Infection, where is it?

Games Halo Infinite

Does anybody here knows why it was difficult to release Halo Infinite with Infection at launch? Or why it isn’t added even now?

The UI doesn’t make adding game types easy from what I’ve read.
Spaghetti code or something.

No clue why it wasn’t added, but that mode is gonna be the backbone to a lot of custom games and forge maps. If 343 doesn’t add it, they’re just shooting themselves in the face and they will have already ruined their chances of saving this game, even after Forge mode comes out.

Hopefully infection is more fully featured. I used to fantasize about infection on a big custom map with a with a juggernaut zombie like the nemesis. That would be cool to experience if they make the game worthwhile and I come crawling back

Same.

A 30 player infection mode on BtB maps would be awesome imo.
And you wouldn’t really need chokepoints due to the sheer number of players.

dunno when… but i’d imagine, given the info we know and vya knowing how 343 are… i’d imagine post S3 is when infection will be added

I have a feeling they are going to use it for a Halloween event

I feel like Infection might launch alongside forge, seeing as the gamemode and forge go hand in hand

Idk if 343 is clever enough to even make a Halloween event featuring Infection, but even if they did, ugh, another 6 months for Infection?.. Sounds pretty realistic. I would expect some coatings and emblems at best, with actual decent stuff in the shop for $10 a pop

Probably going to be the Entrenched Event this season?

They gotta fix desync and other base things
Then fix custom games
Then finish forge

Of all the references to Halo 2 that 343 could have made, it had to be this one.

Season 2, maybe. Or season 3.

The real question is how many microtransactions have you done?

After 16 bundle purchases, 30 single item purchases. 50 swap and XP purchases and 3 battle pass purchases, game mode such as Infection become unlockable on the fourth battle pass at premium level 100 of the pass. After that you need to buy the Infected armor coating and weapon skins you can finally play Infection.

I have a feeling it’ll launch with Forge along with the custom game fixes since most custom games run on the Infection archetype.

In the void with the rest of the game
