You can set that up in custom games if there isn't already someone doing that with forge stuff

Even after playing another shield-shooter in Destiny, Halo's longer TTK is an adjustment :lolbron: You can't just half-ass get the drop on somebody and expect to win the encounter just because you saw them first. You gotta really pick your spots and play more as a team to get those quicker kills. Halo probably has one of the longest TTK out of all the FPS out there
Yep that shyt irritate me. That's why I only play tactical, one shot in the dome and it's the Vince Carter gif :ahh:

Season 5 has been the meaty update players have been salivating for. :dame:

On the real, this is GOOD to see. Pierre is honestly a gem and deserves to oversee more studios simply for the vision of wanting a good game. His handling of Halo has been correct. It is just a shame he has been playing cleanup to other execs fukking up the franchise. Imagine if the game launched like this and not that yearly seasonal, anemic, "just buy skins bro" stupidity. :mjcry:

As someone who played multiple alphas and betas and binged the game at launch, Infinite has definitely had its struggles as a live service game. First couple seasons lasted like 6 months each and had barely any content

Now they amount of matchmaking playlists has gone from 4 to 18, they’ve doubled up on maps and just added two new ones, forge provides even more endless content and they’ve improved the battle pass and overall progression system. I just got back into this earlier this week and I been very impressed and having a lot of fun playing again


They put the breh Pierre in charge and he righted the ship for them AGAIN :salute:

They need to put this series to bed. It had its time and the world moved on. Them forcing more of these games just makes the series legacy look worse.

I think that’s the point of this game. Will probably get updates for the next 10 years.

The franchises focus is the tv show.

Great game just lacked content I hope it can turn around a sa service game. I'm of mind they should keep ot running for 10 years and just release single player halos.

higher player count=more engagement with the game=fast matchmaking lobbies=more variety of players in matchmaking(instead of just the hardcore sweats, a nice balance of serious, casual, and new player)=more custom games popping=more community creations(maps, game modes, etc).

cant believe this had to be explained. do you play video games online? perhaps you one of them single player only dudes(nothing wrong with that by the way :smile: )
