Title update…really? What a complete joke.
I don’t even have to explain.
My last hope ruined. Thanks for dangling the TU in our faces for months then doing nothing with it.
Thumbs up 343! You REALLY know how to please!
this ‘TU’ was overhyped - its just a bunch of minor bug fixes… meanwhile headless players are still ruining SWAT… JiP still puts you into a losing half over game of Regicide… but you know take your time with those 343 wouldn’t want you to get it wrong.

LOL. Because it’s not already wrong and broken.

but I want you to 
I can tell maturity isn’t your strong suit.
oh wow
just
wow
They have already stated that there will be other fixes taking place. If I am not mistaken, there is going to be another TU focusing on sandbox elements.
You’re a little late, aren’t you OP?

PPFFTT I’ll be amazed if we get that “sandbox TU” in the next 2 months by which point even more people will have given up on this game and moved on to other things (Bioshock Infinite calls me). I enjoy Halo 4 but the lack of a real TU is very, very frustrating.

Yes, OP’s late but that’s not the point. The game was released incomplete and 343i doesn’t really have an excuse. They took a pretty lengthy vacation back in December which shouldn’t have been as lengthy (imo). Sure, it’s a good game at it’s core, but 343 added so much junk on top that most of the experience gets ruined.
It’s not really a matter of “They’ll fix it eventually” but rather “It shouldn’t have been broken to begin with”. Minor bugs are acceptable in a release game, they’re bound to happen; 343 just went overboard with their mistakes. Also, it doesn’t matter if it’s their first game or not, if this wasn’t Halo they wouldn’t be receiving so much criticism. But the thing is, it is Halo (or it’s supposed to be anyways) and as such it’s gotta live up to certain standards, and 343 just didn’t live up to them (or hasn’t, if you want to be optimistic)
Wow OP you are ridiculously ignorant.
1st update is supposed to be minor bug fixes
Then the 2nd update which is the promised and guaranteed sandbox balancing update
will come.
The BS was fixed 1st because I’m pretty sure 343 just got tired of hearing about the complaints about the thing so they decided to do that first.

Yeah only problem is we’ve just had the 2nd TU and the sandbox has not been addressed really - just a slight BS nerf.
the title update was kind of disappointing. I will say that i appreciate the boltshot nerf, but it seems like it can still almost completely take down your shields. I think that it would have been better to add a spread so that it does less damage the farther away you are.
but back on topic. The positive thing about the games state is that they are learning what not to do in halo 5.

The first TU was a minor one. The one we just got was (supposedly) a major TU. The second Major TU will fix Sandbox elements.

Well, the damage from the boltshot now it’s no different from the Plasma Pistol overcharge + melee combo. And well, aside from the DMR, Halo 4 is pretty playable for me now, I like Griffball, Throwdown, etc… and for me the lag isn’t as unbearable. =/
I love all the people saying, “It’s just the first TU, there is another one coming soon that will save the game!”
What happens when that one fails us too?
“Hey guys, they promised a third TU, it’s going to save the game!”
And so on so forth. The way I see it, they had months and pushed out the poor excuse for a TU, more like a minor bug fix. PC games release updates like those weekly. And they do massive TU’s monthly. But it took 343 4 months to do that? I think Halo has been left in poor hands indeed.
I think at this point 343 is starting to give up on this game and are working on Halo 5. They’re just hoping for a sooner release date so they can make more money sooner.
And you know how to complain. My gosh!
