Well i’ve enjoyed it for the most part… the gameplay is good enough to at least play, though it’s not perfect as I’ve said.
The gameplay is great.

Gameplay is good but that doesn’t mean there aren’t things that could be better. Lots of things to change in my opinion but if the gameplay wasn’t good I wouldn’t be playing it.
“Stop saying your opinion”.
Lol alot of the hate is understandable and justified but this is getting kind of pathetic.

The best use for the ravager is to drop it off a cliff and find another weapon.
The gameplay is great.
It’s not perfect, but still great.

The core of this game is fun. I haven’t really felt an urge to go back to MCC.
Is there some weapon balance issues? Yes, but its not like there wasn’t in other halo games at launch.
Do I wish there were more playlists/modes/maps? yes, but what we have is fun.
Is there some choices I strongly disagree with? Definitely.
Do I think the store/challenge system is an abomination and 343 really should have known better? Yes.
I’m also using a 2 free month of gamepass deal I had to avoid paying for the campaign, as I refuse to do so until they add co-op.
But ultimately I do find myself playing the game and having fun. There is a good game here. It needs some polishing and its abusive, predatory systems removed. I am having fun though, so why should I say its not fun?

SOME of the gameplay is great. Other parts are unfinished or broken, and yeah I agree that people should be more honest about that.
Customization is a great example, because traditionally unlocking and earning cosmetics was an element of gameplay. These things still haven’t been wholly seperated, and the gameplay where customization meets with the shooty-bang-bang part is bad, actually.
you charge it up, break someone’s shields, then finish up with your secondary.
Actually a good weapon (I know, I didn’t believe it either) because you can essentially snipe people with it, and its a great anti-vehicle weapon.
Super effective anti-vehicle weapon. Try using it against a Wasp or Warthog sometimes.
Agreed.
Its odd…
What? you want it to kill on a body shot? I don’t understand.
They can just add that in later?
Actual complaints about something meaningful? nice.
The melee system is broken in general. I don’t know if its because of no collision or what, but it is crazy in this game (and not in the good way)
Alien would like to have a word with you…
Honestly, Radar is awful for gameplay, so kind of a counter to your main point here.
Regardless though, some of the core issues are simple fixes, unlike Halo 3 for example where landing shots at all is inconsistent, or like Reach with its insane amount of bloom.
I enjoy the gameplay. It’s One of the most solid core gameplay loops we’ve had at launch in a very long time. I enjoy majority of the maps available, and I enjoy the selections I’ve purchased from the shop. I am having a blast with Infinite, beta or not.
Stop trying to discredit how others are experiencing the game. It’s gaslighting, plain and simple. People are allowed to enjoy thing and form their own experiences and impressions.
I for one am tired of being made feel like I should be ashamed and embarrassed for enjoying the game and supporting it. We as a community are better than this.

For all intents and purposes, mechnically and weapons and vehicle aspects, the game is what I would call functional.
Do you really need to see those videos of Battlefield 2042 where the bullets are not even hitting when they pour 3 entire clips into a single person?
Gameplay wise, its good.
UNSC weapons always act on the more standard FPS role and most of them, they feel at home.
Sidekick- Its a sidearm, made for smaller engagements or finishing off a foe, the only real weapon that can reload in an active engagement too. Only real downside, its not really suitable for larger games like spawns in big team battle, but thats just a mode setting itself.
AR- Its just, the AR, as we expect it to be, its good close to mid, but not at longer ranges, its the best backup or support weapon of the game more or less, its why we spawn with these 2 most of the time.
Battlerifle- the ultimate all purpose weapon, its perfect at mid, but decent at close or longer ranges. Its at its 3 iteration and it feels good, solid, accuraute, and reiable. 4 shot kill feels good.
Commando- Basically a DMR with full auto, its shots are basically half as strong as one full BR burst. Its a flexible weapon that can do decent up close with full auto but does better at range, with some pacing.
Shotgun- Its a shotgun, whats to say? It has a fair spread and range, and the only major difference is the full reload vs the older individual shells.
Sniper- Its a sniper,
Rockets- Things go boom
Hydra- really its just not good for smaller arena modes, but its much stronger for large scale vehicle games. Got a few kills on wasps and banshees and both types of tanks. easily with this.
Banished- we have a mix of classic covie and new brute style weapons
Needler- its always been an all or nothing weapon, its, decent here.
Mangler- reminds me of the mauler from 3, but its a satisfying handgun, that trades speed for power.
Stalker rifle- Slighty weaker beam rifle with more shots, it does enough to seperate it from being just a sniper rifle with a battery.
Shock rifle- perhaps the most interesting new weapon overall, its like the ultimate utility weapon of the banished, yet despite its 1 hit kill ability, its still not what I would call a power weapon. Its a 4 shot 5 burst weapon, but the 1 hit kill has to be, very precise for all the bursts, but all its other powers, it can rip shields, EMP vehicles, and the chain ability to other enemies, its useful to setup for a teammate for multiple kills to, its actually the most varied new weapon in my eyes and, its quite dynamic,
Raveger- thought it would be like the spiker, but its more of a heavy burst rifle with AoE options. Not the best weapon but it has some uses.
Skwer- Its just a harpoon, but its fun to use.
Hammer and sword- practically unchanged, but still fun.
The only banished weapons that need work:
Plasma pistol- No EMP on vehicles and its primary shots are far too weak to kill in PvP, at best this is only for an EMP combo or support for a teammate
Pulse Carbine- It tries to act like the plasma rifle, carbine, and needler at once. Its not a precision weapon and its shots can brutally miss and leave you open for a reversal. usually I avoid it in multiplayer. It can get through shields easily, but its far more of a support weapon for now, than one to directly engage with.
Distruptor- Its a strange EMP type weapon with precision abilities, its supposed to do damage over time, rendering shielding out longer, like a wounding type weapon but it just seems like it doesnt really know where to sit.
Forerunner weapons:
The cindershot is just a controllable grenade launcher, the heatwave is decent, like a crossbow to a degree, its not perfect but its there.
The sentinal beam is the oddball of this group, either its too weak or it burns its ammo to fast, its more of a direct support weapon rather than a head to head one.
Gameplay itself, its fine.
Just a couple weapons may need adjustment, its more the lack of options in matchmaking itself thats the bigger issue.
The Pulse Carbine and Disruptor destroy shields quickly, and they’re not supposed to do lots of health damage because that’s the role of ballistic and precision weapons.
Halo isn’t CoD, you’re not supposed to only use one weapon.
You can have your opinion, and we can have ours.
I think the gameplay is great.
That doesn’t mean it can’t be tweaked and improved.
I think people are saying it’s great because it is - especially when compared to the XP/Challenge system, and the lack of stats and other things on waypoint. The gameplay feels fun, so let us enjoy it!
I think the gameplay is great sure theres some polishing here and there that goes with out saying but when I play I feel like im playing halo and to me thats just dandy
How about this? The gameplay IS great.
wait a minute, how about this? The gameplay is…GREAT.
I’m so confused about this post… If you dont like this 100% free to play game that is way better than Halo 4, 5 then I dont know what to tell you. The game is like a billion times better than Halo 5… like miles apart. This game is great like Halo 2 & 3 days.
I agree doesn’t make the gameplay great it just makes it good there’s blaring issues
