ZooZoo Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2021-12-08-343-apologises-for-lack-of-halo-infinite-campaign-pre-load-as-fans-face-minimum-30gb-download-tonight Lawde ka smart delivery. Can't even figure out preloading their most anticipated game. Imagine millions trying to download the 30 odd gb together, it was basically self inflicted DDOS attack. Good game, shitty roll out. For 5 mins I wasnt sure why my updated game is still showing preorder in the campaign mode. Turned out that Xbox app was buggy and it didnt show the update till you restart it and then select the Halo Infinite Campaign option from drop down. And then bots say they dont have to jump through hoops. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you've pointed it out, what is the real use of that case and disc btw ? I'm still legit confused why PS5 seems like a "hoop" ? Both PS4/5 versions are just a click away (if available). If pressing a button is too much of a job.... Sigh. And you can still install a game off a disc and play on PS systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya but it makes upgrade path very easy and simple without any effort from developer. All they have to do is approve smart delivery for the game and system takes care of it. Some dont do coz they are greedy fuks like Sony and Activision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disc is clearly meant for collectors, all others will play via gamepass. Whats the point of paying 60/70usd when there is no game on it?

Gold 1.0 copy of the game should be sitting on the initial discs but now that has completely changed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assassins Creed Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Just now, Mr. Comingle said: For all cross gen games, XSX version is not on disc. Only last gen version. I guess Halo Infinite is unique in that it doesn't have any functional game code at all? Thats not it.. what ppl are saying is even Xbone version of the game is not on the disc.. this happened with Horizon 5 as well.. I mean its not a big deal with Gamepass as disc buyers are minimal but it should serve the purpose or just take it out completely... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamos Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Tbh, I prefer inserting the disc and having the option to download the game digitally. It's faster than copying 50 GB or more from blu ray to console. But it's understandable why it doesn't work for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
