  • Halo Infinite has reached a weird spot in the last month, with the new anti-cheat not working very effectively, the network update causing mixed reactions, and the experience of the new Content Update cycles instead of seasons. In today's video we will talk about the state of Halo Infinite in 2024, what the next few months for the game could look like, and more. Thanks for watching and have a great day! #halo #haloinfinite

    It's so annoying with AAA games nowadays releasing with barely any content and then just playing catch up until they get the game into a good state. Then they pull the plug...Battlefield is going through the same thing and it's just sad. Infinite is a really fun Halo game and IMO the best multiplayer Halo 343 put out to date. They need to nail the next title to justify what they're doing with Infinite or I'm done with 343 man.

    Halo has something special if people keep coming back to play, me included. It’s a game that doesn’t have any competition that feels remotely close (other than Destiny due to shared DNA) to how it plays. I love the world it’s built (hate the retconns), the stories it tells and the possibilities it has for the future, but I can’t help but feel like 343i keeps dropping the ball. Halo Infinite was doing good, seasons were getting better and content was being released in a more timely schedule, but when they shifted to CU’s and I saw the shop content vs. the amount of playable content we were getting, Infinite went from what I played every day to something I maybe play once every week or two. Players are not piggy banks, and we deserve better prices, better content and better games. That may come off as entitled, but I don’t feel like it is. Yes, Infinite is F2P, but most of the hardcore Halo fans that are still playing to this day I can guarantee you paid full price for the campaign that was not worth the money. We still get charged for almost everything and the ‘free’ content we’re allowed to earn is usually the least interesting and half of it more often than not is XP boosts. Competitive in Infinite feels great, but the sandbox is lacking and the forge team and community forgers have literally carried this game. If that content was available from the launch, the population wouldn’t have hemorrhaged as fast as it did. I’m just kind of tired of excuses from 343i and Microsoft. I remember people in the community were comparing Infinite to Reach and saying that Infinite had nowhere near the amount of content and some of the community team were trying to sway opinion and say it wasn’t that bad. Reach literally costed WAY less to make and had like 4x the amount of content and it was pretty much all earnable after the price of admission. When they took the reins of Halo, they knew what they were signing up for. It has a monumental legacy and big shoes to fill, but it’s the price they pay. Everybody will keep comparing the new games to the Bungie games and rightfully so. Those games set standards, they built the pillars and a foundation that we haven’t really seen since Reach. I’ll always be around for Halo, but I really hope they can start making changes instead of more empty promises.

    • @BBKDRAGOON
      @BBKDRAGOON  Месяц назад +3

      You're comment about Reach being bigger in terms of content and costing less is something I am really thinking about regularly. Smaller teams put together H3 in 3 years.... I recognize game dev is hard, and complex, but so many of the triple a fps games are so content lacking in contrast with what we got 10 years ago and idk, it's not like games have gotten radically better, so I'm just wondering what is causing this shift

  • @condsy
    @condsy Месяц назад +5

    I think my main problem is I just can't fathom how the decision to drop the old anti-cheat and swap to EasyAntiCheat was made. The community has been talking about the problems with EAC in MCC for at least a year now. They surely would've known that EAC would open up similar vulnerabilities in Infinite. So the question on my mind is, was this a decision made in order to outsource the maintenance of the anti-cheat? So that they didn't have to use their in-house resources to keep testing/updating the "Arbiter" anti-cheat? This was the first season I decided to grind ranked and I just got to Onyx, encountered essentially 0 OBVIOUS cheaters in ranked before this update but now I have no motivation to play the game. Also, the reporting system is still bad, you have to submit a clip of the player cheating with the gamertag visible but the file size limit makes it hard to submit a clip of significant length.

    • @BBKDRAGOON

      VERY well said, and that's the first time I've heard that speculation, that it could be to outsource the management of it. Also congrats on Onyx btw! But yeah, I don't understand it, Mint made a bunch of videos warning about this months ago when they did the squad battle network test

  • @N7Defender
    @N7Defender Месяц назад +3

    I’ve loved halo infinite since day 1 but haven’t played it since October. For a live service game it feels like it’s light years behind other games. Each season lasted way too long and the fact there’s only been one gun added to the sandbox is depressing. I’ll be there to play the next halo game day one but I feel like the IP is just dead now. They can’t attract a new audience with how hard halo can be for new players and just doesn’t have the same weight the old halo name used to have.
    I hope I’m wrong!

    It would be wonderful if Microsoft would ask Certain Affinity to make a true classic Halo game, content complete, with nothing but bug fixes as needed and maybe 2 or 3 map packs as far as support goes. Give the classic fans a true game, give the franchise a reset, and give 343 time to develop whatever it is they want to do next.

All the new shop content and the "dev made" (in forge) maps added in 2024 have all been made by other development studios instead of 343. Microsoft is switch to only contract work for new content. That is such a huge deal concerning the state of the game and nobody is talking about it. Great video as always, Arbiter.

    Hey Arbiter! I hope the pc build is going well. I hate to agree with you but I'm also doubting we'll see another Halo anytime soon.

This could possibly help with us seeing a game sooner, one can only hope.

    You DID describe it well. I like listening to you talk. You have a very chill relaxing voice. I agree. Halo and infinite is in a strange spot. Wish they would have given us a couple more seasons before they switched to just selling everything in the shop. But overall, it’s a solid game. Infinite is easily the best halo 343 has put out. And in MY opinion, it’s my favorite halo multiplayer of all time. The aesthetic, the gameplay, everything just feels super smooth and fluid. I like it and will always play it.

    Getting rid of battle passes and completely switching to short event passes doesn't feel as rewarding because they're removing long term rewards from the game in favor of limited time short term rewards. I personally don't want some lack luster pass with 1 set of armor and a bunch of filler items that I can earn within a few days of playing because if it is easy to get, everyone will be using it and decrease the sentimental value of it. Same with the store items. I want something I can equip my spartan with to show off like "Hey I like this game and put a lot of effort into it, this armor set shows that!" Pretty much the only long term rewards in the game now worth grinding for that is like that is the Hero Rank rewards which is the Mk 6 gen 3 kit and the coatings. Which are amazing rewards, but to be the only one for SUCH a long term goal it really feels like an impossible feat and not worth it to most players.

Nothing worth earning in the game because everything is in the shop, Gruntpocalypse is a quick bit of xp but is mindnumbingly boring compared to regular FF, and the game just isn't exciting anymore.

    They really had finally gained momentum at the end of season 5 and then they just pulled the plug for no good reason. Maybe the whales are buying all the new bundles, but a battlepass would have really helped with player retention and been a sign of good faith that they are still supporting the game in spite of them moving to future projects.
    At this point, I think they need to rollback the update and go back to the previous system, since we won't get much help from 343 moving forward.

    Personally I'm very frustrated with infinite, it really feels like it's been limping along or just getting by (as you said in the video) and not taking any major strides. Since day 1 this game feels like it's been on life support and then, just as 343 were hitting some sort of stride with season 4 & 5, they ditch seasons and start doing shop updates..... I loved playing this game for a long time but now more than ever it feels like 343 doesn't respect it's fan base at all. If they did they'd continue their 10 year halo infinite plan as they planned to and do whatever it takes to get this game out of the gutters like they did for mcc.

    Infinite is the only game i play religiously (i switch to titanfall 2/Doom when ping is bad but barely). With that said, i dont care if i get seasons or CU or whatever. The problem i have with the game is the repetitiveness of it.. I play fiesta mainly and the map rotation is boring af. I dont understand how hard can it be to "port" some forge maps into the playlist. Also the SBMM.. Pff. But most of all they need to adress the weapons as some are useless or they behave differently to their campaign counterparts and give us some new ones.

I try other games for a few weeks but ultimately I'm addicted to the Halo infinite game loop. I'd probably just play bots in academy if I had to... To get my fix. Maybe it's BECAUSE it's so broken, I'm trying to constantly tweak settings to find the perfect sens etc. I'm a pc nerd... I chase tiny, incremental progress in fps, network performance, driver frame time etc. It's a sickness Halo infinite feeds 😂😂😂

    Arbiter,
    I beat halo infinite campaign about a few weeks ago. And most multiplayer achievements. I'm just grinding the arena. 🤷‍♂️ Getting my gains in, watching the pros.. it's a small eco system but honestly, the games fun.
    I don't care how big the eco system is. I wanna support the franchise. Get better, my routine is literally, work, workout, watch twitch of ogre, or spartan of sen 😂 go home practice on halo 😂 there could be 100 players. I'll be here till Halo 7 🤣
    Have you noticed the halo esports page? They are putting some love on its fronts for the lack of popularity and coverage. I can't help but feel 343i pays attention to that and bases it's development projects around that 🤷‍♂️

    "What would you have your arbiter do?"
    I am slowly becoming a part of the bungie stans 😂, Its not really funny but the thing is I hate bungie stans that will consume and praise bungie for everything they did good with Halo.
    My faith was renewed in 343 once season 4 came out, saw that infection was out and wanted to try it, Season 5 came out and then it started to get hype.
    Then there was no Season six, season seven, season eight, etc.
    343 doesn't bother to add things to their game to make it better bc "We don't get money from it" -_-.
    People saying "OoHh They NeEd To makE MoneY!" Is the most obvious statement ever, gaming industries/developers have always had that goal, its their fricking job, everyone knows that. The thing is 343 doesn't bother adding the few things infinite still really needs bc they're lazy, If 343 doesn't make a solid next game that was at least at the level of H4, I'm gonna quit the Halo community, and just start making cringe fanfics.
    Seriously, I have had it up to this far and 343 still does dumb crap. I'm tired, I want it to end, I want to go back and play Reach's multiplayer during its peak.
    For the love of God 343 please change.

    • @BBKDRAGOON
      @BBKDRAGOON  Месяц назад

      When you mentioned needing to make money, I fully agree. It's obvious, that every title needs to be monetarily successful, and yet look at so many of the competitor FPS games and they have left Halo in the dust in terms of content. CoD may be a horrific microtransaction machine, but the amount of maps, updates, the free battle royale, yearly release they deliver... idk it's just hard seeing that and then seeing hundreds of dollars of skins in the Infinite shop, with just forge maps being added slowly

  • @Kairgb
    @Kairgb Месяц назад

    Haven't ran into cheaters. but its the store pricing/lack of reasons to play for me.
    why does ranked have no new maps or even community forge maps?
    why isn't there more than 2 ranked playlists per season. would love to play ranked dubs or ffa
    kind of nitpicky here but I don't like how every other social mode that isn't H3 refueled or ranked is just sidekick ar starts on these big or open maps.
    then with the store prices are getting crazier each refresh to where i don't bother looking anytime I get on.
    I feel like so much of this game could be fixed with just one update. just to make it more enjoyable to grind out. not really gonna get into datamined weapons or vehicles. but they are really missing out on that engagement with fans and diehard players

    • @BBKDRAGOON
      @BBKDRAGOON  Месяц назад

      Very well said and precisely what I'm feeling. Ranked needs some new forge maps asap. the limit of the 2 ranked playlists is because population is just gone, they can't support more than two without making search times insane. And yes, I don't really play social because of AR/Sidekick starts, it's just not that fun imo. Even on MCC you can pick the precision starts playlist for slayer.

  • @bocogaming

    I really don't understand 343. This is a serious problem. The game is broken after the last update. It's definitely a situation where they should rollback the last patch and go back to the last rev. This is not rocket science. Happens all the time. That's why devs use version control. Why they are not reverting back until they can fix the cheating and network issues is beyond me.

  • @soccergoku24
    @soccergoku24 Месяц назад

    If forced Cross Play across the entire game is turned On, and no input based matchmaking, then I just don't really care anymore about Infinite. Halo was cool without the PC Port of players ruining the experience for everyone else. I get there's tons of players on PC, but they're an endless number of cheaters as well. Right now, all I play is Halo 5 Custom Games and MCC Custom Games through the browser. I enjoy playing Halo 5 more though because of the experience of feeling like a super soldier, and it has the biggest sandbox out of all the Halo games. But going forward Halo needs to evolve past this Competitive Tactical Warfare being it’s main focus instead of just making the game fun for everyone and actually rewarding players with something that feels satisfying not some stupid nameplate, and cosmetics that isn’t interesting. Hopefully, 343 learns from their past mistakes with releasing MCC in a broken state, Halo 5 false advertisements and horrible campaign, and Infinite Multiplayer being a baby of Halo 3 and Reach. Halo has so much potential, but the developers need to move on from this same game experience logic and make something special for the future.

I'll always be a fan of the series, and I still log onto Infinite regularly for Forge, Firefight and to gawk at my digital action figures. But when you A) realize how much of what makes your favorite game great is due to the teamwork behind it, and B) piece together how Microsoft does things, it leaves me with little hope for the future.
