What if Infinite was a FULL SINGLEPLAYER game?

Games Halo Infinite
1

There wasn’t any news that Halo Infinite will have multiplayer. Every info we get about Halo has mainly been about the campaign. What they do with the story, the art design, no micro-transactions, more focus on Master Chief, game engine shown in what i assume campaign, even co-op (I know its multiplayer, but its in a single player experience, possibly only multiplayer there is) all resembles to a single player game. If our theories are right and Halo turns into an RPG, many RPG games dont mix with general multiplayer.

With the current state of the Halo lore and Halo 5 story, could you blame them for primarily focusing on only Halo campaign?

That being said, if Halo Infinite turns out to be a full blown RPG style game to focus on the lore with the acceptation of co-op multiplayer and nothing else, would you play it? Or does Halo live with the multiplayer?

I believe this was debunked, I read we’re getting a regular Halo with a campaign and multi player. Also, what’s this about no micro transactions ? 343i confirmed no loot boxes, they said nothing about no micro transactions.

Honestly, if they did this, there would need to be a lot of campaign!

I agree with that. However I don’t see it happening, I used to think it was on the cards, there’s a rumour Cyberpunk might be doing this and some fans including me thought it would be good if Halo did it. But, many buy Halo for the multiplayer, players would log onto Halo Infinite and go straight for multiplayer. I think we’ll get a regular Halo with both campaign and multiplayer.

I look at them the same thing. What else is there to buy in a console game besides DLC and loot boxes?

I don’t know what you mean with that reply. Loot boxes, DLC and micro transactions are different things.

But if it is a single player only, I dont think 343i would make the campaign like every other Halo campaign. Like i said, if could be an RPG. Meaning the campaign possibly can be an open world with multiple opportunities to keep players coming back to learn more.

What do you think the multiplayer player fans would do ? 343i would lose players.

I mean, in a console game, every general game has microtransactions for DLC. But the other things you can buy in a multiplayer like Halo or CoD besides DLC are loot boxes. If it were an RPG game, microtransactions have armor and weaponry and cosmetics as well.

In this game, we are talking about microtransactions multiplayer like Halo/CoD. Meaning the only other thing we can buy besides DLC, are loot boxes. So in this circumstance, loot boxes and microtransactions are the same thing. Because the only microtransaction anyone can get in multiplayer like Halo/CoD games are loot boxes. Which in conclusion, makes microtransactions and loot boxes the same at these standards.

I think they would play the campaign. I know a majority of the fans are in it for campaign too. And if there are a lot to do, players would come back.

No. The micro transaction is the act of buying loot boxes, cosmetic DLC and other DLC. These are different things, and it’s another topic. As far as this topic goes, 343i stated no loot crates, they said nothing about no micro transactions.

No, they would not play the campaign. The RPG crowd and the FPS multiplayer crowd are very different imo. There are players that buy Halo for multiplayer, there are players that prefer campaign and some like both. I don’t see 343i taking a huge risk like that. I’m not against a Halo RPG, but I don’t think Halo Infinite will be an RPG. It may be open world ish, but I think it will be a Halo with campaign and multiplayer.

You are correct. Frankie has confirmed that multiplayer is in development, and it almost seems like it’s actually in a playable state.

As for op’s comment about microtransactions, they’ve been included in every game since Halo 2. It’s safe to say that they’re not going anywhere.

14

If it was good I would play it. Not gonna miss out on an awesome game just because it didn’t have one thing I wanted. They wouldn’t do that though.

By the way, they never said no mtx, just no purchasable loot boxes. There 100% will no doubt be mtx.

15

Halo would be torn apart.

16

Halo without multiplayer would be blasphemous lol

17

It wouldn’t be too impressive. But as I said before I doubt Infinite will be a game as much as it would be a platform like the MCC. Now of course the first game on that platform will be the 6th installment of the Master Chief halo game, but they could add in some more single player spin-off games to that platform. How about a campaign where you play as a Brute?

18

They said there’s going to be split screen, so I don’t know what you’re talking about. Also it’s not been confirmed in any form (no hints, no gestures, no statements) that it will be an RPG or even open world. A while back I said that people need to stop saying that it’s “been confirmed that Infinite is open world”. No. It hasn’t. The trailer shows animals, and so naturally everyone loses their minds.

I don’t see why not saying anything about multiplayer (besides split screen) means there will be none. Right now they need to be focusing on the campaign (like they are) because the biggest blunder in Halo 5 was the campaign. So it’s only good marketing to reassure people that they’ve learned from their biggest mistake.

Am I missing something? Who said it would be open world?

19

Halo series started sort of like a Singleplayer game with Halo CE,there was just a split-screen kind of multiplayer.Just like good old Goldeneye on Nintendo 64,i remember having so much fun in that game with 4 player split-screen 2v2.That’s all i needed,no need for online multiplayer.

20

I would probably be done with the halo franchise if is a full blown rpg and was only campaign.Im a massive single player fan,but halo has gained its popularity from multiplayer and if you take that out that would drive away alot of its already dwindling playerbase
