Agreed, I would say they announced it earlier due to rumors, but they were the ones teasing or at the very least fanning the flames of the rumor lol.
LOL, I was thinking this just now watching Snipedown play H3 and was about to say the exact same thing.
All the hype feels gone. So fucking dumb to announce it as early as they did.
And to think I thought it was a possibility they were gonna drop a "OUT NOW!" bombshell on us. I just continue to be disappointed by them.
Well that's on you and everyone else that thought that because Apex did it a month earlier and suddenly people thought it was common place.
Hype was so high, now it's died down. I'm mostly just excited for Reach on the Xbox version though.
As someone who praised Halo 5 for the first two years I gotta say I hope Infinite just throws everything it introduced in the trash. Done with all this "advanced mobility"
Game is impossible to return to. Can't believe they made the br unusable with that unnecessary patch.

Holy shit flightings aren't even gonna begin before E3. What a clusterfuck.
It's good that 343 is transparent, but it feels like everything they release is delayed or later than you'd want. This kind of thing just ruins hype. They love to overpromise instead of overperform.
Back in the days I trusted 343 to always eventually deliver a quality product. Keyword is eventually.
As long as they can outpace GRRM.

This is my hope, since it's taking longer maybe the gaps between flights and release as well as subsequent games will be shorter.
They shouldn't have even mentioned that it would possibly be ready end of April. It gets expectations up and every day it isn't out fans get upset. They need to stop overselling and just say it will be ready when it's ready.
I believe they've said there will be flighting for all aspects. Though what the first flight will test is unknown.
I'm ready for Network Test 2. I need that generator defense nonsense back.
If they didn't say anything or were super cagey, people would complain about how opaque they are being.
There is no winning with this sort of thing. However, I much prefer disappointing but truthful updates over a brick wall of marketing garbage.

Hey guys, I had someone from a shop tell me that a serial number for one of my products was relevant to Halo. The serial number is BCMS343. I think he said not just BCMS was Halo but 343 was as well. Can someone explain the significance? I don't play Halo but I'm just curious.
Or maybe it was a completely different game he was talking about. I'm pretty sure it was Halo though.

I don't think I'd mind crouch sliding staying in and evolving
otherwise, I still think they should add power weapons that have mobility features, like a grapple hook or something
343 Guilty Spark is a character in the Halo universe (an ancient alien AI thing... sort of), and the division of Microsoft in charge of the franchise is named after him/it, 343 Industries.
I don't know about "BCMS," MS could be Microsoft but BC I have no idea. Maybe some lore nerd knows (fuchsdh )
You're a lore nerd! You be nice to my boy fooshscadoosh.
They're probably just talking about the 343. Unless it's some super obscure weapon stuff the BCMS stuff isn't any specific Halo fallout.
Apparently they want us to keep wiggling our thumbsticks while waiting 5+ minutes for a match.
Simulating an intense 1vs1 battle, in order to not get banned. That's definitely a new (and kinda funny) one. lol :D
In all seriousness, though... You should probably send this to someone at 343i. Postums might be your best bet.
I kinda forgot E3 is around the corner....
Now my Anxiety is fever pitch. I expect some extreme reactions to whatever is shown... Like, it'll either be the best thing ever or the worst thing ever.
I'm not ready.
I need a barn leak to temper my expectations

God, I barely recognize anyone in here anymore.
Are people really super pissed about the Flightings being pushed back to post-E3? It's only 3 weeks away lol

I'm looking forward to the Engine talk, because that's something that they confirmed for E3.
Not sure what else to expect, seeing as how Halo: Infinite is most likely a 2020 title and they never revealed that much 1 1/2 years prior to launch in the past.

If they show a sexy engine and sexy UGC tools, they'll win me over
i think you are referring to what Bonnie Ross said? my interpretation of that was that the lead engine guy would be at e3 talking about the engine - likely to press. i didnt take that to mean that thats what they'd be showing - another engine demo. i expect at least a sp and/or mp trailer.
They already showed the engine demo last year, so they'll have more than that. I'm expecting a full trailer with information about when the multiplayer beta will start.
I think they'll show off a good bit of the game. It'll be alpha gameplay with emphasis on graphics, AI, and scope.
Then after E3 I can't wait for the ViDocs and The Sprint. Those are the best hype generators for launch.

That's pretty much the question that I want to have answered. Doesn't need to be at E3, but I just want to know what kind of improvements we can expect.
Don't really want to go into E3 with high expectations, so I'm just looking forward to what has been confirmed. That's all.
No doubt that whatever they will show be interesting either way.
Hope they'll do ViDocs and/or The Sprint again. Really love these insights into development. Might actually rewatch a couple of those prior to E3.
Just reread the definitive edition of First Strike, fuck how I wish this was the TV show first season. So many iconic engagements, action, character moments and a real showcase of what made players/EU fans in the first place. Excited for E3, hope they balls out show a lot of Halo, not just a trailer another words.
