xQc expects Halo Infinite to have a rigid meta

As aforementioned, Halo Infinite will arguably have the most flexible multiplayer mode in the entire series. From vehicles to weapons, every aspect of the game’s combat can be amended according to a player’s choice.

At first glance, a wide range of customization options look great. However, xQc believes that in the longer run, the meta narrows down to just one or two strategies. This is primarily because everyone opts to rely on the prominent strategies instead of risking their success by using their own tactics.

“I just feel like, when there’s so many options, and so many crazy things, usually things settle to metas that are super hard. Everybody does one thing. Surprisingly enough, when there’s so many options, everybody does like one or two options, and there’s like this hard meta in competitive. That’s usually what ends up happening.”

Should Halo Infinite be free-to-play?

Soon after praising Halo Infinite’s multiplayer mechanics, xQc discovered that the game is free-to-play. To the streamer’s surprise, some people in his chat were against the decision, and even called the developers greedy.

As expected, xQc bashed such fans by explaining the importance of micro-transactions in F2P titles. They are the only way for the developers to earn, and games like Fortnite and Warzone are the perfect example of it.
