So yeah! I recently finished the Battle Pass, amazing content in it not gonna lie, the rakshasa core is bonkers! Cool design and stuff but yeah I just took my spartan a few pictures to kinda say goodbye to Infinite until the next season arrives! And talking about that, MWII is coming in october so yeah, I will be playing it for the first months after it launches AT LEAST! I don’t know when I will return to Infinite, if MW2 is bonkers and Infinity Ward and all those studios working on it DO DELIVER I may even forget Infinite even EXISTS LMAO! so yeah, please 343i, PLEASE STEP UP YOUR GAME. The gameplay is so CLEAN (minus desync lol!!) I just really don’t have anything to go back and grind for (maybe just picking up something from the store? THANKS FOMO!!) and after finishing the game pass I just don’t get the motivation to play lmao, I’m pretty sure in MW2 I will be grinding them ranks and mastery camos for a LOT OF TIME. And since the way they handled their post-launch content in MW2019 was almost perfect, maybe the numbers company can learn something about roadmaps and seasons lol!!
So yeah! What do y’all think? Is Halo Infinite able to compete with MW2 and other shooters? How could 343i step it up?
Peace!!

But you aren’t going to be here for The Yappening event, the ODST stuff for the Rakshasa armor, or the Locus or Morrigan packs!

Don’t forget the last part of Fracture Entrenched.

True! thanks for reminding me
Check in once a week or so. Check the events. Some of the weekly’s are worth grinding for. Especially the fracture events. The tenrai event was worth finishing and the current fracture seems worth it, too.

I’m playing through the campaign again, so I typically find out pretty quick if a new event is out.
I personally am really looking forward to the Yappening. He was the best leader in HW2, and I’m eager to see what manner of shenanigans ensue.
I may not check the game, but I am constantly checking both twitter and youtube, that way I won’t miss a thing!

So i’m not one to normally go on forums, but i really need to emphasize the point these posts make. i bought the first and second passes. finished each pass in a few weeks’ time and had absolutely 0 incentive to play any more multiplayer outside of a whim. the fomo events aren’t worth a second look, i don’t like the practice so if its happening when im on great but if im not on, im not returning for it. i hope 343 actually reads these. i really have stuck by halo forever. but after beating the campaign on every difficulty and having no real progression in multiplayer, i have to say… mcc is more attractive than infinite… and that’s a yoinking shame… i want infinite to succeed so much but if i ever ask a friend to play they look at what they say is halo with ea levels of monetization and content. that’s not a good thing… i have absolutly no reason to think of to play halo, i have other games that reward me for playing, not actively lower my xp amount and cap off what i can earn… please if anyone is actually listening… content is a problem but incentive to actually play is essential, and its not there imo.

Halo Infinite was designed as a free to play game. Free to Play games are primarily just a skeleton of the said game. Then each Season/Series/Operation/whatever BS title they put on it after the launch is suppose to add more and more flesh until you have a completed game. Somehow companies today have completely duped a lot of players into thinking that this market scheme is the future of online gaming. And it probably will be, if people keep tossing a dollar here and a dollar there at pointless cosmetics that use to be given to players for free simply just for playing and supporting the game’s online community. The only drawback to the old model was you had to have dedicated fans who were willing to pay $60 for the game at launch. People don’t trust companies anymore to dish out that kind of money, so they’d rather get a watered down free version instead. It will take about six or seven Seasons but Infinite will eventually be a completed game by then, I’m sure of it. I’m not so sure how the campaign will turn out though.
A good rule of thumb to remember is if the product is free… there is always a reason why and you usually end up getting exactly what it is worth.
