You do know that with 200cR you can level up rank. Meaning you can buy your way through the battle pass instead of unlocking the content through playing.
$0.00ā¦ still want cosmetics though and earnable in-game currency.
$10 for the pass, at least when it isnt as grindy.
Although i see why its so long to level up, they dont want people completing a battle pass in like a week, when the next one releases in May
I could see myself dropping $20 here and there for a compelling bundle. But right now, the big bundle thatās currently in the store isnāt compelling at all. Right now the $20 bundle has a stance, armor color, helmet, helmet attachment, visor color, and four misc. armor pieces. If they were to add the Sentinelās Blades armor item and the Sixth Gate Loyalty armor pieces to the big bundle, Iād be willing to drop $20-$25 on it.
But the big bundle is kinda trash for 2000 credits.
Basically: The three armor bundles on the shop right now should probably just be rolled together for a single $20 purchase.
343i has said that this is going to be the Halo game they support for the next 10+ years. In that same Vidoc they said that the ring world would change and new enemies and story will be added down the line. Iām guessing weāll get an expansion once a year like Destiny.
Stand alone single-player games have been getting expansions/DLC since the 90ās. This isnāt something new or outrageous.
Which doesnāt render any of that content unable to be earned in-game. Itās a weak technicality but the difference between what is and isnāt often comes down to such things.
My time. The cost of the game should have been enough.
For me itāll live or die by the quality/replay value of whatās offered. Paid expansions are nothing new to gaming, but theyāre somewhat out of step with an FPS title. Seems like theyāre trying to marry Halo with something like Wildlands or Breakpoint, which Iām not against as long as the content is solid.
If something i wanted, maybe half wihat they are asking?
Granted, at least it is a direct āpay x get yā so theres no random rng to what yoj get so i do appreciate that faxt bit still, 20 is a tad high imo.

$0.00. All-time.
Itās literally pennies to them, but I refuse to participate in this FTP monetization scheme.

Cut everything in half and Iāll be more willing to talk. Iām fine with a 10 USD pass if they add more to it but spending the same amount on a smaller bundle that I do on the pass is more than ridiculous.
Everything is twice as expensive as it should be.
I shouldnāt be able to buy progression, they are adding in FOMO and bad progression to make people spend money.
I wanna support 343i and Iām willing to spend so much money in this game like I have with other F2P games on PC, but they just donāt know how to do it without making it obvious they are milking the players.
How many armor pieces did we get for free in Reach again? You would think we would have twice that 11 years later with a larger budget. At least give a good amount of free armor (more than Reach) to people who buy the campaign. (Not Game Pass). This will add substantial value to the single player, even to people who normally wouldnāt care about it very much.
Iād pay $15, maybe $20 for the more exotic stuff like the cherry blossom armor effect and kill effects, the current $20 bundles Iād purchase both of them right now if they were $10, I donāt think Iād buy any of the smaller bundles, Iād like to buy individual pieces or coatings for a dollar, maybe 2 for the legendary or epic ones, that way I can cherry pick what I really want, but I donāt want to spend $5-$7 when all I want is a pair of shoulder pieces.
Considering the MP is free Iād probably be willing to pay $10 for a cool set of armor every now and then. Right now itās WAY too pricey.
However, I think there should be separate sets of rewards for people who want to pay for them, and those that are achieved through in-game skill / merit.
I do not see the appeal of paying for things over earning them, and I kind of hate thatās the way video games are going these days. Maybe thereās a way to have both things.
Well seeing as you canāt combine any earned or bought cosmetics in one single armor Iām not buying anything any more. Who the hell thought it was a good idea to make different armor āsetsā that you cannot combine? Like wtf? Also if I buy a color scheme I want it to be available for all armors. Not just one. Thought Iād have a cool orange/black armor and a black EVA helmetā¦ guessed wrong. Your armor customization is -Yoink!-.
I think Iām willing to pay $0 for the current customization and monetization system.
Iām willing to pay full price for the actual game here on offer. If this game cost $60, Iād buy it no questions asked. But the current system for battle pass and customization is so incredibly bad that I donāt believe anything being offered is worth its asking price - for me personally, itās not even close.
As things are right now, nothing until the glaring issues are fixed. If they offered an option to customize specific armor pieces together for a one time price instead of having the coating apply to the whole armor I would consider that.
$10 for a Armour (full set), coating and emblem pack (maybe $12-15 if there are weapon coatings included)
$10 for an entire vehicle coating pack, customization and emblem pack
$8 for event packs that include a piece of Armour, coating/vehicle coating and emblem
$5 for a Armour/vehicle coating and 1 piece of Armour I.E. pair of shoulders/vehicle part
$2-3 for a emblem and single weapon skin pack
$1 for coatings Armour, vehicle or weapon
Challenge skips and double XP packs should have 1-2 more of each in them and the level skips should be 100 credits not 200
Free currency on the pass/enough credits on there to cover the next BP like every other games BP, regular free packs doesnāt have to be anything fancy and the ability to earn Amour, coatings etc through normal gameplay (Campaign and MP through Achievements like the good old days)
nothing, not even a penny. even for a split lip or johnsonā¦ i aināt paying a cent
