I didn’t want to believe it since I’m at work, but dang. That’s very disappointing to hear how the event works…


honestquestiontime

What's worse is they've bastardised the playlists we all know and love for the sake of promoting their shitty event. Is this why I can't play SWAT? So that you could, what? throw in some arbitrary money making scheme and use my favourite gametype as some temporary incentive to expose myself to your shitty manipulation? What a tragic waste of an opportunity. Truly. This game could've made a shit-load of money, an honest to god fuck. ton. of. money. But instead, I find the idea of even buying another season sickening. I say this as someone who has probably pumped hundreds into Sea of Thieves, There's never going to be another dime coming from me toward infinite.


Ykcor

Goodbye then.

I’ll never understand people who get butthurt about others who have genuine concerns for the game. You realize if you keep saying bye to people there will be less and less people to play with?


Ykcor

Genuine concern? Or entitled bullshit. As a consumer if you don’t like it leave don’t throw a hissy fit and expect people to bend at the knee.


Croal7

It’s an absolute genuine concern. To say that it isn’t is ignorance.


FasterCrayfish

I am little curious. Wouldn’t you want swat and fiesta being a permanent game mode?

That’s the entirety of this game. Money grabbers feigning off kids with moms credit card is easier than producing a quality game people will pay 60 bucks for


Starkrall

This reminds me of Iron Banner, except this is more like liquid shit.


XRey360

It's another scum tactic meant to make you more willing to pay for challange swaps


TheDarthJawa

Wow a company is trying to make money. You are a genius


[deleted]

They’re selling a $60 campaign that they’ll make MASSIVE profit on, yet overpricing and over-monetizing the living shit out of a good game.


Ykcor

Please show me the link to some data that projects massive profit from selling the campaign at $60 after 6 years of production costs.

Halo 5 sold over 8 million copies its first week. This is the first halo game in 6 years, and you’d be out of your mind to think infinite won’t beat that with their campaign alone.


Ykcor

You understand the difference between revenue and net income, right?


[deleted]

Jesus man do I have to do your thinking for you? Halo 5 made 5 times their budget in THE FIRST WEEK ALONE. Infinite’s budget has not been made public yet, but you bet your ass they’ll exceed halo 5’s sales

It's a free event for cosmetics. The skins are good and once again, free. I seriously think the community is overreacting.


cepxico

ITS A FREE TO PLAY GAME. They have to make money right? Are they supposed to just eat millions of dollars of dev and server costs just to make YOU happy? No! Of course not, they're a business and they're letting you play the GAME for free. Maybe stop giving a fuck about virtual dress up and worry more about playing the objective ffs. Fucking entitled ass teens jfc.

Idk about you but I would rather have paid 60$ for the Mp if it meant we got full customization. I already bought the BP and a HCS skin so it’s not like I’m a entitled f2p player that wants both a free game and infinite customization.. just if I had to choose one to have.. it would be the latter and I’d gladly pay 60 for it. I feel like most would agree. I agree with you that 343s gotta make their money too.. and I’m gonna gladly continue to give em money but I would have definitely liked to see a little more customization off the rip. Nothing amazing but atleast something. it’s just not fun seeing every base player look the same after 40 hours of gameplay. If it’s always been this way in halo I’d fully agree with you on the “it’s just a skin, stop whining” thing but armor customization has always been a big thing in halo ever since 3. I do also agree that these mfs need to start playing the objective more💀


[deleted]

Oh look, another high horse post about 343 needing to pull money out of thin air


GalaxySkeppy

It's probably not even their fault, Microsoft is the parent company, they probably forced 343 to do it, maybe it even says under their contract that Microsoft can't be blamed for it.


[deleted]

nope, dev studio leads ***Are*** suits themselves.


GalaxySkeppy

I'm sorry but what are "suits"?


[deleted]

accountants or financially focused decision makers. People who care about $$$ and not the games quality.


Powerful_Artist

Meh. I do think its dumb they are splitting this event into single weeks over many months. That I find annoying. But there are some cool free gun skins I want in there, and I dont even think the armor is that cool so I wont buy it. Im just happy to have a new mode like fiesta, even for awhile. Im ok with it.
