They used forge to recreate maps in halo 5 and it looked like absolute trash. If they do a remake actually remake it. Usuing forge and rebuilding a map is just lazy. But these days I expect nothing less
Literally the most accurate description of how every Halo fan is feeling rn lmao
According to the State of the Game documents 343 published (I don’t have the link and their News page won’t load - great job on the Servers, 343), the Drop Pods are supposedly for QOL and Bug Fixes, not content.
So far, those have been undoing stuff they took out that no one asked for - like Jumping.
Is there really nothing else for 6 months?
Scanning… just dust and echoes… that’s all that’s left.

We have a roadmap.
Map wise yes. But we’re going to have two recurring events each month.

My expectations were low, but not that low. I thought at least one of them would have content.

It’s more like crudely drawn sketch of a trail on a McDonald’s serviette.

That doesn’t change what it is. Y’all asked for it and got it. Sorry you’re not happy - basically nobody is.
But it’s the best we’re getting.

Don’t worry. A few game types will turn orange and you’ll get a chance to play an “event” for “free stuff!”

Even if it’s a different part of the team doing interim work, when the only things you have are two maps, a gametype, 2-3 playlists and some events when the game is a glaring void of content is like some absurd Monty Python skit where they keep ignoring the elephant in the room. They may have addressed it but vague hope doesn’t inspire people to jump back on.
Infinite released, at most, 33% of a game compared to 3 or Reach specifically. Couple that with Halo 2, 3, Reach and Halo 4 even, having a stronger year 1 content rollout than Infinite. Even though Reach released much healthier, by this point, the 6ish month mark, Noble and Defiant map packs were out, there had been 10-15 playlists added, multiple patches and changes, about 10 forge maps added to 4v4 and 7 for BTB.
People on Waypoint can argue semantics until they’re blue in the face, but until Halo gets the big content drop it desperately needs, it’s too little too late.
I don’t think anyone is arguing quite that hard.
You can argue that Infinite opened OK - on the left hand side of the scale - but OK. And even the premise of 2-3 maps per season. But making the first two seasons six months has been a huge content killer.
If only we were knee deep in S3 right now…
I’m enjoying S2. And it should fill it’s original charter of 3 months of content. Or pretty close to it.
After that it’s the “big content” drop. Forge. Add in co-op campaign and you set yourself up for a big reboot in S3 / holiday period. But no pressure.
Guys this is why I made a post about old maps in Infinite. Pls check out my link in this reply and tell us which maps you would like in Infinite. Hopefully 343 can use my post and other gamers feedback to make this game better. I agree, something seriously needs to be done.
