i was thinking to today and this is also something that is a good inprove for halo infinite.
halo reach armor customization system that for all the 8 parts you can choose and mix diffrend armor type to make your own custom spartan with mix armor parts.
Warzone from halo 5 with some better chance’s and firefight what has more a mix from the halo 5 version in it.
and the custommization for the emblems from halo reach or halo 4.
Limiting crossplay would only hurt the player population even more, which as a result, would kill the game quicker.
Not true there will still be people that use it just like in mcc.
There are a number of things I would love improvements on. From what I know the old Halo games had a peer to peer system which I would love to see return. I think that would mitigate the desync issues from the little I know. I would also love to see some visual improvements. Even though I’m on the series X I still see a graininess around textures and whatnot. I believe the Ray Tracing is coming in season 3 so hopefully it improves everything.
PLAYER COLLISION- I would love to see player collision from the original games return. Why remove it? I understand in ranked game modes but in social I would love to see it return however long it takes.
CAMPAIGN- I want to see DLC for the campaign. It was left on a cliffhanger and if this is supposed to be for ten years I want some DLC especially people shelling out for cosmetics we should get some DLC.
STORE- Why is the store so horrible! There are games out there that have done a better job especially Reach. Why not have it where items in the store go into a vault AFTER the initial release in a bundle in the shop then once in the vault you can buy it at your pace for like lets say a coating being 200 Cr or less, armor pieces 100-200 Cr, visor color 50-100 Cr and then you got your armor effects and weapon kill effects should be between 200-500 Cr or less. This stuff is not hard to implement.
CUSTOMIZATION- Can we return to the way it was in H3/Reach please? Whoever designed this system has not done a good job. Go back and look at those two games or heck even MCC for how customization should be done. Include cross core everything from armor to armor coatings. The cadet coatings are a start but we should get coatings for ALL armor cores. Something else of note please, PLEASE get rid of armor cores! Make one set of armor where all armor pieces, coatings and attachments are under. It would alleviate a lot of menu space. Can we get playable elites please? They have been a part of Halo since before 343 took over with H3 and Reach. I don’t get why we are heavily spartan minded but Elites would be great and if you are pushing this “hundreds of ways to customize your character” point we should be able to play as Elites too. On another note the A.I.'s are cool and all but can we get Cortana, the weapon or even Johnson as A.I’s please!
UI- Please simplify the UI for this game and fix the menu screen for the battlepass, It still takes a while to load. Maybe clearing up the menu and making it more user friendly could help with the battlepass load times as well as the customization menu and the other menu items campaign menu included.
FORGE- Greatest thing to happen to HI but I would love to see a water block come to Forge. Something akin to the pipes already in the mode but just placeable water with the physics and all. Another great Forge asset would be Campaign A.I. The system is already there so it shouldn’t be too hard to add considering we have bots already. I would like to see terrain manipulation be added. I like the placeable terrain and the ability to scale it but I need some terrain manipulation. It would help with the budget on our maps and 1:1 remakes would be easier. Different assets for biomes like snowy trees or just different tree types in general like oak trees, pecan trees and fern type trees would be great! Banished themed forge items, more forerunner pieces and UNSC pieces.
CUSTOM SETTINGS- Needs to be overhauled and come into align with what came before with added different settings specifically for HI.
I feel like i’m missing something but this stuff would round out HI way better and if it takes a year I will blast this as loud as I can because these things need to be implemented and either fixed or added.
I’ll add this to the list. I like all your ideas but I am trying to keep this particular thread about gameplay since we have plenty of threads talking about player customization, store, and campaign.
Lucky for you improvements are coming with season three.
Brilliant sugestion, will be easy to create a good team when your friends are off-line.
I would love to see better weighting of non FFA modes so they’re more balanced and we can get FFA, Fiesta or Teams more often in playlists. So it’s not CTF like 60% of the time. Some people don’t like objective based game modes and would rather just earn elims/kills.
I’m a bit confused about your suggestion. Are you requesting they add an objective-only playlist?
thats not a bad idea at all.
that there add a objective only playlist and a slayer only playlist at all.
that there add all the objective game type’s in one list and the same with the slayer game type versions in slayer only playlist.
and there was also a other thread for some time ago with the same idea.
Quite the opposite - the absolute most desync/networking issues are strictly related to crossplay, so no crossplay = tremendously better experience= healthier community. At this pace, especially after recent update, the community will go back to pre-winter update, a.k.a. almost dead.
This is incorrect, and I have confirmed this is not the case with my friends at 343. Desync is a multi-layered issue, and crossplay is not one of those layers. Games like Battlefield, Apex, Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Rainbow Six all feature crossplay between console and PC and do not have desync issues like Infinite.
Funny because every single time a melee doesn’t connect, nades don’t do any dmg, Spanker/Hammer don’t kill despite nearly direct hit, and so on and so, whenever any of those bizzare things happen, it’s ALWAYS PC players.
On a contrary, give me a full XB lobby, and all of a sudden the game runs flawlessly. I even tried out Halo on PC recently out of curiosity, and it just plays different than on console, despite the same internet, same router, same ping, same everything, for whatever the hell reason, everything is just so much more responsive, so much more consistent, so I don’t know what precisely causes such an enormous discrepancy between the two platforms, bit it jas all to do with crossplay.
And with all due respect, 343 are the very last who I’d trust/believe regarding the state of the game and its issues, they’ve been running the franchise for so many years all of the stuff should’ve been sorted out eons ago, this installment alone was delayed for a year to give them additional time, we’re year after launch and technically-wise the game is still broken. I think the whole problem os that of 343 doesn’t see the issue, they’ll never be able to actually fix it, same way as they didn’t saw anything wrong with global matchmaking and throwing people into 250-650ms ling matches, no issues here, everything is fine, working as intended… And once they finally decided to turn it off and switched to regional the game became so much better, who would have thought!
How does this explain the lack of desync issues in other crossplay titles?
In fact, what proof do you have linking crossplay to desync besides word of mouth?
I play on both my Xbox Series X and my PC, and I have these issues on both systems consistently.
Incorrect; as I mentioned, I play on both. The experience is the exact same. The only difference I’ve noticed is Xbox has slightly more bullet magnetism on snipers than PC does, but that is it.
Just because 343’s upper management has been horrible does not mean the developers doing the work don’t care. They very much do, and many are just as frustrated with the issues and lack of progress as we are. The recent upper management change is a step in the right direction, but it will take time to yield positive results.
It doesn’t, and he doesn’t have any because he is wrong, and he knows he’s wrong.
Wanting to force console players to have to play with
Pc ore vice-versa regardless of what you think of aim assist on either
Device well only lead to more infighting and well damaged the Halo comutedy even more. And again Mcc has cross play options and it Pc players base is not dead.
The challenge system needs to be more like MCC where you get xp based on medals and the challenges are just bonus xp. It’s pretty lame once challenges are complete you can’t advance in your pass at all.
Good idea, I’ll add it.
What do you mean? You can still level even once your challenges are complete in the battle pass. You get match exp after every match.
Guess I will have to pay better attention after the match. I have just now played some matches after a long, long break and didn’t see anything being awarded now that I am out of challenges.
I still added gaining XP from medals as well.
One more, I really miss the levels like H5 and his 152SR
