Undoubtedly one of the most anticipated games this year on Xbox is Halo Infinite, which has had a really good time in terms of months, releasing information little by little to captivate fans. However, one of the latest information has not been completely liked by the players, where it is specified that Halo Infinite will not give XP just for playing matches at launch, but XP will be earned just for completing challenges.
Through its official Twitter account, Halo Infinite Community Manager John Junyszek answered a question from a fan, arguing that there will be no XP per match at launch. The players instead, They must complete challenges to advance in the battle pass. Following this, the community expressed their overwhelming discontent with this feature, commenting that it is not a player-friendly system.
Halo Infinite won’t give XP just for playing games at launch
Hey Nick – playing and winning matches will be challenges, which will help players progress through the Battle Pass. Even though this means no per-match XP at launch, you’re still always progressing through challenges and therefore the BP. We’ll update the blog to clarify 👌

We hear you on this, daily challenges for playing matches is the plan for launch, but we’re always looking at ways to expand progression across the board. We’ll have more to share about the outcomes from key Tech Preview feedback, including this, in an upcoming blog on Waypoint.

Xbox “celebrates” keeping Halo Infinite leaks a secret
All this problem escalated much further, to the Reddit forums, where it is said that this system breaks the flow of each game, since Players are being forced to use specific weapons to complete the challenges, undermining the freedom of the game. Forcing players to play an online game in a specific way is never a good sign, quite the contrary, it always ends in a disastrous ending for titles.
The good news is that 343 Industries chief designer Jerry Hook took into account the wave of negative comments about it and said the following (translated): “We hear you, daily gameplay challenges is the blueprint for launch, but we are always looking for ways to expand progression across the board. We will have more to share about the feedback results through the Tech Preview, which includes this, in an upcoming blog on Waypoint. “
This is what the fabulous design of the Halo Infinite Xbox Series X box looks like
Hopefully 343 Industries will reconsider this decision and it will be only a function for the launch of the game, since if it is maintained, the negative comments it will have will be much greater. There is still a lot of time and betas to test the changes that the developers are making, so we will be attentive to changes or new ideas that arise.
