“We have made the difficult decision to shift our release to 2021 to ensure the team has adequate time to deliver a Halo game experience that meets our vision”
343 Industries did list down a number of factors that prompted them to take these decisions. The ongoing world pandemic was one among them.
The game was supposed to be released this holiday, however it will be moved to a later unspecified date in 2021 to meet many changes. COVID-19 situation has affected every industry alike and just last week Riot Games announced that they’d be letting their employees days off to blow off the steam.
Shipping a title like Halo is a pressurising task and the team would be going through a lot. So, their decision is quite respectable and would only allow them time to fix and make the game a whole lot better.

There are chances that the developers could fix the very same issues that fans have been complaining about. Furthermore, there are chances that the game could come with more modes like many asked.
None of that is confirmed, so take it with a pinch of salt. We can surely expect the game to be a smoother experience. So, till then the community has to maintain some patience.
