Halo Infinite retroespective and review 3 years later in 2024. 343 Industries and Halo Infinites development has come quite a long way since its launch in 2021. Halo Infinite Multiplayer and campaign has changed significantly 3 years later. This will be a full review and retrospective analysis about the state of Halo Infinite in 2024

Absolutely crazy that in 2024 publishers are NOW realizing that maybe the first release of a game is the most important time of a game's lifespan. Mind blowing stuff here
Guess they never heard first impressions are everything
Man keep being ignorant. They know what we want. They purposely do these things to mess with us. Its not hard to see.
I love halo to death but comparing now to its launch, its genuinely night and day difference. Im sad it didnt release like it is now because people are missing out on one of the best Free-to-play party games. The community behind infinite is carrying it 90%. God bless the forge community.
I have never played halo online. Like. Never. Would it be worth it to jump into in 2024 or is it like a “no. Ships sailed. Wait for the next one” kinda thing. If and when there is a next one
@@UniverseGlider2 I think now's the best time to start multiplayer! I played my first online Halo match back in July literally the night before squad battle launched, and I've loved it ever since. if you start playing now, you'll get to start with all the heaps of content launch players wish they had years ago
@@UniverseGlider2 tbh i still go back and play MCC and infinite every few weeks, its really fun with friends especially.
@@UniverseGlider2 there is going to be a next one, they recently announced they are shifting their team to work on the new halo game, still constant support for infinte though
Start playing id say, plenty of players on Xbox dont be discouraged by steam charts, your skill gained form infinte will transfer to the new halo just because of the generic halo MP format
Missing out on what? No career stats? A progression system that came out a year and a half late? Horrible feeling aim? It’s literally the bottom of the barrel for shootwr games
In the time it took for 343i to add basic features to infinite, a new game could've been created. Remember when halo game were made in 3 years and shipped as complete games
translation: remember when Bungie made halo and 343 didn't have their grubby little hands on it
So we still have at least 1 major game changing update confirmed for this year; the implementation of the Match Composer (like MCC). After that, ongoing feature support is still up in the air, as 343i has confirmed that they are now working on the next game.
Side note: the new 343i studio head is Pierre Heintz, the guy who oversaw the resurection of MCC; so far his leadership has been a night and day comparison with they've been handling this game, and their communication with the community.
It is an incredible game, the managment shift saved this game - massive youtubers like Jackfrags playing the game and it garnering hundreds of thousands of views within a few hours
Such an amazing FPS, if it released like this it would be in another league

@@DazaiSeyen I just love the game, just because you disagree doesn’t mean much
That's Jackfrag's community supporting his content. Jack is a million subscriber channel. The actual amount of dedicated people who even watch Infinite content regularly on RUclips is approximately 300k. And that 300k viewers translates to maybe 30k players on Infinite across all platforms. Meaning that the player-base is pathetically small regardless of the viewership.
You're smoking serious hopium if you think Infinite is incredible. At best it's now a functional game and even then it occasionally breaks. Have you seen the new update? Two pieces of bare-minimum content and hundreds of dollars worth of "premium cosmetics", like another orange coating. This game has been a continuous trainwreck of immense proportion and Microsoft has cut literally all major support for Infinite.
It's over, buddy. Maintaining excessive positivity at this point is absolutely pointless. Infinite is in the shitter and it's been dead in the water since it lost 97% of its launch population.
@@namelessstranger1270 yeah probably the most braindead take ive seen, there is many other massive youtubers who have talked about its comeback, its steam charts are not representative, you dont know what you are talking about - games dont need 100k players to be good, its community is estimated around 30-50k all platforms which is really good for infinite, a very strong small player base who enjoys the game
Mintz Blitz gets tonnes of views, the rad brads video on halo infinite about its comeback, moistcritical singing its praises a few weeks ago and so many more - not copium when you see how many more likes my comment got than yours because people actually agree with me
I play Apex and helldivers 2 a lot right now and still always finding myself coming back to infinite, that says everything you need to know
Its incredible for me and thousands of others, COPE
@@okay7332 30k-50k concurrent players is not sustainable for Microsoft financially, hence why all major support is stopped. Remember when this was supposed to be a "Ten Year Halo"? How is the 97% loss on Steam charts not "representative" of Infinite's population? Old games out of their prime like Rainbow Six Siege or Destiny 2 constantly have *triple* the amount of players Infinite has at peak. It seems YOU'RE the one huffing the copium since you're complimenting a soulless corporate product (Halo Infinite). Mint Blitz has an artificial incentive to remain excessively positive about Infinite as his channel hardcore subsists on Halo's relevancy; a channel that has generated thousands of dollars in income. Notice how Mint's viewership hasn't grown in years from around 50k?
Infinite is "incredible"? No thoughts on the updates being extremely light on content but packed with hundreds of dollars worth of "premium cosmetics" at eye-opening prices?
Its a shame, leaks show the falcon and a new banished shotgun look to be 90% finished but are never going to be put in the game.
next update after the yappening will have it dw
I don't think the Falcon and the Double Barreled shotgun are going to be in CU30, and people need to get their expectations low, since those things might not be added at all in the next update.
even if the next update doesn't have these things that we all want, there's no reason to overhype a content update and expecting it to have DLC sized content.
edit: i thought CU30 was the name for the next update following the Yappening II lmao
they will probably dripfeed both of them to us throughout 2024.
It's possible, but we actually don't know if they're actually dropping them
@@SHDWPN it won't. Stop kidding
Die hard halo fan but after beating legendary I didn't touch MP till Infection and Firefight came out. Definitely missed out on season 1/4
You didnt miss out on anything, just forge maps.
The game is still the same. Forge is the only thing carrying it anywhere.
Unsure on who’s running 343?
They literally made it very public that Pierre is in charge now….
One problem is infinite has voice chat turned off by default. :/
I've come back to Infinite after a 2 or so year hiatus.. and the game is dead quiet.. when I talk I wonder if my mic settings are even working, as no one ever says anything back lol. But when you do get a team that does communicate, I find it super distracting haha.
It's been a messy journey with this game but currently I can safely say it's the best pvp live service game on the market. Granted I'm a huge Halo fan, but I'll criticize Halo like crazy.
Yeah it's the best, the tiny player count would agree, the 20-40 million people playing fortnite would disagree though because it's superior in every single way
@@Egodeathforlifebest =/= most popular, dillweed
What ive found out about customsgames, is that there are still a good lot of ppl who will play. They just dont understand or simply host their own. So they wait on the side until someone else does.
the live service elements are whats keeping me from actually grinding it, halo was all about grinding mp for armors and ranks but both feels super hollow still. ill boot it up every now and then but actually investing full on is not likely to happen. shame since the actuall gameplay is solid
Wake me up when cross core finally implemented
Good video, a few things on the timeline of infinite's major feature updates to clear things up:
Infinite Launch - Nov/Dec 2021 (S1)
Co-op Campaign and Forge - Oct 2022 (Winter Update)
Custom Browser - Dec 2022 (Winter Update)
Community Maps in Multiplayer + Bandit Rifle - Mar 2023 (S3)
Infection - June 2023 (S4)
AI in Forge - Oct 2023 (S5)
Firefight - Dec 2023 (S5)
We've also got cross-core shoulders, visors, helmets, and coatings and a real progression system alongside battlepasses that never expire, I'd personally say this would be the best mtx in a free game if it wasn't for the shop going a bit wild recently (prices are like $3-4 overpriced on average rn). Also firefight has Legendary and now Custom (for forgers but also just classic firefight as no hills to cap), legendary firefight gets rotated in every so often but is always available in customs.
I will still contest to this day that Halo Infinite is the most arcade like Halo game yet. It feels like a game that could be the most fun to play but everything around it is just soulless and lacks a lot of everything the game needs to make a player happy. With its SUPER rocky start not having a lot of the features it should've had I just feel this is a game that could've been incredible on release. It needed Forge, split screen, campaign co-op, a good and sensible ranked mode and progression system, all the modes of classic Halo and hot take, but it also needed Warzone from Halo 5. Warzone is one of the best things Halo has ever done for multiplayer. The game was just not ready on release and feature a big problem of modern gaming which was a focus on microtransactions, skins and battle pass elements that has infested so many games. Infinite could be a god tier Halo game with the best parts of every Halo game but it just feels too late now even if lately it has been doing good things.
I’m willing to die on that halo 5 hill with ya
@@otisgreen2041 I know man I still play Warzone on halo 5 it’s just relaxing that I can play while like listening to music or a video
@@OrionInSpace didn’t know there was still an active player base. I now have homework for this weekend.
@@otisgreen2041 well, I should specify when I say there’s an “active” player base. The are people still playing the game at least on console because I’m on Xbox but it is very small. The only two 4v4 modes that I can find a match right now are slayer and super fiesta party. As far as Warzone every mode is still being played thankfully. So I might see you?
i came from tdawgsmitty and im a huge halo and cod fan. Already subbed and you are GOATED.
There’s are still major updates coming this year including a MCC style Match Composer and an MCC style Exchange where players can earn missed cosmetics from weeklies, promos, and past events.
And those will be the last "major" updates before Microsoft unplugs the life support of Infinite.
6 years to develop and 3 more years to kinda fix isn't something to be supported at this point. Serves 343 right if they lost all the Halo community on their next Halo game.
Thank you! It's so frustrating seeing people defend games being fixed later like this is something to praise.
💯 facts
Legendary outro brother 🤣. Peaked my interest, I'm gonna give it a try soon. Cheers.
Please don't believe the crazy hype. The game is in a less pathetic state now but 343i is out the door nowadays. All major support is being stopped and Infinite's servers will probably be unplugged before long.
Not afraid to say it. Halo I infinite had a rocky launch yes, but now it's one of or the best multiplayer fps game in modern times. Anyone who hasn't tried it or has dropped it early on, should definitely try it once more.
Facts
It’s just too little too late for me. The game is on life support, and when the next project drops, infinite will be forgotten
The issue is whenever i do its still the same game as launch, PLAYER Made forge maps and cyclic playlists dont actually change the bones and skeleton of the game.
You people who are trying to claim the games way better now did not actually play the game at launch im sure of it. Nothing substantial has changed.
Not even the new net code update means anything, the netcode isnt fixed they just shifted the issue.
@@youtubedeletedmynamewhybother that’s entirely bs. Everything has changed.
@@Creed5.56 it’ll be forgotten after the next game yeah, but the game is by no means on life support. The steam charts are going down but the Xbox charts are stable from what we can tell. And what we can tell is that the player count hasn’t changed much or substantially from almost 70-80k players, potentially higher on Xbox (daily average)
Since the MK.IV core came out, I've not only been enjoying Infinite more, but I'm actually happier with it. In fact, I've made more new friends through custom games now than I have since probably Halo Reach days.
And the forge community is amazing. Props to 343i at least for how awesome forge is in this game now but the forge community is carrying the game now.
And as sad as it is that we probably aren't getting campaign DLC, I've been pouring hours into forge created campaign missions and loving it. Just throw on a Halo music playlist and hop into customs for some original co-op experiences.
im gonna be real, once i heard that "someone contained here on the ring, more dangerous than the flood" i was done. not bringing the flood back in the campaign was 343s biggest mistake with infinite andi dont think ill be coming back until the flood are ingame as enemies again.
Having the ability to add campaign ai in multiplayer makes for some interesting custom games like 32v32 NPC Wars
I’ll say it, king of the hill firefight is my favorite firefight. Classic firefight can get stale because the only goal is survive. It’s nice to have an objective, I hope they come up with a way to do new objectives like CTF or Strongholds
Yup + it helps mitigate camping, I like obj modes
I was really impressed with how firefight turned out and glad they implemented reviving. H5 firefight was dissapointing for me
I really hope they continue with infinites build and play style and make it better. The worst part about 343 halo titles is that they each feel and play completely different. An infinite like build in a solid engine, all key features day 1, and regular updates to maps, weapons, and customization feels like it would be a win. But with 343 as the studio they may never get a solid player base on a new halo again. How can anyone trust them.
Our live service halo ended up being just a beta release and the game took almost three years to be at the same point halo’s were released at 14 years ago
I'm still playing Infinite everyday grinding to reach Hero rank by April 30th when the next update for the game is suppose to go live, currently an Onyx Lt. Colonel Grade 2 with 11 more ranks to clear via Firefight.
Bonnie Ross’ position was split into 3 after she left and the new heads of the studio are the people that saved Master Chief Collection and since the layoffs/shakeup at 343, Infinite has gotten so much content and features added and is now a completely different (good) game, so I’m hoping this means the next Halo title launches in a similar state to where Infinite is right now and only continues to get better
Its too little too late in terms of reviving Halo as a main stay franchise for millions of people. That is a tall order for any game in a franchise this old but almost impossible for a game released after such a mismanaged development cycle. The improvements they have made are all necessary to help carry what is left of the community forward to whatever they release next. They know they need a core audience to stand any chance of launching another succesful game.
I played on release for a few weeks, and didn’t touch it until a month ago. It’s SO good now.
Recently downloaded Infinites multiplayer for my Xbox One and for bring my first eber Halo, I am LOVING it!
3 years in and I still cant find ranked games in Australia without a VPN :/
what's your setup? Graphics looking really good!
Halo Infinite is the best FPS out there right now. I’ll die on this hill
I've been one of the people playing since launch, I have a little over 2,000 hours and I can say I am pretty happy with Infinite as it is right now. I think what they really need is a UI overhaul. Change up the menus, add a pregame lobby similar to older titles where you can see everyone's name on the screen without navigating through 3 different menus. No one talks in voice chat and I think a lot of that has to do with the way the UI and menus are structured. The ability to vote for maps or 'Veto' would be amazing, but sadly I don't see any of this happening. However, I think Ske7ch did recently mention they are adding a 'Match Composer' in an upcoming update, allowing you to select multiple game modes to queue up for but that just kind of feels like the bare minimum.
(Edit: Also wanted to add in how much I miss achievement based armor unlocks, and rank based armor unlocks. They do have one for max rank, but I miss that type of grind compared to the live service model they have now.)
been waiting good while to give it a proper bash and i think its time
It's all too little too late. It should have been this way on day one, not months or years later. I'm so tired of companies releasing games that clearly aren't ready yet. This will most likely be my final 343 Halo game I purchase or put time into. I'm done with 343 as of right now.
Me and my best friend were waiting until H:I had coop campaign because we played all the H:MCC games on legendary together. So its good that its finally been added!
Love the outro 😂
I just started playing again for the first time since halo 3 and it’s amazing! I didn’t see it when it was bad but now it’s good and underrated. We need more halo players !
A new mode i want to see is “Super Slayer” where you have all of the campaign upgrades from spawn. Where you can swap between the different equipment and grenades
I remember beta testing this game and then finishing the campaign in the first 3 days and then spending 25$ for cat ears then I was like why tf am I paying this for a game I’m no longer playing …
Would love a review of your thoughts on both of The Surge games
I tried Halo Infinite at release. Enjoyed the campaign for what it was but wish the open world had more variety.
It hasn't been out for 3 years it's still over half a year away.
It's been out 2 years and 4 months
I love playing the current multiplayer
I so wish Infinite was more active, I'm new to Halo and I'm loving Infinite but I'm almost stuck to playing the 8v8 modes because it seems like the only thing anyone is playing - it's like when you go back to the old COD's and Team Deathmatch is the only populated gamemode
its pretty active on Xbox honestly
It’s more popular on Xbox. No matter the playlist I find games easily at this point.
Try Ranked Arena. And get your sh..i.t. pushed in 😂
I guess bro doesn't bother trying Fiesta and Husky Raid since those are always populated as well
Nah bro every playlist is playable for sure. I hop around all the time
343 is really good at proving that first impressions matter, but really bad at learning it.
Respectfully, what has Infinite improved when it comes to social interactions??? The only thing I can think of is the Custom Games Browser, but even that is debatable considering the CGB has been completely broken since launch and I don't know why nobody is talking about that.
It took one year for campaign co op to come out why you keep doing that?
Excessive positivity. Drafting up any reason to be positive about Infinite and Infinite's future. This channel decided to compare present Infinite to Infinite at launch, which obviously gives a severe bias in favor of Infinite thanks to the launch being woefully pathetic.
i think it’s time we get a halo battle royale
I’ve never played a Halo game where dead zones matter more than anything else. It’s live or die by them. I’m changing settings every single match, because the feel is not consistent game to game - Solo Diamond
Just finished campaign with 3 other friends. With 4 people it is brain dead easy even on legendary but was great to play together. We’re now playing online multiplayer.
Online co-op campaign on launch would have dramatically changed the uptake and retention of this game. Particularly because it released in the middle of the pandemic. Really really big miss
I also feel like 343 never tried to make a push to get Infinite in a point to bring players back. Season 3 and 4 brought SOME players back, but it wasn't a re-release. I was under the impression that once 343 reached "seasonality" with Halo Infinite, that they would start a relaunch campaign. And Tenrai 4 event to me seemed like "we've finally hit our stable rhythm!" but then season 5 hit and proved that, nope. They didn't hit it. And since abandoned the idea of seasonality, much less a relaunch.

Too many people forget that Infinite had 8+ years of development, hundreds of millions of dollars for a budget and was developed by a AAA game studio owned by the biggest tech company in the world. Infinite is barely passable as a beta. So graphically regressive that games over a decade ago had superior visuals. So creatively bankrupt that they NEED to rely on Forgers to make 90% of the maps. So inept that they consider it a labor to make something as simple as an Infection gametype (literally possible to make in Custom Games with five seconds of effort). While Infinite has made improvements, ultimately it continues to do the bare-minimum and Infinite will fall even further. Those 97% of launch players are *NOT* coming back anytime soon.
Realest comment.
True! I had a bad feeling about this game when they announced it was going to be free to play
You forgot about the strict SBMM/MMR in Social playlists, that should only be Active in ranked. In Any Social Mode, ping should be king
3 steps forward 43 steps back every damn time classic 343
Can’t find any games on MCC or Infinite what has 343 done to Halo.
lol fix your fucking internet I played MCC today no issues
@@bloodyman125 same with both mcc and infinite no issues lol
@@bloodyman125 and I’m gonna assume it was slayer lol
What servers do you play on?
@@chocolateicecream3150 North America
I cant wait for the next game. just judging by some of the rumors and the more recent updates, it seems like 343 is moving away from infinite and working on the next game. and judging by some rumors by trusted sources it seems like Halo 7 started development a few years ago now sooo hopefully we see the next game soon
I got to play the Halo Infinite Multiplayer Beta, and played Halo Infinite since launch. It’s crazy how much it’s changed but it definitely got stale at points especially during season 1 and Season 2, I stopped playing once season two came out but then Season 3 got me back on Halo Infinite.
I really love the game now in 2024 but I feel like it’s 2-2 and a half years to late and I hope that Halo 7 launches in a better state, it has to have all the content from Season 3/4 of infinite at launch for Halo 7 at Minimum.
I doubt Halo 7 will launch with everything we want sadly and more than likely keep the Armor coatings but I’d love to have all the Armor from Infinite in Halo 7.
GIVE US THE CARBINE..!!!
Mint blitz did a video diving into the Xbox population some website found out the numbers roughly im not sure how but the game was meant to be getting around 50k peak players across all platforms at any given time and around 15k lowest that was a few months ago
The possible is there's no new big experience. The custom browsers are great but they all feel like BTB. There's nothing to monetize like warzone in H5
It's pretty good now
Let me fix your time frames there.
Infection was added 1.5 years later, Forge was added 1 year later, custom game browser was added 1 year later.
I love this game but it still has issues like my joystick sensitivity all of a sudden being super fast yet nothing changed in the options. But that could just be my underpowered rig. The game is definitely in a way better spot, though Halo 3 refueled is amazing
It’s kinda poetry that the current halo still doesn’t have grifball the same year Rooster Teeth gets shut down.
i have good memories with this one dont care too much its fun
I know it isn't an exact comparison but the state of Halo reminds me of what Call of Duty was like for a few years before MW came out. An amazing franchise that was being killed from leadership within and not listening to fans. What saved cod was keeping old multiplayer style but bringing in a HUGE new fanbase with Warzone/Battle Royale. I'm not saying it is the for sure solution because there's still a lot of fixes that Halo needs currently however this would bring in a whole new fanbase of players (and halo really does have amazing capabilities for a large scale battle royale) plus bringing a lot of fans back to the normal multiplayer/custom games side too. I just think right now these fixes are too late so how do you bring in the old and new player base to it? Or for the next halo make sure to have the multiplayer system set to go plus some addition of some sort to bring in a new player base too.
Please add extraction and battle royale. Gameplay is still fun and this game would take over those genres
💪🏼
Halo infinite has drastically gotten better if you haven’t played in a while you should jump back in. Well worth it, just gotta find friends to play with
If the next halo game launches content complete with a good campaign it won't die on launch. Hopefully 343 learns their lesson
I think maybe they should have just waited until the game was fully done. If it released like this it would have been renowned as a great game. Actually i remember when the multiplayer first launched people were saying it was great, but if it launched with everything it has now it would be really great
Best MP Halo of all time. Spend over 1100 Hours so far on it, in no other Halo i spend so much time 😀😀
As a long-time Halo fan, Infinite is fun, but yeah. It’s missing a lot of core things that would truly make it stand out from the other ones. The gameplay is arguably the most fun out of any Halo game but a lot of stuff is just missing.
The only main 2 problems I have with the game now are microtransactions, I know they're not going to ever go away as either MS or 343 are greedy, but I'm a sucker for armor coatings, just lemme buy stuff individually, also SBMM needs to be fixed, I can't even play with my friends who aren't as experienced in Halo. Those are my main frustrations with this game other than that the game is pretty good and since day 1 the game has been much better.
I want mw3 remastered campaign release now
They need to run a multi million dollar marketing campaign describing their game and introducing it to younger players.
The campaign for solo play is amazing all the way from easy to legendary. I don't know why people don't like the open world!
Great game
Halo needs a new developer behind it. 343’s only motivation is micro transactions to service their shareholders and not the fans.
Is that......nuketown?
Yes
3 years already? 😟
"should have been there at launch" is the issue with this game
halo infinite was the first halo i ever played and i played it on launch(steam), there were predatory monetization. i remember there was a fucking pinapple skin for grenades and it cost was like 12euro or something like that. the performance was piss poor but the thing that killed halo for me was the infinite bugs and crashes that made it unplayable for me.
One thing about Infinite that idk if anyone else can relate to, is that I simply dont like the aesthetic of it, the banished red coloring they splatter all over the game is unappealing to me, the way the overshield looks, some of the UI and HUD elements, the player outlines and those really really bad menus... As much content and fixes they add to the game, that's something that can't be patched in or out. Only a new game with a hopefully better art direction
They need to add past weapons vehicles and a veto/voting system. These things, match composer and I know they won’t add this at all but if they added pregame postgame lobbies we would be cooking. Then we could say game is getting what it needs, only thing aside from those things I would say is new modes from past games like griffball, multiteam vip ect. Next halo game needs everything infinite has plus these things at launch and we would be at a great place starting but won’t be till few more years. Hope they can add enough to infinite to keep it up. Store prices are ridiculous and honestly I just don’t open it up anymore. Anytime I play I just get my buddies together and we play matches. Don’t even care for the absurd prices they have, I bought stuff in the past but not buying anything since content updates started. All the money being made most likely is going towards the next game (hopefully). Enjoy the gameplay of infinite and honestly excited to see the next halo on unreal engine. It’s gonna be the game changer we needed for all these years we been asking for a better halo game. The engine will make halo feel unreal.😏
Me and my friends loved playing Halo Infinite when it launched despite its lackluster / barebones launch product. If 343 was at least able to properly support the game with monthly updates and 3-monthly seasons than the game would not have died. I just don't understand how Microsoft and 343 could have let this happen to probably the most important Xbox title. I bet Xbox and Halo would have done much better if they didn't drop the ball so hard on the launch of probably the most important Halo title since Bungie left.

@@Ch0pper All good, appreciate the response. 👍
@@Ch0pperoooooo you getting in trouble.
@@Ch0ppersome people call this "stealing"
I spent hundreds of hours on Halo 5, I gave up on Halo Infinite after a few weeks and I refuse to play it again.
343 have consistently neglected the Halo campaign to focus on making a live service game they can sell shitty cosmetics for. The game had barely any content (weapons, maps, vehicles, etc). The servers were laggy and full of legitimate aim bots.
I can't explain it but theres something missing in infinite to me. I loved it when it first came out for a few months but It still to this day can't quite grab me.
Of course customization issues have been stated ad nauseum but I think its still an important aspect. The armor core system was a horrible idea from the start. I get you need micro transactions but you could have just made individual pieces be unlocked in the battlepass/shop and have full sets for sale. maybe make it where you can spend a few bucks to get additional armor slots meaning you can save your looks and swap between them faster between matches.
Add playable elites back and before anyone complains about balance or hitboxes. Esports Should not be the bottom line for anygame. not everyone is taking it that seriously, if it's really an issue ban it in tournament settings but leave it for literally everyone else like when a fighting game character is banned.
I know a big part of online gaming now is outside communities like RUclips videos, discord, Reddit etc but in game feels so anti social. the lobby system is still bad and their should be proximity chat or something.
it's crazy because this is all stuff the franchise has already had. My feelings towards infinite are quite literally "I'm not mad just disappointed". I don't hate the game but I'm constantly let down by it and 343.
Don't get me started on the campaign the lack of environments or regions made it feel like a slog the open world didn't add anything. The game isn't an RPG there's not really any benefit to it being open world and it detracted from not having as many interesting set pieces or locales it was just the same woods and fields over and over. Not even a snowy mountain range on one of the borders or a desert, beach, anything
Halo used to be on top of the world. I played halo over CoD between '06-'10 with Reach, but Black ops pulled me away.
Its funny, I actually recently came back to infinite, and ive been trying to get my boys to get on but they refuse they "Realized halo as a franchise is dead" which is really upsetting to hear. Especially with the release of helldivers 2 (Which is a fantastic game by all means) They just feel disrespected by 343 with the launch of Infinite and how long it took them to get the game to where it shouldve have been. Kind of similar to the Destiny series, Destiny 1 improved so much and all of it got thrown out in Destiny 2.
343's desire for strict balance and lack of social features have hurt the community & sandbox to much for Infinite to thrive anymore. The only hope is Halo 7 having a classic sandbox and more social focus. Makes no sense that the only true "Shotgun" in the game is the Mangler with its one shot punch combo.
The shotgun in Infinite can 1 shot combo. The mangler is also not a 1 shot combo anymore.
@@danjjjatest 1. Yeah I know, but the shotgun should be able to 1 shot KO in super close range, the bulldog simply cant do this. 2. Youre just wrong, they reverted the Mangler nerf.
Wanted to listen but theres something about watching halo multiplayer that turns me away from the videos. A lot of other Halo centric channels show themselves playing and im just not vibing with it anymore.
The more you think about, the more you realize that Halo 5 had much better post launch support than Halo Infinite; plus Halo 4 at launch had a lot of the features and content that Halo Infinite got years later.
Agreed. 343i was somehow more functional in the past and with different creative leadership, maybe H4 & H5 could've been excellent Halo games
Something about this game aside from it being a broken pos that bothers me is that every single gun looks like a generic M16 rifle with various attachments. It’s all boring and grey scratched play doh with smeared and flat textures and all has the same exact silhouette. Even the forerunner and covenant guns look awful. As barely ok as the Prometheons were, I could at least identify them and their weapons in Halo 5. They added some interesting weapons to the sandbox that helped the variety being like a middle ground between human and covenant. 343 really could have expanded a lot of those weapons and abilities to be more interesting and abstract but they just gave up and threw the baby away with the bath water and made everything look and function almost completely identical which is probably why everyone left aside from the other mountains of issues. Well 343, it’s almost like we enjoyed the variety you added in 5 and only wanted a few small changes because lord knows we needed something new to replace the flood seeing how they’re all locked on the ark in Halo 3. Nothing lost, nothing gained.
I want Halo 3.1 and 343 Industries has proven they are not going to make Halo 3.1.
I didn't touch Infinite and I am happy you and others can have fun with it, but I think changes like the movement, the types of equipment being "player focused," and the overall delivery of Halo Infinite's pathetic launch to now I will never give it a chance.
5 minute video restating the same thoughts thrice over.
Eh not rly
Halo Infinite sadly will be the last traditional Halo game
Dude no, it was less then a year for campaign co-op to come out. Still really bad, but it did not take multiple years
100% its advertising i dont just mean making a cool cgi trailer but actually getting big content creators and celebrities playing it I mean look at jynzxi he single handily made rainbow six siege popular again another thing is of course that it’s not new anymore and he has no new content literally only one weapon bruh
