Before you judge Infinite

  • It’s an old demo that will more than likely change before the final release - They showed just less than 10 minutes of the campaign and only a fraction of the overall exploration - they haven’t shown multiplayer, forge, firefight (or whatever mode they have planned)if you want to trash talk the game then wait until it comes out or more updated gameplay is shown. There is a lot more to this game than what was revealed the other day.

IMO it’s going to be interesting to see Halo go full open world, seems like a really cool concept.

Agreed. The only issue I noticed with the graphics was a cloud pop in in into distance which I didnt even see until I watched the video for the 3rd time.

Probably just some texture streaming issues, good chance that could be resolved for the final game.

Can someone clarify if the demo was played on PC, Xbox One or Xbox S X??

If it was on Xbox One vanilla. Its… erm “acceptable” since its much weaker than next gen,still could fine tune and ripen the graphics more. If its gonna look much sharper, more graphical phidelity and not as bland on XBSX and PC, then thats logical. Yet they didnt warn us that this is an older build and such, made us believe it WAS in fact shown on Xbox Series X which clearly was the shows one of the main purposes…

I believe they said that it was on a “PC with similar specs to the Series X”.
They never said what graphics features were enabled ( reflection quality, texture filtering, ambient occlusion etc).
Not a game developer or anything but maybe they’ve started developing and testing the graphics settings after that demo was made.

This. And, can anyome provide a reliable confirmation that it was an old build as everyone is saying? I’ve heard it said a lot, but haven’t heard any direct quotations on it from authoritative sources.

In any case, it wasn’t up to snuff with what it ought to have been in terms of showcasing next gen hardware potential. I stand by my assertion that it looked fairly good in motion to me, but stills reveal that it’s in a very unfinished state.

Textures and lighting need to improve dramatically before launch, as well as animations, esp. on the Phantoms.

So it’s okay to praise it based on the exact same info which has been given?

To those who quoted me. @ Fran, Superman

Thats interesting and makes sense. yet I feel the main drive with showing what we got. Is due to that they had to show something no matter what. Thats, risky and we can see the fallout alredy on these very forums and elsewhere.
Gonna see whats coming in the next months until release for improvments and clarification to it all.
