On the topic of Waypoint - while this isn’t an old feature, how cool would it be to have MCC Exchange and Challenge info listed on Waypoint?
Imagine being able to monitor your challenge progress here, just like Infinite, and how we did with Halo Wars 2! And to unlock items using our SP as well, just like you could buy req packs for H5.
Somehow 343 made a darkmode version of waypoint that looks worse than the flashbang lightmode that old waypoint was. Plus the removed functionality. I wanted to get a dopamine boost from checking out my old spartan company and messaging everyone in it for a Halo Infinite get-together, just to find it was erased. Some community live service game this is.
It doesn’t even track my stats properly. Apparently, I have a win rate in Infinite of 14% out of nearly 1000 matches, and have only ever won 1 game of Stockpile – with a grand total of 3 power seeds collected for the gamemode. Meanwhile, I have a screenshot on my Xbox that shows I deposited 13 seeds in a single game, and my team unsurprisingly won that match. This might come as a shock, but I know I’ve won more than that one match, because I won another Stockpile match that same day.
I don’t think there’s anything in particularly that I like more. Certainly not enough to have done away with what there was.
