Infinite... I want to love you but how?

Halo infinite has so much potential but it has so many flaws. I seriously want to love this game but i can’t … right now.

The love that it needs -

  • More maps (Seasonal maps : heroes of reach - where are the reach maps)
  • More weapons (fuel rod, grenade launcher, needler rifle and so on)
  • A social progression system (like halo reach, mcc or halo 5) - i miss this
  • More BR - BTB needs it and so does social
  • Nerf AR : it’s way too strong (nerf range, ROF and add vertical recoil)
  • The store is way to pricey
  • Needs a PVE mode like firefight, spartan ops or something new
  • Remove the Red outlines at range (very annoying to be spotted so easily)
  • More vehicles (where are all the vehicles… “Mantis i miss you”)
  • Dynamic map elements (what happened to maps having cool triggers that caused cool things to happen like shooting a stalactite or buttons that activated bridges)
  • Region Select (i dont want to play anyone outside the US)
  • Party matching (searching and matching based on party size)
  • More Gamemodes (where is extraction, dominion, ricochet and assault)
  • Better hit registration (weird getting shot through walls)
  • Better UI : The Interfaced needs a lot of work
  • Post game and pregame lobbies
  • Veto system
  • Party up with randoms after a match (at the end of games hit “party up” to group up

I’ll add more but this is what this game needs to be amazing. Some changes not as important but others are crucial to the longevity of this game

No thanks, it’s finally a weapon that can compete. Why make it useless again like it was in past titles?

Rest of the list is good though :+1:

I get what your saying, but when I get out gunned by an AR when I am getting perfect headshots at midrange its a little much.

Sounds to me like your headshots are less than perfect.

cant stand the AR its either too good or not good enough, bc desync every match the weapons in this iteration are too damn inconsistent

It makes sense to be as strong as it is in every past title, the AR has never been useless, at least not in MP.

In Halo CE: it was extremely deadly in close range.
In Halo 2: it was replaced by the SMG
In halo 3: it got more range but a low ttk, still faster ttk in the right range.
Halo reach: it got more range and can be controlled easier at long range due to bloom
Halo 4: I think basically like reachs but more powerful, is completely braindead in the right ranges
Halo 5: gained the ability to ADS and do headshot damage, control spread through burst via bloom, but it can still be outgunned by the BR and Magnum in close range, it was more of an ease of use gun than the magnum, which had a faster TTK at peak performance I think. (Which is good because the magnum is harder to use)

Right now In infinite it outguns the commando and BR in like every situation, it can win 1v1s against the sidekick if they whiff like a shot or two, with relative ease.
You can basically cross map with it if you have a second teammate shooting with you, if you enter a Mid-long range fight against 2 and they have the AR and you have a BR it’s not worth peeking at all because it will laser you if there’s 2 people.

The AR has always been a gun that’s useful in the correct positions, or completely braindead in the correct position.

In infinites iteration, it’s just braindead.

You got to be -Yoink!- me

yeah the kill times with the AR is pretty fast and with the headshot modifier it makes it way easier to finish off the kill while their shields are down

This Halo is the first one I don’t look forward to playing everyday. Its sad.

Even when i got Halo 5 I loved it at first…

I feel the same way beast. It really sucks

Hello!

 Obviously Halo Infinite didn’t start out very strong. For one, I absolutely despise the free to play, battle pass style game. Halo did not need to adapt that corporate structure. However, I believe it has made a huge boom back in the right direction. A majors problem was lack of content. With new maps and forge releasing, content is booming and on the rise. This is awesome. I believe the only content left needed is Campaign DLC, more loading screens, and future rewards (more on this later). 
 These, I believe as well as many people I’ve discussed with are key components that will absolutely complete the game and cement halo once again as the best fps in gaming. 
  • XP social Rank progression
    This was such an integral part of previous halo games. The ranks, social level, and badges made the game addicting and are essential to nearly all types of games, especially halo.

  • XP rank exclusive rewards

  • all playlists available at all times

  • with addition of m&k aim assist, option for cross play off (biased)

  • Service Record
    This is so important. Please restore this crucial feature.

  • more alien/banished based/inspired online content (maps, modes)
    This is crucial to Halo and what makes it different from anything else. It’s story.

-Splitscreen Coop
I know this is a long shot, but truthfully it shouldn’t be. This is how I became a Halo fan. Both campaign and online.

  • Shared public lobbies in between games while waiting for match to load
    A staple to games like halo and Cod

  • New loading screens, and possibly new waiting lobby environment?

-Because of infinites nature, Campaign DLC
Progress the story every year.

-No SBMM in social playlists
allow us to have fun with friends of all skill types

-DLC of old Halo Map Remakes
similar to Empyrean. (Awesome)

-Armor customization from ranked rewards

  • Finally, less desync, solid servers

    I know this seems like a lot. However, I and much of the halo community share many of these concerns and know these are integral, core components of Halo. Halo has incredible potential, but we need to focus on the foundation. When you build a structure, you start from the ground up. Every amazing structure needs a strong foundation. Let’s not forget what has made halo great in the past.

    The gameplay and mechanics are there. The maps that are there are quality. The campaign was awesome. The customization is great. Forge is wonderful. We are so close… I believe this will return Halo to its former glory.
