Halo Infinite Looked Really Bad

Remember when we all claimed the xbox one would hold the series X back and Pedro and the lemming squad claim it would not.?

Well the game doesn't even have ray tracing it will be added by patch,and the game look like an xbox one version of Halo just upscaled.

Is undeniable now the xbox one is holding back the series X.

I agree. From that perspective, it's everything fans wanted (well, not so sure about the pseudo-open world, but you get my point).

However...

Whoever decided *THIS* was a good marketing shot needs some permanent vacation tbh.

I just checked my calendar to make sure it wasn't 2005.

Well I still have my X1X so I’ll just play halo infinite on that. I thought the gameplay looked fine. Yea graphics weren’t the best but I’m not a graphics whore. There was some pop in which isn’t surprising because they are still supporting the X1S. I think Microsoft should have dumped the Xbox one family with these new games but I can also see their reason for supporting as well. They want to make as much money as possible.

Do you think Halo Infinite looks better than Halo 5?

The Brutes look like an actual "Planet of the Apes" rip-off, its like I'm watching Mark's version of the Apes.

Now we know why cows will forever be doomed to play their games at 30fps.

Did you expect 60FPS at 4K with obvious mind blowing Ray Tracing and graphics never seen before on a GPU weaker than a 2080 Super?

I thought it looked great as a fan of Halo 1,2, & 3. Looks much better than 4 or 5. Looked like a more traditional Halo game, which is what i want. However i need to see more on the MP, SP comes 2nd to the MP for me in Halo. But i thought the shooting and guns looked great. The push to a more open world looks interesting... might make me enjoy the SP more, i find the Halo campaigns pretty simple tbh, MP is what i mainly play.

Yea Playstation is in a much better position than xbox at this point.

Not much.

And it doesn't look bad by the way i was pretty clear on my first post,but it is obvious that this game is been held back by the xbox one.

Is undeniable at this point.

Edit. I also like the old halo feel.

Shit i was just asking my self where the hell i have see gorrila like looking animals like that.🤣

Spot on.

Apparently they were.🤣

@jcrame10: The 4K 60 upload looks miles better. Not saying the game looks as good as Hellblade or Horizon but miles better than the stream.

Ooff, no ray tracing. That is post launch.

The youtube upload was at 4K60fps though. Not hard to achieve with it looking like current gen game... it is coming to current gen as well lol.

Held back graphically?

My gripes aren't with resolution and fps or that it was missing ray tracing. It's the art style, the low detail in the models. It looks bland as hell. The Halo remasters stomp all over this.

The gold standard for this type of game is Doom: Eternal imo (talking SP here). I don’t think what was shown lives up to that in intensity, or game design. I also don’t think an open world benefits this type of game at all. It just creates pacing issues and makes it impossible for devs to hit the difficulty sweet spot.

That being said, the game looks far from bad imo.

That is understandable but the real question is why these elements look the way they did. These elements are exceptionally scalable. The art style feels closer to Halo than the last two games.

Halo in a nutshell.

Well for him anything xbox is True AAA..😂

I disagree there. But at this point, it's a matter of opinion.

At least they showed uncut gameplay.

If this was Sony you'd be watching a Naughty Dog game.

Can we start a poll to vote for how many times Pedro is going to respond to legitimate Xbox criticism with rhetorical questions and mental gymnastics?

Sony "showcase" felt like it had more gameplay than this tbh. The middle of this show was CGI after CGI, it was a bit weird.

Wow its official, Ghost of Tsushima and Last of Us 2 looks way better then Halo Inf

Still the game looks horrible.

THAT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE OLD SCHOOL HALO that looks awful

Eh, wouldn't say that, Just a fairly mundane showing. They probably could have picked a more exciting game section.

The bad part for me was the cartoon villain, I mean, saying that is even insulting cartoon villains, they are better.

12tflops???????????????????????

It looks like a halo game , looks clean , big and runs flawlessly, when halo games were graphical praised games? It won't change the horrible PS5 weak specs just because of this game🤣

Both CE and 3.

The entire shit-showcase was a non-gameplay teaser fest.

This looks fun to play at least.

Perhaps need stronger glasses but this looks nice to me.

Way better than that other generic as **** looking FPS they were pimping.

People on twitter are saying halo infinite looks worse than halo 4 a 360 game.

halo infinite left side kinda blurry breath of the wild effects vs halo 4 right side

That Crossfire thing, yeah? Looked painful. In the literal way.

I watched the gameplay and the gameplay trailer on my 65" 4K television. I watched it after the reveal so there was no streaming issues. This game deserved an epic trailer that hinted at the story and a subsequent trailer to layout the multi-player. We got neither, again. On the gameplay:

Pros

- looks and plays like Halo

- I have zero issues with objectives on a map in a semi-open world (the original trilogy had segments of semi open world)

- the grappling hook is fine

Cons

- the graphics are garbage. I've never been a guy to go GRAPHIXXXX! but this was bad. I looked back at Halo 5, and Halo 5 looks better.

- catering to the twitterati who wanted the covenant to squeak and yell. I much preferred the portrayal in Halo 4.

- the idea of Infinite being a "platform." Stop trying to go against Fortnite and other free-to-play trash. This is Halo. This game should be alongside the industry leaders for production, gameplay, story, etc.

I honestly thought it was Call Of Duty when it started it up.

I think it looks great myself and am very hyped to play this when it comes out.

Screenshot from a low res stream of a far away Vista (Which is supposed to be blurry because ....y'know....depth of field) vs in game screenshot focusing on a nearby enemy. Sounds legit.

Lol, what a surprise... thread full of cows. Probably a good sign that the game looks good.

Anyway, to me it looks like it's aiming for old school Halo. Which I'm all for.

I mean, one is using flat diffuse light and the other dramatic hard light.

It's a fairly common "this game looks shit" tactic fanbios use.

Reeks of desperation. Enjoy your console, and by all means come with valid criticisms of other consoles....but give praise where it's due. Xbox had a good day today.

Halo being attacked on twitter lol

Seems like Phil’s decision to make all games cross-gen will prove to be a disaster. MS was soooo close...

The internet attacking a game? That's impossible!

@sakaixx:

Definitely wasn’t a strong showing with way to many cgis, and a ok looking halo... however the new (console exclusive) IP and games alone shits all over the Sony show!

That being said, both consoles are looking to have an extremely weak launch with the Xbox biggest title being cross gen halo and PlayStation biggest title being an Spider-Man expansion that’s shows zero sign of being very next gen...
