Do some recruitment and give it to i.d tech.Microsoft needs to seriously consider giving Halo to another team. How many more chances can they continue to give 343i?

Halo Infinite developer concedes ‘the community is out of patience’ | VGC

Seems like 343 really fumbled the big momentum they had late last year with this game. It was received very well and had a huge player base that seems to have dwindled to nothing.
I think the truth is that the game just came in way too hot and what they got out in time was the best it was gonna be for awhile. I do wonder if season 2 can regain some of the momentum whenever it launches
None of this shit ever even enters my periphery, I just spin it up and have a couple of games every now and then, it’s a really solid, well balanced game imo.
Is it only fun to the passing observer or something?
Halo Infinite - Steam Charts
An ongoing analysis of Steam's player numbers, seeing what's been played the most.steamcharts.com
The PC shooter competition is to strong.
On console it probably looks better and they can somehow recover if they smash it
GoTY yet people only ever discuss it on here to express disappointment and frustration. Kinda seems like people were voting based on what plastic they worship.Take your time to fix Gaf's GoTY 2021, kings.
I stopped playing after finishing the campaign, but I was shocked to see how quickly it has slipped down the most played charts.Holy shit down to 27
Once they decided that they were ok releasing this as an *official* screenshot... All hope of them having any quality standards went out of the window for me.

graphics whore detected.
this is the least of the game's problems. the presentation can be 360 quality for all I care, but the core game systems are so fucked that the game is barely salvageable
its both. I have the game, it doesnt look as bad as the screenshot - But the fact that they released that screenshot as a way to get people excited is a joke. They have no clue what quality is... And the more I play the game (and see how they are handling the post launch) just proves me right. Shame. I literally bought a Series X for this gameThis is an art design problem more than a graphics problem

I remember when Xbox was the system to get for online multiplayer, now Gears is effectively dead and Halo Infinite is dying just a few months after its release. Will be interesting to see what MS does with Call of Duty.
Whatchu mean? Gaf has proven to have impeccable tastes!GoTY yet people only ever discuss it on here to express disappointment and frustration. Kinda seems like people were voting based on what plastic they worship.
When you're trolling but you're accidentally right. Microsoft has the masters of FPS with id SoftwareScrap 343i. Microsoft now has the dynamic duo of FPS epitome, Infinite Ward and Treyarch. Two development studios who are a master class in FPS design, implementation, and execution. Their portfolio is both diverse and inclusive. Year after year, Call of Duty has remained a household name for gamer's of all ages. The time to act is now, a petition to let Infinite Ward or Treyarch take over Halo.
Yeah that is probably the right move. I don't want Halo to play like CoD, but I'm sure a CoD studio could make a game that felt like Halo instead of CoD.Scrap 343i.

As a big halo fan, I agree, either of these studios would make an excellent Halo title than 343i, I was involved in competing in Halo Infinite but most of the pros have even quit the game, no new maps in ages, no real new content, every weekly reward is basically a JPEG and no real fixes to any of the issues.Yeah that is probably the right move.

Nah, not going to read this. You're clearly going through something.the core gameplay is not fantastic. there arw so many issues, it's impossible to fix this game.
also winning GOTY has never been less meaningful, which this game clearly shows, this game is pure garbage in many ways, and the campaign is OK at best.
in order for this game to ACTUALLY get good it needs basically completely new MP maps, as in at least 10 new ones that are more varied and less generic as the current ones.
it needs about 20 modes that are currently missing
it needs a fully functional theatre mode, custom games, a custom game browser, a functional file share system, a functional custom game creator, a completely new netcode, a complete change to how social game modes work (aka taking out that stupid random weapon and vehicle spawn shit), COMPLETELY OVERHAULED CONTROLLER AIMING, a massive reduction in aim assist (which it currently still needs due to the terrible aiming on controller), a completely new progression system, a completely revamped customisation system, a toggle to turn off crossplay due to the inability of the devs to fight cheaters, the complete removal of the challenge system...
I can't think of more things from the top of my head but that should be enough.
the thing is, this game is flawed to the core, literally, as in their menu system and game systems are so badly made that they can't change tiny things without it taking months due to how shit their UI systems are.
I lost all hope for Halo at this point, and I bet this game will never be actually a complete Halo experience, it will never reach the levels of Reach in terms of features, variety and polish... there is just no way it will due to how systemically flawed the whole game is
the only way this game is salvageable is if they pulled a Final Fantasy XIV and just rebooted the game and basically remake a huge junk of it from scratch
I do both. Not sure what you're on about. You don't even play Halo but you know who speaks for it? gtfoUnlike you the community actually cares and plays this game.
Nah, not going to read this. You're clearly going through something.
Very few would argue that the core gameplay is not fantastic. Because it is. And you saying goty is meaningless further shows shows your bias.
"Fact based"you show your bias by not reading my mostly facts based assertion of the game.
it is garbage.
the core gameplay is serviceable at best, and bocked down by some of the worst systems ever seen in a AAA shooter. the netcode alone, which would need to be completely replaced at this point, makes the game trash
