"Can we HALO fans not be skeptical about 343 Industries’ development of HALO 4? Since 343i is working exclusively on HALO 4 without help from Certain Affinity or Saber Interactive, can this untested developer bring the award-winning quality gameplay, storytelling, and multiplayer as benchmarked by Bungie Studios?" - Author
Halo Infinite developer 343 Industries has moved to explain a recent microtransactions price hike following a community backlash.
so they made several changes how the helmets etc work, however, ive never seen anyone raising prices in a shop due to changes THEY made.
There is absolutely no reason for ever raising the price of cosmetics. They are some of the quickest assets to create but charge silly prices for them. Its greed. There's no other way to spin it no matter what the game is.
343 Industries will continue to work on the Halo series going forwards, but other studios may get involved in development, it’s been suggested
man what a failure halo wars 2 was the only good thing from this series on xbox one/series
10yr plan new ring that can change over time slipspace engine all gone now halo is another steam game sitting in the background.
Kids/teens today have no clue they halo we grew up with.
If a cod dev gets involved then that will be worse current cod out now is only popular because its the best out of the crap pile. i launched it the other day 4 cash shop popups one unskipable add then 30min trying to find the game through all the mt's.
It's good to see that 343 cannot handle the task and are looking to do something. But how many years have gone by where there has not only been nothing to show, but issues. Microsoft is the issue here. And as of just 1mth ago with Refall, it has been proven again. Guess what,,, Phil S is NOT a developer and not does he have any legs to say a damn word about development. Wake up people.
crazy how indifferent ms is about one of the biggest franchises in gaming. it looks pretty bad when you don't even have a clear plan for your flagship title. ms just has no idea how to make good games anymore.
Gamers have a bone to pick with 343 Industries, with Halo Infinite's hit registration in online matches remaining completely broken.
Hit registration broken is one thing. The kill sound, or some people call it a "hit noise" annoying ass bird chirp is what broke the deal for me. They could at least provide an option to turn that squirrel fart noise off in the settings. But no, every single solitary headshot kill *SQUEAK*, *CHIRP*, *BEEP*
Not having any issues with Dsycn.
This is a connection problem...and the video in question was posted 300 days ago.
Why report on it now?
Gamerant is another one of those BuzzFeed like so called video game publications that hire freelances to create articles in mass without any credible source.
I'm glad buzz feed got shut down because of their slizzle method, can't wait for these types of website to run out of money.
i find it so weird, that one of the best selling xbox franchises, got this disaster of a game, even the first trailer they showed was nothing more than a complete fail
Well, look at what Slant Six did with Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City.
Look at what Ninja Theory is doing to Devel May Cry.
Look at what Ruffian Games did to Crackdown 2.
Not to mention that Halo 4 will release with the proven unstoppable juggernaut called COD. I'm skeptical.
I think it will be just fine. They have a lot of the original developers plus developers from some of the best games out there. I don't see any reason to worry.
Well considering the large and great team they have at 343i, I'm more than convinced that Halo 4 will be great.
I think Microsoft did the smart thing and made Bungie do Halo Reach, that way 343 can do the continuation with Master Chief, I liked Halo Reach, but its almost New Coke versus Old Coke when it comes to Reach and a Master Chief version of Halo.
Considering there is finally a release date, I'd expect to see the pre-orders sky rocket, and the pre-orders for North America were already around 300k.
Releasing against Call Of Duty isn't really an issue for a franchise as large as Halo, it would be if it were a smaller one like Killzone or something like that.
Halo fans are rabid and want Master Chief back. Plus, so far with what I've seen, the games looks better than ever and its actually evolving a bit instead of the same old, same old.
I am not worried one butting about 343. Some games need fresh new people working on them with fresh new ideas. Halo is a game that deserves a new approach.
