Yeah, they're looking kinda bland for the most part… though the BTB one is nice at least. Hopefully there's a good variety at launch.Wow, that looked WAY better than the little bit they showed yesterday. This is going to be amazing!
My only lingering worry is the maps. It's the one area I feel 343 have repeatedly fallen short multiplayer wise.
I think the words "everyone starts every match on an even playing field" is exactly what I'm looking to hear.
No loadouts / etc.
They literally just said it's earned through gameplay.
The level of customisation and no lockout battle passes is very impressive. I will definitely be checking this out if it's on Steam.
I don't love load out/item drops. It adds a bit too much "randomness," especially when they just said "fair and even" is critical.
What happens when it lands closer to an enemy team? That stuff drives me nuts.
Does it? This is not new in Halo.Battle Passes not running out and have no time restriction and you can buy old Passes retroactively?
This news alone deserves its own thread.
It does, yes.
I get that it's 2021 and that people are all into _player_ customization, but I was really curious about _game_ customization. Hoping we hear more about that sooner rather than later.
My understanding was that these were essentially weapon/vehicle respawn animations. Instead of magically reappearing, they now drop from the sky, but it's still the same as always in terms of placement/timers? Could be completely off though.
Just ask op to put in a report to update thread title.
Correct, but it's huge in this case since these are more traditional Battle Passes that you have buy.
No, but they will do a deep dive later this week I think.
Clamber is in.
This is something I 100% agree with. Especially with a few insiders likening it to Battlefield which made me believe it would be close to 64 players per match. I don't like it just being 24 but we'll see how it plays I guess.I was hoping for something a little better than 12v12 BTB mode. Maybe "better" is the wrong word, bigger maybe?
Halo Infinite on Steam
From one of gaming's most iconic sagas, Halo is bigger than ever. Featuring an expansive open-world campaign and a dynamic free to play multiplayer experience.store.steampowered.com

It's a free to play game, what did you think was going to happen? Seems like you can work on the seasons whenever you want. If you finish all of season one but life prevents you from finishing season 2, you can finish it during season 3So every season I have to buy a new Battlepass to unlock the stuff for that particular season?
