Halo Infinite Is A Different Game Now...

- Опубликовано: 1 июн 2024
- Halo Infinite has had a rough few weeks, especially relating to Forge content and the challenges the game is facing in 2024. The map Corrosion was delayed, and forgers have revealed the obstacles to getting maps put into matchmaking are substantial. Additionally a lot of the player base for Halo Infinite is wondering if anything will come from the mixed reception to the new networking model and the cheating problem that continues to plague the game. In this video we will talk about that and a lot more. Thanks for watching. #halo #haloinfinite

Can’t lie, been playing Titanfall 2 almost exclusively for the past month. Very little desire to play Infinite right now.
I love hearing the Titanfall hype!
@@BBKDRAGOONthe game is still just so much fun, man. Funny how a game that isn’t even dev-supported (and hasn’t been for years) still feels as exhilarating as (or sometimes, more than) present-day AAA shooters.
Its like infinite is a cheap rip off of sevetal games. Oh wait...
@@nobodykayaks1041which ones?
Helldivers 2 for me. Vernen Wells needs reinforcement!
I 100% think that Forgers should be compensated for their time and effort creating these maps. Some of them look absolutely stunning and play amazing. It’s criminal how 343 doesn’t already compensate them for their time cause some of these maps look just as good if not better than the dev maps.
Mint blitz also brought up the idea of giving them the dev tools they need to create full fledged maps while 343 is doing whatever the hell their doing. And if there’s some sort’ve agreement or something that can be made between forgers and 343, I’d love to see them get compensated, motivating forgers to work even harder to make sure their maps are perfect.
Completely agree that Forgers should be paid to make maps in the actual Dev Tools (I forgot what the name was but I remember it was some Forerunner's name). I didn't grow up with the series but I was curious when I started El Dewrito wayy back in like 2017 then MCC PC and fell in love. I haven't played all campaigns but am familiar enough, so far my favorite mp's are Infinite, CE, then Reach and H4 BTB.
I'm hopeful for the next entry since it's a new team with new leadership and a lot of the bad apples are out. I do hope they rebrand and bring in other studios like Certain Affinity etc.
They don't make maps to get I don't understand why people care.
I think its time for some "xbox one only" playlists so those of us with modern hardware can enjoy the high detail forge maps in MM
Yeah the multiplatform aspect really adds to the greed, sacrifice game quality to what sell a free game? Flagship game isnt even exclusive to the new gen. They had luttle faith from the start so i dont believe any of their lame excuses
this game shouldn't even be running on that hardware at all. it's just holding the game back
Agreed. If they could stop having to put energy into always making sure the broke ahh xbox one players can also play, the game would be soooooo much better off.
The next Halo game hope to god will completely abandon Xbox One entirely and is only on the Series Xbox Consoles/PC.
@@Finger112 agreed pc is so much easir to access in general and really is the future. i mean every console now days is a highly restricted pc anyways.
Infinite really feels like Microsoft noticed how 343 had mostly fixed the game so they cut back support to save costs as much as possible while contracting third party dev teams to make more overpriced macrotransactions.
We have to learn the manage our expectations for the gaming industry, it is just a cash cow now and we are the idiots who continue to buy and buy thinking something will change. The days of old have gone and this is our reality. Wishful thinking is just a distance memory of what was..
Well said games nowadays are about money first and fun second so wait for the game to release and find out if the game has enough of that fun factor for you.
What we can do is go join the other 300 players on the very free quake champions
Edgy...
@@Solotocius He's 100% right
@@deepism complete pessimism, like complete optimism, is never fully accurate.
343i shot themselves in the foot when they said the game will be released on Xbox One alongside the Series Consoles. This is only going to hold a game back, and I called it. It's whatever though, I still have zero desire to play this Game. I'm still stuck on D2 and damn I've been having a blast with BF2042.
As someone who moved away from Destiny back to Halo, it has been a breath of fresh air being able to play a PvP game with no fomo or weapon grind etc.
I know it feels a little bare bones in comparison but to me, a game like Halo is something you get into if you want to have a life outside of gaming.
Nothing pulls me and makes me feel like I need to play for endless hours but I can still enjoy the few hours a week I put into it and feel satisfied
Welcome back to the light side, destiny has just gotten worse and worse and worse over the years and i fear it will never be as it was.
@@ardentparagon159 It feels good. I genuinely feel like I am/was going through heavy withdrawal when I deleted my characters. The game suckered me for 5k hours and I didn't even realize it was eating my life up.
I felt like it used to be fun but now it just feels like a heavy and glorified addiction.
@@brandona9326 I used to play the game a lot right before it went on steam. That was the peak of destiny The free to play update was cool but it kept going down hill and with the removal of a bunch of content i actually cared about the whole exotic power cap fiasco seasonal content just feeling shit and samey the icing on the cake was charging extra money for the dungeons and i just completely gave up on the game and became apathetic.
Destiny used to be a good deal with so much content now its just a penny pinching exercise with heroin levels of engagement.
@@ardentparagon159 Spot on. Took me a long time to realize it.

It’s unfortunate that infinite is in the state it’s currently in, but I’m still enjoying playing the game and I look forward to the next Halo game. They do need to fix the cheating situation though.
So happy to hear you've upgraded your rig man, it was painful hearing about your struggles in older videos.
Thank you very much! It's like a whole new world right now
I just noticed that my map Necromancer is the map in the thumbnail of this video.
Microsoft and 343 completely bungled Halo Infinite. After a bad launch and lackluster updates, they finally clawed their way back into relevance with Season 5. After that, the outlook for Halo was great! Content creators were all talking about a possible comeback and then 343 just PULLED THE PLUG. The only announced content update for Infinite is now over and we've only heard whispers of future games being worked on, so players really are in the DARK at this point. Honestly, I think 343 needs to drop something big and soon. If they don't have a massive announcement in June with details, a trailer, maybe some gameplay... it's over.
No, Microsoft had nothing to do with it. Halo's downfall was 343's doing, and they did it alone.
Microsoft didn't ask for Halo to be objectively mismanaged. Nor did they feel the need to get involved with a mess that they didn't start. 343 mismanaged the franchise, and it's 343's responsibility to clean their mess.
@@Game4Lord you don't think Microsoft has any input on microtransactions or making the game free to play? You don't think they're involved with setting the pricing in the shop? I think they are the ones calling the shots. 343 is responsible for the lackluster content and awful storytelling for sure, but the business decisions I think are being made by Microsoft.
@@Game4Lord That is blatantly incorrect. Who do you think runs the shop and sets price points? Also an ex-343 dev confirmed that they've pitched dozens of ideas to Microsoft, including an ODST game in the style of Helldivers 2, and Microsoft turned them all down.
You really expect the company that had effectively been barring Rare from making any games for the last 20 years up until Sea of Thieves isn't a problem? You really think they're completely uninvolved in Halo's downfall?
A new UE5, M for Mature, true next gen Halo games is what we need. I stopped playing Infinite recently due to the lack of content. All the new content seems to be only cosmetic, which is disappointing. Still hoping for a classic Halo game though, even though my hopes are not high at all.
OG Xbox should have NEVER been a targeted Plattform for Halo Infinite...
One S at the Least or even better only One X and Series Consoles
The way that steak ended 😢
right haha, I love those moments though, Halo is still fun and still really silly
As someone that has put 500+ hours into Infinite, and during Season 3-5 enjoyed and defended it... Everything since CU29 has pushed me away from playing. The focus on MTX/cosmetics. The complete lack of sandbox updates. The clear pivot that 343 is making towards whatever is "next" for Halo... The complete lack of transparency that 343 has in anything has left an awful taste in my mouth, and playing other games has only pushed me further from Infinite. Them scrapping Season 6 was such an awful decision and totally undid any building interest that Infinite had.
I feel like it taking ~6 months to vet a Forge map to get it into rotation is CRAZY. I get things need to work well before being released, but if 343 is focusing on Forge-only updates... They really ought to quicken the pace. Beyond that, a Forge competition sounds great, and 343 really should have contracted the community Forgers already.
I'm just taking a break from Halo for a while, I think. I'll be focusing on other games and series, because the current status of Halo just makes me feel so disappointed...
Really hit home: "games are supposed to be the place you go and recharge, have fun."
I am definitely experiencing burnout and frustration with halo infinite, especially playing ranked, where the system is constantly playing against me and pushing me down instead of enabling me to thrive and improve.
Not playing Halo Infinite anymore since the update back in March 2024, the game isn’t fun to me anymore nor see how it the game’s future roadmap
Do you have everything set to max? Saw your frame counter juggling around 170-180. I personally can’t go beyond 160 ish with a 4080 gpu on max.
If you have the hardware capable of doing so, why not? What point is there to having top notch hardware if you're not going to push it?
I have a 2070S, and constantly try to push what it's capable of.
Quit playing Infinite after Season 5. The cash grabs drove me away. I want to be able to earn some cool skins with my time spent playing, not sink more money into a game being held together by forge.
On a different note, the Lawbreakers subreddit seems to have some community testing going on :)
I think we just need to take a step back and take a retrospective.
"Tartarus... The Prophets have betrayed us."
Honestly the only reason I am still playing Infinite is because I've almost hit Hero rank (Just over half way there through Onyx General Grade 2) via grinding Firefight KOTH and Gruntpocalypse for months now, I'll still be playing it for whatever the community makes in Forge and when the Exchange from MCC goes live later this year to acquire event cosmetics from the first two seasons I missed as I hated the pre-Winter Update challenge system along with weekly rewards that will be obtainable again.
i would play infinite more if they actually add more content like new weapons and modes. i feel like this game is a bigger mess than halo 5 was. but thats just me
we dont have assualt and vip yet and they were in the files
It's definitely not just you.
I think Firefight is fun.
I played it for a bit and it’s definitely improved - but I eventually stopped playing again.
I appreciate them sticking w/ it, again, but they sorta missed the window where I wasn’t playing other things.
It....feels almost exactly the same, just with better netcode
It still just feels like a sterile h3
It feels like with Season 4 and 5 they found there footing and built some good will, and then immediately gave up. I hope the next game is good, but its hard to have any hope after the last decade of Halo. Arbiter

I really like Halo rn honestly. I don't focus on that stuff about them moving onto something else because it hasn't been long enough to have much of an effect. Just looking at where Halo Infinite was and all the drama over the last few years and then I look at it now. I'm happy, the forge maps are good etc and I enjoy the event, this is like the peak of the hill for how good the game is probably as we begin winding down and will lose the playerbase. Then again being on xbox I haven't seen any of these cheaters, it's always a pc thing. I come back every few weeks to play a bit with my friends, it's not one of those games I'm obsessed with it's just fun and it's Halo
And I'm now thinking of the game as a whole, where it fits into the series and I'm happy to say that I've been convinced (though it took me a while), to say that 343 made a good mainline Halo game. And my memories of this one will be good, just pity they dropped it once they got to where it should've been instead of having one of those big comebacks you see with a lot of games recently after being improved. I guess there's no controlling what the mainstream gamers will flock to. Halo is just lowkey right now, we're doing alright -aside from the apparent cheater problem i guess
I think that keeping last gen would limit a lot of what the game can do, but instead of just deleting that player base they could instead have the game be cloud based for last gen, practically all of Microsoft first party games already are with xcloud, that way the game isn't limited by last gen but also doesn't leave them out.
Infinite has always been fun for me and is as fun as ever now.
Had a similar experience going from a 3050 laptop to a 7800xt and a r5 7600x. Infinite's frames went from like 70-80 to 200+
The difference is crazy haha, can never go back
343i still haven't fixed the EAC preventing the game from starting in a number of scenarios. I'm still waiting on them to fix it not launching when installed on an SMB share.
That was my idea since forge was finally added to Infinite. That 343 should reward the best private forgers by at least offering them credits and special items for those who made it into the matchmaking rotations.
minus the insane amount of cheaters
Halo infinite aged like milk
I've had a series x and series s but have been staying with family recently after moving. As such I've been playing Infinite on an old Xbox One X and it's definitely not ideal. I'm still surprised how well it can maintain 57ish fps, but there is A LOT of desync and I pretty much avoid melee fights as I know I'm always going to lose them.
Things got worse somewhere during S4/S5. It made me dread playing PvP games. Matchmaking got so strict I had to constantly play against dudes like Paimon, who live and breathe Halo. And no, that shit was not fun.
I miss the feeling of matchmaking that games like BF1 could give you.
But if it wasn't for Infinite, I wouldn't have played games like Hi-Fi Rush. Also Arbiter.
I still play daily, but only Husky Raid to unwind since that game type is meant to be chaos. I actually have gone back to H5 a few times because of ALL the awesome stuff Warzone has and I miss that. ESPECIALLY in Husky Raid. All of the cool weapons in the campaign were available to use in the game was always awesome. Especially The Arbiters sword.
Totally with you on this, man. I love this game (besides the microtransactions), but it's rampant with cheaters right now. I've ran into so, so many. It's wild.
Overall, feels like on the down, but I'm still playin. ;)
Does it have any new single player content?
The forgers (and gamers as a whole) need to organize and unionize.
Edit: We need the Arbiter.
The game desperately needs a W or two right now. If this April 30th update comes out and it is lackluster the game might really take a dive in terms of engagement.
very accurate analysis, i feel just the same. When it started to look good, it is for sure in life support just a couple of hours of development.
About forge: yes, no real question, they should provide economic reward no matter the development circle. If you incentivice it grows, if not, goodbye.
About the show: yes, no real question, a series lore accurate does well in the audience is intended to, surprising.
About hope for new halo: no, no real question, 343 has demonstrated their lack of capacity to do good full Halo game. Unfortunately i dont have any hope, wish to be proven wrong tho and that they learn from their mistakes and deliver a good story, full and tested multiplayer, content ready for some time, not agresive monetization,...
Arbiter!!
You mentioned at the end you've never seen ray traced stuff. Did you not know Infinite also has ray tracing? You just need to turn it on in the settings. I ALAWAYS have it on, those little shadows coming around the corner aren't just ghosts! 😄
SperaSoft did alot of animation work for Infinite too.
Yo dude, you should check out the new eldewrito build. Its very interesting indeed.
Arbiter....
343's treatment of the Halo franchise over the past decade caused me to go out, touch grass and get a real life.
I hope I don't have to witness a bunch of people forgive and forget as soon as they drop a tease for "Halo 7"
Lowering your resolution scale will stress your CPU more
I been on Titanfall 2 last 2 months at this point, I'm never hopping back on infinite
Those X3D chips are great! I'm sure you will have a great experience with it.
I played on the OG Xbox One from 2013 up until this February when k finally got a Series X
And my lord the difference is astronomical
I can’t ever go back now, the game was clearly designed to be played on at least 60 fps
The aiming and shooting feels miles better
The sniper in particular actually functions now!
It was essentially unusable on the Xbox one for me, to the point where I thought they had just made the sniper ABSURDLY difficult to use on purpose 😂
it should be common sense to stop supporting the original xbox one. I love the idea in principle, but it just doesn't work in practice long-term.
Absolutely agree. If they could stop having to put energy into always making sure the broke ahh xbox one players can also play, the game would be soooooo much better off.
7:40 I've been playing halo since CE and sometimes I play so good that I get messages claiming I'm cheating lol.
Long message incoming!!!
So firstly, for me personally the recent network update has been great. Im in the UK and the game is just feleing better. Secondly with regards to the forge maps etc, i wholeheartedly agree that they should he compensated for the time and effort they put in. Forge is literally holding the game together. The forge maps are so kuch better than the other new ones in mu opinion. Third, now this may seem harsh but i dont think anyone should be worried about the players on the OG Xbox. Halo needs to push on and if a map runs bad then so be it. I cant imagine that the playerbase on that console is huge, but the mojority need more. Lastly i thought the Halo TV series was great. Im a huge long time Halo fan but i can take myself away from the game and appreciate the show for what it is. Awesome vid as always
Forgers without question have hard carried Infinite. They deserve more than a coating for their efforts.
Hard to invest time in Infinite when it does nothing to earn it. It’s become a chore.
I’m one level from Hero rank and I just can’t play. Small intervals every week are all I can do now.
Since I got game pass, might as well give the Fallout games a try. With all the positive reception I’ll definitely give the show a chance too.
Is it worth playing yet?
The game turned into a microtransaction marketplace... Well it has been all along...
It's a shame they prioritized microtransactions over more content.
Arbiter or are bitter? I get confused these days as a Halo fan lol
No map veto, no pump shotgun or pre post lobby chat. It sure is a different game 😢
I really want that yokai helmet man 😂, but we need a new update, we need new maps, and forge was in halo 4 but the island is awful, a lot of people miss the carbine. And the covenant in general. And now they’re doing the banished. I really hope it’s gonna be good, do you miss all the clans? 😅😂
My game mode it’s at 78% of the forge simulation and still crashing
Really miss my slow projectile battle rifle
Halo Infinite has so much potential it literally has my favorite gameplay mechanics
Absolutely agree. Really don’t understand how it gets so much hate. Its easily the best halo 343 has made and in MY opinion, it has the best and smoothest gameplay of any halo. And im an OG halo player, 30 years old, and been playing since CE dropped on the pc back in 01.
@@Carlosrodriguezjose People dont hate the game, they hate the scummy practices that are behind it. also criticism is not hate as long as its constructive.
@@AXIS_ARISE Nah, theres PLENTY of people just straight hating on the game itself bud. And who are you to speak for everyone. “pEoPLe dOnt hAtE tHe gAmE iTsELf” …..really? You sure about that bud? How would you know what everyone thinks? I have seen countless people just hating on the game itself.
Not being happy with the slow start of content in the BEGINNING of the games release is fine, as is criticism towards the ridiculous store prices.
But no, plenty of people just have shit taste and hate on the game itself.
I tried going back to the older halos after playing infinite and bruh……they are straight up ASS compared to infinite. The gameplay, the graphics, the sound, the responsiveness, the overall aesthetic….. all top tier.
Infinite is halo perfected.
@@CarlosrodriguezjoseThere aren't. They're criticizing it, and are doing so fairly.
Knock it off with the obfuscation for matters in which they're not. It's unseemly.
@@Carlosrodriguezjose I think you need to calm down dude. Be civil
Halo is the same players since day one making the game super sweaty in casual multiplayer
Can't say I have much interest in Infinite nowadays; whenever I do have the urge to play some Halo, the modding community for MCC keeps me more than well fed. Those custom campaigns and overhauls are really getting good.
If I ever do go back to Infinite, it'll probably be just to play through the campaign again, which I quite enjoyed, and maybe to fuck around in Forge maps for a bit. Multiplayer however might very well be dead for me, as in all potential future online Halo titles I don't think I'll go near. Just give me the next campaign, Microsoft, and don't fucking dare soft-reboot it you stupid bastards.
i swear same shit i can play 4vs4 in the lowest graphics and big battle team its unstable but the thing i changed is my gpu from rx 570 to rx 6600xt
If we boil it down… the reason for Infinite’s failure stems from the singular decision to build it in Slipspace instead of Unreal 5.
Infinite was on the up and up for a while, then they started to sunset the game
Sadly, to sum it all up fuck Halo
And I’ve been playing since Halo 3
DRAGOOOOOON
In my opinion, it feels exactly the same as when it launched, just with a few more guns/vehicles/maps. Still feels like a game that is having the life strangled out of it by excessively strict SBMM, the lack of stuff to do, and the joke of a shop that everyone complains about. Infinite is just not fun. Plain and simple. That's why no matter what 343 does, people would still rather play the original trilogy on MCC (double the current players on Steam than Infinite btw). 343 just doesn't understand how to make a good Halo game, and they need to stop trying. Pass the IP on to a studio that will actually do it justice.
halo not going in the direction we thought, where have I seen this before 🤔
Yoo, what's up Naded!? Curious where you are going with that though. Lol Idk what you're referring to.
Yeah, I wish we could score some wins as a franchise. Also, absolutely loving your daily uploads man! Your gameplay is legendary and so fun to watch.
This is what happens when you hire people who hate Halo, especially when you put them into leadership positions. This is what happens to an IP when the new focus is money and competitive when the IP never had that focus to begin with. You're looking at the shitty dance that essentially boils down to receiving less support because it's just "not worth the effort" because it's not meeting new "standards".
Ranked is awful now... since the updates hit registration is so bad
I will be back probably but I'm obsessed with fallout right now lol
Hoping the banished event is good
If they could stop having to put energy into always making sure the broke ahh xbox one players can also play, the game would be soooooo much better off.
Them having to always make sure that the game can also run for the brokies with a decade+ old console is only holding the game back for the rest of us.
I'm so tired of this game now and it's consistency.... Just sick if it now
The game has been the same since launch, the Xbox one version runs poorly atleast for me and it’s weird considering halo 5 runs and looks better for some reason
sad to say but they need to drop the ol gen and olny keeep it between current gen and pc
I uninstalled infinite for the first time since launch.. bittersweet but im done. Its been fun.
Infinite is just finished is all barley though still missing somethings
Short answer: NO
lol what was the question?
They need to drop old gen
Cold turkeid this game and it felt great, better games to play
I have to say that your gameplay is really really good, like those are shots that I see myself making but missing 99% of them.
I 100% agree about being left in the dark, there's nothing I dislike more than having to listen to silence about Halo. Reminds me of all the wasted time during MCC's debacle and Infinite's first four months of launch where there was no fixes or patches that addressed player feedback.
If they do have an entirely new game launch, they have to absolutely nail it or that will finally finally be the nail in the Halo coffin. No more messing around with any of the previous management, they have to come out the gate with complete fan service and pull all the resources they can with Unreal Halo. They're going to have to please every single fan that got burned by the previous 4-5 games made by 343: CEA, Halo 4, Halo 5, MCC and now Infinite. This shouldn't be a 343 lead game, it should be Microsoft led with every company they've had work on the franchise in the past present and future, otherwise I don't see this realistically working only inside 343.

i love halo but i dont play anymore i have been playing for honor, tekken and helldivers halo just didnt add anything new and lost its people
Support should be 100% dropped for the Xbox one honestly. Xbox One X support should be fine to continue though I think.
Arbiter!
It's time to move on.
343 will never pay forgers, they barely want to pay their employees.
tf are you basing that off of
@@deepism The fact that you dont even know says it all
@@AXIS_ARISE Says what? You just made that up dude, bet. Prove me wrong
@@deepism Last year Microsoft fired almost 100 343 employees because they wanted to cut costs. Infinite didnt make them the money they wanted so they fired people so they wouldnt have to pay them and therefore make up the difference they lost.
Arbitor. Ya been playing other games too. Halo is on a lifeline of the fans and even then MS is too stupid to pay people.
Arbiter : ~ )
It's still not M rated and the characters still have the outlines.
The sniper still has scope glare and the game doesn't have medkits like CE and Reach... I do not like the game.
I would rather play Halo 5's arena.
It's poo poo compared to the games out right now with developers who put in the actual work
