Imagine still paying for Xbox gold just to play Halo online multiplayer in 2020.
edit: This is a good thing, btw.

Have MS changed their policy about F2P games not requiring XBL Gold?
lots of people pay for all sorts of multiplayer in 2020? like it's mandatory for every console? why you singling out one franchise?

I uhhh... huh, that would be interesting...
Normally I'd call out the 120FPS claim for it being inaccurate, but they only mentioned 4K60 in regards to SP. It's possible they might try pushing higher framerates in MP regardless.

Because Halo isn't Xbox exclusive anymore, since pretty much all the games are on PC now.
I would feel bad for the people playing the game on the Xbox who would still need to pay for online Halo. Feels kind of unfair at this point.
There will be no real money lootboxes. They are probably doing a season pass
Honestly that could be huge if it is true, I'm willing to play another Multiplayer Halo with BTB and vehicles, and this could be perfect
Imagine using imagination on plenty 2020 :lul:
Haven't all of the other MS microtransaction things been in-game currency though?
I mean, Fortnite also isn't the vanguard of game pass? Iunno, it just seems like a weird decision that isn't in keeping with how they've treated any of their other multiplayer content.

How on earth are y'all in this thread turning this into a negative thing?! All modern, successful multiplayer games TODAY are free and this is huuuuuge for the halo franchise.
Sometime I swear y'all aren't even videogame fans man.
Anyways, huge if true.

They're still paying to play other games online like SoT, Grounded, Gears, Forza, etc. etc. MCC isn't F2P on PC either.
If they want to make a play for the MP market in a way that isn't just their existing, dedicated fans, I'm not sure I see another path forward but this.
Though wouldn't this take some of the oomph out of the Gamepass offering? Obviously, they could give you boosters or something for being on Gamepass, but I would think that once the SP is done, it's the MP that would keep you subbed.
As for the 120fps, I'll believe that when I see it. Would be some serious sacrifice that would be required for that.

If true this is literal bombshell level kind of news. Maybe that's why they were holding off on MP talks?
A lot of people forget, myself included, but even the XB1 supports 1440p120 display output unlike Sony. I believe the Series X is confirmed to have this as well so it's definitely possible. 1080p120 should be easily doable, which the XB1 also supports.
Why? We already have a couple games confirmed for 120 fps and from what we've seen of Infinite it doesn't look particularly graphically taxing.
They should sacrifice all the graphics in mp.
All the PC players with beastly rigs puts their games at the lowest graphical settings to get 300fps.
Will be huge on PC. And I wouldn't be shocked if this announcement (still not official) would coincide with Gold no longer required for multiplayer, so there is parity with Xbox and PC.
As for 120fps, it will likely be in 1080p-1440p.

They already confirmed no loot boxes. If there is no gambling and no P2W, I really don't care how they monetize beyond that. That's just me.
