The good news is that this is a known issue, and will hopefully be fixed in the future, although it could take some time. It’s certainly next to impossible to hear the footsteps of incoming players or enemies. The panting of the Spartans - which happens if you sprint for more than a second or two - drowns out nearly every other sound in the game, and that can include the gunshots themselves. It’s bad news during the campaign, but worse when playing against competitive players online - it’s tricky to try to hear where gunfire is coming from, or the direction in which a vehicle is moving. The entire soundscape has been flattened out, and distinct sounds become nearly indecipherable even when heard through good headphones. The sounds often get muddled together, with music, character dialogue, and explosions all competing for your attention in a slushy mix.

The audio problemįor all the impressive improvements to Reach’s visuals, the PC port’s audio is something of a disappointment. If the lack of general graphical settings bums you out, at least this aspect of the updated presentation is a big step forward. It’s set to the mid-70s as the default, but bumping it up to the 90-100 range improves your situational awareness and shows off the game’s gorgeous, often expansive environments. One of the most welcome additions is the adjustable field of view, an option that’s common on PC but rarely seen in the Halo series, which historically has always kept the FOV narrow. The system was always one of Halo fans’ least favorite additions to Reach, and on PC it makes using the assault rifle feel downright random. Since I know where every bullet should be going, watching them fly off in random directions was a source of endless frustration. Unfortunately, the game’s bloom system, which makes weapons less accurate the more you fire them, feels significantly worse with the improved accuracy of a mouse. The more accurate aiming lends itself to the jumpy enemies, and the often slow multiplayer action means making the most of every shot is always important. Speaking of aiming, Reach handles itself quite nicely with a mouse and keyboard. Whether those issues are worth the smoother play is up to you. The only caveat is that the animations can get a little wonky - like shadows moving at a different speed than characters, or legs not quite syncing up with movement - once the game tops 100 fps, since Reach was designed with a target frame rate of 30 fps. The game never dropped below 90 fps through hours of play, even during the most visually demanding, complicated areas.

It's a marked improvement over the 2004 original in terms of visuals, and it also features new content that ties into Halo 5: Guardians. Whatever its resolution might be, what we've seen of Halo 2 Anniversary has made it look very good.
Previously, the indication was that every game included in The Master Chief Collection- Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo 4-would hit those marks. "So in the last weeks of development, our teams were able to meet a stretch goal and the campaign of Halo 2 Anniversary now runs 60 fps at a crisp resolution of 1328x1080," Ayoub said, "which is a significant and meaningful boost in image quality we think fans are really going to appreciate."Īyoub reiterated every other aspect of The Master Chief Collection runs at 60 fps and 1080p.
