No, it really isn’t.
Just because things can be compared doesn’t make them the same or applicable.
It get it but this is the negative of using comparisons.
Comparison can exist but logic and reality are still logic and reality.
The equipment and weapons argument isn’t the same.
We don’t start with rocket launchers for a reason.
Dead in the water? Hmmm reactions and expectations from E3 and Microsoft says otherwise. The feedback and praise from THE FLIGHTS, LEGITMATE BETAS, showed how much Halo is still valued greatly in this day and age of gaming. And my man please, to be truly honest Halo thrived when it was rated M…a rating where the chances of the younger audience taking part wasn’t high. Spare me that nonsense.
What I stated is highly relevant because the problems prevelant in this “free to play” game is killing the population and motivations to play the game. I BET YOU if they actually released this game with the content Halo is known for like Co-op for campaign and forge, the reception would be MUCH better than it is.
And social fun playlists that put other games to shame? Bruh, casuals would eat it up like it was nothing and come in droves.
It may be similar but not the same. No weapon can find you across the map like a grapple can.
Also I mentioned this before that everyone should start with the thruster and if they see equipment on the field they would be able to swap it out and if you run out of the equipment you picked up the thruster pack would automatically come back
You are in denial. This is amazing how much it effects people.
Halo clearly fell from it’s glory so to speak ahahahaha.
It isn’t a debate. You are wrong.
Look at the sales and player numbers for YEARS!!!
Look at the active Twitch watchers compared to every other shooter at the top!!!
You are wrong.
In my opinion Covid and many other real world problems made people want to forget the real world and they are looking for anything to fill that gap
To some people Halo HAS to be good again or else gaming is dead to them. That’s why I feel many are defending it even tho they admit they don’t like how it launched bare.
There is also this other thing that affects me and my friend. We constantly have nothing to play because everything is bad nowadays. Call of duty is bad. Battlefield is bad. There is no unifying game that everyone is playing right now. It’s all split. I litterally play Halo infinite because there is nothing else to play. There is no game out there that has a new experience OR is a good comepetive experience AND has a population.
i know from titels like COD has it become more about making money and thats there only care about and forget the other things like that a game needs to be working good and need to have less problems.
look at the last Cod titel vanguard how much hate there is about it since its so broken with a lot off bug’s.
and the main thing there is the develop time that is also to short since there wane release each year a new cod titel when at some point you give then more a broken game since the time there need is to short to make a good game.
from halo infinite there got the time to develop it good but the choise there have make in the multiplayer are wrong from the start and its going to hurt then now.
this is something that is all playing long since halo 4 for some people that think its going the wrong way when its not.
The books are canon though. Games come first and can supersede the books if needed. This happened with Halo Reach and the original Fall of Reach novel back in 2010. They released an updated Fall of Reach book to address some of the changes in Halo Reach and make it line up more with the game.
Halo 4,5 & Infinite rely on the books much more than past Halo games now.
Twitch is not the end all be all for games success. The fact that you brought that up shows how little you know. “LOoK aT thE sAlEs” boy Halo 4 and then 5 had the best selling records for the franchise. And Halo infinite was leading Stream sales since it’s launch:rofl:


like what point are you trying to make here?
What again kills the player population is how this game functions and the CONTENT. Despite what I say, Halo Infinites gameplay is generally well received but the content and battle pass is the main freaking issue that is having an I’mmediate effect. Had those issues not been a thing, it would be doing MUCH better. Twitch streamers he says…like we want any of those fools on Infinite. What you expect Pokimane to be playing Infinite? Halo is not a game you watch someone else play for hours. YOU PLAY IT YOURSELF
343 ruined it. You’re seeing the aftermath of 3 games largely rejected by the community.
Sorry, I fell off your logic train with this comment. Now I’m lost. I think similarities between weapon pick ups and equipment pick ups are a fair comparison.
I agree, there is a reason we don’t spawn with rocket launchers, we also don’t spawn spawn with over shields. Not sure what point your trying to make.
And the fact that this was your first sentence let’s me know your mental state and capabilities.
Twitch is now irrelevant AHAHAHAHA whatever it takes for you guys to save your nostalgic nonsense.
I stop reading after the first sentence.
You can’t be taken seriously
Going to paint my nails and get that new skin.
When did I say Twitch was irrelevant? I said its not the end all, be all for games. Never was, never will be. But I guess reading comprehension is above you. The crazy thing about assumptions is that you have to be INTELLIGENT to actually attempt it. But go off kid. I’m sure that extra chromosome will relax and you can think straight.
The current state of the game is due to contract problems created by Microsoft. Contracts would expire and the knowledge that those devs had was replaced with someone new who had to relearn what the last guy did only for their contract to expire and so on.
I have seen some baffling opinions, like, as you mentioned people rejecting clamber in favor of having to crouch jump. I get it. I’m someone who loved Halo 4, and got to see it get dog piled for changing to much too fast. I get what you’re saying, but just because we perceive someone else opinion to be dumb doesn’t mean their opinion is any less valid.
Equipment is just a different type of power weapon. Do you want equal starts with those too?
Honestly if you don’t like unpredictability in games then you should stick to the classic playlist. Armor abilities shouldn’t be removed just cause some butthurt old school “back in my day” players can’t/refuse to adapt, classic playlist is where you should be.
Ablities or equipment? Because I’m not against abilities. I’m against equipment. Not all equipment either. Just movement equipment that allows you to traverse the map differently.
Abilities. I want things like Jetpack, drop shield, evade, hardlight shield, and active camo back as abilities I can use when I want, how I want to. I enjoy the random bs of abilities, it adds spice to the game.
Irrelevant as I stated I didn’t even bothering reading because you started with pure NONSENSE.
The fact you even started there and I knew you would because of how petty the community is.
You wrote something ILLOGICAL.
I corrected you.
You are now struggling accepting this with any type of decency as you have zero defense.
You were simply wrong.
You can’t claim Halo Infinite is not meeting expectations due to the launch state of the game and ignore that it hasn’t met those expectations for this giant title that once dominated gaming,
WHY???
BECAUSE THE DAMAGE THAT MADE IT THAT WAY PREDATES THIS GAME.
It can’t be debated.
You can’t have a gaming community/media openly calling out the state of the franchise.
Bombing an entire entry that came out before this one that was rejected and then say Halo as a franchise didn’t impact this game regardless of it’s launch state.
It got delayed a year for being mocked. Lol
Stop.
Jetpack is horrible but I would like that as a custom game option
Drop sheild we already have. Something I’m not opposed to
Active camo is already in to.
I don’t enjoy random. I enjoy predictable. Because you know. It’s a competitive shooter
