First five games of the flight I did tremendous. next 20 or so i averaged 1 and 1. This evening my team keeps getting murdered and im lucky to score 5 kills. by the time I can get three shots off with a pistol I am dead. Even if I sweat and land consecutive headshots there is no hope.
The newness of the game haven worn off, It just isn’t that fun. H3 and H4 are still, years later, much more fun even with very little new content. H4 is my fave but Infinte has way too fast ttk and pacing. melee is rarely needed because of the effectiveness of guns and grenades.
The shear amount of effort needed to just do mediocre is draining and gets old fast. I can get over the broken xp system, crappy outlines and coatings, and even descopes. What I can’t over look is the horrible aiming and response curve. it feels like they used H5 as a launching point and just broke it further. Haven’t seen a single person argue against or complain about classic aiming so why the Yoink did they not use it. This is the only game that I’ve ever played that has simultaneously too much and too little aim assist.
Ultimately they can improve on alot in the coming years but I don’t think that they can fix the broken core mechanics. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a decent game but I won’t be investing a lot of time in it like I was hoping. Luckily Season 8 on MCC is good but Infinite will probably drain the population unfortunately.
I understand we’re your coming from, when I played tonight I was being destroyed so bad that I wondered if my preorder was a mistake or not, it I still feel like it was fun, atleast when I got a kill. Give it time, sucking in multiplayer doesn’t make the game bad, and I really sucked, going 5 games in a row going like 7/17

It does seem there is some sort of SBMM system from CoD implemented which really sucks. It made me permanently quit CoD, which I’ve been playing nearly as long as Halo. Hopefully, it’s just because the flight is locked down so we’re against hardcore Halo players.

I still think it’s generally fun, I’ll avoid dogging on Halo 4 lol, though still leagues better than H5. I agree the game is way too fast, to solve sprint, they made you really fast at base speed, but then strafing is insane. Though I still prefer it to how H4/H5 did sprint. TTK being too fast is mainly the OP AR, I think the game will flow substantially better if they nerf the AR, remove its headshot multiplier and nerf its range slightly, and it could be pretty good pacing wise. Right now its spray and pray with an AR that outclasses the BR at long range, so it doesn’t work well at all.

Aiming luckily is a common complaint, so hopefully 343i at the least addresses that.

You are playing in a small pool of players and sounds like you were doing really good. so you probably got shot up to the top of whatever skill system is in the game, wait for the first week of launch when its free to play and all the people come in to balance it out.

yeah ive decided not to play the game given the amount of graphics and performance issues and the bad input delay on mnk. I feel that the exp and mmr is just broken in this game. Its very boring too so im passing on this game and playing mcc or apex legends at this point.

I don’t know much about slayer because I didn’t play it too often but it had some kinda cool btb modes and I really liked swat In h4 more so than any other swat in the series yet.

This game feels Like COD more than Halo. TTKs are too fast.
They have implemented MMR for social. On the first night after I invited my friends to our group not sure if I was bugged or not but we could see the MMR increasing each game.
MMR has no place in social Halo… the idea that every game becomes a sweat fest is a joke… that’s what I thought ranked would be!

If ADS, spartan abilities and the faster TTK was a huge step in the wrong direction then Halo 4 walked off a cliff. At least in H5 TTK was only fast for good players, in 4 anyone and their grandma could land BR perfections. couple that with custom loadouts, armor abilities, perks, rng ordnance drops, no descope, weapon unlocks, terrible sprint implementation and you have easily the worst halo MP.

Maybe make a constructive post. If I’m ignorant then perhaps I can be taught. I have spent way too much time looking into this game and that’s partially why the gameplay is dissapointing.
