What Happened to Unlocking Everything for Free?

Really? That Halo 5 stuff all over again?

FR they treat this like it’s a job. Reach cosmetics system and ranks would go a long way to making this an enjoyable experience.

I hope pricing is adjusted before launch. BP price is perfect, but individual cosmetics should be halved. $20 for armor or $9 for emblems is nuts.
If they at least implemented progression that gives credits to the player over matches.

They never said everything would be free, they said a lot of it would be, which made me suspicious from the beginning. But quite frankly, this is way worse than I thought, literally 50% of the content is locked behind a paywall, I mean this is ridiculous. I said from the beginning that Infinite multiplayer should’ve never been F2P, its just an excuse to monetize everything and that is exactly what is happening. 343 continues to destroy the franchise.

The preferred term is “offsite backup.”

Good times. I still have my collection of 5 1/4” disks and yes even data cassettes, although I have yet to figure out where to plug the tape player into my Xbox.

I’m sure I’ll have fun with Infinite, but it sounds like I won’t be very stylish doing it.

welcome to the new world of gaming, where giving you the color white is cost 20$

This is arguably WORSE than Halo 5’s model. At least in H5 you could unlock stuff at a decent pace through just gameplay.

I’m currently reserving my thoughts beyond progression speed. I would imagine the “base set” of armor, colors and extra bits could be unlocked via campaign. I think this situation is one of the main reasons why 343 didn’t want to launch half of the game early. They delayed by a year AND cut content and are still considerably behind when it comes to a full game launch BUT have shown us they do listen and are prioritizing fixes as best they can given the situation. I have faith they will find the right balance in the near future.
