Let's talk lighting

Games Halo 5: Guardians

Just curious as to what you guys think about the game’s lighting?

Personally, while I love the BETA so far, I believe H5:G needs some lighting improvements. There are times when the lighting seems to be overdone and/or overwhelming. For example, lights seem to create an obnoxious glare at times, such as when your wielding the prophets bane or when your walking through the Blue or Red bases on Truth and Empire. In addition, the lighting seems to change tints. During gameplay the character models fit the environment fairly well, but during the teams post-match animations (aka when Spartans “bro out”) the lighting just looks like pure crap on the player models, and makes their armor look like bland, cheap plastic. It’s hard to put my finger on it but the game dosn’t seem to contrast well between light and dark.

Idk this could just be me being nit-picky.
Anyways, what are your thoughts on the games lighting?

Also, is the game running at 1080 or 720?

We are in the Beta, of course the lighting is not perfect at the moment. The lighting on Truth seems to be unfinished. But right now I think the map lighting is great. They still have plenty of time to improve the lighting, to not make it too bright or too boring. The thing that I am happy about H5 lighting is it’s real time.
The game is 720p, but at the full release it won’t be 720p. We don’t know.

The Beta is 720p 60FPS. I don’t think they are concentrating on lighting too much right now. That is stuff they will most likely work on later in the final tweaks. Gameplay is more important for the Beta and its what we should focus on.
