Just as i suspected with halo infinite being more open world its been confirmed by several youtubers who have played the campaign there is no mission select option in the menu and you just have to start the game all over again and go through the entire thing hoping to get all collectables as there is no going back to each mission or section of the game!! For me this is devastating and mission select shpuld always be a part of halo games theres nothing better than jumping on solo and especially co op and replaying your favourite missions! Dont understand why they couldnt even have a mission select like in metro exodus where each new section of open world you unlock and go to is classed as a mission in the mission select menu!!!

can you please provide proof? I never heard about this
Well, that’s not how the game works… there’s no “missions,” in the game at all. If you miss a collectible, just go back and get it. The world is “open” thus you don’t have to follow a linear path or reset anything. You can go wherever you want.
As for the more linear dungeon-like levels where the game’s main story will probably be focused; I expect you’ll still be able to enter them to find collectibles.

Youtuber Mint Blitz listen to full video from 1 day ago halo infinites legendary campaign dificulty and questions he gets round to that question at some point no spoilers in video by the way! I tried to just copy and paste link but halo waypoint no longer allows it!!
why did he have access to the campaign? I assume he is a big halo youtuber
Yeah he is a big halo youtuber along with hallofollowrr and hidden xperia etc they seem to have early access check out there videos
yeah, tbh having a mission selectgion system for a semi open world like this is not realy feesable to implent, a system where ya can keep multiple manual saves per playtrhough makes more sense and should be added
This seems ridiculous, can it really be true? Please say it isn’t so!

Metro exodus was semi open world and pulled it off…

if this is the case then yeah that’s just -Yoink!- frankly. Even ODST with it’s hub world allowed to play missions seperately. Not happy with that decision if true

Calm down, we’ll see for ourselves when we get our hands on the game come Dec. 8th.
It also has been said my either “GamerRiot” or “Greenskull” (youtubers, not sure which one), that there is a neat way of going back and redoing the missions.
@Blizzarus
It has been confirmed that there are missions in the game, 14 I think (although it does say 15 on Halopedia).
the “tutorial” maybe count as a mission?
Okay “missions” but not levels, you know what I mean bro
The 14/15 missions are just tasks in the open world you have to complete. There’s no separate maps that are distinct from one another, with each level having a completely different linear path to follow. The entire game is one big map, so unless they decide to lock off the dungeon areas after you finish them (which I highly doubt), you’ll be able to go back to anywhere on the map and go get collectibles without restarting.
@Blizzarus
What about the first mission when you’re in space after being rescued by “The Pilot”?
Destiny managed it. Same kind of system.

Wait, are you serious? Can someone confirm this? Man this game just keeps on finding ways to be worse.
Don’t know about that tbh; it’s possible they’ll pull a Metroid Prime and have a prologue-esque section that you can’t go back to, with a few collectible you can permanently miss, but knowing 343 I doubt it. And if that is the case, I mean, you can always start a fresh save to get anything in the very first part of the game that’s missable. That’s no worse than any past game where you’d have to restart a level if you missed something.
I can’t remember who it was I was watching on YouTube, but one early access player mentioned that Mission Select did exist in the game.
Im only stating what ive heard while watching the youtuber names Mint Blitz questions amd answers about halo infinite i hope he is wrong and there is mission/level select options at main menu but i guess we will find out soon on the 8th! Like i said though i will personally be gutted if it does not let you gp back and replay certain missions i prefer to do that instead of start whole game again each time i want to play
I believe there are missions but it’s like ODST. Where the open Zeta Halo is like New Mombasa Streets, and the missions/levels are certain areas like that giant tower we see quite a lot of.
