So all in all Halo Infinite’s campaign has shaped up to be really enjoyable. The gameplay is smooth and the enemies are enjoyable. There is one oddity though: The Hunters. For some reason their movements and mannerisms just aren’t good. Let me explain their flaws:
- No sense of distance. You can basically hug a Hunter and they’ll keep using their cannon instead
of trying to swat at you. This makes it really hard to bait them into opening up. - Insane turning. Hunters can not only rotate themselves quickly while walking, they can also turn almost perfectly while in the middle of a melee attack. This makes it extremely difficult to both dodge and retaliate against them. Even with a fully powered thruster pack, they can consistently hit an evasive player.
- Omniscience. It doesn’t matter how far away you are or if you’re stand still cloaked, if they know you are around they will find you. This is a first as far as I remember.
I’m all for a good challenge, but this seems almost unnatural. Their physical stats are good, but their crazed AI just makes them a pain to deal with. Hunters need to chill a little bit.
