After hours of trying to get into the Halo Infinite Technical beta, I finally got in and played this morning before work. Gonna give a few quick thoughts. I'll expand on them after the flight is over Monday. PROS: -The AR feels great. It's a weapon that can be used to defend and attack effectively. Unlike the AR in Halo 3 and Reach. -The Neelder is OP. -The brought back the Halo CE shield recharge sound -Shield break and visual ques for shields are really good. -Map design is varied and works. Rewards high ground positions. -Brought back sprint and clamber CONS: -No longer red vs blue. It's outline vs non outline. It's damn near impossible to figure out who the enemy is because everyone is the same color. -The Needler is OP -Grenades seem pointless. Their blast radius is about 4 inches. -The Sidekick sucks. -The changed how ADS and zoom works. Now mapped to different inputs for some reason and not all weapons have them. -Its really slow now compared to Halo 5. Not a fan. -Radar no longer shows you if people are above or below you. -Its no longer has color. Everything is drab and silver and gray. It's a beta and alot can change. In had a good time with it so far. Let me know if you guys have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them.
