343 still doesn't understand a big part of what's chasing away players?

Namely, the very awful and overly done MTX methods.

Based on previous forums, lots of us had hopes for change, since many voiced their opinions about how awful your methods of customization were. “Now that we made it clear, MS will have 343 change it up”. But no.

Season 2 is around the corner. But, still no updates on corss-core customization, nothing on shared armor colors, and nothing on a way to get new - and iconic/staple - armors with a F2P method. Seriously, we were able to get Solider EXTREMELY early in Halo 4 and 5. Now it’s $20?

I know a low of people stand with the “cosmetics don’t matter”, and that’s fine if you believe that. I also realize this is a F2P game. But this is a thread coming from someone who has issues with how MTX works, how even the most “normal” of armors from previous games are treated as premium content, and how you expressing yourself is not existent for anyone who is F2P. I know there are others out there too who think the same.

Rant over. I won’t be around for Season 2. The predatory MTX tactics have convinced me to not put a cent into this game, as opposed to Halo 5’s methods. If 343 won’t even address colors being shared across cores - which is already awful considering we don’t have solid colors anymore - then I highly doubt the changes above will ever come.

Well as long people keep buying they would have no reason change.

The prices are design to get 20% of total pop so 343 would rather piss off 80% fan base as long 20% is supporting them.

I think better plan is add 5 dollars for whole customization for most armor sets and any color.

Then add none lore couple dollars

Then lock lore content threw achievements and battle pass that made halo 3 so popular. Which would still be locked by fee customization.

Yeah like not letting us choose game types for the reason of trying to see what we like by making us play them all … but you whould know what we like by how much we choose something instead of how much we complain about something or quit it. I would actually like some things a lot more if i didnt have to put up with them when im trying to do something else. Id love a strong hold match but i have to play 10 slayers and one oddball to play it . So i hate the slayer because I can play that if I want to anyways!!! So I haven’t played a stronghold in over a month because its not worth the trouble. So is that reading as me not liking quick play modes ? probably. Its like they are doing the opposite of what they are trying to do all the time . Like when they had walking off the radar because they wanted the game to be faster paced…
