Spoiler Halo Mega Thread

“jUsT lEaD yOuR sHoTs! :^)“

Literally the most cancerous comment ever made repeatedly in the Optimatch Playlist.

That's kindergarten to what they say on r/Halo

Getting BTB Heavies on Sandtrap, Avalanche and Valhalla in a row is pretty amazing though

ive been playing nothing but ce btb

Not safe for life

CTF on Ice Fields is the most fun mp in any Halo

yall seen the new infinite box art

Oof, mixed emotions from that 8 minute demo.
Maybe I just got spoiled with how amazing the Doom demos were.

You still can't shoot while sprinting.
The game looks like first person Mass Effect

Also, auto carbine and DMR? Did anyone else REE?

Looks fine.

Only really interesting thing is being able to toss plasma coils.

If the story is just "Shoot Bad Monkey" I'm going to be very disappointed.

Halo announcements really about to meke me put my car mods on hold for vidya games, huh.

why does halo infinite look like it was built in forge world

All memes aside that trailer is super mixed for me. Gunplay looks okay and not too copy/pasta from all the new age generic crap. It at least seems to harkon back to older halo's gameplay design of "always on the move." Model design seems okayish, but there's something really off about the lighting for me. Everything seems very flat, like there's not really a depth to the lighting, it's all just being rendered in white light with no shadow depth.

You can already do that in Halo 3 since every map is cluttered with fusion coils

Rewatching the trailers again this morning I'm feeling more positive about it. The gunplay looks really fun and the villain is something new for Halo. The demo is confirmed to come from an earlier build so graphical issues should be fixed by launch.

Really it just looks like a Halo game. I think a lot of people are being melodramatic, just like with 5, 4, Reach, 3, 2...

Still not blown away but it's a shooter. Shooters have been a stagnant genre for about 10 years now. Not much you can do with it that hasn't been done before.

Fine with it being open world but my main concern is that the game will just be hilly forests. It'll need some variety if it wants people to keep playing it.

I don't know why people think that it's passable. Anything less than greatness is not Halo.

I like that they are adding things and not really trend-chasing. Though you could argue that open-world is a trend. Still, they are trying to keep the franchise fresh.
Apparently its non-linear for the most part, so its like GTA but on a Halo ring.
That pop-in on the elevator was a big OOF.

I remember the playable E3 demo of Halo 4 that they put out was a much older build than the one our team was working on. So there is hope that we were shown a stable but older build here too.

Sad they you still can't shoot while sprinting but at least you can shoot right out of sprint.

If brutes can smile in the final version, I will buy four copies of the special edition of Infinite.

Never underestimate a passionate community's ability to dole out life support. Skyrim's a single player game and yet the modding community constantly refreshes it. Team Fortress 2 came out in god damn 2007 and it's still alive, to name a few cases. This very site stemmed from Halo, so it's pretty reasonable to assume there's going to be supporters for it.

the brute/banished weapons look a lot sleeker than their tech did in Halo 3 and Wars 2.

That's what felt a bit off to me. I'm used to brute tech being...brutish.

I did not see anything new.

eh, the grappling hook is just copying off of doom eternal/titanfall 2 to me, and I can't really say I saw anything that seemed trend setting.

tbh a lot seems taken from Titanfall. Grapple/ Sliding, the new rifle looks like a poor man's R101 Carbine and the new pistol looks like the Hammond P2016. Even the insistence on hexagon rocks is something Titanfall did back in 2016.

at least the hexagon rocks in Halo 4 kinda made sense, it seemed based on a real life location in Iceland. At least there it looked believable, but in the Halo Infinite trailer it just looks like a lazy cop out to avoid cliff faces. Just bothers me.

btw how's OPTRE doing?
