Really interested where they're going with it. Will it be 720p never dipping below 60fps or will it be 900p with noticeable drops. I'm not familiar with the fanbase of this game but would an option to have 1080p and locked 30fps be used at all?


Who says it can't be 900 without noticeable drops? Other games have done it.

Which games?


Cod has stable fps



Ltd predictions by the time 9th Gen comes out

Ps4:110million

Xbox one :75 million( was 65) 

Wii u: 20 milliion

I really wish Digital Foundry would go out of business. They have been a bigger detriment to gaming than an asset. 90% of people can't tell resolutions and framerates unless they are told. People who have played thru beta have been enjoying it and the these guys come along trying to tell people they should be disappointed.

60% of facts on the internet are not true.

Games are usually 2/3 years  developement.  A year or 1/3 the time of developement is definitely not that long time.......

The beta is about the gameplay first and for most.

I think you missed my point.. ^^ I said that as a follow on from the previous sentence. Yes 11 months can be a long, but it wouldn't be long enough for Halo 5 to go from 720p with dips into 30fps, into a solid 1080p/60fps title. At points that would require a 350% performance increase with any other upgrades at all. Pulling that off in 11 months wouldn't be likely.

Regardless, Halo 5 doesn't have such drops. It was merely an example.

This was a click bait article, complaining about the stuff they did just shows they needed hits to their site.

i think Halo 5 will flop, MS needs new IPs.


Thats what they say about every halo game ever. It will succeed. And let's ignore sunset overdrive and quantum break which are 2 interesting new ip's coming soon or have already arrived. 


well this time its different, this time its not made by bungie and the install base is much smaller on the X1. I think it will sell 2 million units and get mediocore reviews

Why?? Halo 4 wasn't made by bungie and got a 87 on meta critic. Halo 4 was bashed for its multi-player not  the single player. Halo 5 already has a much better multi-player. Let's make a bet. Halo 5 will definitely sell more than 2 million units within the first month and will get a meta critic above 89

Just struck me as a bit silly to call out "the reactions here" when there were only two there at the time.

Consider it a preemptive call. ^__-

Read the thread now, and see what I mean. =D

I can tell the difference between 720p/900p/1080p or 30fps/60fps pretty damn easily... :p They aren't necessary to my enjoyment, but i certainly notice and value their inclusion (the former more than the latter in most cases though).

Just because you can't, doesn't mean others can't. Not unless you mean to imply that you are a being above common men, and anything you can't do is truly impossible for the rest of us? ^^ Otherwise i'd loooove for you to provide a study proving your statement about 90% not being able to :) Otherwise you're spreading fud, which is against the forum rules.
