Re: Bungie's opinion of split screen

In Response To: Re: Bungie's opinion of split screen (uberfoop)

: I think you're reading it incorrectly. The article says that systems have to
: support multiple resolutions because of split-screen; if they switched to
: single-screen only, they could assume that the resolution is constant and
: not worry about whether things work in different modes. Dynamic res, if
: anything, has a similar constraint as split-screen (albeit stronger, since
: everything needs to be able to stably change on the fly).

Well, if I remeber how H5 works it has this whole dynamic resolution thing going on to keep it at constant 60 fps and they stated that was the main reason they either cut or couldn't include split-screen. Perhaps doing dynamic resolution twice was just too much for the hardware and game engine.
