The title says it all really so i think 343 should sue CoD …
I hope you are joking and if you are serious, allow me to show you why such an idea is not very smart.
The gaming industry and since the dawn of reasoning and logic, is based upon ideas that came before and improve on those ideas that makes them unique rather than just an exact copy. It doesn’t warrant a lawsuit or else Epic should be suing Bungie and 343 to hell and back for having Firefight which is similar to Horde Mode. Except that they can’t because it does enough to make itself stand out as it’s own unique experience.
As much as i think COD sucks, I have to agree with broken demand, it is only based on Halo’s infection. Come on, how many lawsuits should halo have for its firefight modes going by your theory OP?
Besides they are published by the same company anyhow so its no biggie. Games have always leeched out and made their own perspective out of the same idea! “kind of like cars” but ne how its no biggie.
Infection has been around a LONG time before Halo, no one owns the rights to ‘Infection’ either, it’s not exactly trademarked.
No OP, infection was invented by some kid back in halo 2. Im still waiting for my official tower of power gametype ;_;
And check it out, gun game was cribbed verbatim from an unofficial mod for counter strike source.
And halo robbed firefight mode from gears o wars Horde!
Counter strike sourced invented “infection” as we know it over a decade ago.
A game where a few players had knives and the allied majority had guns, once you died you respawned with a knife.

You know, they should sue them for theater and fileshare options over infection.
Seriously, theater has the EXACT SAME CONTROLS AS REACH (for the most part) and the fileshare can only hold 6 (like Reach) and acts the same way.
THEY ARE ALSO CALLED THE EXACT SAME THINGS AS REACH’S.
