I enjoy being able to search for a game of Halo with multiple titles selected. I hope MCC and Infinite are integrated together in the same app and available in the same search menu. Therefore bridging the gap of new school and old school Halo all in one application.
That’s pretty ridiculous. The game is going to be way too large to fit on the MCC so it would be worthless to do so
I’m happy they’ve preserved the classic titles on MCC, I’ll always play them. MCC as a whole however is dated, Infinite is said to be a very streamlined game with discord integration, etc. I’m ready to move beyond the clunky menus and such that were an early Xbox One title.
Nah It won’t be part of the MCC but they did say that Infinite will be a hub, kinda like MCC is for all past Halo games (except 5), for future Halo content so I think we will see either at E3 or when it release or later in the game life span.
Can’t remember where they said that through so don’t trust me in case of me saying something false because I didn’t understood it well until I manage to find the proof of it being right
While it is pretty nice to have every Halo game ever made be in one discrete launcher, I think 343 intends to keep MCC as its own dedicated platform for the classic Halo games. I think we’ll see in about 10 years or so that Infinite itself will become a platform all its own that will house all the content of the next 10 years of Halo before they move on to something new. We’re much more likely to see Halo 5 be retroactively added to the MCC rather than Infinite be added.
I suppose if anything was to happen a launcher for Halo: Infinite could be added to Halo: The Master Chief Collection much like there is for Halo 5: Guardians and vice versa for Halo: Infinite.
It’s going to be way to big for MCC. It’s not possible.
Maybe the OP meant MCC being able to launch Infinite like how the Battlefield launcher works?
343i already said MCC is at it’s limit. I’m looking forward to Infinite but Halo 5 and Infinite are never coming to MCC.
I think it’s more likely that Halo 5 will be integrated with infinite rather than Halo 5 or infinite being integrated with MCC. MCC is meant to be just for the 360 games and previous.
Maybe… and just maybe… the Slipspace engine has been built to remain back compatible with it’s Blam predecessor.
Bringing MCC and/or Halo 5 over (eventually) may not be that hard.
Hopefully the MCC is a blueprint for Infinite’s “10 year service plan”. And it would be cool if the MCC’s best bits were slowly brought over in terms of DLC.
A lot of great replies. My intentions were to start a conversation around something similar to the Battlefield menus but better and more similar to the way MCC allows players to select their search criteria across multiple games. The ability to seamlessly play some Halo 3 for one match, then get some awesome thrusts in for a game of Halo 5, and then wrap up an hour of game time with Infinite brings the entire community together again. I am confident the producers will make this happen like someone said in the 10 year plan.
I think that would be the worst way for it to be successful to be honest. I think MCC is great, but the menus are too full for a whole new game IMO.
Considering Infinite is supposed to be a 10 year plan, it isn’t wise to add it to the MCC. Hell, debates about 5 being added are still happening, and that game has been out for a while now.
