TRMNTR Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 Tons of info in there. Quote TL;DR We recommend reading the full blog below to get all the details and context, but here’s a quick look at some of the updates coming when Season 2 launches on May 3. This is by no means everything, and you can find additional insights from the team in each of their sections below, but we wanted to list some outcomes we think you’d like to see up front that are already locked and loaded for next month as work continues in numerous other areas. AUDIO The ability to hear an opponent’s shield recharge sound will be reduced to prevent providing too much information about a player’s location The volume of the Grunt Birthday Party sound effect will be increased in Campaign MULTIPLAYER Arena Catalyst (new Arena map) will be added to multiple playlists on day one King of the Hill will be added to multiple playlists Attrition will be added to multiple playlists In Attrition, a revived player will be able to move immediately after spawning back in Motion Tracker (Radar) will have its outer edge detection enabled for shooting and sprinting in social playlists Big Team Battle Breaker (new BTB map) will be added to matchmaking on day one Jeff Steitzer’s voice is returning to call out player-earned medals Issue causing asymmetrical Weapon Rack spawns has been addressed Matchmaking Rather than track a player’s entire session, the CSR progression bar will now reflect the progress made from their most recent match Custom Games & Forge Addressing some Custom Game bugs, with more coming down the road Personal AI & Spartan Chatter Balance adjustments were made to emphasize what’s most important for players PC Noticeable stability improvements; the team has resolved dozens of PC crashes SANDBOX Networking Melee fights should be more consistent, with opponents “phasing” through each other less and “whiffing” less when a melee should’ve connected Weapons A global melee damage decrease of 10% on all weapons will require the Mangler to land two shots and a beatdown for a kill. The Ravager’s base (non-charged) shot will see a damage increase Friend or Foe (IFF) Recognition (Player Outlines) This system will now have options allowing players to modify the opacity and thickness based on their preferences Equipment Drop Wall will see slight performance increases Overshield will provide slightly more shielding Vehicles Chopper collision (splatter) damage will be increased to its vehicle-splattering glory Banshee’s agility and damage output will be increased to improve its role as a strike fighter Warthog & Razorback should be more resistant to flipping and bouncing We’ll have another Outcomes blog focusing on the Live Team’s areas such as Customization, Shop, Battle Pass, Progression (Challenges), Events, Theater, and Observer Mode in the near future. Be sure to keep an eye out for it here on Halo Waypoint and give it a read when it lands. Today’s Season 1 Outcomes blog is meant to highlight key community themes and the Halo Infinite team’s responses to each of them. To start, we’ll be going in alphabetical order and kicking things off with our teammates working on Accessibility! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRMNTR Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 1 minute ago, 0verlord said: How many new maps in ranked will they introduce? 1 Arena, 1 BTB. That's 1 less arena map than what I was hoping for. Pretty measly. However, if they're back on track, we might see a new map every season. That's 1 map every 3 months.

If you had your fill, might be a good idea to wait for new game modes. I already put 50 hrs which is quiet high and surprising for me. I would return properly once they bring some of those modes from Halo 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halo doesn't do new weapons (as much) though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaibhavp Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 I am hearing about a last Spartan standing mode. Maybe a battle royale type mode on one of BTB maps? They could cut the tedium from other BR games. Could be fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
