it's free to play, that's literally the only answer that you will get
these threads exist to shti on live service games, which is fine because they suck
but dont act like Halo Reach having 75% of its maps taken from campaign is any better

This

People forget a lot that Reach just recycle the MP maps and yet it's "thi bezt halu"

What took them so long? I'd understand it if the game released with a ton of content, but it didn't.

More like they made the mp maps and plugged them into the campaign levels.
They all felt so out of place.

why is that bad exactly? makes the multiplayer feel more properly tacked on to the game instead of just some weird nether space where you fight other guys because uhhhhh training or something??

I agree for maps like Powerhouse and Reflection, but there are definitely some like the Spire that worked well in campaign as well.
Reach was, ultimately, lazier than anything 343 has done so far.

yeah dude, please tell me how Halo 2 and 3 maps were bad because they were just random places lmao
I bet you hate 'The Pit' because it's a training place too...

I would say people placed under that shitty contract thing
6 months don't allow anyone tonlearn the code
By the time you get familiar with it you need to fuck off and they bring another programer and so on

And the engine must be shit like, if they didnt add colision is cuz it may fuck the game

no lol
halo 3 has the best maps hands down
i just wouldn't say reach had bad maps because they were heckin campaign levels

As much as people would rather shit on 343 for the multiplayer dying quickly, unfortunately covid had a big fucking hit on the industry and delayed most things being developed by 6-12 months. The fact that the maps are gonna be coming out free is at least some solace. I just want that cool fucking 'Lone Wolves' battle pass content.

i think it's lazy when they practically change nothing on the levels - and also most of the maps sucked huge cock from Reach anyway - they built Halo 3 esque maps but had retarded armour abilities that just ruined the flow

I'm just surprised they didn't have any remastered classic maps to pad it out, you'd think that would be a pretty easy win if they were that crunched for time

agreed - but I assume they'll do that bullshit where each season after Lone Wolves will be themed and then they'll bring maps with it - like a Halo 3 themed season with Guardian and the Pit or something

This. 343 may have been working on Halo Infinite for 6 years, but in reality we were probably only working on it for around 5 and a half! Give them a break!

Literally no one ever thought Halo 3 was shit you retard, I was actually there

Yeah I think they were honestly caught a bit off guard by how hyperbolic the criticism has been the past couple of months, like personally desync has barely been an issue for me but suddenly the game is unplayable for every other person in youtube comments or r/halo. Other things though, like 100% challenge-based progression, are absolutely bonkers and I have no clue how they even got out of the planning stages, let alone made it to launch.

You kidding? You were either young or just not paying attention. Halo 3 got a ton of shit for going "projectile". Also all the hate it got for having multiple map packs.

people thought Halo 3's story was dissappointing at the time, retard
only hardcore fanboys couldnt criticize it

they didnt start actual production of the game until late 2017/early 2018 retard
do you have 0 idea how game development works?

At least Reach had fucking Forge and all of its game modes there, DAY ONE.

who cares about the story?

Aggressively disingenuous and untrue.

You trusted 343.

it's true for 4, 5, and infinite

because it was a $60 game
and the multiplayer was shit
and the campaign was so generic and fucking boring
Halo Infinites multiplayer is free, so why would I give a shit about it having all that content day one?

soulless, embrace Bungie
