Even players who enjoy the gameplay of Halo Infinite are struggling to ignore the game’s problems, with some saying that the lack of campaign co-op left a “taste in the mouth”. I.” On the Halo subreddit, fans were left very disappointed with the news of Season 2, after what was already a pretty tough Season 1.
Halo Infinite has faced an extended delay, from late 2020 to December 2021. Last year, Halo Infinite’s Joseph Staten said he was “very proud of the studio and Xbox” for delaying the game. . Witnessing some of the limited content the game is dealing with, some Halo fans can’t help but wonder what state the game was in when Microsoft decided to delay the game.

My whole concern and impulse to play #HaloInfiniteCo-op-based campaign. That’s how I’ve always played Halo.
That it doesn’t launch with the game is still a bad decision.
For me, the excitement for Infinite has completely waned. Very disappointing.
