Dropping Infinite

I mean the multiplayer. Why does using H4’s engine disqualify it when it plays how a Halo game should? That’s more than I can say for Infinite Warfare 2.

Its ocd man. The obsessive need to keep unlocking things and see a progress bar move slightly to the right. No one cares about gameplay anymore

Because they didn’t make the game? Porting is different from making a game from scratch. 343 is already $500 million invested into Infinite. They’re not just shrugging off half a billion in debt and letting someone else work on it for them

I don’t disagree with you, but you’d think they’d learn after two straight botched launches and 6+ years of development time.

It doesn’t matter who made the game, Microsoft owns 343 and Halo. Microsoft is going to write it off on their taxes no matter what since it’s a f2p game. Might as well bring in a dev that likes Halo.

Still no. So sorry to disappoint.

Pretty certain since 343 is half of old Bungie, they do like Halo, but their hands are tied by the executives in charge of them that are focused on profit

honestly? i’d say to drop it. if we want them to fix their game, then show it. if you don’t like what they’re doing, then show it. i’ve already dropped it as i ain’t having fun. i feel punished, thus wasting my time.
if a game doesn’t care about the players, then why should we care back? save that 20 gigs

I dropped the multiplayer but dying for the campaign still, will revisit multiplayer once it has more time in the oven. Personally, I don’t care about customization even though its the worst in the industry in this game, but the lack of playlists, crummy maps, and just overall everything besides the gameplay is pretty atrocious.

Bungie made Reach’s multiplayer so that doesn’t really do a whole lot for me. You’re probably right on their hands being tied though. Microsoft has probably been the one forcing the game to be more like COD since the beginning. Since they don’t want to admit to being wrong, they rather just make the game free and write off all the money put into maintenance and development.

can’t blame you, i never touched aaa games cause of gender, politics, broken, microtransactions, buggy games, having too wait for patches is not a good look.

companies gone woke basically. gamers have been ruined too. so now, we can’t enjoy anything anymore.

i decided to uninstall halo mcc from my laptop. got tired of waiting for it to be fixed.

It’s only gotten worse too. Elongation’s boxes don’t go down the belt making the map unplayable. People actually paid for this fvcking game while Infinite is free. Microsoft doesn’t give a -Yoink!- hence why people are switching to now fully functional Linux distros in droves rather than use Win11.

Is this an airport now? Will people start announcing their arrivals as well?

kinda important for there to be a active player base in order for a game to ‘last 10 years’… honestly even now i’m thinking that’s all mumbo gumbo, smoke and mirrors nonsense

And you came up with this just after 2 weeks of playtime.

yeah. because i’m loosing almost no hope in not only microsoft and 343, but also the future of halo. probably should be dead at infinite in my opinion

halo 5 is awesome. in fact, i’ll probably go back to it this weekend along with infinite!

In it’s current state I’d say no and even after 343i claimed to being looking into it and since due to stuff in the forums where they have made it pretty clear that there refusing to make major changes.

I thought the multiplayer was fun but the progression system is tedious and yeh most people see the system as predatory. I think what I’m most likely going to do is focus on campaign when it comes to release then work on achievements then drop the game since I just can’t justify continuing to play afterwards when MCC does a better job at respecting the fans.
