XBOX GAMING THREAD | PHIL TRUE 4K

[putting in work]

A youtuber put of a vid with all of the Halo's he played on the MCC with clips of everthing... pretty good, though they oppontents were scrubs.

 

[antidope]

As long as they leave MCC up and never take it away I'll be good. I played H3 for seven years over Reach and 4 because I didnt like them and I will do the same with H5.

Theyre trying to appeal to a new base and whatnot, theyre trying to make money over pleasing the core fanbase and its whatever to me.

 

Yeah you do.

What's the ideal aspect ratio for HQ backgrounds?

I honestly have no idea. I just used one of the ones @iYen  posted.

 

[oneilmatt]

Maybe the ADS is just the way they animate zooming in with guns that can zoom?

thats what it looks like to me. The AR is still without sights and the only thing they aimed with was the BR. Sprint isn't the end of the world. Calm down guys.

 

[purpnyellow]

I don't know if you can returned opened games.

Might go peep that b2g1 sale and get sunset.. Don't know what other games I'll want to play tho. Not interested in cod or anything else out.

Thinking about copping a monitor to game on all while using it as a 3rd monitor for my computer

I tried retuning the games last year and they wanted MW to return all 3 games

Oh but it is. Sprint alone breaks Halo on a fundamental level and makes it unplayable.

but thats fighting a losing battle. The day of no sprint games is over. People have to concede that. I can see them taking a look at ADS for assault rifles and other guns( shinobi is credible but still its a year out)

No you don't have to use a USB drive for backgrounds. I have a network drive and I threw a bunch of the pics that iYen posted on there. Got to the pics through media player and just chose one that way.

Are all halo 2 maps going to be in the game?

all the maps are in the game. Only 6 are getting remade

 

[ddash]

Very interesting.

by remade you mean the new stuff they added to the maps or only 6 are getting graphic upgrade?

all the maps are gonna be 60fps/1080p. The remade maps are the ones that have gotten the anniversary treatment in the newer engine. Those remastered maps have the little changes here and there and basically look like halo 4 maps. The ones you are seeing in the tournaments lately are the remastered

 

[blastercombo]

Bruh, I could write a book on how sprint ruins halo

But

We live in the "kinda the same" generation of gaming. Developers rather follow a set of "rules" all games now use, add minor changes, and call it a new game. It's no mystery why battle field, cod, destiny, and TF run very similar. Halo is just following that trend.

Some more halo 5 clips. No ads

Some more halo 5 clips. No ads

But theres a thruster pack (seen at the end of clip 2, the player dashes sideways) and the SMG (what it looks like) has a grenade launcher on the side.

Even if it isnt on all the guns, the fact that its in there at all is a problem. ADS slows player movement in return for accuracy, that has never in the case in a Halo game. You zoom in with a BR, Sniper, Carbine, etc etc you retain the ability to move as you always did.

Also, if you ADS how do you strafe? The answer is you cant.

This game is filled with problems from all the 5 second clips I've seen. We'll see what happens tonight when true footage comes out, but I doubt anything positive is gonna happen.

In regards to the tournament Str8 Rippin is clearly the best team here, they've been playing out of their minds, and Walshys been coaching out of his mind.

We will see about the thrusters. They said no armor perks. So it could just be the video

also, it looks like the guns are just as accurate from hip fire as ads

also, that smb could be a power weapon

my main point is that the new footage looks more like Halo ( reach and 4) than the original clips did


Also aside from all that, even though its shoot with a thick layer of gasoline, game probably looks beautiful

the time to kill looks quick

maybe, but in this clip, it looks like he unloads a good amount of ammo from his AR, and the guy is still alive

No penalty to hip fire in H5, no movement penalty when scoping/zooming, no flinch. Tune in for the beta gameplay reveal at #HaloFest Monday.

Well that answers my question. Although this doesnt solve the problem of Sprint. Sprint has been the #1 problem this entire time, Sprint in Halo ruins everything, the game has to be balanced around it and causes a multitude of problems. Look how stretched out that Midship remake is, it has to be that way because of Sprint. I'll wait and see what else happens, but at least one issue just died.
