Greg: The Battle Rifle has such a deep history in Halo and has a been a staple within the competitive scene since Halo 2, it just feels right to have it as the starting weapon with Halo Infinite being a spiritual reboot. The artists and audio experts really could not have written a more accurate love letter to Halo fans with their work on this weapon. Additionally, it is stunning both visually and audibly. As a player, you will feel confident and powerful with it equipped, just as a Spartan should. For us, the BR75 is the definitive version of that iconic weapon. Halo has a rich history with powerful pistols like the Magnum, but it also has as strong a legacy with rifles like the Battle Rifle. For Halo Infinite, we felt it was important for the utility weapon to be in the form of a rifle. If you remember, this is something that was very important to us on Halo 5: Guardians as well, and is why the Magnum played such a key role as the starting utility weapon for that title. First, the importance of nailing the classic need for a starting utility weapon. But from a sandbox perspective, there are two ideologies that matter most to us when crafting our gameplay features. Quinn: For competitive Halo there is a strong handful of tenets that we strive to understand and follow. Any item that can be earned can also be taken away through combat resolution, positioning, and tactical actions. Scavenging gameplay within a map/mode combo pushes teams to contest the acquisition of items within the Sandbox.This meant to bolster tactical decision making. When a mode’s state is progressed then all players should be informed of the change and have a window of opportunity to react to it. Arena game states are communicated efficiently and urgently.A match with two teams of equal skill should be determined by the teams’ tactical decision making as the mode’s state is continued by player action. Mechanical skill expression will get players far in the Arena ecosystem, but mastery comes from macro gameplay decision making within a map and mode’s framework.Mastery = Mechanical Depth + Tactical Decision Making.Players feel like they can have a high impact on the game individually through their skill expression within the combat sandbox and mode ruleset, but the team with the better coordination, communication, and reactive skills will seize the most victories.The Lone Wolf Survives but the Pack Thrives.
Players start the match with fair and balanced gameplay mechanics.
