Honestly thinking about dropping the game
-challenges are the only way to level up killing any sense of teamwork
-store is predatory and they over promised and under delivered in a lot
-most weapons feel crumby
-achievements not popping
-battlepass is horrendous with most of the rewards being filler
Is it worth even sticking it out till they fix it or are they just gonna jerk us around for the next 10 years. Because honestly with all these issue and the “shiny new toy” effect wearing off I just don’t like it.
“Fix it”, and how long did it take them to to make it playable?
Let’s be real they’re not fixing crap with this game. They’re gonna just keep double talking until they can milk us for every cent we have.
Man it’s 343 give them some time. Everything will be fine sooner or later. Mcc Was awful in the beginning , H5 was awful and both of them are awesome now.
H5 is still awful.
It’s a shame we live in a day and age where people just accept games being crappy and broken at launch. 343 knew we were gonna hate this and they did it anyway.
I’m giving them 3 months after official launch to sort out the major complaints and after that it’s just willful ignorance on their part and I’ll move on.
Achievements and battle pass are gameplay related since one of those is a core feature of any Xbox game and the battlepass is the main feature of the game and it’s crap. For christs sake the MCC battle pass is perfect I don’t understand why they couldn’t just copy paste that. Same thing with challenges. If you’re making it the only way to level up you kill any type of satisfaction. If I drop 20 kills a frenzy 2 double and a flag cap I get the same xp as someone who got 2 kills. And once your done with the weekly’s that’s it, 50xp? To keep playing? Don’t make me laugh. And don’t forget about how the game is encouraging you to spend money on swaps.
See my previous comment in regards to gameplay. In regards to weapons
-bulldog, while disappointed they redesigned the classic shotgun like how people were with the rocket launcher, it doesn’t pack the same punch. I’m not asking for a sniper but it should one shot at very close range. This makes countering swords and hammers way to hard especially if they have grapple or thrusters.
-commando, it just doesn’t feel right. It doesn’t do good and ranger or cqc. They should lower the fire rate and increase damage or increase fire rate and spread and decrease damage.
-ravager, for being what I assume is supposed to be some combo of a fuel rod gun and a plasma rifle like the commando is just doesn’t feel right and feels more like luck getting a kill.
-plasma carbine. It’s crap
-coil rifle, while a cool new edition there seems to be hit registration issues. I’ve hit wasps and nothing not damage or stun
-mangler while again a cool gun it just feels off to me and I can’t place it.
-hydra. I wish the tracking range was a bit longer and the damage was upped a pinch.
I’m not asking for a complete rebuild of the weapons and I know buffs and nerfs are time consuming but I just wish they were better. I’m almost not even bothered to pick up other weapons when the ar and pistol are fine.
Out of curiousity, what achievements are you having issues with? I just finished unlocking all the available ones, so I might be able to help as I’m aware of which ones are bugged and have work around or east tips.
Oh my god shut up. You’re just like the losers on -Yoink!- defending this. No one wanted this game to be free, almost everyone, and I say almost because chuds like you will be contrarian for shots and goggles, wants an actual progression system. Players shouldn’t have to shell out 20$ for an armor set in a halo game. This isn’t a Gajin of war gaming game. Players are upset because something that was usually “free” after the initial purpose costs money. This is like if in the new elder scrolls game they made nord a purchasable race, or if in CoD they made all weapon camos purchasable with no way to unlock them. Stop defending this system because 343 isn’t gonna give you any credits.
It’s mainly the one for grapple jacking air vehicles. I’ve done it to a banshee once and wasps twice and nothing. I was being a little dramatic with the achievement thing. There’s also “they see me rollin” which I only unlocked because I spectated a full hog.
I also want to add that the ball and flag should one shot. Especially if we’re back to the old ways we’re a flag carrier doesn’t have a pistol.
And vehicles field weird. Way to floaty especially when the maps have lanes as small as they do. Hogs shouldn’t dominate the match but they don’t really do much either.
Locking gameplay related elements behind a paywall would be a problem.
Races carry intrinsic properties and influence stats
Did you not know this?
False comparison assuming you didn’t know the last example was gameplay related
Weapon camos have no impact on gameplay, but are cosmetic only. So this wouldn’t be an issue.
Again, your biggest complaints aren’t even gameplay related.
Tell me honestly: did you pick up this game to play Halo? Or did you pick up this game to dedicated your play time to a progression system in order play dress up?
Also, no need to throw around name calling, I didn’t slander you you don’t need to slander me.
