Only a target.

from the article:
“Our player-facing term for QoL updates that land during Seasons is “Drop Pods.” And much like their ODST namesakes, these release vehicles are meant to drop in hot, just as soon as they’re ready. Our target is one Drop Pod every month, and you can expect Drop Pods to vary in scope and size.”

Everyone should already know by now that just about everything in Infinite has a “target date” and only a few things are actually announced with a confident date.

They dropped support without notice. I guess they’re focused on making nov 8th the best it can be so nobody else gets fired… I mean resigns from 343 :slightly_smiling_face:

On the plus side drop pods were mentioned in the roadmap. So I guess they’ll resume by december.

The main goal is to drop things when they’re ready, not hold things back for specific dates or intervals.

Probably got delayed, they had to move the two people working on drop pods to work on other things. It honestly feels like the can’t staff that place properly.

Yeah there was a slight issue with the Drop Pods, the ship was out of position when they launched, they overshot the planet and are slowly making their way out of the inner solar system, I believe at this point the latest Drop Pod is just passing 65803 Didymos as we speak.

Obviously the occupants of the Drop Pods are all dead at this point, they don’t have much in the way of life support.

Erm… I think there’s a roadmap of their journey through space somewhere.

Idk honestly remember when Joe Statem first said he wanted more Transparency, like 6 we want more transparencies ago. He said something about a public viewable lost of features being worked on where they are at with it. Like it was sapposed to be on Waypoint… You know whenever that things loads properly

Infinite fell deeper into hell than even the drop pods dare to go

Facts. mission replay has been ready for months now. I was hoping they’d throw it in a drop pod before nov.

Yup just chuck that I to the pile of things 343 said they wouldn’t do and end up doing…

The whole We don’t want to wait for seasons to drop content once it’s ready we want to ship it in a drop pod, that and the split screen thing, and so many things so far that they say they want to do and end up not doing it’s like they forget what they said previously…

How many times did Joe Staten say they wanted to be more Transperent also. Lol

Infinite has been abandoned I wouldn’t expect much content or updates outside of Forge.

i gues we will have to wait till the next hiring phase comes around at 343, then there’ll be some people actually working on the game again instead of the dark rooms, with dust covered keyboards and the ghost of halo’s past roaming the once bright halls, rattling the chains and saying wort instead of moaning.
