I really don’t get where this idea that 343 would deliberately gimp their own release just to look good by fixing it is coming from. It makes no sense. The idea that “any marketing is good marketing” isn’t even remotely considered when it comes to a product launch like this, especially in a competitive environment. Bad press is helpful when you’re desperate for attention, and any attention will do. When all eyes are already on you it’s the worst possible decision, and I don’t believe for a second that 343 would be stupid enough to do it, particularly when this isn’t a wide scale change but a small stop-gap improvement.
What was the first PR move? Shadow dropping the beta?
That stuff is more post launch I believe they have ideas on how to implement it going on behind closed doors
I think he’s referring to them stating a day after it dropped of how they saw the feedback
This doesn’t really fix the issue of the EXP rewards being way too small.

343i is ran by people who believe we are stupid. They’ve tried time after time to screw halo players over and they always backtrack because they underestimate the community backlash from a decision. They are always talking about “player first” but yet somehow always manage to make it anti player
If the armour system being the best in the series but locked behind egregious paywalls wasnt enough to show you that idk what will
Its cool but the system is completely fixed. Need xp per kill/assist/objective/medals and games won should give additional xp. The points should be chosen so that you cant just fly through the tiers but if you play alot and do good every match and try to do challenges you shoudl progress faster than everyone else with out jumping straight to tier 100. Should be 45mins max of playtime to get 1 tier done asside from challenges and how well your doing.
It’s getting fixed, back to gaming Spartans!
I will wait and see how much that play one game challenge is worth before I cast my vote.
Yep, and at a time where the competition was struggling.
My guess would be 100xp like it is now.
Could just be that the replacement system wasn’t ready to roll out but they wanted to compete with BF and COD.
nice. whilst I have not played the game I must admit I am not too impressed by the lack of XP for completing games online. also we need more exploration Challenges such as play on a certain map or something along those lines
Hopefully you’re right, that would be acceptable. Im anticipating much less.
Thank -censored- christ, I got the yellow visor and I almost quit the game working for it. 2 of my friends did quit the game working for it.
A move in the right direction. There’s more yet to go.
Two big changes are needed to get rid of the predatory pay-to-skip (a flavor of pay-to-win) from the system. The boosts need to go altogether. So do the challenge swaps. Both of these should be done via in-game events to encourage players to play, not monetized. Monetizing them excuses the developer to inconvenience players to then sell the solution with pay-to-skip systems.
Not a fan of armor progression being gated to a “battle pass” system but can begrudgingly live with it in a fee-to-play title provided the passes never expire. The pay-to-skip has gotta go though.
Gj being too dumb to link the twitter and instead drop a random quote in here.
Love how they dont reimburse the used Challenge rerolls, specify which challenges get removed, dont remove those useless Boosts from BP and make them random roll per game finish like Rainbow Six does it
The passes do not expire they said it’s like mcc where once it’s in it’s in for good
Not sure you can put links in the chat with the new waypoint yet. I think you have to be at a certain level.
Thats a cool feature but there is still many problems with the progression.
The Battle Pass is seperate.
