IMHO 343 thinks that Halo at it’s Core is a highly competitive game but it’s not!!
Halo has at it’s core has always been a Social Experience and competitiveness coming out of that. It has always been a party game with friends.
There were rumours that 343 was making a Hero Shooter Game REALLY?
Who in the hell came up with that get that idea?
343 has two games they could have used Halo Reach and Halo 3 as a fantastic
blueprint for Halo Infinite and 343 and Microsoft chose not to use them as a blueprint for Halo Infinite. My question is why?
“IMHO The only thing that Halo Needed was a face lift and that’s it!”
Every thing else was working pretty good to be honest.
Why was Halo Infinite Released without forge?
Why is for forge being released without a Custom Game Browser
when the Forge beta is going to be released on November 8, 2022
Why was Halo Infinite released with a broken Custom Game Area?
Why is it after almost a year there are still issues with Desync?
Why was Season 3 pushed back to March 8, 2023?
I love Halo but sometimes I feel that 343 has kinda lost their way
on what Halo is all about. That is why I play Halo MCC more
than Halo Infinite.
I have been a Halo traditionalist since Halo Combat Evolved but
seems too me that 343 is not and that is the disappointing part for me.
IMHO Halo Infinite has so much to offer but 343 has to go back to the
traditional ways of the Halo Franchaise otherwise IMHO Halo Infinite will fail.
Just remember! The issue is not with the Developers. it’s Microsoft Management and 343 Management and nobody else period!
I tried making Infinite my primary Halo game but all of this stuff on top of the horrible SBMM in Infinite has just sucked the fun out of Infinite.
I still find new things to laugh about in MCC every time I play. Just yesterday I did a barrel roll in the elephant. No idea how… Just the goofy physics. We will never see anything like that in Infinite. I can’t even remember the last time I laughed in Infinite.
At this point, it’s just sad.
Here’s the barrel roll:

I think the who whole 343 is pushing competitive is over rated.
Forge and the wave of custom maps and scripts will change the balance no end. The time since launch is gut wrenching - but from what we’ve seen in the leaks I reckon it will take about 5 minutes for us to forgive them.
I imagine there will be an update to our custom options at the same time.
No custom game browser at launch is disappointing - but hopefully we have a solid file share / search. And an appropriate set up here on Waypoint to share our creations and finds.
I’m on MCC until something at least changes with Infinite that makes it worth playing again, I will jump on it if one of my friends wants to play it but I’m sticking to where the core is at with MCC
I owned every xbox because of halo co-op to play with my husband. No other game mattered. I would buy the console jsut for the one game. But they chose to provide a half baked game in pursuit of subscriptions and online live service. Now for this user they can keep their series x and gold pass until i get my co-op.
