In my opinion it is very good these days. Almost all of the major problems at launch have been resolved. There’s a ton of game modes and maps. They added firefight, forge, custom games, infection, and there are like 15 different playlist to choose from.
They’re actively working on networking improvements (three playlists use the new netcode currently, and they’re using that to test how well it works before making the whole game use it).
Cosmetics are in a much better place than at launch. There are a ton of options and a lot of things work on every armor set.
The biggest issue imo is still the battle pass system. Limited time events (like the Christmas event) replace the season pass if you don’t buy the paid version, so there isn’t much to unlock at a given time unless you pay. But, paid passes never expire, and you can go back and buy old passes, and most passes contain enough credits to buy another pass, so it’s basically a one-ti.e fee.
If you don’t like Halo, nothing has changed that will make you like it. The game plays like it did at launch in terms of gunplay and movement. But the overall experience is in a much better state than at launch
It was about a year ago. A lot of upper management departed. They brought in the guy who used to be in charge of MCC to be the new studio head.
It took a few months to start seeing an impact, but it’s been pretty much constant wins since about Season 4 launched. Only L’s have been monetization stuff, like the shop prices increasing and battle passes still being pretty weak.
343 has been full of W’s ever since the new management took over. We love to see it.
Most of the games I play don’t run on Linux sadly. Even Lethal Company, which is perfectly fine on Linux, couldn’t be captured by OBS, so I had to switch to Windows before I could stream.
Game compatibility is getting better but still not good
Going from 256GB -> 1TB is $400. That’s insanity. A 1TB NVME drive is less than $100 these days.
