Fortnite looks like a completely different game each year, with wild changes every few months, sometimes even mere weeks. Overall cheap prices with rare exceptions (like cars); valuable cosmetics and top priority from devs to its "forge" mode. It is an unstoppable money making machine. That's how you do literal billions: cheap prices, constant updates. Done. Fortnite will never fuckn die I swear. Meanwhile 343 here doing the greedy unprotected from snipers, trying to loot like there's no tomorrow, about to get sent back to the lobby for being so unbelievable dumb.

Additionally. Buying skins in fortnite is a whole different ordeal compared to infinite armor. Halo has long been about mixing and matching armor pieces to get the look you want. Experimentation is highly encouraged with the system. So most players don’t have a “forever spartan” design, they usually change up their look every now and then. Meanwhile, fortnite doesn’t have that customizatability with their skins. But their skins are very high quality so people usually DO have a forever skin or select few skins they really like. The only time most fortnite players mix and match their skins is with new battle pass items which mind you the battle passes contain tons of items for customization. So Fortnite’s show feels much less predatory in terms of prices because you don’t feel the need to buy every item in the shop. Meanwhile, infinite’s bundles almost all contain at least 1 thing players want in them which makes it feel like you need to buy every bundle which is an awful feeling.

I'd hope the next game keeps the hexagonal wheel system for coloring different armor parts, but shifts to each piece being a choice from a colour menu. Basic menu options free, premium menu options for sale INDIVIDUALLY for a few bucks. That way coatings people liked from Infinite would have an equivalent (and the studio could even do a 'choose a few of your Infinite coatings to keep' starter promo), but if you're making your own choices and go symmetrical (which could easily have a sym/asym UI toggle), it collapses down to primary / secondary / tertiary / undersuit anyway, like a lot of people preferred from the older entries.

Dear 343, I have been a fan of halo since Halo Reach’s release in 2010, I have played and completed all halo games. I have been playing Infinte since it’s beta where I was in the flights. This is my feedback for you on what to add in order to make everyone happy. •Cross core knees, wrists, Boots (with ankles), utilities and chests are all we need now for full cross core. I can only really find 1-2 coatings that allow me to have a nice military coloured primary with a white secondary •Adding HR-H5 vehicles and HR-H5 weapons to sandbox •Better armour coatings that actually fit with halo lore •The rest of the missing HR customisation, Operator, Military Police, etc… •Enable players to purchase S1-S4 vaulted content from the store •Allow players to play as elites in a sub gametype of firefight just like on reach (not necessary but it would be extremely well received) •More interesting emblems like the ONI emblem, ODST emblem, Marine Emblem, Navy Emblem, Air Force Emblem, UNSC Emblem, SIII Alpha Company Emblem, SIII Gamma Company Emblem, etc… •Ranked: Support players who play objectives and support their team by winning objectives shouldn’t be punished even when winning for not having a high KD. A Gold 3 will be placed against a Diamond 3-4 in certain games My friend was very excited to play halo Infinte with me and so he installed the game only to end up uninstalling it from his pc due to how controlled what he could and couldn’t do was which is a massive shame. How to fix coatings: •Make all coatings purchasable at all times from the store unless they’re a weekly reward, you could quite honestly have colour palette packs in the store like how WARFRAME does which would give players incredible amounts of choice for their armour colour customisation with just an primary and secondary option to change in a palette.

I commented this on another video, but I feel the weekly rewards should be at most 500 credits instead of the crappy emblems and charms no ones going to use. I know they're doing the tv show helmets now but those can easily be put for free in the shop much like the hcs winter coating at launch. This way, 343 can kinda justify their large prices because we have a free alternative for credits, and if you're short a couple then people would be more willing to spend 5 or 10 dollars for the extra credits to get the armor they want.. I know there are plans to add a sort of exchange shop to get past weekly rewards, but I'm sure there is another way to implement getting the points rather than using the weekly rewards.

We need to get 343 to add the missing Mark 4 shoulder in the next update.

343 just need to incorporate armor through the progression system. Having players unlock armor through gameplay is something every halo game should have. But also having hard challenges you need to complete to get cool armor. Such as “ninja players 4 times in a matchmaking game”. Something that makes it seem like you earned that armor. However in terms of the shop 343 just need to lower the prices, none of this “ohhh a lot of stuff is cross core now sooo it worth more!!”. No that’s not how it should be, it’s so scammy to do that to your playerbase. But also allowing players to buy individual items from a bundle would also be a huge improvement. If 343 did these two things with the shop, then almost all the problems players have would go away. Pls 343 you were on a win streak and now you do this 😭

Hey! Love your content as always! I was hoping we could maybe get a video of some of your recent clips, as you havent done one of those in a little bit! I love watching your playstyle and it has helped me get a ton better. it's so cool to show some of my friends and family who i get to try out the game just how good some people can get. Also, a video of advanced tips, playstyles, and movement would be so cool. Maybe even get to map specific strats. To get advice from the top halo players is always a treat.

@MintBlitz Yess thank you so much!! Thanks for caring about the community and keeping it alive!

I think Infinite needs one big content update that can make the entire game feel fresh again My ideal update would be as followed: - 1 New Weapon : Bruteshot (power weapon) - 2 New Vehicles: Falcon and Banished Skiff - 3 New maps (one of them being Blood Gulch) - 2 new gamemodes: Classic FF and Grifball - 2 new forge items: Pelican and Phantom with working seats for Ais - A new 50 tier battlepass with the Mark VI armor core - 1 new Ai (personally want a Sergeant Johnson Ai screaming down my ear) Finally I’d like to see an update to Campaign, not a story expansion, instead all the new weapons and gadgets introduced in multiplayer moving over with maybe short sidequests to acquire the gadgets This is a lot for 343 standards but if they dropped something similar to this you’d wouldn’t get much complainants for a while, allowing them to put more attention on their next project and drop the occasional small updates for Infinite afterwards

I feel like if they made a separate section for head and body armor effects that would help too. Like i want to mix and match helmet/armor effect for example having a flood mohawk while also wearing the flood body effect as well.

I'd like to see a little more menu customization. I never want the main menu and loading screen of Zeta Halo to change. 343 should take a page from MCC and Fortnite, and let us customize our menu screens. Even in the Armor Hall, I'd like to see some customization. I absolutely despise the fracture cores, and I want nothing to do with them. Mark IV, Mark V [B], and Mark VII are all I care about. I'd like to have the three of them together in the armor core. Being able to have our cores in any order we want would be really nice.

I really liked the 1000 credits you get back in the battle pass now it just sucks you don't earn credits anymore

I've said it before, but with all of this that we have to pay for then 343 should transfer all of our stuff to the next game.

Fuck that, it would mean they would do the whole coating thing again

@hiroshiarturolopezsashida6071 possibly, but it can always be an addition. Have coatings and colors you can pick.

If halo is going the store route, make it similar to halo reach. Then as player sink hours and earn credits then the store can have an actual purpose. Sure have a currency buy section for those that may want to get to items quicker but make it an environment worth investing time in. Get kickbacks from popular modes made on forge if a lot of people play/share/save it. Build around what’s available

One thing I hope they fix is the armor pieces that are sold in bundles gets two sets of shoulders if that bundle has 2 different shoulder pieces. Some of the bundles right now, like in the Omega team set, has 2 different pieces on each shoulder, but you don't get two sets to give it a more symetrical look. Like the IMA/BARZITAN piece looks awesome, but its only available on the left side, so its a tiny bit frustrating

You forgot about the cross core chest attachments, that’ll be way more important then knees or gloves

Crosscore EVERYTHING, Helmet attachments torso attachments knees fists forearm attachments thigh attachments all of it!

YOOO that’s me at 0:56 🤣🔥 We actually played together last night! Squad battle on waterworks!

Just gonna say this here for some ideas that could help infinite 1. Challenges give credits and xp 2. Personal score/10 = extra credits at end of match 3. Personal care rank gives a credit multiplier i.e. bronze gives x1, silver gives x2, and gold gives x3

Option 4: 1000 points in a match per 1 credits

I really want a 3rd person shooter that plays like hell divers 2 but have multiple factions. Theme it as Halo Wars

The only reason I actually bought the battlepasses was because of the 1000 credit cashback. I still haven’t finished season 2’s battlepass so I’m just gonna get that rather than any store bundles

I just noticed one of the reach poses has an AR in the picture but a commando when equipped we need a way to change the weapon in poses

Okay, here I go for the hundredth time... Increase in Sandbox (personally an SMG drop UNSC SMG, Plasma Rifle, Spiker & whatever vehicles). Bring back the Battle Pass or Lower the prices & let us buy individual items. Along with maybe increasing Operations to 30 tiers & actually fill it with worthwhile items (LESS EMBLEMS & WEAPON CHARMS & XP BOOSTS & COATINGS OF SIMILAR COLORS WE ALREADY HAVE!) Maps! Especially more open BTB maps & just Squad Battle Maps (I know more are on the way but it's all from the community. Not that that's bad but what have 343 been doing over there? Just one dev made map that's all gray AGAIN & only for arena?) Earnable credits through playing. Halo is life. I love other games but Halo is home, even if we move homes & I'm not happy about the new place but eventually we make it suit how things were somewhat. Wort Wort Wort! SBMM to actually be addressed & then fixed! Why is this a hush-hush topic at 343? Forge for Dummies, please & thank-you! Used to do forge but now it makes me wanna bash my head against the wall. I want a simplified version & when I'm ready, I can flip a switch & get into the more detailed aspects. Other s**t. I know 343 is looking & even working on the next Halo project but don't play us dirty like this. Since Halo Infinite has launched it has been a very inconsistent relationship, very love/hate. You earn our admiration & then go & pull the rug out from underneath us. Ugh! The next Halo project better be Halo 3 x10 or the whole community will rip 343 apart & we'll be back into another 10 years of meh Halo. I don't want that! Infinite was a foot in the right direction, even if that foot is a bit bloody & bruised. Alright, I'm sure there's more but I'm getting tired of posting the same thing over & over in hopes it'll somehow reach the people it needs to. Cheers!

Remember when we asked for credits as challenge rewards and then 343 gave them in the battle pass as a compromise? now the battlepass is gone lol

New update has had way more bandit blanks than season 5. I'm constantly having to 5 shot to get shields down, and 3 shot plus beat down is now inconsistent. This CU felt like a step back from the direction of previous seasons.

If they do end up rewarding players for time spent for credits... I think it it would ALSO be wise at same time to give the players that rank 1-100 world wide in certain skills extra credits too. Example: mint Blitz sits in multiple top Playlist he gets the better rewards. Outta the top 100 since he's in first place say for kills(not sure if you're atm ) Say since I'm rank 50 in driver assist then I could get credits also but not as much as the players that place 1,2 or 3. This would definitely motivate many to put the grind in the long run and would promote more hours spent and give ppl more objectives or goals that inspire them to grind halo more

They should a daily login giving you an amount of currency. That way as long as you log in every day, you keep getting more. Call of Duty Infinite Warfare did this system back during it's lifecycle and it worked well imo. Also, they not only need to put more rewards back into the game and the passes, but Really lower the prices of the items in the shop. Yes, it's a free to play game but part of me feels even making it "free to play" is the biggest issue as to why the shop is getting more and more expansive.

I love how reasonable your views are Mint! Balance indeed. I understand that the shop is required to keep the company afloat. I’ve been supporting 343 in past seasons by purchasing the pass and the occasional bundle - but this update was just insulting, a massive swing in the wrong direction. It made me commit to boycott the shop, regardless of how good the armour pieces look. Good luck 343. The player base looks pretty pissed to me.

Thanks for putting me in your video Remy, was a nice surprise 😂 1:23

I’m finally getting the update today

Honestly in a perfect world 343 would get rid letting the game be a free download for multiple like every other halo game that way the shop isn't their main source of revenue

They need to add some sort of customisation that you can unlock from the campaign like xp for battle passes maybe? Maybe not but just something a little bit more, im not looking forward to having to buy a couple of the seperate events to get certain things from battle passes even though im still missing out on things that just won’t be released anymore anyway or the things that are vaulted I guess, even the same with store items there’s such a limited choice and most of it right now isn’t the most appealing in my own personal opinion though! I would’ve really liked the CE armour set

honestly going with your idea of allowing us to earn tiny amounts of spartan points, maybe have to where if you finish 1 weekly challenge you get 50 spartan points, but then thats also all you would get for that week

Totally agree with your last couple points. Game was just starting to build up steam and good will and they totally wrecked that momentum. The prices are absolutely absurb. I’d buy some of these items in the $1-$5 range, but there’s no way I’m spending $20 on the Mark V. Frankly, mark V should be one of those included in the game since it’s a legacy design.

Firefight Heavies should have been the SOF event

They probably don't want to make grinding career rank on firefight *too* easy. The odd games where you get bandana on from the start by RNG and grab a hammer or a rocket early can be very lucrative on XP. A pistolfight mode with unlimited ammo the upgraded sidekick would be sweet though.

Make the ultimate weekly challenge 100sc rather than something most people wont engage with. That way if you consistently engage with the game you can purchase the next premium operation, or you could save it up for something you actually care about.

I think they should do weapon pack,vehicle pack and equipment pack to keep players invested and probably do some story expansions so 343 have their revenue from the game and everyone will be happy.

We need the ability to buy items individually or as a bundle for all armor bundles if I need to I'll work out the kinks for it and make a video explaining why it would be one of the best updates that halo infinite could ever have

3:55 I didn't see your last video, but count me among them. I expected the Omega Team bundle to be around 2400 or whatever the Pilot & Skymarcher bundle was. 3800 is a big ask. And the Stanchion model itself is all I want from that bundle, no way I'm paying ~$18 for (functionally) ONE THING.

I hope they'll get kneepad and glove crosscore on the next update. As much as I want chest crosscore, I don't think the assets are compatible with cores they were not made for. Parts would either clip into the base core or hover over them. Hip accessories possibly have the same issue. In regards to pricing, it has always been expensive. $5 cat ears was too much in season 1. The current price is ridiculous. Maybe give discount base on rank/experience to encourage people to play more? The better a player is, the steeper the discount they'll get?

We absolutely need more weapons/vehicles in Infinite. I personally would love to see more maps also, specifically for BTB (I heard they're adding more in the future, but don't know when). As far as the macrotransactions go, just lower the prices, bring back season passes (even if they don't give as much/any credits back) and have at least a small amount of credits earnable. I really do think those shop and pass issues would be less annoying if we had some more content. 1 new map isn't enough (even worse for me since I only really play BTB, firefight, and recently ranked).

They need to do chest and forearms next

At this point if they give us a battlepass with full content and no filler and without the 1000 credits to earn again I'll take it. The seasons is what always brought me back to grind the game.

during Season 5 and the Winter Contingency III, there seemed to be one “all encompassing” *seasonal* bundle at about 3800 credits or so… I was pretty confident in that coming into Spirit of Fire… now that Spirit of Fire is here… I’m confident that I don’t need all this (guess I’m going with black and grey standards now)

The weekly ultimate reward should include 100 credits with whatever armor, emblem, etc is there.

Even if they didnt do a battle pass and just had a bunch of operations with the store kits but they made a bunch of classic skins for the premium pass like they did with the AR I would have been fine with it, may have even preferred it to a battle pass

I would actually consider paying and giving in to microtransactions if they made good armor sets with at least s few attachment options

they could do the chests too ....

also they need to fix the equipment falling through the floor

I like your Customization Details on your Spartans

Where yes, I think getting the 1k credits back played a part in why the battlepass system was scraped. I don't think it was the major reason. The battlepass, or rather the season as a whole, was likely scraped because they were spending too much time and money making them. Turning around and then having to spend money to pay Voice Actors for the seasonal story adds up over time for a game that missed its mark at launch. 343i and Microsoft probably had many meetings about this and came to the same conclusion I did: "Just make another game and give the last one the minimum content needed to still bring in money."

Don't forget they need to do the chest next for cross core 🤔

I have been waiting for the forgers to make me something. I am creative but not in the original sense. I have an idea that I want to rerun all the halo campaigns in the infinite engine and with forgeable AI and a covenant pallet that is totally possible. The only thing I would need for them is to add in the ability to change the banished color pallet to a covenant one for the AI, and then for them to add an Elite Core. If they do that the only thing I would still want is a playable ODST core, but I know thats asking for a lot.

I've been unable to access the Customization tabs since this update. Previously it worked fine.

We can wait for the 30% sale in the store but in reality it's the same price as when it came out 😂😂😂

"B-but the new leadershi-" I don't wanna hear anyone else trying to defend 343 anymore.

just let me choose individual coatings or weapon models to buy god damnit

honestly, im kinda happy to see that remmy has finally lost his patience as well. He has stood up for a lot of 343's poor decisions in the hopes of supporting Halo as a whole. We have to be careful that this amazing franchise doesnt die.

Crazy they do this but we don’t have castle wars or griffball. Modes you could easily create with the current toolset. Not only that, but there are so many compelling forge maps and game modes I’d love to try in matchmaking and I’m not willing to mess around with the crappy custom browser for. How can you have infinite flexibility at your fingertips and cycle through the same bland maps and playlists everyday?

I usually run the mark 4, CE mark 5 and mark 5 B. I'll be adding the mark 6 into the rotation when I get max rank.

The other issue, is the fact that there's ZERO way to buy the exact amount you need. More having to over-purchase premium currency, instead of just letting us pay the exact amount. That on top of just how damn expensive the sets are, keep me from wanting to even bother, despite how much I want the Zacharias and Wilhem sets.

It would be really cool if 343 would take even 10 - 20% of the cosmetic options from the shop and then lock them behind achievements, kind of like in H3 where you had to get sword kills to get the ascetic elite armor, etc. They could also give us a way to earn credits by playing the game. I don't necessarily have a problem with microtransactions, especially when they're only for cosmetics, but free players need *some* kind of reward structure that makes them want to keep playing

I’ve never bought a bundle in a shooter. I’ve bought battlepasses and when I was younger I bought CSGO cases but I wouldn’t ever pay the price for these bundles or any of them across gaming.
