War Master in the shop again this Season

Dunno.
Either way, we were only sold the helmet and the rest was made to be BP filler for the next Season.
I don’t even know if that stance is available yet, but then again I don’t focus much on stances and more on the armor my Spartan is wearing.

Artificial rarity in a nutshell. Surprised Warmaster even returned, unless they’re just out of content already. Second half of Season 1 was all recycled, even knowing how much content is now unavailable, locked behind vaulting.

I actually surmise that the whole “Rarity” thing is actually going to apply to something returning . . .

REQ Packs.

War Zone was a popular mode.
And REQ Packs have a reputation as being one of the best systems of Lootboxing in videogame history, you know, on account of it never giving you a duplicate for your cosmetics?

I bet that we will soon see REQ Packs make a return once War Zone is announced.
We will get something like 1 cosmetic for a Bronze Pack, 2 for a Silver Pack, and 3 for a Gold Pack.
So we will be spending our Infinite Credits on REQ Packs for a raffle of items we don’t have yet, while the weekly featured store will offer us items direct-for-purchase.

The UA/Vorenus shoulders you get in rank 74 and 75 were supposed to be in the Firefall bundle. People figured that out because they were the only Mark VII shoulders that were seen on bots during season 1, but were never in the shop (and the Firefall bundle was the only leaked season 1 bundle for the Mark VII core that was never released).

Also, when you had not unlocked level 74 and 75 and you went to the shoulder section in the Mark VII core and you checked these shoulders, they had the message they were released during season 1. :grin:

Anyone else notice the fact that the shop isn’t selling mark VII armor cosmetics or mark V(B) armor cosmetics anymore? Either that or very very rarely, if anything I think it’s kind of a dumb move, they should sell all the parts that have been released to begin with, Not vault everything permanently… now, I can completely understand them vaulting the fracture tenrai gear permanently (because it was exclusive to the event) but to permanently vault gear that wasn’t significant to any event is dumb. Be it mark VII or mark V(B).

I bet $50 bucks they’re gonna stop selling rakshasa armor cosmetics once season three releases.

Now, I liked the idea of req packs on halo 5, them being free and all because you earned ingame currency. BUT the concept of them adding req packs and the only way to buy them is credits is completely horrendous… the point of req packs are to be earned, not bought with real money. It defeated the purpose of req packs at that point, might as well buy from the shop at that point. I’d rather spend cash on a definite item and not a raffle in case I get a p.o.s item that I didn’t like in the first place. But even then I haven’t spent a dime on this game yet.

To summarize, req packs are to be earned, not bought. And if they even think of putting them behind a real cash paywall they might as well not even put them in the game.

If there’s anyone left to buy it at this rate…

I’d like to see the store sell things in a fictional halo currency and sell things like rubbish stuff that you might like. A bit like Xur from Destiny.

Lmao ain’t that true XD everyone has lost faith to begin with, halo infinite is 343is cash grab, they are no worse than Mobil game devs that use a thicc booty to advertise their game XD OH WAIT 343 REMOVED CHEEKS TOO :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

343i where’s the reach cheeks, they are the main part of the game, they’re a need!

Plus, all that cash people use for this game could be used for things more worth while. I’m ordering some mods for my challenger and some pipes for my motorcycle, once I get them ordered and applied I’ll send some details if anybody is interested!!! Especially if they have a car or bike they wanna mod! I could send some performance lists!

Well, not the case actually.

During a Season, the Armor Core that is presented for that season is to be the one that receives the most attention.
We will still see the release of content outside of that Season for other contents.
Mark V and CQB are leaked to be releasing this season for the Mark V Bravo.

What 343 Industries is doing is ensuring that every Armor Core will eventually have new stuff to obtain.
After all, we only have 3/4 of the total contents that Reach had to obtain.
Imagine getting an Armor Core and then never seeing anything new for it for the rest of the game’s lifetime.
They are ensuring that if you obtained the Mark V Bravo or the Rakshasa Armor Cores, you will still see things for them later on in the shops.

As for the Mark VII, that being the default Armor Core unlocked by literally everyone; it therefore will always have some sort of focus on it in the shop of every season.

But as they add new Armor Cores to the game, they will need to rework the shop.
Imagine wanting to have new stuff for the Mark V Bravo, but because there are now 7 Main Canon Armor Cores and 1 Fractures Armor Core available during the current season, you only see one week of the current season dedicated to Mark V Bravo stuff in the shop . . . . and it is already something you own?

The shop system N E E D S a definitive rework.

Ye, I gotcha, just still sucks I gotta pay for stuff I used to earn free from previous games. But yeah I completely understand that they’re building it overtime. Pretty solid. But yeah, and I completely agree the shop needs so much work…. I really hope infinite gets on the right track.

In due time Studio 117 will fix this mess.
