Gonna break kayfabe for a sec

Why do people say Infinite has a bad sandbox?

>More guns then ever have unique mechanical gimmicks, like the Ravager's AoE charge shot, the Cindershot's manual guided fire mode and bounce/suction (tho that got patched out), the Heatwave's fire switching mode, pretty much everything about the Disruptor, the Hydra's lock on, and more, on top of the usual Needler supercombine and Plasma Pistol overcharge
>Even shit like the BR vs the Commando vs the Stalker Rifle vs the Bandit, or the Sniper vs the Stalker Rifle vs the Skewer etc are way more distinct then the BR vs Carbine vs DMR etc in past games
>Almost every gun is worth using, pretty much the only ones that aren't are maybe the Disruptor and Pulse Carbine, compared to basically every non precision, non power weapon being worthless in the other Halo games after CE
>Has the second largest sandbox in the series after Halo 5

The only explanation I can think of is that people are just assmad that specific classic fan favorites like the Plasma Rifle and Carbine aren't in. That, or the weapons being so distinct actually works against the game because your average normie player only has the BR as your traditional go to all around precision rifle that works in a simple traditional way, so evenn if the Commando, Stalker etc offer alternative options in the precision rifle niche, they feel too different for most players, wheras the BR, Carbine, DMR, Needle Rifle, Light Rifle etc being basically reskins gives the illusion of more variety in that exact easy to use precision rifle role

Is there a better weapon than the ancient Energy Sword?

Qikost smiths spend years working on a single Energy Sword and superheat it up to a million times to produce the finest weapon in the Great Covenant’s arsenal.

Energy Swords are thrice as sharp as gravity hammers and thrice as hard for that matter. Anything a hammer can cut through a Plasma Sword can cut through better; I’m pretty sure a Plasma Sword could easily bisect a demon in full MJOLNIR with a simple vertical slash.

Ever wonder why the prophets never bothered conquering Sanghelios? That’s right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Elite and their Plasma Swords of destruction. Even in the siege of Reach demons targeted the Plasma Sword wielding Elites first over Wraiths or Banshees because their killing power was feared and respected.

So what am I saying? Plasma swords are simply the best weapon the Covenant has ever seen. This is a fact and you can’t deny it.

Didn’t read your post past the first line.
The game just has a lot of redundant, underwhelming, or bullshit weapons. None of the previous games were perfect either but for the most part you could tell what role every weapon was supposed to play in the sandbox. Here you have shit like the commando. It’s just completely pointless. Sucks as a precision weapon and sucks as an automatic. What’s the disruptor good for? It’s a powerhouse in campaign but sucks in multiplayer beyond being an EMP for vehicles specifically, except the PP was quickly patched to be able to EMP so it’s pointless now. The pulse carbine is dog shit. Why’s it burst fire? What was wrong with the plasma rifle that it needed to be burst fire? Why’s the bulldog so shit? Why isn’t there a fuel rod? These niggers really gave enemies a super fast one shot kill sniper that works on vehicles an well over the slow, clearly telegraphed projectiles of the fuel rod? How is this weapon better for the sandbox than the spartan laser? Why are there like 5 BR clones now. The new carbine is ass, the bandit is just a worse BR and if the BR is so busted that you needed the bandit then why make the BR so busted in the first place? Why are there two bandit forms? Just give me the scoped one, the other form is pointless. Why is the shock rifle on the game? A fucking sniper that EMPs? Do they not realise how incredibly annoying that is in both PvE and PvP? You get my point. It’s just a very messy sandbox. It’s also very ugly. Some covie weapons look brutish, others are just regular covenant weapons, others a regular covenant weapons but completely red, and then others look borderline human like like the disrupter and shock rifle. At the same time everyone is so blocky. A lot of weapons look like legos.

There’s a perfect halo weapons sandbox out there, and it’s closer to the older games than what infinite gave us, I can tell you that much.

Was Masterchief responsible for bringing the Flood to High Charity? If he was then he's responsible for genociding billions and billions of Covenant. I like how these alien deaths are treated as inconsequential in the story.

>>738310002

>>
>>738316516
I don't know. Halo is full of MacGuffins. Maybe the Gravemind needed Master Chief to activate some switch or use some key to enable it to invade High Charity. I don't remember the story.
>>
>>738316231
Arbiter was responsible for releasing the flood and the gravemind on delta halo when he opened the containment shields to the library
>>
>>738316758
Cortana outright says that Gravemind used Masterchief as a distraction so he could fly the hijacked human ship in to high charity. What actually got high charity infected was the prophets going full retard and starting their civil war during an outbreak of flood
>>
>>738316231
Like others said it was the convenant's fault that allowed the gravemind to escape. bringing the shield wall down to get the index meant the flood could escape while convenant and unsc vehicles brought on the facility meant the flood could shoot down the sentinel factory in the sky (that burning ship you see when near the end of the level). No sentinels to keep flood in check, dead troopers providing mass, and importantly ships meant the flood could fly straight into high charity to start spreading, made even worse by civil war meant chaos fueled their infection further.

High charity would have never fallen if the prophets didnt go for the index

Shields to the library?

>>738319359
It's a bit funny because once the shields were down, the In Amber Clad landed inside the infected zones near the library. Plot convenience. You can see the ship just before you enter the gondola to the library.

>>738319823
Miranda mentioned that they were having trouble getting through the shields in the last mission. Arbiter happened to open it for her at the just the right moment

Hello, fellow video game enthusiasts. In recent days I have made the journey to The Holy Gamestop at the center of our beloved High Charity, whereupon I chanced on the sight of the most charming Yanme'e broodqueen working upon the stand in service of all gamers. Yea, I did ask her for one (1) copy of Underaged Unggoy Panty Quest IV but, alas, I did spill many lekgolo upon the floor from little more but my embarrassment. Now I have rendered myself a fool in the eyes of the public, and also I am much stupider.
Pray tell, do you fine gentlemen also have such stories of humility in The Holy Gamestop to speak of in these trying times?

>The game just has a lot of redundant
It's got the least amount of redundant and clone/reskin guns in the series other then like CE, though, which you would have seen me talk about had you actually read my post

>underwhelming
Again, if you read my post, you would see me explain that the only guns in the game that really feel underpowered are the Disruptor and the Pulse Carbine, and I'd still take those over most of the autos and non-precision non-power weapons in Halo 2-4

>Commando
I suck shit with it but I've seen comp players near instantly shred people with it.

>Why’s the bulldog so shit?
It's not. You still effectively get instant kills within melee range just like the classic shotgun if you follow up your shot with a instant melee, and the bulldog has much more range then the H2, 3, and even Reach/4 shotty. It's not "better" then the classic shotgun, nessacarily, but it's not inherenly worse either. they also added the Mutilator which has the classic shotty role while being more mechanically interesting.

>gave enemies a super fast one shot kill sniper that works on vehicles an well over the slow, clearly telegraphed projectiles of the fuel rod?
You mean the Skewer? As you say a line later that's more a Spartan Laser replacement.

>The new carbine is ass,
Do you mean the actual carbine they added (which is good, if samey compared to the BR) or the Pulse carbine which we already talked about

>Shock Rifle
I agree this isn't particularly interesting, it should charge up like the railgun or splaser IMO.

>>738320013
Anon the vast majority of my post WAS talking about the quality of the weapon balancing and how distinct each gun is from each other, the total quantity of weapons was my very last point, to show that the good balancing and the lack of redundancy didn't come at the cost of quantity.
