I really hope we see future Halo MCC updates 🙂

something funny i just realised is that microtransactions aren't even micro, they're 20 or 30 dollars, which you could buy multiple old/indie games for.

Thanks for mentioning me! Not having a steady revenue stream was the main reason they ended development. There are some other reasons as well. And I confirmed the Digsite team is still developing content for MCC.

It's absolutely crazy that a game studio that was created with the sole purpose of creating and looking after Halo games, and owned by the richest company in the world, can't afford to maintain a popular halo game because it doesn't have micro transactions.

Game companies when players can earn cosmetics through gameplay rather than microtransactions: 🤯🤯🤯

[RedDoom]

Of course they blame the community, shame on us for not wanting to waste our money. 💀

M$ trying to gaslight fans into believing it's our fault for MCC's failure is psycho. It's 100% on Microsoft. The only reason Halo still exists is because M$ and 343 have been riding the momentum that Bungie created a decade earlier. If 343's Halo 4 was the first Halo game to ever come out, the franchise would have never taken off. It would've been a one off game and never seen again.

Microtransactions are the worst thing to ever come to gaming.

Halo 5 had bad microtransactions. Halo wars 2 had bad microtransactions. Halo infinite has bad microtransactions. You can’t really blame us

Halo MCC not supported because no micro transactions.

Halo infinite has micro transactions and only gets… more micro transactions.

My biggest want, which is probably a pipe dream, is four player Halo CE and 2 campaign co-op.

[Zilchness]

Microsoft really hates halo.... it's soo obvious

[LateNightHalo]

What frustrates me about this situation is how the MCC was allowed to degrade in terms of bugs and polish during the porting process to PC.. and now the bugs and lack of polish can’t be fixed.

After OG Bungie lost control of Halo, we were all saying Microsoft would fumble the entire franchise and here we are, happened a lot faster than I anticipated tbh

1:07 "that because the halo community came out and said "no" to this type of microtransaction, the entire development cycle was cancelled by Microsoft. 343 didn't wanted this, 343 wanted to continue to working on the game"

If what happened to Halo Infinite (Releasing on an Anniversary date, MP out early, rushed out of development and contractors cycled out of Halo Infinite's development due to contacts not being renewed) isn't any indicator that the major problems with Halo (and the gaming industry as a whole) is from corporations like Microsoft and not the devs, this needs to be emphasized more. 343 is full of good people, but when Microsoft butts its ugly head into devs' work, then it leads to bad things, yet a lot of people find it easier to blame 343 or focus hate on single individuals that realistically cannot be responsible for problems.

btw the people who were contacted to work, I guarantee you big bucks that a lot of them worked on the engine and when their contracts didn't get renewed, it led to all the problems with the engine because people kept getting booted out because uh-oh Microsoft didn't want to spend an extra couple thousand dollars to actually *hire* you as an employee and see you with the team till the game is finished and out the door. Microsoft can do one thing sort of good, but then shoot themselves in the foot and tumble 100 steps back.

How dare the community expect a fully fledged game instead of our money gobbling microtransaction store. Ungrateful.

The moment mods are monetized, the vast majority of mod installations will drop.

I’m sorry but I’m not paying for mods.

[CharlieThunder]

Also we should call modders and forgers "reclaimers" lol

[TheVortexUnleashed]

Also the fact that MCC was a purchasable game micro transactions would be dumb
