Oh, I'm not sure how good the multiplayer of Advanced Warfare looks, though, but the SP campaign looks great.

DF: Can Halo 5 deliver on its 60fps promise?

You are so wrong.
All that fluidity goes out the window when aiming for that shimmering jagfest of a 720p pixel 330yrds away.

what was the resolution and framerate of the beta?

Yup agree. I really dont get this framerate over iq comments. Both things need to be good. There should be no either way...

People keep saying this but how many of the great 60fps titles you remembered really had the image quality suffer to this extent? All the great 60fps titles also looked great and it was impressive that they ran at such a frame rate.
I'll take 30fps with better IQ/graphics, thank you. Halo 2/Halo 3 mp were fantastic and were 30fps.
True. Guess I was just hoping that with all the resourced MS is surely pouring into Halo they would be able to achieve and max out the Xbox One that other devs can't. I will however take 60fps over higher res all day on any competitive multiplayer shooter.
I would assume he means compromises on resolution and graphics To hit 60fps. Let's face it neither are close to impressive at this point. You mentioned game modes nothing technical to affect 60fps.
At 30fps.
Uncharted has good graphics and bad gameplay. Halo has bad graphics and good gameplay.
Microsoft sent people to bungie to make it happen, originally destiny was not going to be 1080p on X1
And Destiny is gorgeous to boot. And cross gen game also released on 4 different platforms. 343 has one single hardware to target. I wonder what Bungie could achieve if they dropped last gen .
Still, considering how Halo3-Reach ran on 360 it's pretty remarkable.
60fps now determines how much fun and satisfying a game is/plays? Oh god...
Gold!
That is like ENTIRELY your opinion.
You keep fighting that good fight man.
wrong on both accounts.
Halo was synonymous with pushing hardware during og xbox and even on xbox360 bungie were doing pretty fantastic things that no one else was doing

Damn, even lower than the resolution on cheap laptops (1366x768). Though I hope they keep 60fps 99% of the time, that would be worth the resolution hit imo.
60fps makes a game, especially a competitive shooter, more satisfying to play. I did not say it is the sole contributing factor and don't know why you interpreted it like that.

I'm going to go ahead and be cynical here. 343 won't manage to deliver a locked 60fps at 1080p (or close to it), and I'll be vindicated in my disappointment that they cut splitscreen for the sake of a more ambitious experience or whatever their explanation is.
There. Now I have plenty of room to be pleasantly surprised if they surpass my expectations and apply the lessons they should have learned from Halo 4 and Bungie's example.
All I want is a really good campaign that's as replayable as Halo 3's best missions.

Uh, both games have good gameplay and good graphics. Halo 4, despite its issues, looked gorgeous.

You cant even have a controversial opinion about Uncharted in an Uncharted thread, to be fair. But yes, keep all that shit out of here please.
Well, he also said Halo had bad graphics, so I suppose you agree with that too?
I interpreted what I read correctly. The suggestion that 60fps makes Halo a more fun and satisfying game to play. You're always welcomed to clarify.
Satisfaction: "fulfillment of one's wishes, expectations, or needs, or the pleasure derived from this - enjoyment."

Of course, it's a forum. What would you expect? :\
To be fair, you cant even have a controversial opinion about <insert your favorite game here> in an <insert your favorite game here> thread
I don't know what your issue is, then. 60fps feels better than 30fps. I dearly hope you're not about to try and claim otherwise.
you really think thats how it went down,lol, so they can make a third party developer hit their target but not on their first party game? that was all PR, destiny was always gonna run at 1080p and the xbox1, same as GTA5, cuts were made on one platform to suit the other, those are 2 incredibly big AAA games and siding with one company over the other is never good specially when launching a new IP, it amazes me poeple really believe everything they see on the internet
I think everyone can agree that Halo 5 is far from being a looker, especially from a second wave of exclusive games, if they can lock it up at 60 then we'll talk but for now, it's definitely not...
while obviously a steady 60 is preferred to dropped frames, i'd be fine if it dipped in action sequences ala cod in campaign. multiplayer however NEEDS to be as close to locked at 60 as fucking possible. i'm sure 343i is aiming for a steady 60 and i trust they'll get there. in other words, i'm not worried based on the state of a pre-release e3 demo (or footage from dev builds in the sprint, lol).
Err they sent a team to blizzard to make Diablo 3 1080p on x1 as well
Like I said earlier, I think it looks good, but I was expecting a lot more. Also, I highly doubt it will be a locked 60FPS. Some parts from that video dipped into the 40's.
And you think I will claim so why? The question is rather how 60fps makes Halo a MORE fun game? The value proposition is interesting given Halo's history of being a 30fps game. How much less fun will Halo 5 be if it were to release at 1080p 30fps, vs. variable res 900p, 60fps...

It is pretty sad that in 2015 a company with the resources available to them has to play the majority/vocal minority game on their flagship title. This isn't some indie dev here. This is THE title that made XBOX what it is today and local co-op was a huge draw for a non-trivial amount of people. Frankly this excuse does not stand.
Only 42% of players finished Mass Effect 3. They should cut having an end to the next game. Only 18% used a FemShep, they should just cut out the choice of male vs female because majority rules. I just love arguing for less options in games. It is so fun.
Wait, are you suggesting it doesn't? D:
A game that is more fluid and responsive is more enjoyable than the same game that is less responsive and less fluid (with all else equal). It's fairly easy to understand.
Imo the people who value FR over everything else is a small Minority. Great graphics have sold a lot more games than Framerates ever have or will.
ok, sure...
Quite honestly Both Sony and MS do this more often than is reported. I would take a guess that not only all first party, but many of the big 3rd party games gets this sort of treatment. Especially early in the gen.
