Chyros, Tp4 doesn't think chyros set it up properly for "Peak" experience, it's a tricky engine.
The input lag and response is totally weird if any steps were missed, it's basically beta.
From drivers, to background task, etc.
The GPU requirement is also extremely extremely high.
Sniping:
I been having a lot of fun on halo, I don't think it's the peak FPS right now though. I think the purest game out there with high skill margin, insane tech, movement and weapon control is probably apex legends. I think there's some complaints about tournament level gameplay but overall it seems like a pretty perfect FPS. if there's a game right now to dump all your hours into honing in your skill that would get my vote. I still hardly play it though because it takes a lot of hours to get good and I never bother to break into it. Watching my skilled friends play though is so crazy, especially when you play with them in game. The skill gap is super high.

The thing I don't like about Apex is the unnecessary complexities.
So f2p fps is designed around selling skins, and they've chosen to increase the variety of the market place by making all these different guns that do not work remarkably different from one another. And even if they are slightly different, the questions are <why> and <is that fun> memorizing some arbitrarily large list of gun timings/handling.
Conversely, Halo has been refined in the OTHER direction. Bread and butter guns, not a huge variety.
I don't think Apex is a bad game, but having a mini inventory to manage is counter to fps pacing, I want kills and I want them faster, but not so fast that I don't feel the crunch, you want a cookie that's the RIGHT thickness, not too thick, not too thin.
Apex is a middle ground to the fortnite formula, and it feels just as messy. There's also <like> fortnite, too much empty space/ running around. Maybe younger gen likes this, but as an older hughmahnn Tp4 CAN NOT STAND down time, waiting around the corner or a football field away NOT moving is a time waster, I want to be having fun, not ducking.
_Halo infinite is not without mistakes. For a solid play experience, the Engine is just too demanding. It was made for Next Gen, and it wasn't designed to perform well for the F2P crowd with vanilla gpus.

TP4 am oldskool too though, right?
If you've played the likes of Quake 3, UT99, and other classic arena shooters, it should be obvious why HI is but a shadow of a game. Genuinely I don't see ANYTHING that game has going for it other than it being free. If it came out as a non-Halo title from a lesser-known developer, I doubt anyone would pay attention to it.
