Or that u can still use real money to buy paytowin cards in war zone. Just now u can pick what u pay for and make it affect game play even more.Fully Skully wrote:No "paid" lootboxes.

I doubt there will be loot boxes after the massive backlash around it hell even certain games are taking out loot boxes or down right not having them like battlefield 5 and anthem I guarantee if the backlash wasn't so big those games would have themFully Skully wrote:No "paid" lootboxes.

I hope so.

I don't think we'll learn much more about Halo Infinite. If they weren't interested in sharing the beans at E3, not sure what they would have at this point to show at XO18.
I honestly wouldn't put it past them. If you ask me don't get your hopes up on anything until we get actual confirmation, then the blow is easier to take.HaloCrysisKIA88 wrote:they cant be that stupidFully Skully wrote:I hope so.

I was sure there will be no new trailer for Halo Infinite till next year E3.Now with this announcement i think that we will see something at this event.

No doubt.

yep im excited for infinite don't me wrong im being cautious at same time I been noticing that companies are now starting to slowly back off from lootboxes I think the microtransactions should be a system like Titanfall 2 did which was only cosmetic and you get what you paid for I think that's the way it should go if microtransactions must be in the gameFully Skully wrote:No doubt.

Maybe another teaser but I'm not really expecting anything else just yet.
Speaking from a marketing perspective everyone watching the microsoft conference it probably already going to buy halo and owns xbox's. You want to get as many new eyes on the game as possible and convert new sales. Make people see a reason to pick up an XBone, show the larger mass why they need the newest halo game rather then just the fan boys who are going to purchase it regardless.HaloCrysisKIA88 wrote:why not its a big conference by Microsoft themselves after all halo 2 was showcased at any event like this back in the dayF0X McCL0UD wrote:Maybe a passing nod, a poster perhaps?

Its possible they'll show a trailer, heck I hope they do, but it might not make the most business sense just yet.

I'm not expecting anything. With their wording in their announcement blog, I think the game is quite a ways off (2020), and I think we won't be getting any info for the rest of the year.
