(POLL) What is your biggest frustration with Infinite right now?

Games Halo Infinite
61

My biggest gripe with Halo Infinite right now takes some explaining.

To summarize and keep it simple, I’ll say this.
If you had taken a screenshot of these forums at the launch of season 1, at the 5 month of season one mark and the current post season two phase, the complaints, issues and arguments being made are the same.

While 343i keep stating they “hear the community” and plan to make changes to address these issues, we are yet to see any actual changes.

The numbers don’t lie.
Season 1’s launch peaked at 20 million concurrent players.
Season 2’s launch peaked at just over 20 thousand concurrent players.

Halo is dying. And it’s a damn shame.

Its most likely the desync and not you

All of the above, and then some.

I gave 343 a year, but with how things are rolling out, will be lucky by the end of Year 3 just to get a complete game.

Then again, knowing they stressed “it’s a 10 year plan”? It actually could be longer.

No Forge.

I just want to get my hands on the new scripting.

My biggest frustration with Infinite and 343 in general is all the waiting that’s required… always waiting… more and more and more waiting… this week or next week, doesn’t matter, we’ll all be told “thanks for waiting.” “Keep waiting and sending that feedback!” blahblahblahblah “Oops! We broke something again! Sorrrrrry, more waiting!”

I’m just sick and tired of all the waiting. When the hell are these people going to deliver their damn vision? Because I still don’t quite see what they are trying to do… well… besides sell cosmetics and Battle Passes, maybe that’s the grand vision they had in mind for Halo all along.

By far the challenge system. I hate that I can’t progress the battle pass by playing the modes I WANT to play. At best, it’s annoying. At its worst, I feel like the game doesn’t want me to have fun.

Just start to watch today’s community stream.
Why they showing kinda nice animated scenes on stream, but in game we have the same academy themed title screen with our spartan and nothing new for S2 exepts rain?

Lol. Forgot that one. Lots of folks that picked “other” listed this as their biggest issue as well.

No idea whats going on behind the scenes at 343i, complete lack of frequent weekly updates.

Sure they said Forge will beta in season 2,
They said Co-Op will be coming in season 2…

But they also said after Season 1the seasons would be 3 months long. and promised more transparency between the dev’s and player base.

Both items fell short, don’t be surprised if season 3 is delayed, as is forge and co-op.

We need to know week by week, whats going on behind the scenes, that glimpse of hope keeps us going.

I’d like to be able to turn off texture streaming.

I also think there should be a compass. When you die on a symmetrical map you don’t have any quick way of telling what side you’re on and where someone is.

73

Man I’ll tell you that this gun jamming is absolutely pathetic for a major title. They should be thoroughly embarrassed with themselves

74

The lack of campaign DLC.

I felt the campaign we got was an introductory chapter and to not quickly follow up on it is a little annoying.

75

I voted for Other:
The corrupt theatre bug has been incredibly frustrating. All of my files are “corrupt” and I have tried using every solution folks have put forward to fix the issue. Nothing has fixed it, and it doesn’t seem like it has even been addressed by the team. I know they have many other issues that need fixing at this time, but I’m hoping this is somewhere on their list.

76

My biggest frustration is that it launched.
It was so undercooked it ran off my plate.

There’s no option for literally everything…

Customization - Armor Cores as a concept (all armor should be interchangeable), Coatings shouldn’t be a thing and we should just have basic color selection (I’m even fine with very specific color combos to be locked to Coatings, maybe different shades that wouldn’t be available in the basic color picker), I think that we should be able to mix and match different prostheses instead of the style of those being locked to cores.

The Sandbox - Get rid of the “weapons being different every time you load a map” thing, and give things consistent spawns. Buff the plasma pistol, it’s absolutely useless. The Hydra is also embarrassingly bad for being a literal mini rocket launcher (I think maybe a slight fire rate buff would make it far more usable, maybe even a reload speed buff)

Too few maps - Self explanatory

No PvE multiplayer - Also self explanatory. Spartan Ops, Warzone, Firefight… anything would be better than what we currently have (which is nothing)

The battle pass (while improved, still is loaded with useless challenge swaps and xp boosts that don’t even work)

I’ve had input issues with both Keyboard and Mouse (inputs not registering/ registering on a delay) and Controller (experiencing drift that I don’t experience in other games)

The Monetization and FOMO

Lack of Playlists - It’s much better now, but I still want to queue with my friends in Rumble Pit, I want Automatic and Precision slayer separated, Oddball as it’s own playlist, Attrition in it’s own playlist (I hate Attrition), I want classic King of the Hill/ Crazy King

The Challenge System- Get rid of challenge swaps and xp boosts straight up, make ALL challenges universal (especially if they aren’t going to allow us to queue for the game modes we need to complete them), standardize challenges so that every player has the SAME weekly challenges (IMO this would significantly help populate certain playlists during the week), and make it to where when you run out of weekly challenges, THEN you get random ones from there to reward consistent playtime.

Bring back commendations, add color, armor, trinket unlocks for skillful play/ unique challenges (For example… I don’t know… a cross map fusion core kill? I’m not great at examples lol)

Let us earn a small amount of credits just by playing.

Bring back pre and post game lobbies including map/gamemode votes, vetoing, and requeueing. And with that, the ability to quickly view everyone’s service record (ala reach)

Bring Forge as early as possible (I don’t know about you guys, but it could be barebones in an alpha state and it would still be worth having imo)

Fix the theater… jesus christ

Think I got most of what I could think of? There may be more but that’s the most important stuff imo
