You’ve misunderstood what I meant…the unearned credits in the BP would be valueless. This wouldn’t impact any already earned credits unlocked already unlocked in the BP and wouldn’t impact their accounts. All remaining unearned cosmetic items could also remain active in this model.
Basically yes. I don’t consider the reasons or objectives you stated to be particularly serious issues…if other games are doing exactly this and it’s already widely accepted then why not do it in Halo? The overwhelming majority of active players would easily unlock all BP items (with the correct XP system), and FOMO is just something that people would have to live with in the knowledge that they have to pay to get the items if they want them.
Also I despise the store and how it has been implemented, but adding more content to the store at reasonable prices can’t be a bad thing and provides a perfectly reasonable solution for those that come late to the game or didn’t complete the BP if they actually want those worthless cosmetic items.
People really need to get over their FOMO…it’s getting quite pathetic that this is being used as an excuse for not doing something. Event based rewards are pretty much the only reason for taking part in a time limited event so having the rewards no longer being available is perfectly logical and reasonable. It’s widely accepted in many other games, and no reason why it should be any different in Halo.
Looking at how Halo 5 was set up with the rec points, the BP is basically padded playtime because the lack of content. Also, how much of the items are just recycled items from previous titles?
I see, that makes more sense. I could see something like that working.
I don’t have any issue at all with 343 trying to improve these types of systems. The amount of grinding other games require to complete their passes in time is a big complaint, so I won’t knock 343 for trying to innovate rather than simply copy them.
They said that players will be able to earn in game credits… When and how much is yet to be seen. My guess is they will wait as long as possible before implementation of earning in game credits to milk the store for as long as possible.
Now watch as it’s going to be only 400 credits total if you complete the pass. As I’m not seeing anything that says “you can get enough to get the next battle pass”
If they were smart they would have given us credits right from the very beginning, and at this point the sooner the better, especially for them. I almost never look at the store because I know everything is over priced, but with some free credits burning a hole in my pocket I’ll probably look at the shop every day. This will encourage actual spending more than anything else ever could.
What an absolutely ridiculous assumption and pathetic statement to make. Please show me where I justified or support this model in any shape or form. The BP and TLE come hand in hand with the F2P model, and I personally despise it to the core. I will never justify the F2P model or how 343i have implemented Halo Infinite so please do not make me out to be some kind of 343i apologist or supporter when you couldn’t be further from the truth. The state of Halo Infinite and the modern day gaming industry as a whole is an absolute disgrace which is in urgent need of legislation and industry standards to be enforced.
They’ve stated that starting in s2 they’ll add currency so you can do that. So theoretically you’d just have to buy s2 bp and then you’re good moving forward.
I regret buying the season one battle pass and odds are I won’t buy season two. I enjoy MCC so much more than Infinite so I may come back for an event or something. All I have really enjoyed about infinite was the tenrai event. Other than that infinite has really been meh… FFA is ok but the maps are just lack luster. BTB was alright but vehicles just don’t have much room so it’s really just a br fest. Hopefully we see some more new maps for season two. Another reason why I love MCC because it feels like the more adult Halo I suppose, we get to see some blood fly in MCC…in Infinite you just get a squashed hard boiled egg sound when you get a kill.
Again what I said is not justifying the F2P. I’m clearly explaining my thoughts on the crap BP situation we have been forced in to having on this game. If you can’t understand the difference then my words are simply lost on you buddy.
