Ok, now I’m convinced all of these random users with bleeding hearts are 343 employees in disguise begging for mercy.

Buddy, have I got news for you lol
This IS the Halo 5 engine. They overhauled it but it’s still the same engine it’s always been. Just another marketing ploy by 343i to make themselves seem competent.
Just like how they silently take credit for the amazing state MCC is currently in.
But would they take credit for the lies, deceit, and poor state of Infinite? Nah.

Yo I know you did NOT just say splitgate is a better game than infinite.
That game died off quicker than a housefly
I don’t think it’s selfish to not want to pay over $10 just to be able to change your characters color to white.
This isn’t a generational divide. Gamers have enjoyed their games and unlocking rewards since the earliest days. I remember logging hours of VS matches with friends to unlock Mewtwo in Smash Melee. I remember beating Halo 3 on Legendary and unlocking EOD. I remember unlocking Dare after beating ODST on Legendary for Firefight. Hell, it was nice to get a little poster for completing the fossils for my islands museum in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
All those games, and Infinite, are fun on their own merits. But getting stuff along the way is nice and anyone who seems perplexed by that is either purposely lying to themselves or just being obtuse. I like Infinite, but seeing my battle pass complete and show things I unlocked but can’t access unless I drop $10 blows. It’s that or spend on overpriced bundles in the cash shop. If this is what Halo has to offer, I can pay for better experiences elsewhere.
Granted, this may have been a bait post, but plenty unironically would agree with it and the sentiment still applies.
I got 2 words for ya pal. Vocal Minority. There’s are thousands of people on this forum and the ragers you see posting this crap are all either entitled 50+ year olds stuck in nostalgia, or they just want the comments. I agree with you. This is a selfish community, but it’s the Halo community. We’ve supported Halo for years and years. Bungie set the bar extremely High, 343 wanted to piggyback off other successful games and it wasn’t until now that they circled back to what made Halo authentic. We want it done right. This game we have now (multiplayer) is not right, even on normal game standards. Fortnite battlepass is better than this. Pretty much any other game has worked out a better system than this.

They have to push you to buy somehow…
Just my experience so far, but I have completed a majority of the weekly challenges, passively. I accomplish them while playing to win.
I have had a decent chunk of time to play, but it’s not like I’m going out of my way to complete challenges. I didn’t even know you can view the challenge list until recently.
That being said, if you’re queuing into a match with the sole purpose of completing challenges, you’re going to have a bad time. If you go into a match with the sole purpose of trying your best to win that match, the challenges just somehow complete themselves.
Crazy, I know.
I absolutely did. Comparatively, you have an indie team versus a triple AAA studio with 20 years of source material on top of backing from one of the largest publishers.
It may not have had staying power but it also didn’t have a 20 year franchise fan base supporting it either.
Bottom line, they put out a more player friendly and content rich F2P than Halo infinite.
It’s not even an opinion. It’s a fact.

well son of a brute. i’ve been tricked, backstabbed, and quite possibly bamboozled by 343’s lies once again! so if it’s the exact same halo engine that has been updated since CE-5… how the heck has it taken them this long?! bungie updated their engine in less time… that’s just… nonsense. welp, add that to the list of lies that 343 has given. what is it now? 3-4? spark have mercy, it makes activision/treyark look good -v-
^point*
Well then that just proves my point above
Can’t say anyone’s ever called me a toxic person before. Never expected it would be for enjoying a free videogame either, but here we are…
They aren’t pushing me to buy anything and all they’re going to end up doing is pushing me away from Halo infinite
And that is your choice I’m just saying that’s why it’s so hard…
I know I’m not the only one that feels that way the way they are doing the microtransactions is dumb and if they don’t change it they will lose more players because of it
Yep, I’m just agreeing with you. But along with microtransactions they have to do something that pushes you to buy otherwise no one would buy it…
Welcome to the present day.

Not only is this spam but you’re describing yourself. None of the people complaining are being selfish, they’re raising actual concerns over very real problems that are present. But then you get into attacking people, it’s sad.

I never said “you’re toxic for enjoying a free videogame”
Don’t put words in people’s mouths. I said that the majority of the toxicity that I, personally, am seeing is from people defending the game.
I literally gave two examples in my comment of what people have said on this very reply thread.
You have a very narrow view of how games are supposed to be played and cry foul when someone doesn’t enjoy something the exact way you do.
Please for the love of God, grow up.
