Burning through the Season 3 pass, just hit level 63. Should be 100 today or tomorrow.

Having a lot of fun too along the way.

Now, no Campaign DLCs, I get it. But spit screen Co-op? co-op and split screen for infinite already came! i saw some video footage of both of them!

Pretty good over all I suppose. The maps are good and the bandit rifle has a good feel when using it. Hopefully future maps keep getting better.

Other than footsteps being reduced heavily , i have no issue. Its thrown me off tremendously.

Season 3 seems alright, just not sure why I’m suddenly experiencing lag/frame issues on my xbox series x. Feels stuttery and bad, but I’ve only played on the new maps so far.

The banshee hasn’t changed from the start of season 2 from what I’ve experienced, it’s just more exposure to using a banshee finally got people to figure out what works well.

I think I’m getting too much XP per game…
Outside of the challenges… I just got

100xp for owning the battle pass
150xp for completing a match
50xp for finishing top 50%
50 xp for winning the game
50 xp for MVP

400 XP equates to two or three games per tier on the battle pass…

no wonder @General_Fox Fox is on tier 63

They are being rather generous with the XP but people seem to like it.

If the player count drops off once people have finished the pass, then it’s a problem. Otherwise it just lets more people unlock more things. Only 343i will have that data though.

Don’t forget your bonus 500XP for the first game too.

I have a thought on these settings been reset when you equip the new armour…

I was rocking the Rakshasa yesterday so I had no issues. Today I equipped the Mirage core and restarted the game.

Weirdly enough the season 3 cut scenes started all over again as if I was playing for the first time. Then starting my first game my setting were defaulted.

This is the strange part… and me theorising an on going issue…

This has been happening to me from the beginning of Infinites release back in 2021. On occasion when I play this game as if by magic at certain points I can’t aim everything is off. But it only happens within sections of the game or the odd game and its not permanent. After experiencing this current settings bug on Season 3 I will swear blind that this is an existanting bug but has come more relevant with the equipping of the cosmetics. There is no way my aim can change instantly without the change of a setting or two…

But until now I haven’t been able to put my finger on it.

People on here have said its the system forcing people to play poorly so we get a 50/50 win ratio. but I am now convinced its just a flaw in the system and not something that’s intended maliciously or deviously.

I am at a loss.

Looking at my games I’ve played 12 games and done 7 Tiers. I haven’t played any Ranked yet. At this rate I think I’ll do 10 tiers a week… if I try and play little.

Not that it matters as it is only cosmetics but I reckon most will have done the battle pass in a month.

I’ve done 8 tiers from 17 games. I’ve been slowed down a little by the fact I have only won 4 of them.

I’ll easily complete it before the end of the season without using a double XP which is ideal I suppose.

I’m 97 now on the battle pass. I’ll be 100 today lol. Only took 3 days to complete the entire thing!

I didn’t win the last game and still managed to pull off 300xp…

You are the winner!!!

I really like it. The new maps are all good. Love the MIRAGE core. I like the Bandit rifle a lot. In the previews I was kinda iffy about the shroud screen, but getting an opportunity to use it now, I think it adds to the sandbox and can have some good uses in game. Gun game is a fun party mode and it’s a plus that it’s in. I feel like this might be the turning point for Infinite. It feels like there’s a decent amount of content now and if we’re gonna start getting seasons every 3 or 4 months and they all have a similar amount of content as this, I think the game will finally be on track. Took a lot longer than it should have, but I think the game might finally be in a solid place. Still work to do, still issues, but the game is not in bad shape, IMO.

I think Season 3 is actually alright. I like the new maps. They are refreshing and kind of fun. I also like the Bandit and the Shroud. Overall, this was a much better update then the previous ones that have been released.

I’m still experiencing desync at random times though. Melees not connecting, I had to reload my weapon twice in a row a few times, and I’m still getting killed even after I have turned a corner or found cover. I also am not a fan of even more Armor Cores. There’s going to be dozens and dozens of Armor Cores with only a set amount of cosmetics coming out for each one. This does allow a few different Core ideas but if all of the cosmetics for all the Cores could be put on one Core, I would be several times more satisfied with this customization scheme.

Escalation Slayer isn’t exactly an amazing game type but it can be fun when the teams are evenly matched. Otherwise, it’s usually just a steamrolling from one side or the other, as usual.

yeah i mean it seems like over time it seem to be close to 50/50 for most people but I dont believe theres anything malicioous either. We all have good games and bad games and even time of day can effect me personally. theres plenty of people out there to dispute the 50/50 theory. right now im on a 20 wins in 25 games winning streak (80%) win rate and i attribute it to a lot of practice and luck of the draw with good teamates but i dont think the “game” is trying to boost me or hold me down. a few lucky grenades can win you the game of king of the hill and the game certainly cant account for everyones individual performace on a certain game mode, time of day, connection speed, mood, gaming chair…i think its pretty random. looking forward to this season. on a side note sad to see the forum shuting down.

Oasis is a good map. So is Cliffhanger. Jury’s still out on Chasm though.

I’m rather surprised they allow you to play Infection in custom games before the speculated event mode is made.

It’s a fun mode though. Zombies look like Spartans with the Red AI covering their faces, there are Alpha Zombies as well as Beta Zombies, Alpha’s red ai mask like thing is larger. They are perma active camo’d as well, but the Red stuff is visible even when invisible. They run faster and jump higher too. Equipement for the Zombies that I saw were Shroud and Dash abilities.

Human’s, at least in the server I played I guess I should add Spawn with Sidekicks and Shotguns. I think precision weapons are too much since Zombies have no shields I was massacring them with the Side kick lol. Killing groups of them in seconds. Feel the shotgun was way more fair lol. The map ( Bazaar ) had a few weapon/item spawns, Commando and Over charge was what I saw.

Was fun, but as I said humans had a huge advantage till the side kicks ammo ran out ( limited ammo for weapons on the server I was in ).

Wondering if the official modes will fair any differently.

Screenshoted my Score at the end, I was the victor of the match:
