Still utter lack of fun after 4 month

No PvE, no BTB fiesta, no Grifball…
Current running event gives you all of those pointless reward but asking you to play and play.
Did you know how we called those reward in Chinese ? 『雞肋』.

It means “chicken ribs” - tasteless when eaten but a pity to throw away

So how to get those “chicken ribs” ? You’ll have to finish those challenge :

  • Asking you to kill 10 enemies with specified weapon, and you will never have that weapon in entire match.
  • Asking you to kill enemy with fusion coil, but there is ONLY ONE map gives you fusion coil and you still can’t play on that map even after continued 10 matches.
  • Asking you to win 3 matches and throw you into losing match again and again (for example 12:36 when you enter)

These dirty tricks challenge might help with online player count, but makes game not fun anymore.
Halo Infinite - utter lack of fun, really disappointed :broken_heart::-1::frowning:

I’m sorry your not having fun.

I just spent a couple of hours running around in Fiesta, Tac Ops, Ranked, and BTB.

Had a ball of a time.

I think the key is to forget about the challenges and the chicken ribs. And just have fun playing the game.

Yeah for me there is nowhere to go in this game to just have fun. I would love to just drop in to a custom game lobby with some crazy settings on a crazy map. But apparently nobody can actually release completed games any more, so we have to wait until the games population is gone for that stuff.

I’ve had my fill of ranked now, it is super stressful, rightfully so. My problem is with social. It just isn’t fun. The matchmaking is really inconsistent, but this mantra of perfectly balancing the matches just ruins the whole experience. Matchmaking will stick me in with a bunch of level 1 players to level the teams out, and so if I don’t want to get dominated I have to sweat my Stoatbag off.

When custom games finally arrives I will be relieved. As it is the game just isn’t fun

Desync still makes that very hard for me. My character jitters and constantly has a seizure, enemies teleporting around corners, delayed explosions. Worst feeling Halo I’ve ever played. Its great when its good, but thats not the average experience I can find.

I uninstalled on my Xbox a few weeks ago. 4 out of 5 games my Ping time is 250 ms because 343’s Automagic matchmaking code thinks Amsterdam (250+ ms ping times) is somehow closer to Alberta Canada than Seattle (which is 25 ms ping time). Expect a FPS shooter to be fun and playable at 4 frames per second is insane.

Padded playtime because 343 hasn’t offered much at all when it comes to content.

Maybe they should learn how to create a game first before releasing whatever this is.

It’s definitely getting very stale, but I wouldn’t say it lacks fun.

You played a game you didn’t think was fun for four months?

If I ever found Halo to lack fun, I’d probably stop.

You should probably stop.

There’s a big library out there. If Halo isn’t for you, I’m sure you’ll find your forever home in something else.

Still no ranked 2v2 or team slayer playlist. Yeah game was fun for a month.

That’s a point I feel weird also…
I &o play some other FPS games, for example Warface, played 100+ matches.

Warface wasn’t fun for me, but to be honest, I never had a single time connection issue in that game. But Halo5 / Halo Infinite…

Im just using this time to get better at the power weapons, cause when the desync comes in and you unload an AR on a guy and it still doesnt kill him, might as well be productive

Maybe try in a few weeks after the S2 release. Maybe then?
I dunno… good luck with your gaming explorations and adventures :nerd_face:

Sounds more like a personal problem. That requires a personal solution.

Okay. Is there a particular reason you’re just full on fanboy defense mode?

Is this like a gag or something?

This would make an excellent tramp stamp here in the US.

Jerry hook the head designer for 343 basically tweeted out if we didn’t like halo to not play it (basically pulling a BFV dev move) but he had his tweet PR proof read and is now saying “it was a bout all forms of entertainment” even though he responded to a halo tweet and then proceeded to like a tweet that says halo fans are whiney.

I don’t know man, kids are delusional with destiny. New content is just reskinned enemies and same crap-tastic weapons. This generation of gamer and last are easily pleased. I’d give a nut to have gaming like it was in ps2 and ps3/360 days where there were new games every week. All fps games are repetitive and grow stale.
