ign first releases new pictures

on IGN first they released new screens of halo infinite yes from the opening cutscene we got at e3 https://www.ign.com/articles/2019/10/03/halo-infinite-check-out-3-new-screenshots-a-ign-first

LOL good ol’ IGN. Those screenshots aren’t NEW as they claim. They’re just screenshots from the trailer we’ve all seen back at E3. Just a typical clickbait article by IGN.

I literally just said it was from the trailer :joy:

This just popped up on my FB feed and I was all excited to see what “new” screenshots they had.

Lo and behold though, it was just a another click bait article (if you can even call it that) with stills from the trailer!

343i If you see this please give another video magazine or site exclusive footage, images, and early play testing. IGN has become a video game tabloid over the years and I think most agree when I say we’ve had enough!

Yeah game informer would be great

When 343i is being so damn secretive and they won’t give you any real news so you have to screenshot new angles from a 4 month old trailer and call it a day.

I can understand why they are being so secretive though after people felt 5’s marketing was deceptive they probably don’t want to show too much too early but we really need more information of any kind really I’m really crossing my fingers for more information at X019 I think its more likely now that gears 5 is out now so infinite wont take attention away from that

Not new pics, but man these stills are stunning. Can’t wait to see 8K 120fps footage of it on Scarlett. Gonna be amazing!

I doubt native 8k but upscaling more likely but 120fps hmm depends on how demanding and big the game is if speculation are correct and it has open world in it I would be very impressed if 343i manages to hit a stable 120fps on scarlett version I’m planning on saving up for the console and game after Christmas shopping

I agree. I rather them be more tight lipped than a blabber mouth but I’ve been itching for more since 2018’s trailer lol I’m also hoping for something at XO19. It’d be nice if they announced a starting date for flights there, time is ticking.

Curious if the game has been developed with Scarlett in mind and being downgraded on Xbone. While you’re likely right, do hope they’ve actually make it 8K :smiley:

Is Scarlett capable of 8k?

Microsoft claims it is but they didn’t say if it was native or not

I know frank o connor said that scarlett version is being treated like a special class citizen they said the Xbone version will still look incredible

Interesting that he said that. Do you think the Slipspace engine will be capable of native 8K 120 fps if not for Infinite than future titles?

I’m sure its very possible since they wouldn’t have to worry about dumbing the game down for xbox one with the game after infinite

Bumping up resolution and frame rate doesn’t require any special capabilities from the engine. Any well built game engine can support essentially arbitrarily high resolutions and refresh rates. The bottleneck is not the engine, but the hardware running the game. In that respect, with Halo Infinite releasing on PC which needs support for arbitrary resolutions and frame rates, the engine will almost definitely be capable of 8K 120 fps.

But as far Project Scarlett goes, you will not see any Halo game running on it at 8K120 ever because that is an extremely demanding resolution for which there exists no support from the display side for the foreseeable future. There are more meaningful places to use graphical resources than pushing resolutions that most people, quite frankly, don’t need. For the vast majority people, the combination of their eye sight, viewing distance, and screen size works out such that they will not be able to tell the difference between 4K and 8K outside of very specific artificial circumstances. As far as gaming goes, 4K240 makes more sense as a target than 8K120.

In any case, because players expect not only a higher resolution, but generally improved graphics in terms of geometry, textures, lightning and such, don’t expect any more than 4K60 or 1440p120 from Halo titles on the Xbox for the foreseeable future.
