343 drops the absolute banger of an update and you’re worrying? Well, I guess I can see why.

They’re still testing things and you’re afraid that 343 is going to over-tweak. You shouldn’t worry too much. This update is proof that 343 is paying attention to the kbm community’s concerns.

I’m not even sure if they’ll fix the aim assist bug on kbm. Unyshek gave us the rundown of the aiming situation for kbm on in a reddit post somewhere on r/halo. They noticed the bug but are unsure on whether to change it or not given the excitement displayed from the kbm community.

Everything should be fine.

Yes, in crossplay it should be killed off or at the least, both sides should have the option of disabling it. It will never be balanced.

Can you really call it crossplay if there’s only one input actively playing?

I don’t care about playing with them so long as it’s with controllers. Their frame advantages aren’t that much of an issue anymore as the new Xboxs are powerful and you can always get a cheap monitor. I haven’t had any problems against them on the MCC. Though most players would probably want to turn it off completely. But as usual, 343 creates a problem, ignores the outcry, blames the “low population”, then uses that as an excuse of why they can’t make changes to multiplayer. I think a lot of PC users are new to Halo and don’t understand how they operate. Instead of going to the source they blame controller users.

I honestly, don’t think they do this out of hate or spite. It’s just anxiety or fear. I can say that a lot of these arguments could be phrased a little better as to not come off as condescending or combative as they are.

I see people try to brute force their arguments through by claiming the other side is simply using a crutch when it could really be just the opposite. Me? I just decided to use Kbm myself and my GOD I tell you that 343 was dead wrong for launching Mnk in the state that it was.

So I bought the original Xbox on day one because of Halo and played every Halo since then. Even Halo Wars and Spartan Assault. Built my first gaming PC for Halo for Vista. So I guess I’m a core Halo player, right?

AMEN!

The only people who oh so desperately defend crossplay are those PC players who are not only desynced as f*** but on top of that have the input advantage, and are afraid they’re not gonna be doing so good anymore when put only against their own kind.

Aim-assist my a**, it just slows down the reticle when aiming at the enemy, nothing more, stop acting like it’s some sort of an aim-bot, the controls are god-awful and slow on controller, and what’s worse they differ from gun to gun, which isn’t the case with M+K. Strafing, turning around, horizontal aiming, etc. it’s all so much faster on M+K it isn’t even funny, so please stop with this nonsense agenda, stop acting stupid, and if you personally don’t mind crossplay don’t block it for those who do mind and don’t want it. Giving players options, it’s all what it’s about

There is no ranked KBM anymore, if they add corssplay/input select and you have people thinking they’re getting rolled by KBM and pick to play with controller only. That will total kill off KBM.

@l_HyperLethal_l see? You still have people like this who think KBM has always had the advantage.

Yeah I saw that. Don’t worry. I see the combativeness of both sides.

And to his credit, he would be right if we were talking about games like Counter-Strike or Team Fortress. I think it’s just preconceived notions running rampant.

That’s the point I’m getting at. Add the option to play with your input, with people who assume this false info and KBM is completely dead.

I guess this is where we need a 343 employee’s input. I don’t know much about crossplay. Just that it worked pretty well in MCC. Infinite is obviously a different story with the lower population and such so maybe if someone from 343 happens to see this get their input?

« Disable crossplay input, disable crossplay platform, disable crossplay next gen/old gen, disable crossplay TV/monitors, disable this, disable that

People will always look for another reason why they are beaten up. Stop complaining everytime about PC. Some of your games will still have issues. Skill diff/server diff

People just need to stop being ignorant and learn the facts. I still cannot believe people still believe KBM has an advantage over controller, and they think it always has. KBM is better now, but it’s still not at the level of controller.

A lot of Xbox players moved to PC because 343 killed the brand entirely. Your situation isn’t uncommon.

I never moved, like I said I play both. Your comment of a “core halo player” is irrelevant. It doesn’t justify you getting “your” way just because you consider “yourself” a core halo player.

Every game with forced crossplay has issues and console players looking for ways to turn it off. I play on playstation as well and it’s the same thing there. You’re the ones causing the problems.

That’s seems kind of extreme. I always thought there were a lot of PC players playing Infinite because the Series X/S consoles kept getting scalped.
