So, well before nov 6 told you all that this game would fail, and it surely did. Everything that I said on these forums have come true. The population is very low for a halo game, the gameplay has way too much randomness, and in 6 months this game would turn out just like reach. TOLD YOU SO.
And now the final nail has been put in the coffin with the final decision about CSR. For those who think this is a step in the right direction for halo is a complete noob and will surely be disappointed in a month after the release date.
Strong argument, let reply with a stronger one. CSR will save Halo 4.
> Strong argument, let reply with a stronger one. CSR will save Halo 4.
Absolutely not, CSR won’t change the game itself, people didn’t leave because of missing ranks, they left because there are more good games nowadays, and Halo simply didn’t turn out as good as before … at all.
I loved every single title, Reach was awesome IMO, I don’t complain that much about H4 since I think it’s still good at it’s core, but I can absolutely see why people left this game.
The positive thing mightbe that 343 will learn from their mistakes, IMO one of them is to listen TOO MUCH. I think that 343 did almost everything fans wanted post launch, but it didn’t help, they should stick with something and change minimalistic, that’s how EVERYBODY has done it until now, and it didn’t hurt them. They have to grow a pair and deliver in 5, that will be there last chance.
Nothing constructive in this post at all. It’s basically saying ‘I told you so!’.
To be honest mate, If you knew the game was going to flop, why are you on these forums?
Also, calling people a Noob for having a different opinion about the CSR than yours is a stupid argument.
Good day sir.

I can see why people leave too. I have some big problems with Halo 4 too. But no one knows if CSR will do anything or not. It might save it. It might not. You never know.
I think the reason people don’t play Halo 4 is simply because it’s not ‘Halo’.
People just want to play Halo, 343.
And I doubt people are going to all flock back after CSR is introduced.
I still can’t believe what a flop Halo 4 was, I think many of us, including me, really expected this to be the big comeback for Halo.
343i had the full opportunity to take a look at what was wrong with Reach and 3, see what people liked, and didn’t like, and they end up making a game that everyone thinks is terrible.
I’m mind-blown really. Never did I think people would ACTUALLY be ssaying Reach is better that H4

Reach was absolutely horrid IMO, CSR, will indeed bring players back.
“This one is but flesh and faith, and has it’s mind deluded”
I can agree. Halo 4 was designed to try to bring over the modern shooter fans instead of focusing on winning the fans back who left because of reach and keeping the current fan base. Rule 1 of designing a product or advertizing you make it for your fan base because they pay attention to it instead of ignoring the game as people who are not a fan generally do. What 343 did is alienate the 2/3 of their fan base with halo 4 and tailored a game to attract new players that did not want anything to do with halo in the first place(ie COD, MWF, BF .ect die hard fans).
We can predict that unless halo 5’s match making is an arena shooter and has a single player better than halo 2 and CE combined halo 5 probably will be the last halo before Microsoft pulls the money and puts 343 on to a different project or disbands 343 and the only halo game we will see will be the free to play (100% free no micro transactions) halo being made by BVG studios.
On a side note I actually enjoyed BF3 campaign more than halo 4’s.(I picked it up with simcity 5 for free) It was the first time I’d played BF and I actually cared about the characters a lot more than I did with halo 4. Remember halo 2 and 3 when the story telling techniques were top notch well BF3 story telling makes halo look like no effort was put into the story telling at all. (<mark><mark>spoiler</mark></mark> skip to next set of brackets) <mark>Cortana and didact death was nothing compared to the last spoken lines and the last level in BF3.</mark>
(I’m a huge halo fan so it was surprising for me I enjoyed BF3 more and I have not gotten onto the BF match making yet)
While halo 4 did feel like a halo game it missed the mark as it is not an arena shooter, no fantastic music (The halo 4 sound track was fairly average) which is the core of halo take it out and you a generic shooter that on the bottom of the generic shooter list. So where to now? I’m jumping ship to Destiny and possibly BF4. I’ll probably get halo 5 just to see what happens to Chief but if the campaign has another quick time event for a boss fight well I’m not going to be happy.
I think the problem is you’re all too spoiled and forget the days of Halo 1 when we didn’t have all of this rank xbl crap. When we played Halo not for numbers but because we love Halo! If you don’t like Halo anymore fine move along leave the forums because none of us want to hear your 2 cents because that’s what it is 2 cents and your 2 cents are worthless to me.
> 343i failed. Halo 4 is not Halo enough and that’s why people left it for other games, that aren’t Halo as well.
Nobody left the game haha we have the exact same amount of players but it’s rotational. You guys act like Halo is a job that you can get up and leave it’s a game especially since we live in a time where Halo is relatively old and there are a lot more games out there. Even if this game was made to your exact blessing it would be the same way it is right now.
I dont care if the population is low. Too bad for them if they cant tell what a good game is. I like the game.

That’s why I created link at that post - so more people could understand sarcasm.
You haters is why this community is failing. -Yoink- off
I agree completely, I wish they would just leave since they are so unhappy. All they do is hurt the community. Look around, the people who are fixing this game and providing constructive feedback are the people we need in the community, not the -Yoinking!- spoiled brats who -Yoink- every -Yoink!- day. This is getting pathetic!

the difference is Halo CE had a beast story and music to suit even the guns and explosions sounded right, the mutliplayer is crap by todays standards.
i love halo, just not halo 4, story bad, music bad, multiplayer bad even the UI in the multiplayer lobbies is complete rubbish, why didnt they keep the halo UI?
and telling people to leave? wtf is that all about we paid money for this game same as you, we like the franchise, we dont want to see halo die. but it is going too at the rate its going.
