Not sure what the issue is? I did already see some people in the comments asking for a mod. But it'd be client side so who cares? You'd only hear it if you want and trans people hearing "TRANS RIGHTS" every time they get a kill sounds awesome.

For real cameo issues, Pippin from LOTR just did a cameo endorsing a crypto coin he clearly knows nothing about, so THAT is much more of an issue.

Yeah some people have asked for an infinite thread, although personally I think just having this as a halo megathread works well.

It's client-side, yeah. That's the good news. I've already seen people wanting to replace the "Suicide" announce line with "TRANS RIGHTS". Though that's a really quick way to find out who you don't want to play with.

I'd be happy to put together an Infinite thread or a Halo series thread with a ton of info if y'all wanted one.

Yo sup. Is there even any other goons from the 3/reach days that even still play?

I only will have my Xbox one x for now (I'd like a series x but yeah that's gonna be a while) but as long as it can play infinite, I'll be on it!

I do except on PC now, but if this has crossplay that should be fine.


Is mouse and keyboard still funky with this game like it is in the MCC? I have to use a ps5 controller for that game but I would in theory like to play the game on M+KB instead.

Small MCC Dev Update focusing on the Weapon Model offsets system, which has undergone some improvements since it was last in a test flight - there are now different sliders for different weapon categories (except for in Halo 2 for now), and there's now an additional Horizontal slider for extra flexibility. They're aiming to put it out next season.

No campaign co-op means they should just delay the release. Its not done yet then. Don't rush things when you guys are clearly having issues.

Hm, yes, everybody hooting and hollering about how much fun the MCC campaigns are in coop definitely sent that message, this certainly isn't baseless and reflexive cynicism for the sake of cynicism.

Then why even do the campaign? If that was the case just push out the clearly more finished multiplayer and save your money.

They are putting significant resources into fixing the campaign, so that doesn't make sense as a reason to ignore co-op specifically.

Its just that they're rushing because this was supposed to come out a year ago and they don't have time.

OhFunny posted:

Its not the Xbone its 343i. There's plenty of open world games on xbone. loving GTA Online worked on the 360.

Judging by the past games, none, since they never had anything to do with the novels released between them.

It's fine to be unexcited about playing through a campaign with your siblings or friends or whatever, but your feelings aren't everybody's.

There's barely single platform coop in MCC. If it works or not seems to be up to the whims of a random number generator.

Right I forgot that Halo 4 infodumped all the exposition you needed from the two novel trilogies that built up all 343's backstory. My mistake.

I like co op just fine, I'm just not surprised that they aren't prioritizing it for launch anymore. I think it sucks a bit that these games are less feature rich at release now than they were a decade ago, but Halo's story isn't the draw that it was in those days anymore either.

The lag makes any MCC co-op impossible if you're not doing local splitscreen.
