If true, I hope it's as fun to fight as the H3 Scarab.
Nice to see them support all the options. 👍Confirming Dolby Atmos, Windows Sonic and DTS Headphone:X support:
Tbh everything they shared since the delay is just outstanding. I feel this game can't meet my expectations, I'm so hyped for this.
If Scarabs don't dynamically walk around the map as optional objectives to take out then they fucked up.Sounds pretty similiar to me: https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/mdbc04/banished_scarab_possibly_confirmed_the_image_of/

Holy shit the Skewer sound design is A+.
"The result was too many sounds consistently playing which made it more difficult for some of the most important sounds - like enemy's weapon fire, explosions, or bullet impacts - to really register with the player."
I can definitely vouch for this happening in Halo 5. Don't get me wrong, the sounds in both 4 and 5 to me were fan.ta.stic, and especially in H5, you knew exactly what gun was firing, which vehicles were moving around, the Spartan noises, etc. The game sounded excellent.
However, there were indeed times in Halo 5 when there would be so much happening, and so much going on, that the soundscape would become a bit overwhelming and muddled together. I'm glad to see them taking a different approach to Infinite's sound design, and hopefully, things can register and, "breathe" more.
I made a thread last year ripping the Halo 5 multiplayer maps, including the complete lack of mysterious and haunting ambience that was present in so many early Halo maps.
I recently played Halo 5 for the first time and the multiplayer maps are absolutely horrible. What happened?
I never played Halo 5 when it came out back in 2015. I felt burned by Halo 4, and once I saw the continuation of that art design in Halo 5, along with the lack of any LAN or split-screen play, I avoided the game completely. Since Halo 5 is on Game Pass, though, I decided to try it out recently...www.resetera.com
And now we have this -
This is just incredible. I swear if I didn't know any better I would have said this is from Halo: CE. I hope this kind of ambience is present on the multiplayer maps as well. It just adds so much character to the game.
Oh why hello there audio that clearly has something in it

I hope so, but it could always be some random wildlife or even a new scream for the Prometheans.Oh why hello there audio that clearly has something in it

My god these sounds make my imagination run wild!Oh why hello there audio that clearly has something in it

why the hell is anyone using Win7 in 2021 lmaoWonder if this game will run on Windows 7. Seems to have been the case for all "Windows 10" games so far, even Anthem.

See, I'm kinda not expecting Prometheans, not as they were. I'd bet on Cortana having done some tinkering after the end of 5.
Hard to say, they've talked a lot about how they don't want anything to distract from the Chief vs Banished story. I'm sure we'll get them eventually, but I wouldn't be shocked if the base game campaign only has the Banished.I know people didn't like them but I fully expect Prometheans to be in the game.
If I had to guess at a progression...
Banished -> Prometheans -> Flood
And then hopefully the gameplay allows for 4 way fights between all of them and the UNSC.

I really hope people are right about those sounds being a Scarab, it was always disappointing that you didn't fight any in Reach and they didn't even appear in 4 and 5. And if it is a Scarab please be more Halo 3 like as opposed to 2. The Scarab stand ins in 4 and 5 (Lich Kraken) and were more like 2.

Hope in the summer we get some MP flighting.Delaying this game 12 months must have been one of the best decisions Microsoft have made.
it's all sounding great, can't wait to see what the game looks like when they show it off in the summer.

I see it going exactly like CE.There is no way 343 only included the Banished in a Halo campaign in 2021. It would be so so so slim.
Halo Infinite is supposed to be feel like Halo: CE. Well I'd say the Flood were a pretty big part of the game back then, both in gameplay and atmosphere.
Halo: Infinite is going to continue the story of Cortana going crazy. Considering her army is currently mostly synthetics, it'd be weird not to have Prometheans.
I think the reality is that they wanted/want to keep a lot of stuff secret until release, and that's why they're hiding the game that much. Yes, the game will have campaign expansions (unless one was supposed to release a year after release, so... This year in november), but they can still finish the story and start another one (like with Spartan Ops, still taking place in the same world as 4). I really think Escharum is a deliberately misleading foe. He might just be the antagonist for the first half of the game.
