I was really looking forward to this game until the huge bombshell of the texture filtering. Now the dream is dead.

Pack it up guys. Time to go home.

Is halo dad already?

 

[L4nnist3r]

Is halo dad already?

Apparently it is because of low AF

XD

 

[Solid Samus]

Also the time difference between this screenshot:

and this screenshot:

is so small that in motion you are likely to never notice it in this particular scene.

.....

well fuck this entire discussion lmao, I think I'll stick to relevant talk. This trailer is awesome, like all the rest of the trailers and teasers have been. Man, I thought it would be easier to swear off of Halo after 4 and the removal of split-screen. Guess I'm weaker to the shit than I thought.

I'm cancelling my preorder until an HD textures patch is announced Fam

Who is basing their opinions on a single screenshot? We have enough footage to know what the final game will look like and it looks exactly like it does in that screenshot.

By the way, here's your and his screenshot side by side since you think his is mega blurry while yours shows how good Halo 5 actually looks.

They look exactly the same.

I never said it shows how good it actually looks, if you actually took the time to read my posts you'd notice that I've said repeatedly that basing a game's graphics on a screencap from a video is disingenuous.

.....

..... what?

This entire scene from the video takes place in a little over half a second.

 

[Noobcraft]

I should've just watched the video and left the thread. This is almost YouTube comment section levels of terrible lol.

 

[m23]

Saw this thread jump a few pages, thought something interesting came up.......nope.

The first 17 pages were pretty good, though. We learned Stinkles is disgusted by Halo 5 OST .

Not really.

Not candid or sincere, typically by pretending that one knows less about something than one really does.

Sure, whatever.

You totally can't tell how bad the texture filtering is in these screenshots, yup. Whatever you say, buddy.

I'm sure the texture filtering will be better on your TV. lol

 

[shoreu]

This whole argument is pointless good l guys it doesn't matter.

 

[Primethius]

I'd classify complaining about tech talk as worse then actual tech talk on the game itself. In a thread about the launch gameplay trailer. Which features visuals. But that's just me.

 

[Twilight Gap]

 

[watership]

I hope no one thinks that because the texture filtering is god awful that means I won't buy the game or something. The beta was awesome and I'm super hyped for the game but trying to say that the texture filtering isn't low is just incorrect. Or trying to downplay it by saying that a screenshot somehow is making it look worse than it really is.

I think people will derail every Halo 5 thread for the next 2 months with texture filtering lols. That's all. Halo threads on gaf can get really bad, and there is no more Halo gaf to retreat to to avoid it anymore.

 

[Courage]

And we haven't even gotten to the resolution yet

 

[Snackawho]

Can we like.... idk... stop arguing about this? You know so the rest of us don't have to put up with it?

 

[FordGTGuy]

Sure, whatever.

This entire game's graphics isn't based on AF, which is what I'm saying.

For instance:

What If I told you that the entire scene we're taking screenshots from is about a little over half a second of the trailer...

Talking of locks, how do we know when the Halo community thread can go back up?

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

This is why we can't have nice things .

 

[m23]

Talking of locks, how do we know when the Halo community thread can go back up?

I think it's more a question of if, not when. I think it'll just be the Halo 5 OT, not sure if we'll be seeing a community thread again.

 

[FordGTGuy]

This is honestly not a very good video for making GIFs but I'm going to give it a shot, any requests for particular scenes?

Chief walking into the nothingness.

OT 23 is still open, but there isn't really a "community" to populate it anymore.

What does experience the greatest hunt in gaming history even mean?

 

[Granadier]

Most likely alluding to the "hunt" ,or events surrounding the "hunt", spanning across multiple games.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Can't. Banned forever. Now when Halo 5 comes out there can be the Halo 5 OT but that's it. Besides most of us moved on elsewhere.

 

[Alienous]

The scene of Chief dramatically walking out of Halo 5 and into Halo 6 where the hunt will conclude.

cant wait for the advertising campaign "finish the hunt"

 

[Vire]

Oh wow, I just reread your post and it totally does say experience the beginning of the greatest hunt in the trailer.

So basically, the ads are already giving us fair warning that it ends in a Halo 2 style cliffhanger?

 

[Granadier]

#huntthetruth

If the campaign is anything like the Hunt the Truth series I will be overjoyed.

Oh wow, I just reread your post and it totally does say experience the beginning of the greatest hunt...

Seems like it right now. Will have to wait and see. Whatever it is, I'm holding on for this wild ride.

kinda hope it does. this kind of story is too big for one game.

 

[Glass]

Yeah I saw that one was brought back, I think if there was an official 'go ahead' there'd be at least a bit more activity. But yeah I guess 5's OT will be the community one for now.

This is honestly not a very good video for making GIFs but I'm going to give it a shot, any requests for particular scenes?

The superman jackal!

 

[Granadier]

Agreed. I want tons of details and conspiracy.

On a separate note, I just watched that Must, Knights of Cydonia vid for the first time. I'm thinking I should have went on my meds before watching it.

Where did everyone go too? And why?

 

[Kibbles]

Isn't AF not even that taxing on hardware? Every time I turn it on in PC games my fps doesn't drop really

 

[RowdyReverb]

Look at what you did to this thread. We could be having nice debates about Muse right now. I hope you're happy.

 

[Primethius]

Whose the spartan with the white armor? I don't recognize it from the back. It looks like a pretty good design to me. Which is somewhat strange because from the front, I only like Buck's design on team Osiris. But it doesn't look like Buck.

Neat.

Nooooo, it's too much! This wait is ruining me.

Brb, finding a way to destroy my short-term memory.

I think it's Arby.

Does he even lift?
