let’s see what’s 343 treat those who buy xboxone and halo5 at launch.
xbox side:
$60 with few gametypes, few maps, no forge, if you want play custom game , you should pay for xbox live membership.
win10 side:
$0 for play forge with 4k support forge, no xbox live membership charge to play custom games.
its ok if 343’s halo5 advertise clarify its not exclusive, but 343 cheat us, and obviously they did’t care about xbox players.
for this cheating behavior, i think 343 should refund $10~$20(we buy forge with price with no forge at launch) to those who by halo5 at launch,
because those people support halo5 at launch with no forge no such contents.
and i suggest that in halo6’s advertise
you 343 should clarify that halo6 could play both on windows 10 and xboxone.
ps.
