Ooooooh, thought he was talking about Anti-Aliasing lol

FXAA's a universal solution and really efficient. It should work fine on the Xbox is other graphics options are turned down just a tiny unnoticeable amount.

I meant if 343 tuned down the quality a miniscule amount, not clients. :)

FXAA makes barely any impact on performance anyway, and I'm pretty sure Microsoft could easily persuade Nvidia to provide a re-coded version specifically optimized for Xbox due to the fact that the Xbox is only one hardware set unlike PC.

Wait a minute. It's Halo 4....and Sgt. Johnson is dead....how will he get the woman he was promised in Halo 4 now?

He might not have died....He has his ways...... Nah he dead(Pretty sure of it, unless he really didn't again and found a way to get off.)...... They could have cloned him? Idk. It would be pretty cool if in one of the flood levels you almost die from a swarm of flood in this deserty cliff level and he comes in right when you almost blackout or something and he saves you and then you wake up in some- .....nah that won't work.... Forget everything i just said.

Have you even read up on FXAA? Your talking like your a game developer, and your not.

FXAA uses 60% less processing power than normal AA engines... And do you really think a professional game studio would announce a technology if they don't think/know the console could handle it without framerate drops?

You should read the game informer article, where they specifically state that there is active FXAA being used in Halo 4.

on page 43, "True native 720p presentation with FXAA makes the characters and environments look crisp even at extremely close range."

Yes. The reason being their over rated?

Waste of money you mean?

I'll stick to my ATI thank you.

I have the Geforce 335M 1GB in my laptop, came with it so wouldn't know the prices.

Are you guys seriously having a nvidia vs amd discussion?
If you really have any idea what you are talking about then you also know this is not the forum for that.

While that would be extremely cheesy plot-wise, I'd still be happier because Johnson wouldn't be dead. Johnson is the most entertaining of all the main characters of Halo.

was*

he's dead, his virtual life is over

maybe 343'll pull a resident evil 6 and introduce his son :p

Johnson was epic, but I'd rather have them not play around with the character. He gave his life to save yaddah yaddah etc etc, and I'd like it if they were keep it that way. An epic ending for an epic man.

Eh, bringing Johnson back alive would be like god modding and totally boring



also, amd ftw

**Plays Epic Battle Music**

Now that is hat you can call epic.

Its hard to have haters with this awesome stuff.

I still hate those BR origins...

Hardly seems like Halo.

There's a BR and a DMR...

Battle Rifle:



DMR:

Looks Halo to me... just because it has technological advancements and things can look better... This looks MUCH better than Halo 3.

I absolutely love those forerunner architecture and the new nanosuit styled armor seems alright to me.

the battle rifle looks too much like a famas imo

It was a famas+xm8 to begin with.

it was abit skinnier and sleeker

this looks like an exact match

I think most things look good but the scaly under suit, grunts, and some shaders.

The DMR looks like an L85a2 from BF3 lolol...
And the Battle rifle looks TOTALLY different from any other halo games.... :/ The only thing that looks remotely similar is the shape... I dunno, it just looks completely alien to me :( Dissapointments..

:P Yeah haha i thought i was the only one too! looks like an l85 with the inrv scope imo
Edited by xKRONNiKx on Apr 19, 2012 at 07:23 PM

Although, i'm NOT a fan of the DMR scope at all.

Yeah, it looks too wide for the gun it's sitting on top of...

now that you guys mention it, I see it too


and I always thought this particular dmr reminded me of an m16 with a thermal scope on it from mw2 :p

at a glance, of course

I like most of what I've seen so far. It really seems like the team Frankie and 343 put together Wants to make Halo while bungie was obviously eager to try other things.

The only thing I don't like is this god ray setting. We couldn't even see the sky with these... and Skies have been a strenght of the Halo series so why occlude it? Maybe because at this stage 343i doesn't want us to see where everything is happening...

Also, RROD as of last week. Not sure if i'll play halo 4 before 5 comes out then!

I'm not really onabout the DMR scope shape, but more the colour of the glass.. it looks really stupid lol
