[QUOTE=Bokito;51544624]I feel like I've had plenty of times where Halo 3-Reach-4 dipped under 30 when playing intensive firefights with a lot of explosions, though.[/QUOTE]
This isn't [B][I][U]just[/U][/I][/B] about frame rate dips...... Did the other games crash consoles in splitscreen? There's other factors at play than Framerate...

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;51545804]Halo 4 splitscreen only reached 30fps if you looked at the ground. Try playing multiplayer on it and it struggles to make 25[/QUOTE]
Okay? I'm not saying otherwise... Selective reading must be great!

The game crashing is not an excuse to not fix the crashing. The whole problem that they ran into was the game not functioning because of the way they made everything dependent on something as variable as the framerate. It wouldn't surprise me if the other games had plenty of crashes, but they just fixed those during development.

How do you propose 343 fixes the technical limitations of the console?

[QUOTE=AJ10017;51545508]It's bad game design in general to tie game logic and physics to the frame rate instead of Delta time.[/QUOTE]
It might run like shit, but at least it runs.

It ran alright, ran the OG Xb1 models and dev kits into the ground..... IDK about you, but I like it when my hardware doesn't break.
I must be an outlier when I say that when playing on a console it is very hard for me to notice 30fps. It feels extremely close to 60fps to me. I've been playing Reach on 360 this week, and it is only noticeable when the fps tanks to below 20. Other than that, it feels fluid and perfectly acceptable.
On PC, though, go below 60 and I notice it instantly, and it makes the experience worse. Not sure if it's the TV I play my Xbox on, or the fact that I'm not close to the screen, or what, but it just doesn't bother me if the game runs at 30. I guess I should be glad of this fact, because some of my friends outright refuse to play 30fps games because they just can't stand it. I probably would barely even notice if a game wasn't 60fps on a console.
I would've been okay with Halo 5 being 30fps if it meant I could play splitscreen.
60fps is far more playable and and enjoyable than 30fps

I feel it too sometimes. Maybe it's something to do with the experience of the TV usually being at 24/30fps by default; it's something you're accustomed to from the TV. On a computer monitor, though, you're used to 60fps, so when it drops you see it immediately.

It is hand made, and I think it was only one available :(

You are kidding right? You know the hardware doesn't have issues with multiple renderers right or anything of that nature. Oh i believe it crashed, but every game crashes during development. This is obviously wasn't worked on since who owns 343? Microsoft, who sells Xbox and its online services? Oh, Microsoft.

How thick are you? No, i'm not kidding. And unlike you i'm not simply jumping to conclusions on why there's no splitscreen in Halo 5, and pointing the finger of lack of splitsceen at MS.
[QUOTE]You know the hardware doesn't have issues with multiple renderers right or anything of that nature. [/QUOTE]
It sure as hell does in this instance, Splitscreen was cut because it was critically flawed on the hardware available.
All games crash during development? Ya don't say. Do you realize how much content, and features are often cut from video games because of unforeseen technical issues? Quite a bit.
Maybe if the game had much more time in development, but there's these things called schedules they have to keep.
You have fun complaining about something that would have ruined your Xbox.
Ya know, there really is something to say about the fact that the Halo thread is far and away the most volatile thread i frequent. I guess the old days of Halo 3 on XBL never really went away.

I did not realize just how military-like 343's armor could seem when done right.

That's why the Soldier armour is one of the best sets
Pouches are underrated, makes the armour look more realistic in a way. Even the original CE Mark V had pouches and so did the CEA and 4 versions of it

someone asked me to take screenshots of a specific armor combo with EVA , and it actually turned out pretty nicely- so I thought I'd repost it here. It looks so mesmerizing, I'm not sure there's many other helmets id use over it when it comes out.

I've been wanting to do an astronaut-esque Spartan design for a while now, so I'm glad EVA is back and looking good.

'hardware change[B]d[/B] detected' tho
Does the new "definitive edition" of Halo Wars require windows 10?
It's a play anywhere title so yes.
Any game that MS puts out from now on is Win10 only
Alright, my mega survey is pretty much done.
I'm going to test it here before I release it to a wider audience. [URL="https://goo.gl/forms/sMIL1XEg5OCIamUl2"]Link is here.[/URL]
Please answer truthfully. This will take about 5 minutes of your time.
