I may only spend about $5 per month (except for battle pass), but I’m happy with every purchase! I’ve seriously never enjoyed an F2P game much as Infinite multiplayer. I play Fortnite with some people, but I only cared enough to buy one skin.

I’ve gotten my fair share of bundles that I felt were fair prices. And I’ll admit. I spent more money here than any F2P game.
Then again. That is by default. I don’t really like the other F2P games.

I’ve spent a fair bit.
Not as much as I have on Pokemon Go over the journey - but that has a four year head start 
Haven’t regretted a purchase yet.
There’s probably a coating or two I haven’t gotten value for money from yet. So I need to work on changing things up a bit more regularly.
The Rakshasha stuff has been awesome!

I’ve spent more than I’d like to admit.

Have bought the two battle passes so far and that’s it.
I realised the other day that I’ve spent nearly £200 GBP on destiny 2 with the various expansions, then they made the game FTP so I felt that money was kinda wasted, haven’t played the game much since.
I want to buy some of these awesome skins and stuff but I won’t buy a damn thing till they Fix The Custom Games Area, we have a Custom Game Browser and we have Forge.
So if 343 want me to buy stuff 343 has to fix what I stated above. PERIOD!
Peace!

I spent $10 on the season 2 battle pass. So, I too, have spent more on Infinite than any other ftp game.

$35 total on my end.
I’ve put 8 times that into Destiny 2, but D2 really isn’t really a true F2P title
@Freak_A_Fan literally nothing about this post is bait
@xLEFx777x if I missed the point, surely you’d tell me how right?

Heh, there really aren’t many great F2P games. At least in my opinion. I was sad to see Ys 6 got a reallu nice looking remake that’s strangely an F2P online multiplayer game…
Heh, yeah, since I don’t get to play games as much now as I did months ago, I need to think hard about whether or not I’ll get around to using a cool new gun or vehicle coating.
Oof, yeah, it was a shame about Destiny 2…
The battle passes alone are worth so much in Infinite. I’ve enjoyed much of what’s come with them!

Its sad,
If y’all wouldn’t buy this stuff, we could have had another game like Reach or 3.
To each their own, but I really hope I never see any of y’all posting to complain about not having new content or the mtx prices. It is clearly 343’s focus on MTX that has lost us meaningful content. And it is your willingness to purchase it that got us from the Halo Reach model where we got a complete game for $60 to this model where even buying the battle pass barely gets you a fraction of the armor.

Still happy to complain about the prices. They are a little steep. I’m lucky I’m at a stage of life with a little more wiggle room in terms of free cash. But there are some bundles where I’ve been tempted to click buy - but it wasn’t quite worth it.
And always ready to complain about content. At least in terms of maps and game modes etc.

You can partake in systems and complain about them. But what’s your goal here, some kind of weird public shaming?
I don’t care what you think. If you really think this focus is at the developer level and not the publisher level, then, honestly, you’re not paying a lot of attention.
Don’t bother responding.

If anything, payers have even more right to complain since they are fueling the engine.

It’s why I won’t support 343. It was actually really selfish of them to lie to the player base about how customization was going to be prior to infinite being released.
What makes things even worse is knowing 343 hasn’t offered deadly squat when it comes to content since infinite released, and the campaign wasn’t nowhere near worth $60.

I said I only bought the ones that are fair prices. That is my way of telling 343 “More of this, less of the rest.” I’ll keep complaining about the prices for the items that I refuse to buy. They count what people have and what they don’t have.
You don’t know that. And at this point, I don’t see anything added by talking about hypotheticals.
Also, please don’t pretend Halo 2, 3 and reach didn’t have DLC. They sold map packs that split the playerbase. The map pack model took a complete product and player base and fragmented it. You want to play on all those cool Halo 3 forge maps? You have to pay up. you want the unique Halo CE Reach firefight map? Get out your credit card! It was garbage when Call of Duty did it, and it was garbage when Bungie/343 did it. I’m glad ODST had the DLC disc, but it doesn’t change the fact that the map packs were scummy. I never bought DLC for Halo 3, Reach, 4, nor any req packs for 5. The only good thing I can say about 5 is when they released maps they didn’t charge for them. The only DLC I bought in the whole Halo series was Halo Wars 2 Ultimate when I moved to PC, and the few stuff I bought in Infinite. I, and many of us, aren’t the reason 343 went to the free to play model. If there is anyone to blame for the state of this game, take it up with the publishers. Not the rest of us. We should all be on the same side here!
343 aren’t going to magically spawn a new yet classic Halo game any time soon, and we don’t have a time machine to stop Halo Infinite from being like this. This is the game we have and 343 are staying with it. 343 can’t get feedback from people who aren’t interacting with the game. So don’t blame us when we aren’t the ones in the studio. Especially on "might-have-been"s.
This part is just a general message to anyone who refuses to play or don’t have anything reasonable to say, but still complain. If you don’t want to support 343 and Halo Infinite, that’s fine. I understand, the studio keeps messing up. But at this point if there’s nothing more to add and you don’t want to play the game, leave. Move on. Play something you’ll actually like. If you hear this game is suddenly good, then come back. Chances are, you won’t miss much. The last Assassin’s Creed game I supported was Unity in 2014 when I bought the Xbox One bundle. I didn’t like Unity, so I ended it there. I replay the old games every so often, but I won’t buy the new games. Even if they are on gamepass. Or if I got them free some other way. I dropped COD after Ghosts in 2013 because I hated dropping over $100 on a game that feels the same as the last, and its map packs.
I didn’t like Destiny but was pressured by friends into buying the expansions and I dropped the game just before Taken King in 2015. The few times I look back at those series, I just see the same reasons I dropped them being repeated now. So I don’t play or engage with them. It is better to focus on what can actively be fixed and what is currently good as it is, rather than just complaining over something that you might see as irredeemable. If you want to boycott the game until you get what you want, actually boycott it. Not just don’t buy things in it. I mean get away from the forums, get away from the game. Don’t give 343 another number in the player count and don’t let them get in your head. Even if it keeps going without you, you’ll feel better not dealing with it. Heck, I didn’t like Halo 5 so I only picked it back up to try customs browser and Warzone Firefight. Then I went back to Fallout 4 or Doom 2016 because I liked those more than what Halo 5 was doing. I gave Halo Wars 2 a shot and liked it, and even if there isn’t much in Halo Infinite, I like what is here. If 343 does something I think is egregious with Halo Infinite, I’ll drop it too. If you already hit that point, then drop it. Think of it like a parasite. Stop feeding it, and let it starve.

Of course, just understand that by being baited into buying stuff that wasn’t worth it, you’re contributing to the prices being what they are.

Yes indeed, you can totally be hypocritical if you choose to.
Lol and yes, I’m aware of microsoft’s culpability in this, don’t kid yourself.
What do you mean fueling the engine… of microtransactions? People paying $60 or playing on game pass are fueling the engine of the campaign, people buying cosmetics are pushing them to make more cosmetics, and cosmetics alone.
That’s like saying “people who drive unnecessarily huge trucks have the most right to complain about climate change, since they are contributing to it more.”
