I liked Halo Infinite
>>721595431...by me
>>721595431It alright. It makes the mission structure and story of Halo 2 look god-like in comparison though
Everything after 3 was hot garbage.
>>721595431The entirety of Infinite felt like a Chapter 1. I kept waiting for the big reveal that was around the corner. Then the game ended.
>>721597610They were supposed to release more, but the game died and they stopped all future campaign content. Also they did their little company name swap and kept most of the faggots from 343 anyway.
>>721595431I liked most of the guns, the Enemy AI is really fun and engaing, kinda disliked the "boss" enemies for being bullet spongey. but the games biggest downfall was the open world kinda just felt really samey and i wish they did more different locals. CE took you from mountain cliffsides, tropical islands, swamps and Snowy canyons and with this its just all forests and hills and forerunner facilities. also no real big halo setpieces was really lame.
>>721597984Oh yeah I know they were supposed to make more campaign dlcs.But they didnt. And the final product is dogshit.If they didnt constantly hire 8 month contractors, they would've released a better game.>>721598239
>>721598239Oh and also depsite fighting the banished, theres 0 original banished vehicles that we saw from halo wars 2, even the variants of existing covenant vehicles just made them more red and brutish.
RUNLIDL SPARTAN
>>721599624That monkey is not Lidl material.
Story and open world are irredeemable.I had some bits of fun using the grapple and avoiding enemies entirely as I tried to beat it as quickly as possible. But its not a Halo game. As a Halo game its utter trash
>>721595431I liked Capt Lasky and UNSC Infinity.
>>721599721He crushed the competition.

>>721600027
>>721599784Broken, scattered, hunted, and defeated even.
>>721595431It was ok but I would have preferred a traditional linear series of missions. 1 biome in fucking HALO is crazy.
>>721600027NOTSOFAST
>>721600429Wait, who's that little nigga on the right?
>>721600460The last face you will ever sneed
there's no continuity between the games anymore unless you read the books.
>721600429
>>721600027>build up villain in a game no one played>have him curbstomp da chief then die off-screen>villain faction is a cult of personality so they never shut up about this guy that's now dead and we know nothing about>OH SHIT NIGGA HES STILL ALIVE GET HYPE FOR THE DLC WE'RE NOT MAKINGTheir use of Atriox was bizarre.
>>721595431It's slopThe story doesn't even progress towards amything meaningful.The only people keeping it afloat now are autists who use the models for spartan renders and people who refuse to admit it's just a mediocre game. Typically younger generation that defend 343. They're going through stockholm syndrome still after being beaten and abused across 3 games for so many years.
I continue to think that Halo is actually really well suited for a more open-ended game like an open world game or a metroidvania. It just works in my mind, Halo is a very "sandboxy" game and good exploration+Halo seems like it would go hand in handProblem is that there's no real blueprint for a tightly designed open world shooter, they're all casual far cry-esque checklist games
>>721595431Campaign had potential, glad they can go all out with implementing its cut ideas in both the CE remake and sequel. Halo really needs these changes.
>>721600027quick rundown on whatever the hell /hg/ has been getting up to?
The good halo was 1.2 was boring.Haven't played 3 since I was a kid.Reach is the most overrated peice of shit I've ever fucking played.Who cares about the rest.
>721600662
>>721601057Playing Halo. What else would we be doing? :-)
the sandbox is the best of any halo (i've never played h5) and the community made maps are awesomesadly campaign is doodoo, dev made maps have a lot of misses, vehicles are overpowered and janky, physics are weird and graphics could look way better
>>721600968Fixed that for you.
>>721601248We love the endless
Anyone else wonders if Halo 7 is in dev hell right now?MS hires people for 18 months because blue state laws are retarded and MS don't want to pay full benefits to anyone for any reason. The newly formed Halo Studios has show nothing but what fans could recreate themselves using Ue5 or A.I..Microdick, like any big tech company, relies heavily on indians and now they cannot import more, and have to fire what they got in due time.Halo 7 was intended to be UE5 pajeetware but Trump cut the flow of work visas so the only way to finish the game is by either moving Halo Studios (Formerly 343i Chucks) to India or give the project to someone else.
>make three (3) mainline Halo games that fans hate>fuck up the MCC on PC (then get another studio to fix it, and you take all the credit)>be rewarded by being renamed THE Halo Studio™, responsible for making all Halo games in the future>first project as Halo Studios™ is a basic bitch remake of Halo CE on Unreal 5>leaks/rumors claim even that is too hard for you Imagine being 343 and getting away with so many fuck ups. I've seen studios lose everything over minor mistakes. Does someone at 343 have dirt on Phil Spencer? How do they keep getting away with it?
>>721597984>>721598389Didn't they release the campaign extensions via some MP only thing? Like what COD does now.
>>721599784Nuh uh.
>>721601126Disclaimer: Halo is being played.
>>721601519Correction: Halo WAS being played. Now it isn't.
>>721601380Infinite MP got updates but all the support for the base game, including what was initially promised, was cancelled.The campaign is treated as DLC for the MP mode.Infinite got to the last drop of good faith fans had on Microsoft.Everyone moved on. It is a dead franchise, I would even say it is even more dead than Duke Nukem.
>>721601589>Everyone moved on. It is a dead franchise, I would even say it is even more dead than Duke Nukem.MY BROTHER, STAND FIRM.
What a grunt sees when chief gets his 6th core
>me when I have to explain why infinite isn't actually that terrible of a halo game as far as the multiplayer goesIt's pretty fun. I hop in every couple of months. Never played the campaign though. >>721601116Why did they give the brute cornrows lmfao
>>721601726>big>gibdoom reference!? :o
>>721601815From the thumbnail it seems like he's carrying a midget upside down on his chest
>>721601815It's actually one of the few design choices they got right (at least if you consider the 343 artstyle right)
>>721595431You like playing with dog turds.
>>721601342Doubt, Halo Studios only lead development of Halo games made by third party studios. Halo "7" might be a different type of Halo game when it comes in 2027, meaning singleplayer, no multiplayer at all with a huge focus on gameplay, nothing like Halo CE-Reach, nothing like Halo 4 and 5, what Halo Infinite should have been.
>721601116>alternate universe cloneStupid littul SHITviator. It's about TIME. And yours is up.
>>721601815I have been playing infinite recently and have been having lots of fun, invasion and firefight have been great, if only the damn game launched like this.
>>721602515Not canon.
>>721602524Holy fuck invasion is finally back? No goddamn way kek. I haven't played since like march and I didn't play for long then.
reminder that BLACKviator is an absent father
>>721602697but where does the Endless fit into this
>>721602182
>>721595431good for u :33
I have a proposal.Reboot the series. Have you play as Arby. Incorporate actual stealth elements. Have him start as a lowly Minor and level his way up to an Ultra, make the game a quasi RPG. Have character builds. The boss battles are Spartans.
>>721602749in my BIG smelly ass
>>721602823Terrible.Make a new IP or a spin off.Why keep the corpse around?
>>721602749Genocided by WoL and the scions
>>721595431Okay?I didn't really like it in terms of gun options, environmental layout, mission structure, writing, or art style, but you do you.
The campaign was mid but multiplayer was good
>>721602663Yeah they kinda stealth dropped it apparently. Sadly no elites, you get Banished AI controlled Spartans for one of the teams with banished/covie weapons but you can choose loadouts and spawn locations and all the maps are pretty cool with unique objectives.
>>721600968>>721601248>act man and Marty in the same category Lmao no. Any troon that likes act man hates Marty, and any heterosexual male that has had sex before likes Marty hates fag man.
>>721602789not him but trusting these sites is for midwits 90% of the time
>>721603114Marty is an has-been and you're a niggerfaggot for liking him in 2025.
>>721602884wholesome crammer
>An AI who has control of all the forerunner arsenals in the Galaxy gets defeated by a bunch of space pirate monkeys??
>>721603048Ah so you just fight bots? Sounds like a missed opportunity
>>721602789I'm not an AI, you stupid fucking tranny, go back to /hg/ or your gay ass discord where you belong, leaks are showing that's what you're getting. Did Pierre literally telling your mentally ill asses that they're no longer making Halo games the same way Bungie or 343 made them didn't ring a bell. Did you memory hole Matt Booty stating that Halo Studios will have to work with third parties now on Halo games? Don't tell me you live in a bubble, anon.
>>721603157Midwit does not mean what you think it means, but I get the sentiment of your post and I do agree those sites are scummy, but the image gets the point across.That post was just displeasing to read.Unnatural for casual conversation, it read like a pitch.
>>721603668Sorry to burst your bubbles but that's how it is, are you actually that stupid to believe that Halo Studios has built up back to over 1000 fucking people again?
>>721603668>Midwit does not mean what you think it meanswhat does it mean then? i didn't mean to say that he's a retard so i thought midwit was appropriate
>>721603358Nah I meant theming wise, you do fight other players it’s just that one of the teams have red AI hologram stuff on them as opposed how reach used elites for one of the teams.
>>721603575Now, that is a little better.>Halo Studios will have to work with third parties now on Halo gamesThat is all I ever asked of them, but erm...they did also say Infinite would have splitscreen and further SP / Co-Op support (Lies) and Xbox is in such a state of disarray.All we have seen so far are the UE5 bullshots and that is it.I mean, I would like it very much if Id Software would tackle Halo except Dark Ages sucks and I would be pretty upset if they jumped into Halo before finishing a game that feels in the AAA version of "Early Access". Dark Ages got LESS content than Eternal, and we have not received the DLC or a Master Level, so part of me wants Id to tackled Halo but simultaneously my faith on Id software was chipped somewhat by Dark Ages lackluster launch.It is LESS like shit now but it is not good. As much as I like Doom Eternal, it does not feel like it was a tough act to follow on and Id is THE best studio they got.I doubt Treyarch, Sledgehammer or Raven have been contacted.What it could also mean is that Halo Studios will work with "literally who" studios and pull something like Aliens Colonial Marines. A low budget game that was given the IP license.At this point I feel Halo should be mercy killed, alongside all of Xbox.
>>721603772Midwit is a person with an average Iq.So I could infer that you are saying that sites that check for AI writing are for normal people, but the sentiment of your post is that they are for gullible people.Nitwit means someone is below average intelligence, therefore MIDwit means someone is around or above the 100 Iq mark but below 130.
>>721604308you're right, i didn't even know the existence of nitwit, thanks
>>721604113They're leading it, it just means it's going to play like a Halo game but with sprint, clamber, and slide. From there they'll do whatever else. Basically, it's not going to feel like another studio is working on the game because Halo Studios is there to make sure it's Halo, it will use their story, art, music, lore, and gameplay.
>>721595431I liked the multiplayer but haven't played it in years. Too slow updates
>>721597610Yeah I couldn't believe that. I started the game. Did the far cry main mission towers. Then it ended. Lmao. So odd.
>>721603575>Halo Studios will have to work with third parties now on Halo games?Halo Boomer shooter with CE aesthetics made by a specialized studio? I hope so
>>721604448>They're leading itThat was what 343i said of the Paramount show, and that turned out poorly.What was the name of bitch? Wolf-something or the other.In any case, the people responsible of dragging the IP through the mud are in charge of supervising its proper use? Are you kidding me? The only good future for Halo is that MS just whores the IP and have it in every crossover imaginable.Doom, Sonic, Smash, Metroid, Minecraft (again), New Blood.The Helldivers crossover was a step in the RIGHT direction.
>>721605168Game development is different from that shit. Why were you even interested in that crap in the first place, it wasn't even a video game?>The only good future for Halo is that MS just whores the IP and have it in every crossover imaginable.That will kill it further and hurt those IPs, Sonic as a IP is dead, would have been better if Sega would have just retired the damn franchise after the Dreamcast. If Halo is to not get killed by Microsoft, it needs to have a good video game, and I mean an actual good video game, not the shit Bungie made, not the COD copy 343 made, a good actual FPS Halo game that doesn't treat the singleplayer like a second fiddle.
>>721595431>*bbrrraaaapppppp*oopsie! I thought it was just a fart turns out it was a Halo Infinite!JEGAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I MADE ANOTHER Halo Infinite CHANGE ME NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
>>721601575I've been playing non stop for two months. I've bought 34k in spartan points since I work at gamestop. I've been shopping and buying all the items I've wanted since launch. I just wish I got that Smellbringer and Red Shift armor coatings when they were available. :(
Here’s your Chief of Staff for Halo. Want to know why it’s alll gone to shit? We listent and lurnt from a BLACK woman
>literal sheboon
>>721607904she works at riot now actually
>>721605434>Sonic as a IP is deadAre you currently drinking mouthwash or huffing paint?Sonic is doing so well right now that Sega is being cocky.That Ip got 3 successful movies in a row with another one coming.The fact Paramount managed to succeed with Sonic having access to Halo got me dumbfounded.>and I mean an actual good video game, not the shit Bungie madeAh, huffing paint it is.
>>721607904That really looks like Eddie Murphy in drag.Is Halo 7 a sequel to Norbit?>Elisa BabooneNo fucking way this is real.
>>721608543Sonic is fucking dead, you stupid ass normal faggot. Popularity is a death sentence and the series was better off when Sega were making hardware. They censored the games, they got rid of Sonic's cool factor, everything is a shitty fucking crossover and stupid reference to past games. They keep making boost shit and repeating the same fucking levels from Sonic past games instead of making something new. All of the character's character development from the Dreamcast days went out with the wind. It would have been better if Sonic just died with Sega's hardware at this point. The series isn't the same anymore, it's soulless. Of course, some retarded normal faggot like you would think it's doing fine.>The fact Paramount managed to succeed with Sonic having access to Halo got me dumbfounded.I don't give a shit, make a video game and stop trying to make this shit a movie, they're separate. Sonic will never get to Mario's level because Nintendo knows to always focus on the fucking children and not grow the fuck up with them.
Halo hasn't been good since 2001. The sooner you accept it, the less it hurts.
>>721600027>get handed the Didact, Jul Mdama, and this absolute chad Brute>genuine 10/10 villains in any other franchise>proceed to do jack shit with all three343 really can't write a villain to save their lives huh
>>721608913Actually forgot how pretty they managed to make the singleplayer look in this game. It was stunning.
>>721610180>dead in first appearance >dead three seconds into his second appearance>character assassinated in his second appearance, barely even appearsAt least The Endless might lead somewh->reboot
>>721609127>Popularity is a death sentence>sonic
>>721610639Yes, did I stutter?
>>721601368I really think 343 Halo is just a satanic cult at this point.Bungie Halo is flawed by soulful created with good intentions even down to their contracted last game they were burnt out on (reach).343 Halo is like some kind of sick humiliation ritual with annual sacrifices and mockery of the legacy of something good. They'll never get it quite right. For every step forward they take two steps back.
>>721610180I will never forgive them for what they did to Jul 'Mdama
>>721610967They both suck, stop bringing religion garbage into this. Bungie sucks because they went into this making a gimped as FPS series after making the better Marathon series before it, 343 came making Call of fucking Duty because Microsoft wanted it so badly. Infinite came close to getting things right but they cut all the good stuff. At least at lot of the good stuff they cut will show up in the Halo CE remake and Halo 7 From Halo Studios and the third parties they'll work with. Halo Infinite's campaign was so close, damn.
>>721611372*ass
>>721610180I don't know who any of these fuckers are, only the Brute guy seems interesting because he looks like he will be a video game boss in a future game.
>>721600793You know what true. The FPS genre could use a metroidvania revolution of its own.
Infinite was absolute dog shit. The multi wasn't terrible but half the guns looking and feeling shit to use pretty much ruined it for me. That and the customisation being both shitty and heavily monetised...And the story mode was absolute irredeemable fucking trash. Shit characters, shit guns, shit idea, shit story, shit fights. Fucking hell it was bad.
>>721611372>>721611426WrongEnjoy your demake
>>721611563The next time they give Chief equipment upgrades, they should go with their original idea of shoving them in the open world and forcing players to find it. Would be a great fuck you to retarded ass normal faggots, too stupid to actually play and explore the game world.
>>721611626Right, Halo was never anything special. Infinite actually improved the gameplay but god damn, did they miss everything else>kept regenerative health instead of finally dropping it for good and bringing back health packs>no wildlife hostile and non-hostile>no different biomes>no unique levels>side missions were fun but repetitive>couldn't infiltrate Banished ships to blow them up>no Scarab boss fights>no Stratos Sentinel boss fights>no Endless reveal>Atriox isn't the main antagonist>didn't shove all of Chief's Equipment in the open world and made us find it>Banished are the same Covenant we fought in the past with only one new never before seen or fought alien>not enough Sentinel types>boss fights are mostly Elites and Brutes>no Warthog Run>game doesn't feel complete because once again those pricks at 343 couldn't blow up the world Chief is on>Chief and Cortana story was cringy in Halo 4, cringy in Halo 5, and while toned down, cringy in Halo Infinite>too much of a pussy to just name The Weapon Cortana despite it already being hinted at anyway>to be continued>still nothing on what the flat face vampire chick from Halo 4 did to Chief>lack of weapons and vehicles>no rain>no under water sections>no under lava sections>no under hazardous liquid sections (acid, radioactive waste)>no under alien coolant sections At least we'll get Offensive Bias in the future, I guess.
>>721612063>Halo was never anything specialthinking like this is the weirdest thing ever. halo was an anomaly in the video game industry
>>721612760>popularity againOh, will you shut up about popularity. Normalfags are stupid and need a game to hold their hands for them, that's what Halo was and it just kept getting more dumbed down with each entry. It's multiplayer was also nothing to write home about. It has always been nothing more than overrated shit. It was loved because it was a trend, that's it. I'm glad normalfags are about to get priced out of gaming, this medium needs a fix. 9/11 was a mistake.
>>721612996>will you shut up about popularityno
>>721595431SPARTANCORESAnd quirk chungus Cortana along with Morty tier brown sidekickI'm gonna pass
>>721613284Popularity doesn't and has never made a game good. Normalfags have no opinion on what's a good game because they don't play video games.
>>721597610I thought I was headed to fight the grey alien bitch, I killed the gorillas and was in this alien building seeming like it was some big event and then it lead to a cutscene and shit me back out into the open world to do more towers and I dropped the game.
>>721603114Whose marty?
SoYou guys think they're gonna bring in 343 Loreshittery to the reboot?Feel like it'll be kinda hard for them to fully remove the very implicit " Forerunners are just ancient humans" thing.
>>721613729>You guys think they're gonna bring in 343 Loreshittery to the reboot?Why wouldn't they? Their game, their lore, they can do what they want with it.
