Live service? More like dead service

How exactly is this game supposed to be a live service at this point? I get the first season being extended was because of growing pains but another 6 month season? Even CoD has a better live service offering than this and they’re on a year/ year and a half live span.

I think “Live Service” is becoming a catchphrase that companies like to smack onto their products just for show. Ya know, just another one of those typical marketing phrases that are designed to sound consumer friendly or clever but are really put there as bait to lure you in.

Whhhhaaaaatttt? Marketing would NEVER use buzz words to drive interest in their product up on a false pretense.

Live service is 343I excuse to make an incomplete Halo game and put out the rest of the game in 10 years.

I think it would be funny if certain affinity is the reason the game gets a comeback

If they are, they should be the primary dev.

It’s live, it is just not a service

At least I can play a functioning game, where CoD its just sitting in the corner eating its own toes.

at least cod is consistently fun unlike infinite -v-
but to be fair, neither game is ‘functional’ in their own ways

You act as though Halo Infinite is the best, most flawless game ever made and the best live service model ever made.

Live service just PR talk. just like the “10 year plan” lie. it’s just there to sound good and lure people with good faith in, in the hopes they will spend money on MTs. and people still believe it for some reason, despite the many, many bad examples set by the video game industry for years now. (anthem for example)

I missed most of my noscopes tonight - desync is awful.

“Live Service” is a phrase that catches the attention of users.

It’s not a live service. It’s a company manipulating weak-minded people.

It’s simple logic really, and it seems to be working on a few players.

Halp infinite is not the best but the other games ( minus halo 4 and 5) can still beat cod to this day.

update in less than a week lmao.

That shall be judged soon enough. If it delivers, then good on them.

Wow, is this where we are supposed to be impressed that 343 engine can only handle 2 more maps?

Who knows? Despite whatever their difficulty is, & other game mechanics aren’t complete either. I can’t say for sure if they are stretching themselves thin or if they need more experience adjusting everything. For online side of things i can see why the game took a popularity dip for players to go back to playing other halo titles with what’s currently unfinished.
