The little my potato allowed me to see looked like H5, awful. But I decided to rewatch the video that wasn’t live, and OMG:… The stream was taking away so much detail. I know the game isn’t finished and thus it still kinda looks a bit weird in general, but if you watch it in 1080p it looks glorious, almost like H4 and 2A.
The graphics being better isn’t going to change that art style, the gameplay, or the open-world.
But I’m genuinely pleased for you that you found it more enjoyable.

particularly nicer to look at.
I’m not a big fan of the weapon models + those hexagonal pillars but I can dig the rest.

Thank you for sharing. Was waiting for an HD quality link to watch it a second time.
Streaming it this morning live via the YouTube app on Xbox did not look good (also had some choppy framerate issue). Was very painful to watch on a 77 inch TV haha!

Did someone say Hexagonal Pillars? I think most of the models look ok. It really reminds me of H2A the more I look at it. But I agree on the weapon models.

The art style itself doesn’t bother me (the elites look amazing). It’s the textures itself. It all looks cartoonish.

Thats because the Covenant dress that way.

I’m honestly okay with the alien and player models but I wish they would edit the texture to give just a slightly darker tone. It looks fine enough to me already as well

I think having their armor more worn out/darker toned would go a long way. But the actual design looks fine

Where did this gameplay go?!!! This should have been the reveal, not what we got haha
Very cool variant of what we saw!
We all went back and watched the 4k 60 version on youtube, it doesn’t look any better.

It seems you aren’t getting my point.

I would agree here. The designs themselves look very good! Like were getting a blend of Reach, 3, and 5 (we can see examples from all of them). However, yes…the textures are severely lacking and I’m very much hoping this demo is a relatively dated build.
Would very much like 343 to openly address the current state of the engine and whether or not we can expect visual improvements (aside from the confirmed ray-tracing update to come).

Agreed. The art style itself is amazing. The elites look like a mixture of Reach/Halo 2. The issue for me, and as well as many others is the actual textures themselves.
Oddly enough, I actually did rewatch it and agree with you, I have a bit more appreciation for it. It’s not perfect, but it’s not the worst. Given how this game has to compromise between two playstyles and art styles it’s not all terrible.
The biggest issue I have though has to do with the lack of blood on the field, that really takes from my expectations. Maybe it’s gone to improve framerate, but it just doesn’t looke right.
Most don’t realize the stream isn’t going to do the graphics justice… I was watching it from the FiOS YouTube channel on a 1080p tv so it didn’t look that great but I am smart enough to know that on an Xbox one x on an actual gaming monitor that is 4k or 8k will make the game look way better.

Unfortunately I dont think that will address what we saw, I too watched it on YouTube (not streamed) several times. It did look better than the stream! But again, other and myself are concerned with the quality of the textures themselves.
The game looks good, however things like the AR and the raised polygonal sections of the ring look…flat. I’ve said before, I hope/believe this may be due to it’s being a older build. But if this is what we can expect at launch, I will be sad.

Well let’s not act as if Halo graphics have always been top of the line. When I think about it Halo graphics have never wowed me so to speak. My main concerns for Infinite is over all function of the game and hopefully we see an improvement in the story line. Hopefully it plays good as well. Graphics aren’t a top priority for me really.

Yeah, storyline certainly takes priority. I just hope its looks better for release. It’s not the end of the world, was just a little underwhelming is all

That was supposed to say graphic aren’t a top priority for me… But yeah I plan on watching an official trailer from my Xbox to getter a better view versus the tv stream.
