I know that CU29 hasn't ended yet (Which was originally supposed to be Season 6: Spirit of Fire, but they had to scrap it) and it's weird really. We don't even know when CU30 is going to come out.

But back on topic, CU29 is honestly one of the worst responses to Halo Infinite's content issue since Season 2. CU29 genuinely gives me "The Season 2 content drought" war flashbacks.

But at least there's far more maps and playlists now than their was back in 2022. The other big thing to note about CU29 is that they did away with the battlepass that gave you back the credits that you'd use to buy them, and opted for smaller, shitter 10-20 tier "operation" passes that don't have some credits that you can get back, but sure as shit have double XP boosts- like as if you weren't sitting on 200 of those already.

The only good thing about CU29 is that they added the Mk IV core, which I personally don't care for but I know a lot of people do, and they expanded on cross-core with cross-core shoulders and they made more pre-season 3 coatings cross-core.

Also the majority of the content that WOULD'VE been in the battlepass is currently in the shop. That's nice. Thank you 343. Thank you for giving me the privilege of licking your filthy boots one last time before you cast all of us who supported this game since the beginning to the side to work on your next Halo game that LET'S BE FUCKING HONEST- is going to be just as shit as Halo 4, Halo MCC at launch (and rn), Halo 5, and Halo Infinite. Thanks 343. Maybe your army of rabid zoomer Halo fans who were born in 2010 will support your future endeavors, but I sure as hell wont.
