So the announcments of the new game modes honestly didn’t excite me and make me rush back to Halo, if anything I was about 30 minutes before leave for work and had to convince myself to.put down No Man Sky and just give Halo Infinite a Quick look.
So I did, had tons of Desync issues and after 1 round left hallways into the second one.
It wasn’t horrible the modes are fun… when things work… But it just wasn’t exciting for me.
But it’s because I have to swallow a tough pill… That Halo Infinite I strictly a PVP game. It is not built for PVE or Immersion. It is a game strictly design to hype up HCS, and Sell HCS merch, while crowdfunding the tournaments l. With the games in game store profits.
And that’s cool if your just into that, but I don’t joy Immersion in games and Halo is that type of game that can go far with Immersion if they wanted to.
Halo 4 almost had it with Spartan ops,. But it wasn’t focused on our Spartan, rather we got to see small clips of some other Spartan team that I did not feel invested in at all.
Halo Reach campaign, styled in a format of Spartan ops, is honestly kinda what I thought they were going for with this academy thing… But that turned out to be lack luster… Extremely hollow in terms of Nerratove events around our MP Spartan.
There is sapposably a leaked PVE mode called exctraction but it seems all it is is the same MP 4v4 maps but with AI… So Your going to be fighting off waves of enemies I guess on maps designed around 4v4 PVP arena slayer.
I’d rather they delay that to creat custom maps for that mode with the nerratove events and cutscenes in kuding our Spartan in action.
I mean when the games not desyncing from it’s playerbase it’s overall pretty solid for those who just want constant PVP… For everyone else well, 343 didn’t make this Halo for you. It sucks. Ut eh it is what it is.
So much potential, and catering to that vanity side of a playerbase who enjoys immersion is a hell of marketing tool for selling more cosmetics… most PVP only players could care less for those aspect they care more for sod gameplay and no desynce, so I don’t know exactly who is still buying stuff from the store at this point.
