343 Industries rewarded players who reached the max rank in Halo 5: Guardians with a special batch of skins for Halo Infinite. Fast forward a few months later, and skins that are nearly identical to the rank 152 reward skins are now being given away for free, upsetting some longtime fans.
Details regarding the 10-year content plan for Xbox Game Studios and 343 Industries' Halo Infinite have allegedly been revealed.
"The story would have been expanded through yearly campaign DLC, so players would not have to wait for another mainline Halo title." ~ this seldom works
But I still think, they should've tried 1 last Halo sequel based on that slipspace engine, that they invested so much on but made for current gen only, before going all in on UE5.
The biggest voices of Xbox’s Halo franchise have been told nothing about the multiple new games in development.
Call me a cynic. But it seems that not even the people working in the studio know what’s the status of Halo.
They were going to add a BR mode, which then got cancelled, but now it’s a sequel to infinite, but may be a reboot of the first game?
It may be normal for development to be like this as super Mario galaxy started as cut content from Mario 128, which then became a tech demo, which became pikmin, which eventually became Mario galaxy.
But 343 or whatever they are called now-certainly don’t have a good track record so it makes me wonder what’s happening.
I'd be much more comfortable with the future of Halo if "343" or whatever they call themselves now were no longer in charge of the series.
Halo Infinite now has a functional bowling alley thanks to this amazing Forge map available for free on Xbox and PC.
WTF!!!? Can we add Tic-Tac-Toe, maybe Connect 4? How bout the card game Go Fish? Microsoft should shelve the Halo Franchise for 10 to 20yrs or sell it clearly they have no new ideas to take Halo forward and putting a "Hey gamer finish the game for us" mode and we can make more money off it and we can fire some more game Developers that we really don't even care about.......Microsoft is done even trying to make Halo a game worthy of even a little bit of our time.
Would it even matter if they were exact copies? I don't see why this is newsworthy.
“Fast forward a few months later, and skins that are nearly identical to the rank 152 reward skins are now being given away for free, upsetting some longtime fans.“
So they took something that required 152 ranks to earn and give it away for free now instead of making new skins? Sounds just like something 343i would do.
Gasp…..
Meanwhile Russia is about to invade Ukraine, but uhhh I guess this is important news too…
Only gamers could complain about free stuff given to them for gaming.
I hardly think any of those halo5 players were suffering… putting in long hard hours into a game they willingly purchased and chose to play, and then rewarded free stuff for doing what they wanted to do in the first place. The entitlement is real. Those rank skins aren’t gonna drop any panties at the clubs just fyi lmao.
Sure they look similar. Wouldnt they be more upset that the skins they got are completely boring? These all look super low effort.
I don't like halo but today's gamers are puss*ies. This new woke generation moan about everything.
Ever heard of just playing the games ffs, it's like you lot look for the negatives before even waking up in the morning.
