There are almost no graphical settings sadly (only standard/enhanced)

Halo: The Master Chief Collection PC performance thread

2080ti/9900k. Capped it much lower though because extremely high fps feels weird in this game for some reason. As if it's not as smooth as it should be.
On a GTX 970 and an i5 3570k, running thgame at 1440p.
Steam's FPS counter says it's running at 60fps 99% of the time (occasional drops to 58fps), yet it still feels quite stuttery in places. Don't really know how to describe it. The FPS counter shows 60fps but it's not buttery smooth. This is on both Original and Enhanced.
Will try running it at 1080p where I expect it to perform better. Just a bit disappointed that it's not as smooth as I would like it at 1440p. Especially when this suggests that I should my setup should be able to do 4K at 60fps.

welp my game just crashes as soon as I click on one of the options on the main menu. ffs just wanted a quick game before bed!
Does the game have an internal resolution slider to output at 4k but render higher?
No luck here either. Hopefully it's not a weird situation like Resident Evil 7 where the windows store version won't work in HDR with me. I've had zero issues with other MS published HDR PC games (Forza Horizon 4, Gears 5, Seas of Thieves etc).
I also have the feeling that the game does not downscale very well. Looks very blurry in 1440 and 4k on my 1080p screen, and somehow locked at 120 most of the time.
If you lock to 60 FPS it feels way smoother. Something is off with unlocked framerate
Guys, my sound is all fucked up. No bass, everything is distant sounding. It sounds the same with Dolby Atmos / Sonic or nothing.
Is the soundmix this bad?
THIS!!!
Same problem over here. Sounds like it has a weird error with the sound mix. No bass whatsoever, everything sounds like upscaled to 5.1 or whatever.
Getting usually between 180-320 fps on a 2080Ti + 2700x at 4K, but with some strange dips to 120fps. I've seen some videos where fps barely go below 180, but they were using a 9900K.
Not a big deal though since my monitor is 60Hz, so I'm going to lock it at at 60fps.

Yeah bad mix was my first thought. Sounds awful in headphones. No option to change this from what I can find. Known issue though, so who knows when it's fixed.
Yep. It sounds like ass too.
Very quiet and distant, overall. It's like a lot of ambiance sounds are missing, or just quiet.
Was supposed to be. Not seeing any sign of it on Windows Store version. Shame too cause it looked pretty good in HDR on X.
Sound is all sorta fucked up. On my setup (I have a studio) and the levels are all over the place. The music is painfully loud in the campaign and the voice audio sounds compressed ta fook, and then the gun sounds are so distant. I thought it was just my rose-tinted glasses on at first but yeah, seems like there are some audio issues for sure.
If I raise my volume a lot, I can hear some sounds with very minimal volume
Its like everything was lowered by -50dB or something
Very strange, I turned off V-SYNC in the NVIDIA CP (which I usually have on in combination with my G-SYNC monitor) and the game feels so much better and responsive now (felt like input lag before) with frames at 200+ most of the time and zero perceived screen-tearing (if it's there I don't see it).
Using an ultrawide monitor there is like this tunneling vision effect sometimes at the outer portions of the screen horizontally.

Anybody have an RTX 2080? Curious how this is going to run, aiming for upwards of 120 FPS at 1440p.
To those that use ultra low latency in games, it really messed up the framerate for me in reach and for a friend too. Turned it off for this specific game in the control panel. This is with a 2080ti and i9 BTW, so not because of weak pc power.
I don't want to play it with the sound being like this :(
Everything else is awesome for me. Gameplay is so much fun.

Yeah I've stopped playing and will wait for a patch
Thank god for Gamepass
Same here.
Any idea how to get nvidia freestyle running with the gamepass version?
I'm getting frustrated, I can't even start the game with the pc game pass.
It's the only game pass game that does not start at all even after moving it to the ssd and completely reinstalling the game.
Other games like Metro Exodus, Gears V basically any other game works fine.
Anybody got a clue why it does not wanna start? Pressing start minimizes the xbox beta app but nothing happens.
I deactivated all background apps like shadowplay, MSI afterburner and even steam and discord but it won't change the reaction.
PC:
i7 4790k
16gb ddr3 2400mhz
GTX 770 (plugged in but not in use, only for splitting pc purposes)
GTX 1080
SSD 512gb + 2 HDD's
Got the newest nvidia and windows updates installed

Go to the start menu and open it from there. Yes, it doesn't make sense.
sounds like it was mixed for 5.1 and not changing for people with less than that
Wait, this actually works! How is it possible that this does not work like a normal game? Anyway thank you so much!
Thing is, I'm using Windows Sonic / Dolby Atmos so it should be picking the 5.1 mix and making the correct transformation for stereo sound.
Even with it turned off, it's all fucked up, like it's not downmixing.
Try running it from the Start Menu or using search on the taskbar to find and run it. Many of us had this problem and it was an easy fix.
I have a Sound Blaster X7 so I'll see if maybe it's better with the hardware DSP, but I'm guessing it's just fucked for everyone
shame
EDIT: game feels smooth at 120 for me, but yeah the sound is jacked. weapon sounds are fucking awful, hope this gets fixed ASAP

Same here, kinda feels like shit. And locking it to 60 as some have suggested only makes it worse
Trying to play the game through game pass - first couple of attempts hung on the very first little load pop up.
Now I can boot through the intro logos but it freezes / crashes when I try to continue through the load screen.
Scratch that it just took a reaaaally long time.
Has anyone done anything in terms of downsampling? How do I go about that with a MS Store app game?

Yeah. Between this and seemingly no split screen I'm a little disappointed right now
