Brad Sams: ''One source told me that [Halo Infinite] MP isn't going to be with single-player this fall.'' (UPDATE: 343 denies claim. See threadmarks)

[Uzupedro]

In his weekly news show, Brad sams said that a source (trustworthy, who has been right in the past) told him that there is a possibility that Multiplayer will not come with the Single-player at launch, the video, with timestamp:


Update from 343's Community Director:

 

[SanTheSly]

Might wanna ask for a title update to clarify what game you're talking about.

 

[giancarlo123x]

If multi-player doesn't ship with it then this can fuck off for me personally until it releases.

 

[Ocarina_117]

At this point just delay the thing :/

You risk serious brand damage otherwise

 

[Richietto]

What the fuck???

Yep, sorry, I will report asking for the mods to change.

 

[Toumari]

This game sounds like a disaster. They are shipping it out in early access.

 

[TheJackdog]

I would be shocked and honestly expect it the other way around

 

[rokkerkory]

Please put a rumor banner on this

[Precious Tritium]

If ever a game couldn't be delayed it's this one, puts 343 in a tough spot especially with covid.

 

[Expy]

Good thing it's on GamePass.

 

[Saucycarpdog]

That would be a death sentence for Halo. Every fan would be raging.

"Fans were pretty pissed that Halo 5 didn't have a lot of multiplayer content at launch, so how about we ship Infinite with no multiplayer?'

 

[wwm0nkey]

If that's true, delay the game

 

[Kalor]

Just delay the game then. But I'd find that surprising since the singleplayer sounds like the kind of thing that would need to be delayed rather than the multiplayer since it's unlike anything they've done so far.

 

[Deleted member 4260]

If this is true, delay the fucking game. It sucked when 5 didn't have a Forge mode and BTB at launch. They need to have a feature complete game at launch.

 

[qatak]

This would be wild. I think they'd be better off with a full delay rather than release staggered.

 

[Border]

No multiplayer will be available this fall? This is going to be devastating for games like Fortnite, PUBG, Destiny, Rainbow 6, etc.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Yeah...they should have just delayed the whole thing.

 

[Deleted member 6263]

Damn...

Maybe a delay is needed, if true.

 

[lemonade]

Game as a service where service (multiplayer) and graphics (ray tracing) come at a later date.

 

[shadowsdarknes]

Ummm...What?

No multiplayer at launch? Delay the game.

 

[Omnicore]

Let's hope this is incorrect.

 

[SunBroDave]

This game is coming in hotter than Chief to Earth's orbit at the beginning of Halo 3

 

[MercuryLS]

Come on, you can't release a game like Halo without MP at launch.

 

[Lashley]

There's no way this is true

 

[FullNelson]

This game sounds like a disaster. They are shipping it out in early access.

This is exactly it. No Ray-tracing at launch, no multiplayer (if true), lackluster demo. Just delay the game.

 

[Deleted member 1003]

Whoa what?

 

[dlauv]

If true: what a trainwreck. Makes sense in light of this thread:

343: May not have Halo Infinite Public Beta Flight Test “ unprecedented challenges of this year”

343 Studio Head Chris Lee : "With Halo Infinite, we are also committed to building the game in partnership with our community but given the unprecedented challenges of this year, we’re not quite where we expected to be in terms of broader public flighting," Lee's statement reads. "While not the...

Legit thought by the title, this would be a Call of Duty thing.

I know they're talking about this Halo game being a "platform" but they sure as shit better communicate what that even means.

 

[Zeusy]

Just delay it already then if true. The backlash will not be worth it.

 

[Linus815]

i can see that being a thing if the game is some massive open world with tons of repeatable activities and coop
(assuming "multiplayer" in this context means pvp)

 

[Magneto]

Delay the game. Delay the goddamn game.

 

[darkside]

Good thing it's on GamePass.

Click to shrink...

Gamepass shouldn't be used an excuse to send out a half finished game.

 

[Makeno]

Can't believe this is true.

 

[That1GoodHunter]

I can't believe it one bit

That would be a death blow to the game's reception coming out the gate

 

[Goldenroad]

Wait...so no co-op even? I find that almost impossible to believe. Halo games have always been built around multiplayer.

 

[Vinc]

Please delay this game. Like I said elsewhere, for years if you have to. I know they're launching a console and need it. I get it. But this is Halo we're talking about. Make a big move, MS. If this launches and it's bad, it will not help the Xbox brand at all in the long run. You can't sacrifice Halo.

 

[Rodelero]

I just can't believe this is true. This would be suicidal from Microsoft.

 

[EchoChamber]

Please delay the game..... another year without halo is okay.

 

[PhantomArtifice]

If multiplayer isn't shipping day one, they absolutely should have delayed this.

 

[--R]

Unless something has gone terribly wrong these past weeks, it should be there at launch. So don't worry too much about this rumor.

 

[Ocarina_117]

It's so disappointing to see this.

This halo had the most hype I've seen for any halo game since 3.

Wtf man

 

[SofNascimento]

Jesus Christ was is going on with this game...

 

[Deleted member 58846]

🤦‍♂️

 

[strikeselect]

That would be the cherry on top of the shit sundae

 

[Duxxy3]

If it's true, they need to delay it. It would be like releasing COD without any multiplayer.

 

[Thiago]

Holy shit.

They have to delay this game.

 

[Apathy]

Yeah this can't be real because if its real then Halo is fucked

 

[ZeoVGM]

There's absolutely no chance of this.

There is no possible way Microsoft would do something so stupid.

... Right?
