me, its so long, HALO(wach tv show plz)

I believe so. If the resolution is lower it will be close enough to 1080p for it not to be noticeable to all except tech experts. We know one thing for sure .. it'll look amazing :)

If koji pro can deliver mgs5 1080p@60fps without downgrades i would be an extremely happy camper :p

And gives 343 no excuse to not aim for 1080p@60fps if you ask me being an exclusive studio and dont have to worry about 360 and ps3 level hardware. Time will tell i have all faith in the engine team at 343.

As to why it hasn't been stated what resolution it's at probably has something to do the fact the game is over a year away.

Also because its the Xbox One which only has like 10% of PS4'S power and is seriously underpowered even though people are going to be hard pushed to see any real difference betwen both systems.

It's not 1080p. Don't spread rumors that you know nothing about. The only thing that has been confirmed is 60fps.

They confirmed 1080p/60fps a long time ago for next gen consoles.

Please show me an official source that says this. Someone on the development team. Not that EA CTO quote.
 
I think it's true, but not necessary for the Halo game that's coming next year. I'm thinking this pastebin is for the 2016/2017 Halo project.

I'm just speaking from experience. Whenever I say "seems legit", it's always used sarcastically or when something is so farfectched, it's impossible to be true.

But what do I know?

I thought people started calling it xbone because of the cod: ghosts dog reveal at the xbone unveiling

aka the collar duty system

Yeah you're right, that was my first impression. *lowers hopes*

Can someone make a generation comparison thread? That highlights the differences between them. I'm sick of people saying oh there's not much difference, where is the jump, when the difference is actually pretty substantial, texture res, lighting etc.. would be good to just point it out inblack and white me thinks

More than likely, I wont be getting an Xbox One but I'm still very excited to see what 343i can do with Halo 5. It will be their second game as a studio, and there's no doubt that they've learned from their mistakes with H4.

Halo 4 was one of the most graphically impressive titles this gen, and with Microsoft's support and resources on top of some promising next-gen hardware, Halo 5 is sure to look absolutely stunning, especially considering it will be running at 60 Frames Per Second

Clearly you haven't heard the latest news about what they're adding to the game.

What's that?

A perk that ejects you out of your vehicle when it blows up AND

Legendary Slayer!

It's hard to imagine there's something as good as this in the game but with Legendary Slayer you get to spawn with an Assault Rifle and no secondary weapon!










They clearly haven't learned a damn thing.

Edit: There are other bad decisions but these are the worst at the moment.
