Hey everyone! This is a 4K 60fps video but - you guessed it - we're still waiting for the RU-vid backend to deliver the higher-end encodes. Higher quality 1080p and full-fat 2160p versions should drop a little later. Watch now for the info, check back for the best quality version.

@DeftestHawk 4 года назад
Ivonaldo Lima it is uploaded in 4K but the way RU-vid works is it publishes the resolution from lowest to highest as the larger resolutions take longer to process. So 4K isn’t always available right away, a way channels avoid this and I think digital foundry should do is wait for the video to fully process before releasing the video.

3:43 “it almost feels as if the artwork itself had been crafted to be displayed at a high resolution”. It was. Games are made on computers, a dev kit is just a pc with similar hardware to the console. That’s why games sometimes look better in their first trailer than on final release. Because the art has to look it’s best for trailers, but then it’s optimized and compressed to run smoothly on the target platform... Reach was late in the 360 lifecycle, it makes sense that it would look so good - it’s closer to the current gen than the earlier titles.

Yeah this is actually the biggest issue with the port at the moment IMO. Maybe DF didn't say anything because they were waiting to see if the launch version fixes it. Probably not though.

And if it hasn't been fixed by now it's probably not a fix that will happen in 2 weeks.

Doom Guy sure, but there is still inherent travel time if it's not hitscan.

I didn't like Halo 2 much but I know that Halo's hype and name was already made by Halo CE. That's why there was such a hugely hyped launch for Halo 2. Under The Cover Of The Night alone was the best track in ANY Halo game. Just so masterfully done and it was featured in Halo CE in 2 different levels at awesome moments.

Just a suggestion: if you test a game on PC, you should talk about ultrawide aspect ratio support in detail instead of focusing on 4K, because enthusiast PC players are generally more interested in that than 4K resolution - most of the popular gaming monitors being sold nowadays are 21:9 monitors. You should mention the FOV scaling, does the HUD shifts correctly to the sides of the screen, are there any black bars in in-game cutscenes, etc. Also, you should talk about high framerates too (100, 120, 144, 200, 240 and beyond), not just about 60. We are not on consoles after all. :D

Wide open levels, health packs, sense of mystery, learning of the covenant (and the covenant being together and not split like 2/3) are just some of the things which makes Reach feel very similar to CE imo.

I agree. While Reach definitely has its own flavour, it's hard to not see that the whole "spec ops/squad/serious/gloomy" mood & fell of the game was a choice to cater to the Modern Warfare audience. The missions briefing were presented in the same ways with satellite views scrolling etc. Even guns design were trying hard to mimic more Modern Warfare than sci-fi gear. Reach has definitely some nice Scifi moments (Mission 10 with the Autumn in the background is lovely), but I think it's all very far from the 70's inspired sci-fi art direction, lighter ton and fantasy space marines corp of the first game. Halo 3 and 4 campaign are really closest to the first game in term of scifi mood and setting IMHO.

@itsJoshW
@itsJoshW 4 года назад
I'll reply to each one individually here. Even the mouse has aim assist on it, not just controller. Ultimately, the easiest to use 'would' be the mouse, that is if you keep your DPI low, because Halo is a title regarding skill and not quick flinch movements. That being said, Reach is one of the titles with hitscan instead of projectile, so you will notice a better improvement with moving your foot more than your aiming cursor when shooting -- making it more important to understand how to strafe instead of how fast you can move your mouse/joystick. 343 is listening, but not to random RU-vid comments..unless competitive players bring things to their attention (or the community over at Waypoint). Generally speaking, you have a robust setting for axis rotation and sensitivity not only on console, but on the PC. So theoretically, even if you are utilizing a different controller, it should counter for that. Keep in mind what I stated above. I can't imagine anyone in their right mind preferring a dualshock for an FPS title, let alone for a Halo title. Not only is it less comfortable for your hands to hold, but you would have less overall movement, allowing for lower capability of actually hitting a shot (or rather, letting the system lead the shot for you if you're in red-reticle range. Mouse and Keyboard are going to be significantly easier to use than a controller, and honestly THEY ARE IF you are not some cliche FPS PC player who thinks super high frame-rate and DPI with odd resolution and aspect ratio are the 'keys to success'. If you do that, you will be outskilled immediately by a literal beginner at the game. This title is designed for 100% fair play, as all Halo's (besides Halo 4) are. That being stated, playing at the original settings of 16:9 at a generic resolution at whatever frame-rate you desire, you will have an equal advantage over the opponent. Then, in mind, the mouse at a lower DPI setting allows your aiming to be consistent and easily capable of moving to the opponent without much of an issue (faster than a controller and more accurate than a controller) and allows you to keep the reticle on the head. The next trick, especially in non MLG/hardcore settings, is to keep the bullets spread out to reduce bloom. If you ever play on some stupid high dpi or weird aspect ratio on Halo, you will be at a significant disadvantage. "the aim assist became so helpful that it actually gave an unfair advantage in later games when they were ported to pc." First and foremost: Halo CE, Halo 2 Vista and Halo 5 Forge/Customs are the only halo titles to PC. Aim Assist existed in Halo 5, and that was it. Halo 2 Vista had zero aim assist -- and since CE and H2V are what was utilized for Halo MCC, there will be no (or minimal, like current) aim assist on those two titles. Halo 3 will require aim assist, or else the game will just be completely broken due to projectile bullets. In order for Halo 5 to properly be fair, aim assist had to remain on or it'll completely make the spartan abilities overpowered. There was method to a lot of Halo 5, and it was pretty weird. Generally using a controller won't be an advantage when this comes to PC. In fact, it'll be at a slight disadvantage if anything.

@@itsJoshW firstly, dualshock being uncomfortable is highly subjective. I use it as my main controller on pc Secondly, thank you for the clarification. It does make things more clear. I know that all halo games have an aim assist, but I heard from hiddenxperia that halo 5's aim assist was significantly buffed. But again, that's just from what I heard. I do like the clarification given. Thank you Thirdly, putting in more support for other controllers isn't a bad option. I use gyro aiming, but if I implement using steams software, then I can't change the sensetivety for gyro and stick aiming seperatly. So having the gyro implemented in the game would help. I know mouse and keyboard is more accurate. But my hands are made for a controller. Options would be nice to have

@@teneesh3376 I'm going to be blunt (and not to be a dick but) -- hiddenxperia sucks at Halo. Most of the RU-vidrs not in the competitive scene suck at Halo, thus probably have little understanding of the mechanics. Halo 5's isn't as 'buffed' as many other Halo's. They just added more levels of bullet magnetism to account for the trillion amounts of movement that a player can achieve in Halo 5. It's actually harder to land a shot in Halo 5 compared to Reach, 4 and especially Halo 2. Halo 3 is ONLY harder to play because the projectile bullets depict massively leading your shots, but the bullets curve vastly more in Halo 3 verses Halo 5. Halo 5 was criticized for being 'excessively hard' and 'too high of a skill floor'. I'm also going to be blunt on this. Controller 'preference' is only subjective if you're bias. I don't hold a bias. I can use a Playstation controller perfectly fine when I'm playing, say a platformer. When playing a racing title or a game that requires both joysticks for motion, it becomes quite tiring and awkward to actually use. It's the reason why every single controller made is 'not' by the same standard as the dual-shock. In any case, the controller itself isn't going to be a determining factor as to how to play the title. Any controller will work for input if it connects to Windows 10. It's an input device lol. People played Halo with a Rock Band drumkit before, let alone the guitars. I wouldn't stress that too much lol.

@@Dorraj That is true but it also gives me a better view of the horizon. Just looks nice to me. From what I remember the intention was to reduce headglitching when that was more of an issue in games, and to remove the focus from the ground since most times our aim is kinda toward the floor.

Until it has unlocked framerate and the M+KB doesn't have input lag I am really not interested. Which is such a shame because I was really looking forward to playing Halo at 144 fps on M+Kb.
