Campaign game play is good, You can fight against characteristics enemies with various weapons and vehicles. Also fight with your marines and give powerful weapons to them whatever you want. Armor abilities are helpful to fight. Drop wall to take cover yourself, threat sensor to find enemies where they are, thruster to avoid enemy's dangerous attacks quickly. And the grappling hook is the quite big one. This is VERY useful to shifting anywhere, you can climb 90°cliffs when you upgrade grappling hook. The great mobility of grappling hook increase non linearity of this campaign's semi open world experience. You not need to reach your destination through uncomfortable ways, just use grappling hook, jump and climb to your destinations. The side quests are useful to increase your abilities and get more power weapons and vehicles to use. But if you want, you not need to do these side quests. You can play main missions of this game without any side quests. They are just options if you want. You can easily finish this campaign on easy or normal difficulty.

    The story is quite okay. The 343 remove there many failures of halo 4 and 5's storytelling and it's a good thing. But some problems included like you need to find some audio logs to help to understand story more easier and the villains are not much impact in this campaign. But the characteristics of protagonists such as Master Chief, The Weapon, Pilot are great. Based on these results, I hope 343 will make more better stories for next Halo series.

    The multiplay core gameplay is great. All players start with AR and sidekick. And they fight each other for victory with more good weapons and abilities which they are spawns on the map. 4vs4 matches are quite tight but it gives fun to fight with mixture of various weapons and ability items. 12vs12 the Big Team Battle is more fun than 4vs4 arena matches for casual players. The larger scale than 4vs4 with various vehicles, more weapons, item spawns and random ordinance of power weapons and power items.

    But the management of multiplay is not good now. The shop item's price is expensive, the cross-core armor customization is not available now, no more contents such as new maps, mods, weapons in season 1. 343 only gives bug fixes and stability fixes right now so if you want more contents, you will need to return when season 2 or season 3 with forge mod is arrival. Honestly if I can give a score only a management of this multiplayer right now I'll give just 3/10.

    Anyway the core game plays of campaign and multiplay are great. The story is quite okay. The only problem of 343 right now is they MUST do better with their multiplay management.    … Expand

Virtually no content for season one, there was a beta to fix issues but the same issues persist post mid season1 update, maps in BTB can feel unbalanced, tanks spawn at the worst times that can give a dominating team even more firepower, matchmaking is still buggy, I still glitch out hard when I get hijacked, high power is the most unbalanced map I’ve ever played and it’s 1 of only 3 BTB STILL, if I get 100 kills in a game of slayer someone with 0 with still gets the same amount of exp post game, leader boards from previous game don’t function correctly, I can’t mute one person I have to spend 20 seconds in the menu mid game to mute all, I get shot around corners constantly, rocket launchers damage output wildly inconsistent, etc.

    I could write a book. With the lack of content and still buggy mess of a game almost 4 months since the start of the Beta, no wonder player counts are so low. Luckily it’s not as bad as Vangaurd or Battlefield!! Fml.    … Expand

    The open world is a fresh take on the game, allowing you to battle in ways never seen before. I really liked to able to lead my own little squad to take on enemy bases, and wished there were more ways to customize and use your marines.

    Honestly, Halo Infinite really blew my expectations away other than the above, from what I'd seen. I loved the grapple mechanic they had! That was the most freaking fun, I've EVER had, playing a Halo game. I loved the "open world" aspect of the game... or the little slice we got?

    I'm surprised some story expansion DLC hasn't been mentioned so far?

    A lot of little things that we saw in the trailers didn't make it into the final game.. Some of environments, animals, etc.. its stuff you expect buying into the marketing.

    I loved the fact that I was able to go almost the WHOLE game, with the kit selection I wanted. So basically a lot of shotgunning things in the face. Again it WAS TRULY ENJOYABLE! I loved that. But the game did force me to switch it up occasionally whether I wanted to or not.

    in regards to the multiplayer.. I gave it a bit of a shot, the BOTS were really cool feature, basically to warm up before you fight other people.

    Being as I'm getting older & don't have the twitch reflexes of the younger set of gamers coming up, it was nice to be able to engage in a different aspect of the game, w/o being put through pure misery. That being said, their seemed to be something off, with the shooting mechanic when engaging in the PvP. I don't know, what it was exactly, & I couldn't put it to words, but something just seemed "off" occasionally.

    Anyways, the team behind this game, nailed a lot of little things, like the climbing, the vehicle stealing, etc.. from enemies..

    I don't have a single regret about my experience with the game & story mode for the most part. It was a very fun romp!

    I will say one thing though, the aircraft fragility was annoying as ALL GET OUT THOUGH.. I do remember how much I hated that one aspect.

    TL:DR If you like Halo, if you like FPS, for the story, it's worth picking up. I have no regrets with the purchase.    … Expand

I always get excited when a new Halo game comes out because it's Halo c'mon! However, after the disappointment that Halo 4 and 5 were, I crossed all of my finger's that Infinite would get it right. I was disappointed again. I enjoyed the new fresh take on the Halo genre and appreciated 343 trying something different. However, it didn't really work for me. The way they designed this game had so much more potential than we were shown. For example, I loved having to clear out the UNSC bases from the Banished but, there was no incentive to come back to them later in the game. I think it would have been better if the bases were attacked by Banished forces and could be recaptured. Also, I loved the open world aspect with the contrasting linear story. But the catch is that the open world is a static biome/landscape filled with almost nothing. Again, there is no incentive to explore the "world" because theres nothing interesting in-between the mission areas. In summary, Halo Infinite was fun to the end but I think they missed a lot. My review was going to be 7/10 but I'm lowering it down to 6 just because I didn't know you couldn't go back and replay missions to get skulls you missed. So, you have to replay the entire game to get every skull if you miss a single one in the "off-map" missions. Annoying and I'm not doing that.… Expand

The Master Chief's solo return as a shooter is one of the most atmospheric experiences of the year for me. The tried-and-tested mechanics have been sensibly refined, and the handling of the futuristic shooting club is convincing. The AI, which is particularly passable in larger groups, ensures that you constantly have to adapt your approach, use the armor gimmicks including the polarizing grappling hook and take advantage of all the advantages that the clever level design offers in both the lush outdoor areas and the interior rooms. However, in the nicely staged boss fights, 343 rarely has the right sense of when "enough" is - they almost always go a tad too long. And apart from the compelling action? I expressly welcome the decision to connect the linear campaign missions not only with semi-tubes as before, but also with a largely freely accessible open world. This is one of the possible correct ways to take the Master Chief into a game-mechanically relevant future. But 343 Industries wasn't as successful with the mission design of the side activities as they were with the shooter mechanics. The developers didn't come up with much more than standard missions adapted to the ring world, such as "kill this", "find that" or "destroy that" and can only be the first step. However, as the campaign story steadily loses its appeal after the promising start, the player's focus becomes too much on those superficial, run-of-the-mill activities that Zeta Halo throws at them. Make fun? Absolutely! Can you do without them? Yes! Accordingly, they act more like entertaining fillers than as a useful addition to the campaign tasks. When it comes to technology, too, there is a lot of light and some shadows. The bottom line is that 343 got the graphics curve that some wouldn't have expected after the first "real" gameplay demos. Despite all the improvements, it's a long way from being "the flagship title" for the Xbox Series X. Nevertheless, the at least good, in some cases even very good overall picture is not only coherent and respectable (even if Zeta Halo could do with more varied areas), but is also presented fluently. The shooter as a core competence of Halo is stronger than it has been for a long time.… Expand

    Scoring this game a 9 may be a bit high for some but I am grading it on the gameplay and fun, both of which I feel are offered in excess with Halo Infinite.

I agree with many frustrated gamers that Halo needs to offer some new maps, co-op gameplay etc. I suppose I come from a generation that was just used to getting the game you got and that was all. So while I agree the lack of updates has been frustrating, I guess it does not bother me as much.… Expand

    Phenomenal game. Definitely game of the year for 2021. Great shooting action, good coherent story, and a glorious world to explore. The multiplayer is really fun but has some cheating issues. Best place to play is definitely PC. There are a couple repetitive environments but other than that it’s an amazing game that you should play.

    A good variation to the series of halo to make the game an open world, but manteining the importance of the mission. The combat system is really good with some improvements and new things that can be used. The story isn't unforgettable like the other halos but i think its not bad.

Dare I say...I enjoyed this more than Reach and it might be my favourite entry since 3?

    Can't really speak for the online mode. I played a few games and it feels solid, but I generally can't stand modern progression systems. So this rating is just for the campaign. Maybe I wouldn't be as kind if I had paid full price for it, but as a jumping-off point into Game Pass on my shiny new Series X this was well-worth my time. Barely any downtime spent on loading screens and a smooth, consistent 60 fps? Simply wonderful.    … Expand

Campaign co-op and forge are nowhere to be found, which is extremely disappointing. My last issue I take with the game is the F2P elements, such as expensive microtransactions, and a lame battle pass. Overall, 343 Industries has made the first great Halo game since Bungie left the series, and hopefully can carry on this innovation into the next installment in the series.… Expand

    Multiplayer have some game breaking issues that most likely will never get any fixes. In its core the multiplayer is great and a lot of fun which makes it so sad that they don’t fix the issues. The main issues are:

    - DESYNC – Largest problem in the multiplayer. Getting shot behind walls, shots not registering, beatdown from behind not killing, beatdown not from behind killing, grenades not causing damage and so on. Will probably never gets fixed. The old Halo titles (1, 2, 3, reach) plays much better and they never had these problems.
    - No region filters. In halo mcc you can set that you only want to play on for example European servers. This is not possible in Infinite which means that you, when playing in Europe, will get thrown into North American servers sometimes (especially occurring when playing late in central European time). North American servers are unplayable to play on for Europeans due to that the ping is 140-200 ms.
    - Big team is not very fun anymore. Largest problem are the maps which are designed like Formel 1 tracks which causes ground vehicles to become useless due to that there is only one route to take which makes them easy to destroy. Also, they are cluttered with obstacles on the drive paths. What happened to the big and open maps that we all loved from the older titles? Adding all the 1 million anti vehicles equipment’s doesn’t make it any better (especially the ridiculous electric grenade or dynamo or whatever it’s called).
    - Still no co-op, forge, custom browser, theater is broken and barely usable.
    - They didn’t add any player collision which is so stupid. Nobody asked for this to be removed.    … Expand

A história é de longe a melhor de Halo nos últimos anos, sem falar na substituta de Cortana, que caiu como uma luva. O enredo possui um forte valor sentimental, e um apelo emocional excelente, finalmente me senti jogando um Halo digno de uma saga fabulosa. Foi inserido vida ao ambiente, algo quase que ausente nos dois últimos Halos, e o mundo semi aberto foi muito bem vindo. Com bastante coisas para fazer e pontos para conquistar, entretanto, as missões se tornam repetitivas. De pontos negativos, pode ser citado justamente o ambiente, apesar de nesse game existe vida no cenário, ainda assim é muito pequeno comparado a outros jogos de mesma grandiosidade. Mais um aspecto negativo é a expressão facial dos inimigos, dos Brutes, é bastante limitada, com aparência pobre, isso se compararmos a outros jogos da franquia. A respeito do gráfico, é um excelente gráfico para a geração passada, mas ainda sim inferior ao de Halo 5 Guardians. No mais, Halo Infinite é um excelente jogo para a franquia Halo, trouxe momentos nostálgicos como outrora nos causava.

    Upon loading up halo infinite I was extremely impressed. It actually felt like a halo game on first play.

    After a few hours the issue's really started to show through.

    Pretty much all customisation is locked behind a paywall even colours of Spartan armour. What's even worse is some weapon skins etc are timed so you don't even own them.

    Secondly I actually found going around the map extremely tedious and ammo was always an issue for me.

    The main story is extremely short considering it's pretty much open world exploration.

    Now let's discuss the online eek.

    As said I was a pure halo head from halo 2 introducing online right through to reach I lived online in halo (once completed the campaign on legendary).

    One thing I loved about halo was the online competitive matches and many options of what to play whether team slayer, snipers, swat, objective or even big team battles kept me hooked for years.

    Since 343 took over I've not been able to get into it so imagine how even more disappointed I was playing through game and feeling like halo again only to realise there's no online content.

    Ranked playlists are limited to one playlist and it's got everything thrown in so what happens is you get stuck in an objective game where people only want kid and don't care about the objective because all they're interested in is slayer.

    There's also game breaking issues called server desynching. All online games have a level of this however halo infinite is horrendous. So bad in fact that they tried to fix and made it even worse and then publicly came out saying they couldn't fix it.

    It's so bad that every other game it felt like major lag where you're running for cover and hide behind it only to die through the cover simply because the server hadn't updated for them. As far as their screen concerned you're standing out in the open. Or you're shooting someone and half your bullets aren't registering so you're shooting someone in the back a few times they turn round and outshoot you even though you put enough ammo into their back to kill multiple enemies.

    I totally understand there not being much to play on the series X so for many people any game is a good game but coming from being hyped every time I put halo on even after 1000's of hours of play to uninstalling the game after a week of trying is too much to ignore.    … Expand

    If the open-world concept had been better utilized and if the writers had added more interesting characters to the story, Infinite could have easily been one of the best Halo games ever. The shootouts are highly entertaining and the open world brings new tactical possibilities. The multiplayer is just as good, being slightly faster than before. [Issue#317]

    Halo is back to its best with Halo Infinite, tight controls, and seriously thirst-quenching gunplay that feels so intuitively satisfying. Traversal has been improved hugely by the addition of the grappleshot, allowing Master Chief to zip around at speed, as well as adding a unique element for multiplayer matches. A particular dampener has to be directed at the online multiplayer, which is riddled with cheaters, but, if they were to be removed then the multiplayer offers a solid free-to-play experience that is fast and frantic. Halo Infinite, alongside a number of other Xbox first-party titles is a great addition to Xbox Game Pass, and it is certainly a marquee game that warrants a subscription to the service.

    There’s not much to do in the open world, but thankfully, it doesn’t play a big role either. Infinite mostly sticks to what makes Halo great: first-person action. Smart level design, great mobility mechanics like grappling hook, and good AI make for some really memorable moments. [Issue#258, p.42]
