P.S. My fault for calling out the A.F. negative Nancy a few pages back. Didn't mean to start WW3.

Looks good, went and preordered the limited edition, the hype got me..... First limited/special edition I ever got.
Quite litterally nothing like halo hype, threads upon thread created everyday all reaching 10+ pages starting nearly a year before it launches.

And probably a price drop soon also.
Yesssss. Thank you!

Looks like Halo.
Yes. When I play games on my laptop and turn on the AF I don't see that the framerate go down
Halo 5 coming one day before my birthday means free Halo for me

Hype levels are unable to be quantified. Heart might explode with excitement.

I may have to jump in. PS4 owner and been craving a good online FPS, not really a COD or BF guy. Why is the Halo bundle more expensive?
The one thing I wish was a feature in GAF was that people who post, have their gamertag/psn listed so that when games launched, you could look up and see whether they even played the game. I'm almost certain half the concern trolls I see in threads will not buy the game they so publicly and repeatedly belittle.
Whatever, apparently spoilers are going to start happening soon, now is the perfect time to go dark until launch.
Halo 5 |OT1/Halo OT26| - All Hail the Conquering Hero is what I'd choose.

Didn't get the memo regarding the 14th Amendment
Halsey has always been one of my favorite characters in Halo. I just love how she's looked at as a mother figure to Chief, but she has created the Spartan II program that has been one of the more horrible things ONI has done.
I hold she plays a big role in Halo 5, and I hope she lives through it.

No! Really? How? Noooooo! No one better spoil this.
Agreed 100%, that trailer was the definition of hype enducing and people complaining about the textures on a youtube video and music choice. Give me a break.

I'm not buying the game. Feel free to go at me.
People really need to get over the whole tech issue. If people want to discuss it, what's wrong with that? This isn't the Hunt the Truth thread, or the lore thread. It's a thread about a launch trailer with visuals of the game.

Yeah screw em! People shouldn't be allowed to discus their opinions and observations of a trailer in a gaming forum. Give me a break.

Are you trying to prove he didn't take a cap from the YouTube video because these are almost exactly the same.HIS IMAGE

Again... are you serious right now?
If you understand AF as you say, you know it's going to be a near-constant issue for oblique angle textures when playing.
Oh I'm ecstatic.
There is observation, then there is just tearing something apart and focusing on the negative. Which between the media and certain type of gamers has just gotten completely unbareable.

Everyone knows Halo is not the best looking game. It never has been.
No one plays it for the visuals. Who cares? Looks good enough.

But this isn't a tech thread. If you want to discuss those things, wait for the Digital Foundry vs. Halo 5 thread.

It's a launch thread with gameplay. I didn't realize talking about visuals and discussing them was off limits in threads like this.
Guess we better stop talking about 60 FPS too in everything but the DF thread.

I'd love to see that feature too. I'm positive I've seen a few Sony PR accounts doing the rounds on GAF over the years. Halo threads and all.
Something like a cool set of top 5 played game icons under your avatar would do it.
I'm still able to avoid spoilers so I'm riding this Internet train all the way to launch, couldn't go dark if I tried.
And yet Halo art has always been sublime as well as iconic...go figure.
Every other part of the video is no where near as apparent as the cherry picked picture, I showed screenshots earlier in the thread.

Why was the Halo community OT closed again?

Holly Michaels, hamsters, and Elzar posting erotic fan fiction for the most part.
The objective of this thread revolves around the trailer. Discussing the technical aspects of the game is besides that objective. If you want to discuss techincal details and don't want to wait for the DF thread, you can make a thread yourself.
I got a 3 day ban for discussing controller/OS/friends list preference in a DF thread, even though those are adjacent features that have an impact on my decision for which version to get, which is the objective of DF articles, to help consumers with both platforms decide which version to get based on the technical aspects.
In short, make a new thread if you want to discuss Halo 5 tech/performace right now.
Yeah this. I find people who constantly rag a game about 4 textures the most unbearable. Especially when everyone is enjoying something then you have that one guy bringing the whole thread down it's cool to enjoy tech discussion but hearing about it constantly in hype threads is annoying.

And yet it's easily the most visually appealing first person shooter I've seen this gen. Go figure.

Yup. People get so over sensitive these days. I strongly disliked the music choice in the trailer and I notice things like low anisotropic filtering and other technical shortcomings.
Did it stop me from loving the trailer and getting hyped? No, not at all.
Did it stop me from thinking the game is beautiful? No, not at all.
The problem with forums is people just pile assumptions on top of you, even if you clarify from the start that you still like something regardless of the things you criticized.
Saying that it's a thread on the trailer and no discussion on anything else shown in the trailer besides the existence itself as a trailer is just absurd.
Don't talk about lore on display! It's about the trailer!
Don't talk about the graphics on display! It's about the trailer!
Don't talk about the game mechanics shown! It's about the trailer!
Rubbish.

I very much enjoy the art style personally. I know not everyone does and they wish every game went for "realism."

I concur. Some Ninja's really do speak the Loudest.
You say you understand what texture filtering is and yet you keep saying things that makes it clear that you don't.
You can't "cherry pick" screenshots showing texture filtering because it will look the exact same way in every single level that has textures.
Even in your own screenshot that's supposed to show that the texture filtering isn't as bad as it was in the first screenshot posted.
Here, I even put lil' arrows for you.
By the time you get to the third arrow it's a blurry mess and that's just a few feet in front of the player. It's going to look like that for the entire game, man.

It's not strictly tech/performance, it's visuals in general. I see nothing wrong with that unless a mod says otherwise.
People are free to ignore the posts and continue other discussions.

It is still however not nearly as apparent as the brick texture in the original picture.
This picture for instance:
If this trailer was showcasing Halo 5 tech, sure, but that's not the purpose of it. PM a mod and see what they say. It was Bish who banned me that one time, PM him.

That floor is just one flat color, of course it won't be as apparent there.

Mods around here never ban people for arbitrary reasons. That never happens.
Back on topic:
That trailer was SO trailer, amiright?
It's okay. People don't understand or are ignorant to a lot of these things. It's not that important, but people will continue to deny it and get upset that someone pointed out something technical.
Game still looks beautiful though. Very pleased with the art aesthetics in this over Halo 4.

Does anyone here wants to buy me a Xbox One?!
I never realized that Halo at 60fps looked so amazing. If I do buy a Xbox One, I hope that Master Chief Collection is fixed by now since i want to replay Halo1-3 at 60fps.

Of course you can see it but in motion I think it's not something you're going to be focusing on.
Seeing as the original guy made this comment:
Sure bro.

The Master Chief Collection is worth it based on the merits of the campaign alone. There are some hitches with online still, but there is still a lot of fun to be had.
Halo 5 looks and feels amazing at 60fps. It's the best feeling Halo since Halo 2 imho.

That's what I was, am, and will be talking about!
If you don't believe me, feel free to ask Bish.
And there's a difference between what Big Green Anus asked, which can end after one or two posts answering them, and a whole discussion that derailed for 2 pages.
