Controller Players Living in the Past Are Infinite's Greatest Threat

Time and time again, controller players keep proving that they don’t have the ability to read: “Now before I have ‘the mob’ that is causing this game to nose dive off the face of the Earth, no one is stating that we want controller to be unviable, but more that we want mouse and keyboard to have a fighting chance.”

Crossplay wouldn’t solve this. The majority of the PC player base (all 400 players remaining) use controller.

Such a terrible take… The aiming in Halo 6 is already whack as hell partly because they tried to level the playing field for both inputs. And some people think making it worse will be good for the game🙄

And that post right there proves that you don’t actually want a fair game.

okay, then controller based crossplay. if dissabled:
players will be qued for others on controller for both pc and xbox. same with MNK users. it’l be free game when enabled. and to avoid people changing mid game… just like with MCC, dissable the ability to change inputs when in a match, so that someone wont just que for controller and change to MNK on the fly

He can’t have that. PC users want this game to be like Rainbow6. In that game it’s full of cheaters that use kbm that ruin the higher ranks because that game has NO aim assist. They want us to have zero aim assist while they have their advantages. Don’t let them fool you.

You could just buy yourself a controller!

See, blaming controller players causing the game to nose dive…PC ego…ugh… Perhaps you should just ask for input based matching and not try to trash and use passive aggression against console/controller user who have been playing Halo way longer than PC/MnK users. It isn’t our fault for anything. We are simply playing the game as designed. You need to blame 343, they are the ones who made and designed the game.

I disagree. Sure, bloom might need to be toned down a bit on Kbm. That still doesn’t mean fixing that will bring back all the steam players who left the game.

There’s still the crappy live service model we have to deal with. That’s the number one priority 343 should have on their list.

I mean that’s all anyone can talk about.

Edit:

While we’re at it, what makes you think controller players are the issue anyways? For the past 20 years, the only legit way you could play Halo was with controller. Majority of the playerbase uses controller.

Like, bro what?

How about no? And this coming from a KBM player on the PC. This game will always be first and fore most a console game at heart. It’s larger player base has always been on the consoles…

I know you’re a controller player, but please, for the love of god, take 30 seconds to read: “Now before I have ‘the mob’ that is causing this game to nose dive off the face of the Earth, no one is stating that we want controller to be unviable, but more that we want mouse and keyboard to have a fighting chance.”

Sooo, reduce the bloom on MnK? You already have no aim assist besides bullet mag. Why punish them further?

I disregarded that comment because you and I both know it’s impossible to properly balance both inputs. Crossplay being an option is the way forward. But you’re not even in favor of that. Nobody asked for this feature because we knew these problems would occur

Well, I think what he’s really asking for is mouse optimization.

So what 343 would need to do is add a dedicated fullscreen option, reduce bloom so shots feel more accurate and add a raw input option.

I myself have tried out MnK and the bloom is much more unbearable without reticle friction. Shooting once with a sidekick or a commando is enough to hurt your shot.

since when i am a great threat to halo?

since i play with the controler since halo 3 and have keep playing halo since now with the controler so i am now a great threat.
thats something a PC player more is telling that the controler players are a great threat for the game and M&K is holy more for then.

the best and only good solution there is since day one and is always the best solution there is disable corssplay for good since its only thanks to crossplay we keep having this crap discusions more.

If the game need changes to whichever input you like to use then advocate for it. Players can do that without insulting the players who use the other input. It is :100: percent up to developers to make both inputs as equal as possible. No matter how equal they get, heck even if they make them exactly the same, there will be players(odds are PC players) complaining about inputs. So hopefully they introduce input based matching soon.

That pretty much says that they are scum. Scum: worthless person or group of people.
Since controller player or “the mob” are according to your statement is causing the game to nose dive your words not mine. You are saying they worhless. As well this.

Just further states that. You could have choosen better words. So it is no surprise others are taking this as being called scum. To avoid this putting things as questions is the best route. Also labeling people into certain phases such as “the mob” is degrading. Which also gives peopke the feeling of feeling like scum. You also have to look at cost of a gaming PC and console. The consoles are cheaper and don’t need constant upgrades to play games. And that is were the true problems lies. It not players choosing to play via mouse and keyboard or controller. It is what is in their bugdet. For a friend of mine and I who just got a gaming PC we had to spend around $2000 dollars. Were a xbox series x is around $500. I totally understand what you are trying to say and it is a concern. But “the mob” as you have called them are not a treat. At most a bumb in the road. The treat is money and in multiple ways.

I’m not doubting they have their issues, but so do we. Aiming in general is broken in this game. It’s very inconsistent and you have to strain your thumb just to maintain accuracy or your reticle zips across the screen. Aim assist decides when it wants to work or not Using the sniper exposes this even more and shows how unresponsive and clunky the mechanics are. How about fixing the core problems first.

I love how the “MOB” he is referring to is the THE ACTUAL FAN BASE… You PC players are newbies at best so shut up and get in line… . . .
