XboxEra Community Hangout |OT3| Setting Low Expectations

I agree with what you say but I dont think so that will be shown at E3 means the mechanics and all the stuff. I feel we will get a fresh look at the updated visuals and they will finally reveal the multiplayer with some new modes that will go along with it.

Maybe we will get a date for multiplayer beta.

I feel they will drop feed infos and videos till launch. E3 is not going to the last showcase. All the previous Halo games have only had one single showing at E3.

Yeah Iā€™ve got the feeling they will announce the beta. According to Jez, the game has been in flighting under very tight NDA for a while now.

Personally I just want to have a look at the updated visuals running on a video not still images. Other stuff I am fine without having a look at it. I just want to experience the game going blindly without any expectations.

ā€œObsidian, however, could appear in a big way. Iā€™ve been told conflicting information about the possibility of Avowed being at the show, which is Obsidianā€™s first-person RPG set in the Pillars of Eternity universe, making me think thereā€™s a 50/50 chance we could see something on it. Iā€™ve also been told that, surprisingly, Outer Worlds 2 may be announced. Grounded has also been cited for a potential content showcase, ddetailing some big upcoming new features.ā€

Oh God my mistake went into the wrong Thread again, I will continue in the E3 one.

Lets funnel all this talk to the E3 thread before Brit gets a stroke and we get a green message from the mods.

I hope so much they decide to do this. Because weā€™ll get our first real look at a Xbox Series game (as far as I know hasnā€™t been announced for X1) which is long overdue tbh, haha. But most importantly we get to see what Obsidianā€™s new AAA RPG looks like, and as I said before it shows real confidence too. Confidence in showing something that is still not coming soon (unless itā€™s planned for next year, would be the ultimate surprise) and also that they donā€™t mind at all revealing multiple, big and different RPGs in one show. Thereā€™s truly nothing wrong with that.

The conflicting reports are interesting, can go both ways. Maybe MS is like ā€œletā€™s keep this one for XO or TGAā€, so that they have a big reveal and presence there too. Itā€™s something we have to take into account.

This! So much This. Itā€™s an obvious no win situation when it comes to what gamers supposedly want. (letā€™s be honest, 99.9% of the time they donā€™t know)

Truth be told gamepaly wise i loved what i saw of Infinite. Gave me major Combat Evolved vibes and i was far less concerned with graphic fidelity than gameplay when it comes to Halo.

A ā€œHalo ass Haloā€ game sounds amazing to me and i canā€™t wait to see what they show off!

If Obsidian show both Avowed and The Outer worlds 2 that would be crazy AF

Did you forget that we are in the Summer Topic Mess? :joy:

STOP SCROLLING AND PLEASE READ

Netizens of XboxEra, please see below a list of questions to be reviewed for a betting special for everyone on the forum. The idea is to have a mix of relatively-simple yes/no, over/under, or game-specific questions that will be put into polls in a new thread sometime this week.

Please let me know if any over/under bars seem off-base, questions are downright bad, or if you have any good questions youā€™d like to include. Iā€™m hoping I can scrap some of mine and add some of yours.

I wanted to make the questions a mix of obvious ā€œmeat of the presentationā€ questions, some around specific games, and most importantly, goofy predictions. Please let me know if you have any good ideas and Iā€™ll likely incorporate them.
