It seems like the biggest complaints are lack of a true rank system and the in game store. What is your opinion on the actual gameplay of halo infinite? Just curious if everyone has a similar opinion on it or if 343 should change it.

The actual gameplay is great. I feel it’s that right balance between Halo’s 2 and 5.
And then the equipment lends itself to lots of possibilities.
Loving it.
And the rank system is fine from my end. No system is perfect - but most people’s complaints seem a bit exaggerated or unrealistic.
The store. Overpriced a bit. But meh, it is what it is.

I’m sorry the biggest complaint is the desync

I’m not a huge fan of how the aiming feels. It’s hard to say specifically what it is about it that feels off; I don’t make games. It just doesn’t feel quite as satisfying as prior Halo games. I’m also not a big fan of (excessive) bloom in Halo, but that ship has sailed apparently. A lot of the banished weapons could probably use a buff and the sniper is still very frustrating to use. Grenades feel too weak for my taste, and the throwing arc is much lower than I prefer. But in general the gameplay is very solid and fun.

the game is absolutely wonderful when everything works like it’s supposed to. unfortunately the netcode makes so much of it inconsistent and I hope they fix it sooner rather than later

I’m thoroughly enjoying the game, there are issues that are frustrating (no collision, aiming doesn’t feel great in certain situations, grenade/shot/melee registration, vehicles in btb, to name a few that come immediately to mind). I’ll keep playing the game for the foreseeable future and hope things improve.
The gameplay is fine over all but the netdode needs some serious overhaul hit registry is a mess collsion needs fixed, vehicles like the warthog need to not tip over so much… snipers need to do less damage to vechiles (not counting the skewer, even though it’s for some reason considered a sniper weapon.

MP isn’t bad from what I’ve played though the real fun was always the Custom Games and crazy Forge maps.
Campaign I really like how the open world compliments Halo’s free-form combat encounters.

good but nothing special after 6 freaking years. To nail the gameplay it didn’t take geniuses. In fact, they could have done more… they had the MCC, h4 and h5 feedback.
The fcked up vehicles are another topic. I play ranked only.
My opinion is the game needs a hell of a lot of work that will never happen.
343 doesn’t plan on changing their “new model”. So with that flawed logic and how the game is very low when it comes to quality content. I really don’t see any hope for this game until like a year or two from now, and that is if we are lucky. By then there will have been way too much damage done to the game.
Everything is going to be based around the shop and that is really bad news for the player base. The battle pass has done absolutely nothing to contributing to the game evolving.
Games are supposed to move forward not backwards, and knowing 343 has had over a decade, it’s actually pretty pathetic they took this route.
I like it, i like the feel of the guns and all that but i feel like the variety is very lacking with what i can use in a map but also whats there? like i dont see the stalker rifle anywhere and some guns from the other games should of def made a come back
also the fact the vehicles are lacking too
If the ping desync netcode garbage gets fixed, a few weapons get slight buffs and nerfs, and make the Thrusters like Halo 5 with momentum, it will be the best Halo multiplayer imo. It’s already very balanced unlike 3 and Reach where the BR and DMR were the only weapons worth using. It just needs some tweaks, fixes, and Forge, and it’ll be my favorite Halo, followed by those other two.
As for progression, campaign, customization, and the store, that’s a whole different story.

Did you adjust your dead zones?
I love the gameplay in the two game modes with BR starts… Ranked and SWAT.
Do not like the magnum spam in AR modes.
BTB is awful and unplayable for a variety of reasons.
The netcode is the worst I’ve seen in a shooter, possibly ever.
So yeah… a couple things I love, lots of things I think need major revisions/improvements.

Honestly for me, the only thing that needs addressing is the netcode. Bullet lag is too real. But other than that, I love it.
you mean the gameplay that rarely works? in this state it’s dog water.

How do you say T R A S H in Sangheili?
Is it WORT WORT WORT or WORT WORT?
In all seriousness, Halo 5 has better gameplay and balancing right now when compared to Halo Infinite. Yes It took years for Halo 5 to improve, but thats 343 dropped the ball and released an unfinished product.
Halo Infinite is going to improve massively over time, but it wouldn’t need to if 343 had there WORT together ; As of now, 343 Industries has ALOT to work on.
-
They need to stop focusing on just the in game shop.
-
Remove locked cross core customization.
-
Add older weapons from Halo 5 and the MCC.
-
Improve the challenge system and stop with the recycled rewards.
-
Balance out the game play, from Rank matches - too giving the player base the option to OPT. out of Crossplay.
-
Add an ANTI-Cheat system
-
Fix the score board / leader board so you see who is first to last.
-
Add a Block / Ignore system.
I can go on and on, but you guys can add onto it yourselves.

I fell the game is purposely frustrating and layered with unnecessary restrictions.
delays in switching weapons
delays in throwing grenades
Too few maps
Too few game modes
Dont like the switching between AR and BR for quickmatch/ranked…pick one and be done.
Time to Kill is slightly too high imo I hate being almost out of ammo every single kill
the driving of vehicles is still bad after all these years.
way too much grenade tossing(i know it’s Halo)just never liked that aspect of it.
it is simply to restrictive/limiting of players.
I dont like picking up abilities…i think it worked better with everyone having the same abilities at all time.
I feel the needler has zero place in multiplayer
I dislike basically all the alien weapons
the shotgun is too weak
the commando is horrible
sniper feels great
AR feels great
BR feels great
Just hard to go back to what i consider dated gameplay but it is an old franchise and people are used to it so…
I don’t like never talking to the other team
I don’t like not having proper stat tracking at all.
The game honestly feels like a chore often or that the game itself is fighting me as hard as the other team.
oh and I haven’t played BTB in days now…simply can’t connect at all.
store is horrible and battle pass is as well.
Basically dont even attempt to complete challenges unless I can swap them out as all the basic ones I get are game modes I dont feel like playing at all at the moment.
Too little slayer and way too much capture the flag for me personally.

I think it feels fine, aside from all the desync and hit reg issues in this game. Behemoth is a terrible map for any type of mode.
Big Team Battle needs to be BR starts. Plus let’s add in that vehicles spawn near the end of the match. Power weapons from random drops like Halo 4 infinity slayer randomly on the map. Power weapons and equipment spawn quick. The maps are not vehicle friendly.
Casual playlists are missing BR start modes, it’s just WOW… that they don’t have the option there.
Only 1 ranked playlist? You kidding me 343?
Lack of fun game modes, and firefight.
They need balance changes to the majority of the sandbox though. Hydra, Ravager, AR big three. WE ALL KNOW… the problems with these weapons, no need to say it. Another would be the BR RRR. Other than all these issues, 7/10.

Deadzones are only an ointment to make it slightly better. Got all mine to zero, high sense and a fire’nforget acceleration because that felt like it straight up didn’t work at all no matter the setting, and the aiming is still “off”. Maybe it’d the lack if aim assist.
No, I don’t feel the humongous aim assist people talk about.
Maybe it’s an FPS ( frames per second ) thing, FoV or platform dependant. But extremely rarely do I get even a hint of assistance.
Controller, Xbox One.
Tried connecting mouse and keyboard, it worked and I could play. Though there was some input latency so that idea was discarded.
