Apparently for Season 3 they totally revamped some of the vehicle destruction animations as well. Lots of little fixes and nice touches.

It feels great, everything loads up quicker (into/out of matches), no more random blooms during the splash screens, the dmr felt weird at first but getting it, they redid a lot of artwork and it seems they hit cntrl+b on all the text. Oh and no more glitching where the ai would swap out when I’d go into the armory to change anything like weapon skins. Digging the new maps, that new drop camo has come in handy.

Nervusbreakdown i still don’t get text notifications from when you start to stream, I get emails though 😆 and yes I have notifications on in the app
there must be a setting you must have set.
 
Any of ya'll touched season 3 and can give any impressions? I love the core game but man it was barebones when I was playing at launch and even in the beginning of season 2

The new maps are awesome and the gameplay feels very tight. IMO everything for Season 3 is good - the new weapon, the new item, the maps, the new armor cores, etc.

I suggest jumping back in to at least give it a shot.

I couldn't even play earlier. Kept getting stuck on "Loading other players. Tried for like 30 mins, no dice.

The OT for Infinite’s season 3 at ResetEra has provided some more information regarding the layoffs at 343. Halo Infinite’s entire sound design team has been axed as of January.

Probably shifted this over to Certain Affinity for future work.

It's a shame because the sound and music in the game is exceptional.
 
I should mention that even though I played some BTB this weekend, this game made me realize I am done playing Halo online. I am not missing out on anything. Those days are gone for me.
 
Besides multiplayer updates for Halo Infinite, I think Halo is done for now with a long break. Like 5+ years.

My guess 3 to 4 years, they’ll have the current team running the mp side whilst a smaller team works on the story/content for the next one. Hopefully by then they’ll have other internal support or have another studio aiding with sp. they should really contact certain affinity to help them, I think for five they did all our most of the work for mp, let them do sp this time.
