I wouldn’t be a doomsayer just yet, can we at least wait until the game comes out before we call it “omg biggest flop ever”
Shit might just surprise you if you’re even remotely interested in it.

That looks like such a cool job to have (if a little dangerous). Is it normal for a AAA game to go to these lengths when recording sounds?
Also, what's with all the constant Xbox/Halo hate? The recent Gears was a fine game - is there any reason this won't be? I swear the Sony fanboys are becoming so arrogant that seeing Scarlet wipe the floor with the PS5 would be almost as satisfying as seeing Trump beat Hilary in 2016. Come on Microsoft, make Xbox great again and win bigly in the 9th gen!

Its MS, they can easily afford loss and it will break even in long run

Which is why it would make sense to include it as a digital download with Scarlett to move more systems and profit later on other title sales.And we all will play it for 1$

I'll second this. I really want to see a win with Halo Infinite, it's one of my favorite franchises. Honestly, the only thing bad with Halo 4 was the Multiplayer then the only thing wrong with Halo 5 was the Single Player. If they can just fine tune and have both of them be great, then it will be glorious. I doubt there are many people that may agree with me, but I went out of my way at times to play Halo 5 MP the same way I did with Halo 3. It was enjoyable.
I just hope the Halo 3 warthog makes a come back.

Halo one still has the best campaign imo and probably had the least amount money spent on it, I played it recently and it still plays amazingly after all these years. Halo odst is my 2nd favourite and that budget would have been quite small in comparison to the other games. You don't need vast amounts of cash to make an amazing halo game.

Can we renew that 1$ offer as many times (months) as we want?... 12$ for a year of GP?

One would hope this has more replay value than GTA that currently hold the highest right?

I can imagine this becoming some sort of mmo in the end. Like Planetside but way more polished with a singleplayer campaign.

well as Halo 5 showed us, they dont need to sell 10 million copies to break even. Actually they can make a killing without selling 10 million copies.
If im not mistaken, Halo 5 was a shining example of wildly successful in-game transactions.
Personally, Halo is one of my all time fav franchises but i agree with the sentiment that 343 doesnt have the chops to make a game worthy of halo 1-3. Idk, maybe im wrong; they did produce a solid MP in Halo 5. I just thought the maps were terrible.
It feasible 343 can make a standout MP game but i wont hold my breath. They need to evolve the game while at the same time maintaining the core Halo gameplay. Its tough

That is marketing gold.. they so should do that just to take the piss and piss everyone else off.

I really hope they aren't going to make the mistake of going GAAS with infinite. but something makes me think we are going to see destiny halo edition.

The only question that needs asking is why, after all these years, and a number of (inarguably) fine releases should the appeal of he Halo franchise suddenly expand to the sort of GTA'esque dimensions that would justify such a huge dev-budget?
I really do not see it, because the shooter market is so much bigger and heavily contested these days.

That silly trailer they showed, if that's Xbox Scarlett then they should just scrap it and make a proper next gen game cause to me it's rubbish it looks current gen.

Wonder how much of that budget is for hiring new creative directors and other high level vacancies.

Halo 5 MP was just as awful as Halo 4 MP.
They really have to nail the Gameplay first... im still waiting for a successor to Halo 3 and not some kind of frankenstein game that doesnt know what it wants to be.
Because it is made first and foremost for current gen. PC and Scarlett Version will get a fresh coat of paint and thats it.

Good. H5 just needed a better campaign. Controls are fantastic, multiplayer is also great. Just hope they keep Warzone and expand upon it.

Just finished halo 5 campaign.
What a shitshow.. Geezus christ, that was horrible. Hardly played as masterchief. The story was utter shit and the ending was the worst.
I was thinking. A game like this.. Maybe singleplayer and multiplayer should be 2 standalone games as the halo franchise lends itself for a really epic 40 hour long single player game

This would include the marketing spend, they're launching a console with it after all.

I dunno, they know they fucked up Halo 5's single player. Halo Infinite is their chance for redemption. I give them this shot. I don't think it's fair to say this is an instant flop. I know Game Pass is gonna go through the roof when this drops, that's for sure. I will buy the game day 1. Guaranteed.

I mean, how many people have played Halo 5 and gone back to Halo 3? It's a very jarring experiance and I've found they are both great in their own right. But if I had a choice I'd stick with Halo 5's gameplay style without Warzone. The only thing I would add to Halo 3's gameplay is sprint if I had my choice.

Awful lot of you folks like talking about THE TAINT OF FAILURE here. Sure, H4 and H5 didn’t live up to expectations, but I don’t see why everyone here needs to pre-judge this game. The last trailer looked fun. I’m cautiously optimistic. For those of you who have apparently lost track of things, Microsoft is still trying to turn around a freaking aircraft carrier and get back to publishing good games again. That shit takes years, but it’s doable, as Gears 5 just proved.

I love how Halo 5 get's a bad rep when Halo 2 gets next to none. The Single-player mode in that game was so poor, and it was only saved by the Multi-player (quite like Halo V ironically)

Even tho I liked the multiplayer it’s still far from what is expected from a halo game. So many needless aspects remained like sprint and abilities (tbh the thrust was alright)

so Infinite destined to be GaaS in order to try to recover the budget
Halo 2 has ALWAYS had a bad rep. What you talkin about?
