3.5 months in and 343 should be ashamed

Can every single one of them who thought out the challenge progression system…

Scratch that…

Can them all for thinking it was appropriate to release this game with this much lack of content.

343 is a joke bro.

Gonna go play destiny.

If there’s bugged quests they’re fixed within a week on a hot fix but there hasn’t been one for a while.

PVP is fine and they’re adding maps again this year, remember when Bungie was with Activision they were a much smaller studio and had two in house support studios from Activison helping them out.

Loosing out on some planets suck or vaulting them is a bummer but they upgraded the engine for the new consoles and having to update old content would require much more manpower for testing and result in less new content. ( Frankly I don’t believe this my theory is because Xbox One and PS4 are underpowered and have been since they launched) The game took up to 5 minutes to load in on a PS4 or a base Xbox One.

A bit longer than 3.5 months… games been out since November 2021… it’s March 2022
that is at least 5 months. But yea, they need more shame.
The lack of Maps and other content is a bit sad… ive seend the same 10 maps 100 times each if not more.

Literally… they dont know what they are doing…AGAIN…and they have staff leaving. Im not surprised…

Bro, not trying to be mean but even if H4/5 had 100 playlist the core game was the worst in the series… Art-style, gameplay, Halo 5 was truly the worst Halo ever made… It was that bad.

There definitely needs to be many more updates made to Halo Infinite. The Gauss Warthog should start to be ready, and we need Marcus Stacker and Chips Dubbo to return!

3.5 months in and we’ve had zero content drops since November.

For a live-service game.

This is stupid

Your words are complete lies. Halo Finite IS the worst Halo ever made. The art style of Halo 5 was NOT even bad at all, please take off those nostalgia shades!

At this rate I will NEVER ever reinstall this travesty of a “game” ever again. Even 10.4 years from now I still won’t touch it.

I have no more hope for this game. After what Asphalt 8 did to me psychologically, I can never trust any F2P game again…

This is so sad. Halo under Bungie was the standard for an other fps. Now it’s a shameful shadow of what it use to be even though the potential is there.

Halo 5 is the BEST Halo since Reach.

INCORRECT

That title goes to Halo Wars 2

Halo Wars 2 was awesome. Not sure what the chances are of a 3rd entry in the series… not sure I want it now considering what Infinite has become.

Creative Assembly pitched for a Halo Wars 3… and 343 said “Naw dude, we are focusing on Halo Infinite”.

Which honestly SUCKS because imagine having Halo Wars 3 be a direct prequel to Halo Infinite? Combat of UNSC forces during the 6 months between the fall of the UNSC Infinity and then to the point where Master Chief is found by Echo 216.

IT WOULD’VE BEEN A LOT BETTER THAN “Chief was tossed in space. And everyone kinda sat on their hands until he returned.”

Weird that the community can come up with better stories to tell than the devs being paid to create content. I’m sure there’s a lot more to the development process than we know of but still… if THIS is what we were left with imagine what ended up on the cutting room floor…

There is a reason for this.

343’s hiring model is “No Halo Fans Allowed” when it comes to positions that have actual sway. From coders to story designers to artists, for the majority of 343’s lifetime, they had a strict policy against hiring fans.

As a result, most of the dev team members have no love for the franchise and thus their actions so far have had little care involved when crafting the games.

It sounds very difficult to believe… wouldn’t fans create a better product? Somehow indifferent developers will make a better story/game??

You would think that.

But apparrently they were hoping that hiring new people that knew little-to-nothing about the franchise would invite “new ideas”.

It did invite new ideas.
Bad new ideas.
Ideas that belong in other games and made Halo very Un-Halo in terms of gameplay, story design, established lore, art design, and sound design.

That is completely asinine of 343 and Microsoft.

Hence why they have made an amend to that and are allowing SOME Halo fan hires. Probably at the behest of Joseph Staten who came back and probably said something along the lines of “Frank O’Connor… … … … what have you done to my pride and joy? I should’ve known NOT to hand the reigns to the Social Media Director.”
