It just had to be on the exact release date of Halo Infinite, Lmao.

Fucking Activision.

Just like old times...Battle of Halo vs CoD.

Anyone know what the 60fps+ tag means on a games Store page under the Technical capabilities section such as 4K, HDR10, Optimized for S|X etc? I've seen it listed on games along with 120fps tag so is it telling you it runs at like 80-90fps or just that it runs at a locked 60fps.

As far Series X/S goes, the game runs at 60fps, but there's also a 120fps option for multiplayer. Both options should be a locked framerate. 

Ah I guess that makes sense and the tag that says 120fps means you can run the campaign in that mode.

This really means nothing since the Halo MP is already out.

That.....idk back during the E3 presentation, Joe Staten said you could enjoy the multiplayer specifically, at 120fps, if your TV supports it, but he didn't mention if the campaign would get the same framerate option. If it doesn't, then it would be a locked 60fps. Which makes sense because the campaign is substantially larger than the multiplayer.

Its the reason why I do not bitch about games.  I have way to much going on with my life to waste it bitching about what a game does or does not have but instead just play games to enjoy the experience.  If I do not enjoy it, I just move on.  I absolutely do not care if a game sequel is the same or totally revamp into something different ala God of War.  I remember a lot of bitching about the game before it released about how much it was not like the previous series and even though I loved the previous series, I am always happy to see Devs willing to take big risk and do something different.  Most times it end in failure but at least they did what they wanted and was given the freedom.  

Fans hold Devs back, always complaining when something doesn't play like they expected but then again always bitching that it plays the same.  Devs never really win in this situation so I believe they should follow exactly what they want to do as a team and execute it to the best of their ability.  If that means alienating the fans that only want another game doing the same thing over and over, so be it.

I bet we all have more than enough going on in our lives, but that doesn't stop us from feeling passionate and discussing video games. Despite all irl stuff, again and again we go back to those favorite game series, it's more than casual enjoyment of holding a controller in front of tv, at least for me.

Besides when it comes to huge franchises, it's a two-way street between devs and fans. It's something that makes games different than books or movies. And it's not like devs always do what they think is best for the game anyway or have freedom, not with monetization stuff around.

But this is missing the point, which was a concern over open world in Halo game. It's a valid concern.

I feel passionate about any game I play being good.  That is the most important aspect I come into any game whether its a sequel or a new entry.  Yes, people can be passionate about something but then that can turn toxic.  I want a developer to make the best game they possibly can with no restrictions.

I did mention that Devs are in a no win situation, you try to please the old but add something new but most times sequels either just end of being the same because to much difference and the fans complain "It doesn't feel like..."  So what you mostly get is half efforts.  Instead new mechanics end of being watered down because the devs are held back changing to much and exploring using those mechanics.  I rather they go full steam but that is just me.

Its the same for the open world aspect.  I would rather they go full steam with no restrictions instead of being half way but I agree it will be some hybrid which doesn't do enough and thus is lackluster for it.  Its the nature of sequels.
