Halo | Now Infinitely more Halo

How does one dev fuck up so much

By rodeoclown Go To PostI think I just reached the conclusion that this game really isn't for me at the moment. This "season" doesn't really seem to address much and the content update that comes with it is pretty paltry. Maybe if Forge actually comes out and the community can start making content that 343 isn't able to provide.

Ultimately, the game has real fundamental problems with things like the networking and the multiplayer progression that they seem incapable or uninterested in addressing. Instead, they focus on "problems" that don't exist like eliminating skill jumps.

This release was their chance to take a step back and refocus, instead they do asinine things like make two different damage amounts for BR melee and nerf jumping.

There's probably still desync out the ass.

Out of everything I feel like the biggest troll move is nerfing the mangler and then having a 25 melee kill challenge for LSS. Your best chance to farm melee kills would have been with the old mangler.

I really don't feel motivated to play an even larger FFA given their networking bullshit thus far. Also get eliminated early and you have to wait for the game to end? Quite the waste of time.

These connections and desync even in 4v4s, they didn't even try to fix this shit. Also still doing awful play this gametype that's on rotation challenges and there's even MORE gametypes now. 343 is such jokes man.

don't want to spam thread but this is just so lol

Yeah, the gun jamming glitch is really fun. Look, I know it feels like beating a dead horse, but I don't know how stuff like this ships and I don't know how they continue to just shoot themselves in the foot all the time.

I also love how they championed that you could complete any battle pass at any time, but then locked the season one pass behind the premium pass for season two. It just seems like they are incapable of getting anything right at the moment.

Game had a patch, bunch of fixes but desync/networking issues still there and making it absolute garbage. Might even be worse. Smh.

The desync can't be that bad can it. Haven't seen the word used so much since mw2

I hopped on hoping it was better and my first game had absolutely shit ping. Second game had better ping but it felt like brehs were popping out of my ass and every other shot wasn't landing right. Audio sounded wrong for both. Just closed it and sighed.

Played enough games now, even ones (especially those?) I did very well in figured out Infinite's biggest sin of all even after patches is that every encounter feels like RNG (even what you think is a good headshot randomly misses at a great ping and then the next shot you take that you know is trash will one shot a breh instead, probably desync, fuck knows really) and the damage comes in so late or so delayed you never really know how fucked you are.

Related to that, I just often find that individual encounters mean less. The way the game is geared towards team shots makes it less likely that players are able to go on bigger sprees, make big plays, etc. You can get a kill, but then get cleaned up half a second later by an enemy way across the map.

It's weird, but I find myself missing Halo 5 a lot when I play Infinite.

So will Forge come out together with Co op for Season 3 at the end of the year or ?

Co-op flights are this month and it's set to be released in August. Forge is set for September. Card subject to change and all.

My big hope for Forge is that they release Forge-made maps along with it because the game so badly needs content. They have had community map makers making maps in Forge for a while now, so it should be feasible.

The aim assist is insane especially at a distance. Everything should absolutely be pulled back on that score. Hell even the distance I can clean someone up with an AR makes no fuckin' sense. Makes objectives that much more annoying too.

Ultimate reward this week for completing 20 challenges and the final weekly one:

Really shows how many fucks MS give about Halo aswell. Game must be racking in that mtx money.
I'll give it one more shot with season 3 otherwise I'm nuking it out of my library forever.

Today is the last day of August and campaign co-op isn't going to hit their target date. Forge is supposed to hit next month and I think there's zero chance they actually ship it.

Not only are they still missing all the features and content, but they continue to give deadlines and then totally miss on all of them. And the data mining for season three is looking pretty dire (I've heard four maps and like one new mode).

i haven't kept up on Forge but hopefully people can create some unique maps and there's a server browser. Last hope this game is the community being able to make stuff.

343 either doesn't care or lack the talent for what is expected out of a flagship title. Then again, I don't think Microsoft sees Halo as their flagship title anymore. Game Pass is their flagship.
