that would be really cool.
The standard console is already a "limited edition" based on availability!
Seems like the campaign is an after thought.
Custom console trailer, Multiplayer cinematic
campaign.....crickets

They’ve probably been holding onto them since last year but couldn’t sell them because of the delay
no announcement for collectors or legendary edition

I didn't even think of that, you're probably right. Ouch!
Don't know how accurate this report is but a possibility.
'Halo Infinite' campaign under "massive strain" according to dev
A supposed 343 Industries dev has spoken out on 'Halo Infinite''s lack of co-op and Forge at launch, saying that the campaign is under a "massive strain".

“The team has been pushing not just delays to Forge and Co-op, but Campaign in general. I can see Multiplayer making release date in a great state, with basically all of the main modes plus a couple grab bag goodies, including some original stuff we’re cooking up – a different variant of Infection with original resources and a severely updated Invasion mode with new maps. However, Campaign is under some MASSIVE strain.”
The dev went on to explain that the Campaign component has been “aggressively course-corrected” since the departure of director Chris Lee in April.
“Campaign had a lot of cut content and needed massive reworks to WORK after we switched hard off Chris and took in Joseph’s [Staten] direction for the game, but it mostly uses assets and work we had in 2020, just shuffled around,” they said.
On the topic of Forge, the alleged 343 dev said that it’s “just untenable” and “Microsoft always knew it wouldn’t be ready for [the] release date, if ever, and I doubt it’ll come in six months either”.
“The reality is, Forge isn’t just a cute map editor anymore, not after 5, and we can’t release anything that isn’t up to snuff to the quality of that game’s Forge, which took more effort than anyone realises,” they continued. “Infinite‘s Forge will have not only every feature 5’s had, but a lot of extra resources based on past games and custom game functionality” – noting that “team is overworked, pushed hard and tired”.
As for Co-op in Halo Infinite‘s Campaign, the developer explained that the problem is simpler than fans realize saying “to put it bluntly, nobody thought of how it’d work” especially with the open-world system.
The Reddit post went on further with the anonymous dev claiming various other problems with the game and that Campaign Co-op “is a mess and downright unplayable” and saying that delaying the Campaign altogether was “severely considered” with only Multiplayer at launch.
It’s important to note that it’s unclear whether or not this person is a genuine 343 Industries employee, so their claims may be false.
I could be wrong but they’re two, maybe three separate teams working on infinite, not including certain affinity. One on campaign, one for multiplayer and the other just for forge.
I think that includes the directors cut, dlc and visual update for series x/s
Yeah it's lol worthy.I think that includes the directors cut, dlc and visual update for series x/s
True, perhaps, but like any established franchise or studio they’ll do it because they could and people will gobble it up….look at cyberpunk, Mario party 10/tennis-aces, or days gone
Those games offer much more.
Halo Infinite MP is free.
$60 for a Halo campaign is super overpriced.
I wanna agree with ya on that but we haven’t seen what’s to offer in the campaign. Yeah the visuals have been lacking, even though the cinemática look great, but the gameplay still (in my eyes) looked fun.
I got hope and Jesus at my side, seriously, Hope in accounting and Jesus in logistics…
I must have one of those days, but I read your post as fixed above at first lol
If online- AND split screen co-op at launch and a campaign that's worthy of the Halo name at 15-20h, than I definitely think it's fair price... I mean, people will pay $70 for a one time play of Last of Us 3 in a few years and no one will comment on that pricing.
That article annoyed me to read it. It's so over written it's incredible. It's like he gets paid by the word. It could have been truncated to a quarter of the length.
