Anyone wonder what Halo Infinite would have launched with before they delayed the game? With the state of it right now I’m seriously trying to figure out what the hell would have been in it considering how bare bones this game is now
Content

Think there was quite a bit more that was supposed to be there, even campaign alot of it cut cut
Do you really need to ask? Considering what we have right now is already pretty lame, it would be what we have now but lamer.
The store… And the main menu
Not only what you asked, but I’m wondering how much content was cut to be sold later that will be just as barebone seeing 343 work so far.
Bungie pulled this same BS so they could drip-feed content, leaving the games stale that Activision had to help them to save the game from dying. The problem with infinite is it’s not a game like Destiny that will have a lot of content nor will it ever have a loot system like Destiny that actually offers at least something to the players. It just has a stupid shop, and a weak at best BP.
I don’t think the delay actually resulted in added content, rather its purpose was focused graphics on graphics and stability. So I assume it would’ve launched with the same amount of content but uglier and more broken.
I’m guessing there were a lot of issues but possibly more so because of graphics. If I recall correctly, the pre-release footage got absolutely hammered for looking so poor and soon after they decided to announce the 12 month delay.
It was campaign only.
Store, 1 BtB map, 1 arena map, and slayer.
Same game they just realised they had no content after release.
“What was this game going to release with before the delay?”
A screenshot…
And 343i would’ve said it’s the best Halo ever.
^A broken campaign featuring fps drops and massive amounts of noclipping through the floor.
^5 Multiplayer PVP maps with 2 more coming post launch!!!
^Even less customization options.
^A fully working shop which would be the main attraction of Halo Infinite!
Well they had 6 years and this is the finished product lmao. Yet 343 is patting each other on the back job while done when this game was barely stapled together.
I don’t even think the game was playable a year ago ![]()
At this point we are watching a train wreck and the loyal Halo fans just can’t look away.
Will it derail?
Perhaps catch on fire?
Or in a weird twist of fate make a recovery.
Season 2 needs to be massive because what we are seeing now Is an unimaginative hollow game with no signs of life.
I’ve said this before but in the end 343i either kills the franchise here or pulls through the other side.
A textureless Zeta Halo with “Content” written in the sky while the Weapon hums the
soundtrack softly in your ear.
Content.
Like actual content. But due to the delay, they have to penny-squeeze as much as they cannow to make up for lost income and then some.
I am so frustrated by the lack of content and updates from 343. They are slow walking this game with no long term road map and plans.
Promises are made then rolled back. They slowly drip out content here and there. I’m sorry but 1 arena map and 1 BTB map a season isn’t going to cut it. The game and playlists are bare bones. I love the game play but the same maps and modes are getting really stale.
