I have wrote a long post to my friend about this but I am just gonna do bullet points. Feel free to correct or add you own comments.

Battlepass + Progression + Cosmetics

  • Levels should be 500xp
  • Level should take between 5-8 games
  • XP gained should be minimum 75xp a game with supplemented performance on top of it
  • Keep challenges SIMPLE, Keeps teams focused on playing the game
  • Tone down the cosmetics in store. You seem to think player will slurp it up when reality we’ll go the other way.
  • If a battle pass is achievable more players are likely to invest in it
  • F2P doesn’t mean that everything should be behind a paywall.
  • Give F2P 1 customization unlock every 5 levels
  • Add premium currency to the pass
  • Use most successful battlepass as a reference point
  • Armour Cores should allow us access to mix n match (DEMOYEET)
  • No insentive to play post challenge completion (DEMOYEET/Myself)
  • Lower store prices. More people will buy from it then (DEMOYEET)
  • Allow us to colour our armour how we want too and sell extra colours off like other games e.g. Warframe (DEMOYEET)

Gameplay

  • Let people decide their play state
  • Crossplay optional
  • Add Player Collison
  • BTB shouldn’t be long timers between vehicles, quick spawns
  • Fix the weapons so balance is restored.
  • Let us play the way we want to play
  • Gamemode selection down to what game types we are playing
  • BTB add BR Spawns
  • Add a levelling system outside of the Pass
    • This could even just give us a ingame currency to buy items or loot boxes but don’t monetize it (Enialat3r suggestion)
  • FOV problems (DEMOYEET)
  • Audio Problems (DEMOYEET)
  • Aim Assist (The Entire Controller Community)
  • Map weapon Balance spawns (SuperEgo366)
  • Challeneges should be completeable in 1-2 games NOT 5-20 (Ken)
  • Remove Vehicle based challenges (Numerous people)
  • Vehicles need set spawns and low respawn timers (Enialat3r)
  • Grenades feel inconsistent (My friend)
  • Some challenges do not track correctly still (Sherbdog13)

AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD - NO DAMN BATTLE ROYALE MODE!

We have on record/forum post and everything, words you as the Dev team have said then gone back on. If there isn’t any notable improvements coming to this game then I will probably drop off.

(I have edited the post and tried to summaries what we have all said and tagged names so people can quick skip to a particular point if needed)

My guess is we won’t see change till season 2 or 3 depending on how much money is actually being made. Id love an actual progression system with sr rank and some unlocks. Heck id even be ok with leveling up to get credits to open loot boxes.

You can have all of that but only if they add Battle Royale and the challenges are related to it.

Here is what i have to say, firstly halo infinite should be released as a greedy early access game campaign/fullgame an multiplayer cause both are unfinished and overpriced

this is directed at 343, Things need to change, gameplay feels good yes and no hit registration feels off the ammount of times i get audio feedback for say meleeing or dealing any damage somebody then nothing happens damage wise is too many. Fov effects ur aim assist and reticle size like since when it shouldnt work like that right? aiming still feels buggy especially in close quarters.

Now the stuff that makes me wanna stop supporting 343 in general, coatings drastically need to change atleast after promos have dried up there are so many easy changes that could fix them just pick one for example have a fully customizable coating we the player can customize cause at the moment ur customization offers basically no player expression, monetize different textures and patterns emblems etc. Not base colours like what were u thinking, you know what u could even monetize whole pallets like grey scale or vibrant etc. But not individual colours go nuts just like warframe does.

experience earned needs to change heres a bonus fact i stopped playing cause i finished my weekly challenges no point in contiuing to play if i cant progress fairly even with challenges an the minor change recently made its too slow and unrewarding and not fun.

armour cores HAVE TO CHANGE cant mix an match all armours on one body or mix all the poorly designed coatings onto said one body/core, the only people who dont care about these things and say theyre fine are the people who arent going to buy them in the first place.

343 you must lower prices everything is ridiculously overpriced even compared to other free to plays, lower the cost of buying campaign it shouldnt be full price as if multiplayer is included, if ur monetizing multiplayer its not a full game, campaign wont even be finished upon release (split screen as one example) it doesnt matter if multiplayer is free to play for people without it, one fix give us a fully customizable coating and fully mix and matchable armour core plus idk 3 free future battle passes to redeem if the campaign is purchased and sold at full triple A price or just half or take a quarter off the price and go ur greedy ways an leave it be an that second one is me trying to let 343 be a bit greedy.

This stuff needs to happen, otherwise myself and alot of other players are dropping this faster then anything ive played before its fun yes but there are gonna be other games that will be better coming soon and that are already out i want to stick with this but its so obviously an unfinished greedy cash grab that it hurts to see ik you can do better one step foward 3 steps back with you lot so it seems, please prove me wrong. Come on 343 dont let the good reception upon release make u think everything ur doing is right pull ur head in and fix ur game, Its sad to see. I know im only one person, i will have hope but if this stuff isnt changed and 343 doesnt start making decent decisions on this type of stuff i and many people are out there wont be supporting this company any more im starting to get ubisoft and EA vibes from them😬. I love halo. But might just stick with what bungie did if 343 cant change their ways. There are obviously so many more things i could mention but leave your thoughts regarding anything related

If this game doeant change no doubt im dropping this an uninstalling as soon as anything else releases

I’m not a fan of loot boxes, but I definitely agree it would be good to have a way to very slowly acquire store credit through playing.

Maybe we could earn store credit for finishing the weekly challenges?

I’m not very fond of them either but I mean there’s nothing to work for at the moment. How is overpriced coatings and cores gonna retain players if the only form of xp is participation and rng weeklies. I mean the challenges that require specific vehicles/ weapons/ gamemodes are worthless if I cant pick to play certain things.

I disagree with BR spawns, that being said they need to make the base spawning weapons more consistent. One team getting 2 commandos and the other getting 2 BRs is not the same.

I like the challenges for the variety aspect but I can appreciate people not liking them when I can take you 10+ games just to get the game mode. I had to play about 20 games to get 5 rocket hog kills -_-

That’s set as an easy challenge too lol.

The fixes are super easy, what 343 is trying to figure out rn is how to do it to still get the most money from people

All the Problems are Easy Fixes which is baffling

Welcome to the 343 era of Halo. At least Infinite has enough right that the game is still fun to play despite all the problems which could be fixed with one part humility/willingness to listen and one part common sense.

I need 15 gungoose kills and I’ve seen it drop 3 times and I’ve gotten it once with 3 kills. Vehicles need set spawns not the random drops.

Hmm do you keep an eye on the incoming vehicles, I’ve seen multiple gungooses dropped almost every game of BTB I have played.

Kills with it are another matter ha. Good luck with that one.

I had a similar one which was Destroy 5 ghosts. Sounds easy on paper. But reality it’s about getting the right map, wait for the spawn, have the right weapon, hope an enemy gets in the vehicle, hope that you can destroy it in 1-2 shots and they don’t jump out before you destroy it. I swapped it off and got a challenge that I can do in my sleep which was 5 Disruptor Kills. That weapon is actually one of my favourite atm.

I had one ghost and it took me ages, best way is to dynamo grenade and skewer but it’s still extremely unlikely you can get everything you need and pull it off. Lot of the time I did what felt like 99% damage and my teammate would finish it with an AR too ha. That challenge took ages.

I had 3 Warthogs which was way easier and 1 chopper which didn’t feel as bad as the spawn rate seemed higher in my games than the Ghosts. Those and Banshees felt like goldust in my first week.

Like Halo (played since Halo 3) has always been about teamwork and coordinating (unless solo modes) so you need to all be on the same page. Instead playing with my mate he for an entire BTB match was sat in a corner waiting for 1 particular weapon to spawn and then he had to get 15 kills with it. The weapon in itself doesn’t even have 15 kills in it. But because of this he was disconnected from the rest of the game and was only doing what he needed to do. I’ve noticed tons of random players doing the exact same thing.

That sucks, can’t say I’ve actually noticed it it’s made me play in different ways to idler Halo games but I’ve had more fun having a mini objective to fulfill. Like use a different gun or achieve a certain thing.

It’s annoying if people will camp the weapon just waiting for it. I just check when I’m around that area, if it isn’t there and the timer isn’t less than 5 seconds, I’m moving on.

Had 10 rocket kills which I was very happy with as I was having to secure them for the team on Bazaar most games anyway so I got that one super fast. If it was something like the Skewer I would have found that much more tiresome to accomplish.

That’s why I’m optimistic about this game. I feel like this is gonna be a case of “This game is going to be amazing in 6-8 months” (not that it already isn’t good). It’s not a Battlefield situation where there are deep flaws in the core of the gameplay.

19

Yeah and I try to play like that but I know a lot of people are heavily objective focused. These people will just do what they do and try and complete the challenges no matter the cost of the team.

I really pray they actually listen. I complained about the pass during the 2nd Flight and I think a majority of the testers did as well but it seemingly fell of deaf ears. Which is really frustrating. Their fix which was the 50xp a game isn’t any different to the challenges that was already there. It’s not just per game instead of per x amount of games.

And Battlefield. You mean PP-29 simulator 2042
