Sweet, I love nerf guns and pop tarts.

There's a code for each of these

That bottom needlers about £100

I hope people are figuring out now why Halo infinite is free 2 play and has limited customisation options...

While I'm at it you should buy all of these figures too.

As they also have armour colours locked behind them.

Oh these ones too

It's a bummer the skins and whatnot are locked behind purchases of all this shite.

Hopefully it just turns out to be a universal code or something.

I hope I'm getting my point across, there's plenty more products i can link with unique items attached instead of being earned ingame.

But I guess the poor developers need there money, it's not like there have been successful F2P games which haven't done this BS right? There being forced to do this as a small indie developer.

But its just cosmetic so let's chill and wash it down with a cool can of Monster.

And a pack of any of these which all come with unique codes

 

[Black_Stride]

Weapon charms are so lame. But I get that they need to monetize the game somehow. I just hope they keep this crap out of the single player.

Dont use them?
You make it seem like they force them on you.

As long as you can select "none" and the gun doesn't look like there's something missing - it's all good.

There are stupid regardless.

 

[STARSBarry]

As you can tell I am quite upset about this series of events...

 

[Black_Stride]

Youve already seen guns without charms (as Im assuming you havent equipped any) so not only do you know its possible.....you also know the guns look "normal" without them.
Stop being obtuse.

P.S There are stupid regardless (is my new favorite P.S of all time).

P.P.S Are you NOT playing the game? If you dont dont customize your weapons then they just have the default skin....if you dont equip a charm then the weapon wont have a charm.

 

[Draugoth]

Looks like I need a new Elite controller...

So cool lol, too bad i cant afford one.

Btw, changes to the Battle Pass System are coming this week it seems

 

[ManaByte]

That makes no sense as the Play 1 Game challenge has been in the game since launch.

 

[Black_Stride]

Oh it's not just weapon charms there monetising outside the game...

Im too black NOT to want this.
Damn it for being US only.
Time to make some phone calls.

love how crazy people get with Halo.

This Sandbox is gonna be insane.
Give us the toys and let us figure it out....the "meta" shouldnt be too easy to figure out.
Just hope there are more BTB maps coming soon.

 

[VN1X]

Yeah they had all the Halo Infinite Monsters last year so I guess we're SOL?

 

[STARSBarry]

That makes no sense as the Play 1 Game challenge has been in the game since launch.

As you play more matches is becomes 2 matches for 100 exp then 3 matches for 100 exp then 5 matches for 150exp etc before eventually run out and you gain 0 exp per match until daily reset.

I would of kept that but made it so you get 100 exp every match you finish and 150exp if it's a win instead there just making it flat 100exp per match essentially.

 

[Banjo64]

It’s a play 2 game challenge for me and I think why he’s saying is you’ll now get 100xp after every single game?

Playing alone in rank is so painful....only managed to get to platinum 6.

Focus on K/D forget everything else, even if you lose just make sure you have a positive K/D eventually you will rank up, ignore objectives there not worth it, treat every match like its Slayer, an enemy carrying the flag or ball is an enemy that's not shooting, so let them have it.

This not a joke the game only rates you based on your K/D.

You just reminded me, I have that Master Chief figure on my desk, and I put the code somewhere for safe keeping. So safe I have no idea where it is

that has to be the worst ranking system ever made, wtf? I more and more think noone at 343i actually plays any videogames...
their battepass is beyond shit compared to other games, the controller aiming is about a decade behind what Titanfall, CoD and Apex Legends do and now they have a ranking system that encourages to sabotage your match and just try to get a good K/D??? wtf???

 

[nemiroff]

Sadly you can't because objects without player collision are client side, so when you kill someone the place there body lands is random, so you might be bouncing up and down on them, but for everyone else including the person you killed your just stood in the open teabagging nothing like a muppet.

Ah so that's what that is.. I mean, was watching someone stream Halo Infinite yesterday and I couldn't understand why some people kept randomly teabagging the ground.

The menu sucks in this game and seems to buggy as hell too.

I'm a legit UX designer, and you know what, I agree with you.. The UI look and feel is surprisingly drab, and the user friendliness is questionable. F.ex. setting up custom games is weird as fuck.

[yamaci17]

try to turn off the chromatic aberration and bloom in the UI section

no idea why its enabled by default. what benefits does the CA and parallax and bloom have for UI elements? it just looks jittery and weird with they're on.

What’s the alternative? You have an individually brilliant game where you finish +10 but lose the game due to objectives and get ranked down? In that case people would be complaining about their shit team mates non stop.

I'm not sure this is true. I got progress in the oddball game we won, while I didn't get any in the games we lost, and I had a similar kraft dinner ratio in all of them.

 

[Starcheif]

For me getting a split screen game going was painful.

 

[Majima Everywhere System]

Excuse me! A buncha greys dropped back into my weekly challenges. I have has some real shit ones, now they are multiplying.

My cindershot one glitched to. They need to stop fucking around with my visor.

Anyone on PC having issues with the Bluetooth audio routing wrong? For some reason in the menu and in game the audio is not sent to my Bluetooth headphones

 

[SteadyEvo]

Me drinking Rockstars for codes:

Each can doesn’t have a code?

 

[Naked Lunch]

The Theater mode is completely bugged.
It plays the sounds, AI blurbs, and announcements of the entire match rather than who youre spectating. Sometimes the armor randomly changes - my character had the level 90 something helmet after a death and gone the next. And the free form camera controls do not work - you used to be able to move up and down with triggers and bumpers.

 

[DenchDeckard]

My work day is almost complete!

Quick run and then I can get back on this absolute bad boy!

Hyped!

 

[Deputy Moonman]

I'd purchase some snacks for codes if they were anything I was actually interested in eating. I don't do energy drinks, so will never buy any. If 343 had done a promotion with Dr. Pepper or Coke or something like that I'd stock up.

Smart would buy the drink for code then throw it away lol

 

[twilo99]

They added it in Halo 4 and people hated it.

It's funny how after Halo 4 and 5 people demanded 343 return to Halo's roots.

They do that.

Now people want Halo to be Call of Duty.

I see.. I think it might be because the target audience was always controller players, and maybe air control doesn't play well with controllers?

I'm used to it from Quake, its a big deal there, so that's why it feel off to me.. especially with the low gravity. I

don't think CoD has it.. unless you are referring to the drop from the airplane in warzone.

 

[twilo99]

I think they either went for basic/functional and failed, or it was rushed to get the game out..

 

[Leyasu]

Well they've gone and outdone themselves now, you don't even have to play the game to get the cosmetic. Hope that satisfies everyone.

What a load of bloody nonsense.

Quick Joe, get back to twitter and make a post about it.

I would have preferred a black visor

I have performance issues on High Power map. Fps drops to 30-45 range. Is there a way to exclude this map from playlist?

 

[clarky]

You just need a live account, no gold required.

That makes no sense as the Play 1 Game challenge has been in the game since launch.

The daily challenge just repeats complete one game for 50cp it never changes

upgrade your system

Looks like they have moved fast to fix some of the problems.

Just take your 10 matches with a friend and compare ranks based on play.



By focusing on nothing but kills you will eventually win a match with a good K/D and rank up. While you might win matches being the objective guy but you won't rank up, your team mates will.

So they actually nerfed the amount of xp you gain for just playing 4 or 5 matches a day. Why is this so difficult?

Great idea

 

[twilo99]

Yeah that's bad. Do you have a VRR display?

The game sure needs optimization on PC. I'm getting unstable 70-90fps on aquarius which would be unplayable without a VRR screen, and that's on a 6800xt, 5600x cpu, and 32gb of RAM.

I'm sticking with 1440p tho, 1080p is not an option lol

please connect your brain and read better the things before writing out dumb opinions

[Nemesis Prime]

What’s the consensus, is controller superior to MnK? I might make the switch back because I’ve always been a controller guy, but I played a few games with MnK and I liked how it felt
