Im genuinely excited for Halo Infinite are people just shit posting or does everyone actually hate it?

It looks fine, but after 5 years and 2 games worth of criticism people were expecting more than fine.

Yeah I get that I just had to ask because I watched the Xbox showcase with a friend and we both thought halo looked really fun. It's hard to tell how much of the hate is real or just shit posting. I think infinite is a big course correction from halo 5. I as far as the graphics go the second trailer they uploaded which has better textures looks great for a big open world running at full 60 fps

MS has just changed the industry by putting all of the 'e3' event games on Gamepass. And yet, all we see is complaints about the graphics on an unreleased game.

WTF happened to gamers/people?

Halo Infinite is being developed by 343i, the same people who released Halo 5, the best graphics of any halo. The same Halo 5 that had worse graphics pre-release during the beta and then had great graphics at launch and even better once the Xbox One X came out.

Since when do the graphics of a pre-release trailer make or break the game? I've literally seen people say, right here on Zig Forums, that they will not play Halo Infinite because they didn't like the graphics of the trailer.

Meanwhile, MS has just literally changed the game industry with gamepass. No longer do we have to pick and choose which games to play after seeing the big 'e3' trailers. We can simply play 100% of them. This results in the best value in gaming history for any console release of all time.

Digital foundry just released a video showing it was mostly shitty lighting
youtu.be/KnQd6W9BxLg

Didn't the internet just have an uproar about potential $70 games for next gen? And then MS comes out with the best value in gaming history and...crickets?

And now people try to change the narrative to 'quality over quantity' in response to all those games being on gamepass. Why is there any doubt that myself and millions of others will spend at least 100 hours in Avowed, or beat Halo Infinite at least twice, plus spend countless hours in halo multiplayer. Or that millions of people will play the hell out of the new Fable, or any of the games shown at the event.

Where is this massive anti-xbox narrative coming from and why is it being allowed to spread? It's not justified in any sense and it hurts a lot more than just xbox, it also hurts developers and the game industry in general, for literally no gains. And further, why didn't the internet pick apart Sony's PS5 event in the same fashion? Where are these 'fable is going to be an MMO' or 'Halo multiplayer isn't coming out at launch' false rumors come from...and why? Why are there no similar rumors being made about PS5? Doesn't this just confirm the massive bias against MS and Xbox?

So, how about we start talking about the mic drop moment that is Gamepass or the incredibly fun looking games we'll get to play on XSX?
Isn't there a pandemic going on with highest unemployment in 100 years? And still the massive value that MS has given us is not top page news?

The fact that the graphics aren't very good aside,
>sprint
>open world (although if it's open ended it could be cool like metro exodus)
>pilot's a faggot
>they didn't completely get rid of the old artstyle
>shitty 'military' personality from the chief instead of walking one-liners from 2/3 trailers
>hexagons = future bullshit
>upgrades
>halo doesn't look natural
>gun bloat in the trailer, most of them played the same. plasma shouldn't have been used effectively against flesh
>soundtrack is just marty's good stuff slowed down (and worsened in the process)
>also no marty
>clamber
But hey, maybe it'll work. At least it's already a massive improvement over 5.

This, the game looks great Zig Forums complains for the sake of complaining.

Me and my friends all agreed it looks like ass

It was actually 4k which was part of the problem. Going for such a resolution at 60 is probably why the LOD pop in was so bad. It also might be why certain visual features were absent.

4k has and always will be a big fat meme. More so now in the age of DLSS 2.0 and other reconstruction techniques. It’s better to spend those frames you save from going native 4k on next gen visual features like ray tracing or literally anything else.

I think it looks fine aside from texture issues. Optimistic, but we still need to see more.

No one hates it, a helluva lot of people are excited, people are just demanding to see the game ran as it should have been from the beginning, with current next gen technology.

>DLSS 2.0
If only AMD figured out how to do tensor cores. That will probably never happen though., so the only way we'll actually enter the age of DLSS is if Nvidia actually becomes a monopoly.

As someone who's actually interested in Infinite, the graphics matter because they're just bad enough where it's inexcusable and in some cases egregiously ugly (distant terrain/objects). I don't really have a problem with the art style or anything, some stuff really just does look bad due to poor texturing and lighting

About the industry, I think everyone has just become really jaded and expects the worst anyway? I totally agree with you though, people should refuse this but they won't because they want to play games more than they want to boycott and send a message

I've seen people saying they would rather the game be 30 fps and look better

>160 GB

Most of Zig Forums shitposting is more or less valid cherrypicking, like the pistol size being ridiculous knowing how tall and huge Spartans are, but the game overall looks passable.
Shitposting aside, from a company given such a huge budget, resources, and development time, the reveal felt really underwhelming.
It feels like they only started actual development last year. That, and the artistic direction makes it look more like a children-friendly Halo game, with that plastic feel to everything.
Also, I don't recall seeing blood in the trailer. Is there actual blood in Infinite?

MS seems to think that DirectML will be comparable for the Xbox

Just based on 343’s track record it probably won’t be great. But I’m always rooting for games to be good

sprint
hitmarkers
clamber
slide
butt ugly textures
terrible skyboxes and lighting
banished look more like cabal than banished

Why exactly should I be exited about this as a HALO fan?

Shill hands types this post. I’ll make it easy for you because you’re obviously upset your marketing strategy hasn’t worked at all.
NO GAMES NO BUZZ
Simple as.

I never got in to the halo series and even i as a xbox user could tell that the textures were bland, animations were janky and the gameplay was generic. Kind of embarrassing desu.

>It's hard to tell how much of the hate is real or just shit posting
90% of it is just shitposting; genuine retards who need a superficial sense of validation and attention by being reactionary and contrarian while anonymous. The other 10% comes from people who expect the worst from the developers of halo infinite based on past experiences, but based on what we've seen so far I'd say it's pretty inarguable that the game looks objectively well made. It's going to be a good game.

People are mocking the graphics but the real problem is it's literally Far Cry: Halo

How are you excited for Halo: Infinite? 343i has a proven track record of making nothing but fucking shit

>Halo 4: fucking awful in both story and gameplay
>Halo 5: they somehow fucked up harder then Halo 4
>Spartan Assault: a completely shit twin sticks shooter no one asked for
>Spartan Strike A SEQUEL TO THE GAME NO ONE ASKED FOR OR PLAYED
>The MCC: they somehow fucked this up
>The MCC second try: THEY FUCKED UP AGAIN

how, HOW do you have any faith in them

No it wont work. It'll suck just like 4 and 5 did. Sprint alone is enough for me not to buy it. And that sparth cunt in charge of the artstyle clearly hasn't learned a damn thing.

it's in 4k bro how could it be bad haha

didn't adress the trees

its 99% playstation people falseflagging and dislike bombing

Even then, the Magnum pistol looks huge, too.

I think halo 4 has a nice story and halo 5 has great multiplayer, and I've been having a blast playing halo mcc on pc.

I want xbox to succeed over sony but holy shit why are people defending this?

I'm getting a PS5 just to spite Microsoft for thinking that god-awful game was good enough to show to anybody. And this is months from release, meaning this is 100% the finished product. Fuck you Microsoft. Fuck you 343. Fuck you Phil "Give away our whole library to PC pirates" Spencer.

It looks like crap but the gameplay looks better then 5. Not enough to get an xbox.

It really feels like that, but I ontop of all of the sudden backlash of gamepass saying gamepass is shit I don't get it

>No one hates it
how do you know?

Looks like Halo Skylanders
plays like ubisoft open world game #4380847

The gameplay looked really boring to me. It didn't seem like there was anything there that couldn't be accomplished on the original Xbox. Even the grappling hook looked completely flaccid - just way too slow to be fun, at least in my opinion.

Halo 4's story is fucking retarded

I mean the footage did look like a 360 game.
also why even have the pistol if it's not going to be the beast Halo 1 overpowered monster

I'm pissed at how weak the guns sound. Listen to this:
youtube.com/watch?v=AWKKHpgCam4
And compare it to what we got in the demo.

Graphically it looks like shit but gameplay wise I think it looks pretty good

Looks up the Gears 5 demo and then the release version. I'm not bullshiting when I say this but I work in game development and the last thing to get polished is graphics.

Those people deserve the rope.
Make it 1080p @ 120fps

cautiously optimistic about the gameplay
hate the visuals

better off than halo 4 and 5 at least

Just bought Halo 3 for PC, all the Halo I need bruv

Sacrifices must be made if you want to play a game at 60+ fps and 4K resolution.h Gpu can do be 4K/60 on medium-high but I have to downgrade the res to 1440p to play on ultra-max at 144. Honestly 4K on my 43” monitor is a better experience for anything other than competitive shooters where low graphics and high fps is a gameplay advantage

Those people also probably can’t tell the difference between 30, 60, and 120 and think HDR means over saturation is good.

If you think any part of that demo looked good you are simply a retarded faggot

343i is an absolute garbage dev team. theyre seriously fucking trash

>i-its the lighting! Theyll patch it!

Delusional

-t
Halo original trilogy chad

I liked the gameplay but i know the open world objectives are going to be the same ubisoft shit we've seen a million times before.

yeah theyll overhaul the art direction and make it look not like a 360 game in 4 months

500 million US dollars. this is what were getting

im laughing at you

I also like the original trilogy and think Infinite might be okay. Don't think it will be as good, for sure, but maybe okay

And nobody believes they're gonna patch anything, I'm sure the game will look exactly as bad as that demo on release

I’m excited. I enjoy halo and I am going to play this

The people complaining were never going to play it. It’s all Snoys who want to justify 30 FPS on weaker hardware. We don’t know what any PS5 game actually looks like. And if it’s “well I WOULD play it if it didn’t look like Shit!!!” Is the response they never wanted to play halo anyways.
