After playing the most recent multiplayer preview forHalo Infinite, Dr. Disrespect had some comments on how to make the game better. Specifically, he believed that the developers needed to adda proximity chat featureto multiplayer games. After playing a few matches, the Doc said that he felt like something was missing from the experience. According to the streamer, the in-game energy was low and that matches often felt “empty.” He claimed that adding proximity chat would fix the issue as it “creates energy around that particular game that you’re playing in.”
Despite this criticism about the multiplayer preview, the popular streamer had a number of things he liked about the game as well. In particular, he noted that the map designs inHalo Infinitewere solid. According to the Doc, all three maps had a nice feel to them and helped mix up the gameplay. In addition, he admitted that this was still just a preview of the game and decided to withhold judgment until the “entire package” was seen.
Beyond this current multiplayer preview, the developers have planned even more opportunities for players to check out other facets of the game. Next weekend, gamers are getting a chance to dive intoBig Team Battle modefor the first time. With the game still a few months away from release, it will be interesting to see if the developers decide to add this feature suggested by the Doc.
