They don’t want a bj, they just want $1000 and you can have all the customization you used to love… Except colors… And customizable emblems… And distinguishable body types… And you’ll still have to wait for features to be added like forge and saving custom games.
Shocked by the lack of gratitude? What do you expect people to be happy that 343 released a game with a garbage MP thats not finished that they worked on for 6 years with 2 delays?
Really its the best and it works? What about the:
Desync
Cheaters
Bugged Hit reg
Bugged Aim assist
Terrible servers
BTB being unplayable
Overpricing of armor, emblems and colors in $20 bundles in the store
Ranked progression being terrible
And A LOT MORE to list
Its not the minority of the community complaining when EVERYONE is talking about it with YouTube vids and reddit posts showing the same issues and 343 addressing them too that they plan on fixing it.
Yeah the game modes will be added in time as content, look at the fiesta mode it was released as content for the fracture event. When these modes should’ve been here at launch not later.
343 is made up of new people and EX-BUNGIE DEVS who decided to stay with Halo and not move on with the rest of Bungie to make Destiny 1 (GODLY GAME) and Destiny 2 (Not as great).
343 was created in talk with Bungie and Microsoft because the 10 year contract was close to ending and a company was needed for when Bungie left and so 343 was established in July 2007 2 months before Halo 3 was released in September 2007. So that means 343 was there for the entirety of Halo 3, Halo Wars, Halo 3 ODST and Halo Reach. So yeah its comparable and not that different because those Ex- Bungie Devs in 343 were there for Halo 3 to Reach and most likely in Halo CE and 2 and before 343 was first established.
Bungie left Reach ealry after making one DLC (NOBLE PACK) when the contract ended. The other 2 DLCs (DEFIANT and ANNIVERSARY) we got were made by 343 and they manged the rest of the Halo 360 servers from 2010 - 2022.
The Armor customization is advanced? Really?
Because in the Heroes of Reach pass yeah its cool we got kits for Noble team but we don’t have some of the armor to customize with. Carter’s kit has the commando shoulder on his left shoulder but we can’t put that on our customized spartan.
In Emile’s Kit on his left shoulder to get that armor you have to buy it from the store when it was available those pieces should be in the pass and the Default chest piece for Reach which is Noble 6s chest piece you have to buy that from the store too.
Also is it really advanced that colors aren’t universal? There are colors in the BP that only apply to the MK V (B) armor core and if we want that same color on the MK VII and Yoroi core we have to pay a $10 bundle for just the color blue and etc. to only go on ONE CORE and if we want to get it on another core we have to buy another bundle just for a color.
Of course the armor looks better than Halo 4 and 5 because 343 listened to the community about us not liking the art style that they made for those Halos and wanted it back as Halo 3 and Reach where it looked better.
Its not that people are whining about not having cross core customization its that 343 said Infinite will have Reach style customizations. They lied and limit us to only customize certain armor pieces to only certain armor cores and same colors are only limited to certain cores.
They’re finally lowering the overpriced store prices after so many people talking about it and making videos about it.
Yeah these are right steps but they have A LONG WAY to go.
We’ve been playing the game and HALO enough, MORE than enough actually to understand things fully and see the issues that 343 have made with infinite and the issues I’ve listed for you which I experienced from playing Halo enough.
Although the game looks really great what people are talking about negatively in the forums are the issues with the multiplayer and the store not the campaign (Which is great by the way and 10x better than Halo 5 campaign).
But even in the campaign we didn’t get Deers, Rhinos and Biomes but people who are truly halo fans aren’t complaining of things like that (although it should’ve had different biomes in the campaign) bc we’re not the cod players that complained about the fruits on bazarr not having fruit physics. I didn’t care that they didn’t have that when I played in a match because who is paying attention to that in a social or ranked match. The fact that 343 actually listened and gave the fruits physics is appalling.
Yeah people are not happy about it because it took them 6 years to make infinite with 2 delays and this is what they delivered this big garbage mess that’s incomplete this is what we expected from a game that took 2 years to make not 6 years with 2 delays. They were even planning on dropping the game a lot earlier but the community told 343 to take more time on making the game. When have you ever heard a community tell their favorite game company to take more time on making a game, because we didn’t want an incomplete game thats a bugged mess with barely anything in it.
Do you blame us for being angry at 343?
Be patient, really? We have been patient for 6 years with 2 delays for this game to only be given something incomplete and buggy.
This game will be fixed 2-3 years later. Have you not seen what happened with MCC and Halo 5?
MCC released back in 2014 the MP was unplayable it took hours and I MEAN HOURS AND HOURS stuck in queue to find a match. I don’t mean 1 or 2 hours I mean 5 - 6 hours and even then you were lucky just to get in 1 match a day. It took 343 4 YEARS to fix mcc when they released Reach with crossplay with pc players in it. Because they had to maintian the numbers for pc players since they were introducing them to MCC through Steam and the xbox app on PC.
Halo 5 released back in 2015 was fixed 2 - 3 years later.
The req system was terrible you can argue that the stuff can be earned without spending money but people emptied their bank accounts into the req system and it made warzone unplayable bc of how unbalanced it became from people who had better variants of weapons and vehicles that they spent money on.
The Social and ranked playlist were all comp. The gamemodes infection, fiesta, grifball, actionsack and etc cane out years later released as content.
Hey look at that we’re back to talking about gamemodes that should’ve been at launch being released as content too in Halo 5 a game that came out 7 years ago.
Ranked had so many glitches especially the start glitch in Halo 5. People used this drity trick and you look fine on your screen and on someone else’s you looked like you lagged or teleported.
How this glitch worked is when traveling at a fast speed such as slide jumping past a croner you press the start button and quickly press start again to unpause. For some reason when you press start the game trys to pause you in the MP match thinking its campaign but unpauses you realizing its multiplayer. So thats why on someone else’s screen it looks like you lagged or teleported because thats the game pausing you like camapign but unpausing you because it realizes you’re in multiplayer.
This glitch never existed in Halo 3 or Reach, its actually a glitch I’d expect come out of an older game not a newer one during that time and how advanced technology was to what was used for Halo 3 and Reach.
The negative posts that people make regarding the issues with infinite’s MP are constructive and necessary feedback how do you think the lowering of the store prices was achieved by the same people posting about it you’re welcome for that btw.
Its one thing if people are harassing others with toxic comments and its another to argue back against someone else of what they believe.
Our reasonings are unstable? Us coming into the forums and addressing issues with the game is unstable what about your comment with
How is yours stable? You provide no feedback and just cater to this mess 343 has been doing for years.
You say we only see half the picture and you see the full picture? If we were as blind as you to defend this terrible mess of a game. All the issues with the game that we’ve addressed and 343 addressed from us would continue to persist in the game. The store would still be overpriced, BTB would’ve been fixed 5 - 6 months later instead of this patch they promise for this February.
MCC servers would’ve never been fixed.
Halo 5 would’ve never been fixed either and still would only have comp playlists in socials and ranked and the Req system would’ve probably been even more HEAVILY influenced.
So don’t blame us for giving negative feedback on infinite when the game you love to blindly defend so much provides the evidence. Which we saw and found from playing the game enough.
seem to be … Infinite.
I wish I could double heart your comment, and pin it to the front of the forums my friend.
How can you admit the game is incomplete and then berate people for complaining about that? There is zero logic in your post, OP.
343i may not come out and say it, but it easily looks that way, and other people use this tactic frequently, car dealerships in particular will scam you given the chance.
The game is… decent, it has potential, but compared to ANY other Halo game, what is currently offered is multiple steps backwards.
I will not be grateful for it merely existing and having “potential”, you’re supposed to improve your works over time.
This game should’ve started great, and worked from there, not released like this, and now struggling to do things 343i would probably have experience with already.
Case in point: The potential of the personalization system is amazing, but horrendously marred by the fact nearly everything is paywalled, essentially nothing to earn or unlock and something as simple as the colors red and blue cost $7.
There is 1 helmet you can unlock for the Mk. VII core at BP lvl 96(ish) every other helmet must be bought.
They could’ve easily made that a free core to earn cosmetics for and had the Reach one paywalled and the Yaroi be a mix and I’d reckon it would’ve been far more popular than what’s currently offered.
This is nonsense.
343i:
-
Lied about the progression system and blocked content behind a 2nd paywall
-
The games are not as original as you claim
-
Lowering the prices while giving no option to earn items and possibly removing unlockables from campaign
-
Day 1? they shouldn’t have been released on ‘day’ 1 and it’s widely stated the game was rushed and it was only a year ago that they planned to release the game in an even worse state.
To say that people shouldn’t criticise any game is ridiculous and to tell people to just be patience when the dev’s have made it pretty clear that there not interested in putting the player 1st…makes me wonder why should I care about playing further. I’d go as far as saying this thread is actually more toxic because it encourages people to ignore the complaints and blindly except whatever 343i puts in front of us.
I see “half the picture” and more…what I see is you just trying to rationalise a very bad situation and making poor excuses for them. Have they apologised for lying? no, have they made any attempt to say they know this wasn’t ready? no. You can claim it’s the minority…which is an obvious lie because the population on viewers and players are both down on Steam and Twitch and I have no doubts whatsoever that the population is down on Xbox or Microsoft store.
