No matter how well-received a game is at launch, gamers always want more, and a look at the Halo Infinite subreddit shows that the most popular topic is all the features the game doesn’t have. The game’s launch is imminent, but many questions still remain. For instance, players aren’t even sure if they can replay Halo Infinite campaign missions. While patches are likely coming soon, for now, players are left wondering what exactly the state of the game is at launch.

Halo Infinite was first revealed at E3 2018, at the time considered an Xbox One title. In the years since, though, it’s gone through much change. It was supposed to launch last year as a launch title for the Xbox Series X, and now it’s finally arrived, after extended development prolonged by the COVID-19 pandemic. The game has had a staggered launch, with the multiplayer available on November 15th for all to play and then the campaign coming out on December 8th. The multiplayer has mostly been well-received, though it’s not without its issues (chief among them requests to opt-out of Halo Infinite's crossplay). With the campaign on the way, gamers are taking notice of what isn’t coming.

A current hot topic on the game’s subreddit as posted by user DarkMoonKnight is a compiled list of features Halo Infinite won’t have by the time its campaign launches. The list ranges from both multiplayer to single-player concerns, including a lack of co-op, the omission of player-created creations in the game’s Forge mode, and others. It’s extensive, with updates adding even more to the list over time. However, it’s worth noting that the Halo subreddit was temporarily locked down due to negativity, but the list is still a stark reminder that many feel the game is incomplete even after its extended development time.

A quick scroll through the comments on the topic shows many players expressing their disappointment with what isn’t in Halo Infinite and complaining about its functionality and rewards. A few posters highlight the game’s microtransactions, arguing that the costs are too steep for the reward earned. This backlash is reminiscent of early complaints regarding Halo Infinite inspired a change in daily challenge XP rates. It is possible that, if this movement gains enough steam, it may achieve results.

With the campaign launch imminent, reviews are coming in for Halo Infinite, and so far it seems to be earning quite a bit of praise from critics. However, critics don’t always seem to match up with the wider player base, as may be the case here if Reddit is anything to go by. As Halo Infinite gets patched, it remains to be seen if gamers will ultimately be satisfied.
