I don’t know if Microsoft forced 343 to launch in Winter 2021 or not, but the fact remains that this game is hilariously incomplete. No staple game modes like Infection, Grifball, Firefight and other classics, no playable Elites, and other features like Forge and Campaign Co-op at launch is a massive letdown for long time fans of the series and we all thought that after how bad Halo 5’s launch was that a similar launch wouldn’t happen again. Now I’m gonna avoid talking bout the horrible store and microtransactions too much cause that horse is still getting beaten even after death, but those things make the severe lack of content even more noticeable and makes the game even worse on top of the server issues especially with BTB.
With that out of the way, now we have to get 343 to fix these issues as fast as they efficiently can so we can get this game to be the best it can be and we need to do it constructively and have a cool head about this even though it’s hard. It truly is tragic cause Halo Infinite at its core is a great game. It’s just being dragged down by so many issues like the microtransactions/store and the lack of content and features that past Halo games like 3 and Reach had at launch.
