Halo |OT| Master Chief's Breath of the Wild Moment (Part 1)

Bless him

That shithole of a sub deserves nothing

I don’t understand why 343 even bothers tbh. It’s all manufactured rage by an assortment of ā€œhalo fansā€ who either: are not really fans anymore, are PS-fans, general shitheads and those who make a living from controversy.

I think there’s a real dissonance in there. We already are playing slayer at random time, so for everybody playing, it’s there, inside the playlists. But then the message is ā€œwe are working on itā€. So for players, it feels fishy obviously. It feels like devs just have to change a few settings on the servers… But… We don’t know what all it ties into…

What I think is that devs have made decisions regarding the launch of the MP and beyond SP launch and the game is basically in cruise control right now. So it’s probably more difficult to adjust stuff on the fly than what we imagine. Devs are exhausted and taking a rest. They deserve it after that 1 year stretch.

Then you have Ske7ch who is telling it as it is and people are not taking it well, but you have to think about the position is in. Yeah there’s still work to do, but he won’t say the specifics of why it takes so much time. Of course, he can’t delve into the decision making and development cycles inside 343i. That’s not how it works.

So people should calm the fuck down and think a little.

the message is good but to be honest, they should just bring back all the slayer playlist asap. Don’t do this whole we want to keep the other playlist alive deal, because the majority of the player base doesn’t want to play the objective type and they shouldn’t be forced to.

All delaying for this so called new an improved slayer that will somehow keep people interested in the objective list, is only going to push people away from the game types. I like objective gametypes, I think that all of them are really fun, except 1 flag which I have decided to quit out of as soon as I learn it’s up, but slayer is the life blood of all fps pvp games ignoring the more popular playlist because you want to keep the others more active is only going to hurt the game in the long run.

Specially when there are other things that I think they should prioritize: anti cheat, server disconnections, PC crossplay being on by default and armor customizations limitations on players characters.

He explained pretty clearly why they don’t want to just put slayer in, it really does kill every other playlist.

He did, but not putting slayer in isn’t doing the game any favors, they want to promote the other game types, actually make more challenges associated with them, like the time I got 2 oddball objectives which where play 3 and win 3, or the other 2 I got having to do with CTF where I had to return 3 flags and kill 3 flag carriers.

I thought those where great, but I’m now back to kill 5-10 people using specific weapons/vehicle, and nothing about CTF or oddball, I think the only one I have that’s an objective base challenge is kill enemy Spartans in your zone. Like give us more objective challenges that promote killing the enemy carrier, winning the game, holding the oddball for a minute, killing people with the ball, capturing flags, returning flags. That’s the way to get people to either play those games more, not forcing them to do so because they want to protect t the other playlist.

He went over all of that, a simple ā€œput slayer inā€ solution will kill those other modes. They’re trying hard to avoid that damaging over-correction.

I assure you they do. Back in the halo 3, and reach days when they showed the amount of players searching by mode. Slayer would dwarf team objective by more than 10 to 1.that’s the problem with forcing players into modes. U can’t be mad at people for not playing the objective when they arnt given the option to search slayer.

Also playing ranked slayer is the best option when you don’t have a party of 4 which I rarely communication is so key in objective.

Also don’t be mad at players quiting out of games when they can’t pick the mode or can’t pick what their challenges are.

I’m sorry but the last thing I want read is challenges being a contributing factor in why we don’t have slayer only modes.

Also if team slayer kills off objective playlists health than so what. It would only happen because that’s what the majority of the player base wants. If they fear that, than they know that’s what the majority wants.

Is there a reason why mods or redditors out there STILL not bothering to this day to create r/haloinfinite or even r/infinitemp?.

good the toxicity was batshit crazy i get being upset at the issues but this much virtol and harrassment is unacceptable

Sometimes, I feel like I have to wear a glasses with fake nose and mustache to get around this.

lol people are delusional if they think MS made 343 go f2p and designed their battle pass system.

Also hilarious, sketch had addressed EVERY issue regarding the MP on Reddit or Twitter, yet they kept making the same threads over and over again.

Wow what a total cesspool of toxic people r/halo has become wtf has happen to Halo Players they are more toxic then even COD & BF and even Destiny players it sad

Oh man it’s bad really bad

Please forgive my ignorance with this question: How bad would matchmaking be if they did make a slayer playlist and an objective playlist (or a playlist with each objective)? Would you have 1/10th the players for BTB objective?

I feel like objective modes in BTB are being made less fun with people who are not interested in playing the various game types. If there was a BTB objective mode that was dedicated, then everyone playing is playing in good faith. It would be more enjoyable. It’s a bit ironic.

And at the same time, would it be bad to let the market speak? If most play this game to play Slayer then it just speaks to these other modes being unattractive to most Halo gamers.
