The Halo Thread V12: The Last Thread Turned Into A Bridge - Games

[QUOTE=Fat White Lump;49337284]Go to the US bruh, $7 at Gamestop. I swear Reach was $20 on Xbox Live, did they raise the price?[/QUOTE] I got Reach, 4, and a year-long warranty for $15 last night from Gamestop. Not a bad deal I don't think.

[QUOTE=Fat White Lump;49337284]Go to the US bruh, $7 at Gamestop. I swear Reach was $20 on Xbox Live, did they raise the price?[/QUOTE] $25 in Canada

[QUOTE=Tuskin;49336639]Now I need a copy of reach. Digital is $25, Amazon is $30?!?! EBGames doesn't have it listed, but Halo 4 is $5 so I would assume reach would be as well.[/QUOTE] Call the store and ask, often times there Online inventory is wrong at EA/Gamestop due to trade in.

[QUOTE=gk99;49337273]So my motherboard died and I can't PC game right now, so I figured now was the perfect time to finish a Halo or something. Unfortunately, I didn't finish Halo 2 before it died. Would I be "spoiler"-safe playing Reach?[/QUOTE] Yes, you would be fine. Reach is a prequel to the first Halo. It doesn't spoil anything, it just gives the first Halo some background.

Don't get too excited, it runs like ass on Xbone at the moment

I'll wait until someone does a performance comparison. [editline]17th December 2015[/editline] Here is some MP game play [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=633oyDgsAJU[/media] [editline]17th December 2015[/editline] And the opening cutscene [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4ABV3XoSYA[/media]

[QUOTE=Tuskin;49338924]I'll wait until someone does a performance comparison.[/QUOTE] Apparently Reach has some performance issues and choppiness in the campaign and texture loading problems, so far that's what I found. [video=youtube;MmZiSrYIDfA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmZiSrYIDfA&feature=youtu.be[/video] Shame, I would kill for some Reach remastered in 1080p 60fps, but this is ok I guess.

I have a feeling it was rushed out the door because of demand, people were upset it wasn't in the first wave.

Reach runs at 20- sometimes 30 fps. Freezes, missings textures, and sound bugs out. When its not messing up its beautiful.

missing textures? never seen a missing texture yet, only coloured different/low res i made a comparison of countdown [img]https://i.imgur.com/jjqCIAd.jpg[/img]

Quite honestly, that looks awful.

[QUOTE=Delta616;49342564]Reach runs at 20- sometimes 30 fps. Freezes, missings textures, and sound bugs out. When its not messing up its beautiful.[/QUOTE] It goes below 10 in firefight a lot on Xbox One.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;49341521]I have a feeling it was rushed out the door because of demand, people were upset it wasn't in the first wave.[/QUOTE] You know, it's funny. When I said this shit needed to be delayed and worked on, people just shot my post down and called bullshit. Well, here you go guys. The game that supposedly doesn't take any major effort and time to put on the new system.

Thats pretty disgraceful.

snipper

I was playing through the campaign last night and the sound engine completely crashed. I had to restart the game. Honestly the main thing I wasn't used too was going from 60fps games, back to 30. I'm still having a lot of fun playing this game, it would have been nice however if it was just release as an Xbox one title with 60fps and 1080p resolution. I would have paid the extra money for it.

Are other games emulated on the xbox one suffer from the same issues or is this just exclusive to Halo Reach? I kinda miss the times where we didn't care about if the game was running at whatever resolution at whatever frame rate.

Perfect Dark 64 works fine :v: Portal 1 seems stable.

i gotta download portal [editline]19th December 2015[/editline] nevermind it's 15$

Just tried playing BTB on Reach on the Xbone...don't try BTB on Reach on the Xbone.

Huh, I must be blind or something because I played a full game of firefight, and several games of invasion with no lag or noticeable graphical issues.
