> Its been a downward spiral, in my opinion as far as multiplayer goes. One thing good that is coming out of all this is that 343 is making an effort to change, but unfortunately I’ve always wondered why they have never released a multiplayer beta in order to test out technical issues and player feedback. Bungie has always released a beta. It also does provide them a chance to tack on exclusive beta privileges to new title games players can purchase like Bungie did with Crackdown. I personally didn’t care for Crackdown, but I rationalized it by well its something until I can play beta. I’m at least glad they’re going to have a multiplayer beta for Halo 5, but with this disastrous launch of H2 Anniversary, I can’t help but feel bitter and unwilling to put down more money for a disappointment.

I hear ya. If you look at it this way. We paid sixty dollars for games we already have with a lot of glitches. I do not know why they keep on taking old games and repainting them why don’t they just make a new one from scratch with the same story line. That would be an anniversary making it better not worse. If that’s their get rich quick scheme I have lost all confidence in their company (343). In my opinion they are more movie makers then a gaming company.

They will always admit something is unacceptable after the damage has been done. Because they knew form the beginning what would happen its more of a deadline issue.

204

Don’t blame 343. I bet it is all Microsofts fault. They probably forced this game to released for the holidays to make some extra money. Remember ea and mass effect 3 ending? Yeah it is usually the publisher that has the final say in a games release. I’m going to play pokemon omega ruby while hoping this disaster will end soon. At least nintendo makes sure a game is ready to be released. Sigh…

What are you talking about? I’m 34. Don’t write essays. Just include my experience with this broken game I paid $60 for. My matchmaking doesn’t work (what kind of feedback am I supposed to give) and loading my campaign save freezes the entire game when loading. Something’s seriously wrong here. Bury your head in the sand if you want.

206

Even the waypoint forums don’t work. This company needs to go. I’m sick of the games being played.

The small fix’s are just as important as the the stuff you want fixed. So cool your jets and just be calm they will fix it.

208

i experience a ton of lag in lots of games such as battlefield. but this game lags when battlefield doesnt somethings wrong with that

If you don’t like it then stop playing Halo, It’s that simple dude, don’t trash the legacy of Bungie for they made Halo: Reach and I believe that it was one of the best MP’s out there for Halo. And anyway your complaints are wrongly founded. For one 343 didn’t take over anything Bungie left Halo because they were tired of making Microsoft exclusive games and wanted to expand to multi-console and singed over the rights to Halo when they left, don’t get me wrong I was mad when Bungie left too but I got over it Halo is to damn important to me for me to get mad at people who are doing there best to continue Bungie’s Legacy but also trying to make there own with the game we love so much, Second Halo: CEA was released with Reach MP because I believe 343 was always going to make the Master Chief Collection and wanted to save original MP for MCC, Third Halo 4 was a little buggy in MP but it was still good and Spartan Ops was fricking awesome because if you have read the books it ties in some of what happened with Dr. Halsey and the ex-Spartan Osmen, I had no problem with glitched achievements, for I got about 90% of them, and some of my friends got all of them, the file share and theater mode both worked, I think your just mad because you didn’t know how to use them, I was mad too until I learned to use them right. And four, Stop talking about the MCC like you have nothing better to do, I bet you didn’t know that Halo 2 had its bugs the first time it was released, what with it coming out on the original Xbox and having Xbox live come out right after. So all in all I have the utmost respect, faith and confidence that 343 is doing the right thing and trying to fix the MCC bugs and I’m going to wait and see.
343, I love you guys, keep up the good work.

Did you even read the Halo books? If you did then you would understand why they needed to show Dr. Halsey in Spartan Ops, it wasn’t just the books, I didn’t finish because I had something to do, the game play was good too, I’m a devout Halo fan not just a Halo gamer, Halo is my life, its what is keeping me going because I have a terminal Illness and what your saying deeply hurts me and like I said before, If you don’t like what 343 is doing with Halo, THEN STOP PLAYING THE GAME!!!, please. We halo fans have to stick otherwise what 343 is doing will crumble away to nothing and die, and well I’ll probably go with it. 343, I love you guys, keep up the good work.

It’s your connection with other players I have a problem with lag too sometimes

214

I have enjoyed halo (games and other) for many years now… Everyone complains about halo 4 but I really really enjoyed it!!

However, halo MCC is ruining this for me!! The bugs are awful (I really wanted to replay the story missions, WHY CAN I NOT SAVE DURING A LEVEL?!) and the matchmaking?? What the hell??

Was this game even tested prior to release? I have never been so disappointed with a halo product as this.

please fix all these bugs ASAP, they should have been sorted PRIOR to release!!!

215

When I start the game now it takes 2 solid minutes to load the menu. After every mm game it freezes for the same time before I can do anything. This has only been occurring since my locked achievements popped up yesterday, I’m extremely discouraged

216

I can’t find one damn match to join. I’ve tried several game types, a couple of them sitting searching for players for half an hour/45 minutes but still nothing. I paid 50 odd quid for this game, yes to replay the campaigns but the halo games had some of the best multiplayer I’ve ever experienced in a video game! Im so disappointed with it and feel like I’ve been totally ripped off. They should be charging half the price for half a f*cking game. Also, I’ve made the stupid mistake of buying off the xbox store meaning I cant (don’t think so anyway) be in anyway refunded. Can anyone recommend a specific game type maybe that might work better? Or know anything that might help me fix this problem?

217

Things are balancing slowly, but no where near fast enough. I finally received my achievements yesterday, and they were Glitched since November 11th. It’s a whole mess of problems on Microsoft and 343s end. I can complain but I’m tired of making a scene.

Halo is and was awesome, but I’m losing interest in playing. I have mad respect for the work Bungie put into halos 1-3 and I think they were the truest of the series. Halo 4 was such a disgusting mess, and still is. I havenot interest in playing halo 4 even when it’s included in the MCC. It’s a terrible piece of work, and I am disgusted with the artistic work done on that game. Halo 5 seems to be following in suit with halo 4. What a shame to watch a great series go to waste like this.

It hurts me deeply…

218

I will add this note. Just because 343 took over the Halo franchise, it does not mean that I had or continue to have any angst against them for it. When the takeover occurred back in 2010 I really had no idea of any of it. It wasn’t until 2011 that I had learned of this new company. At that time I wasn’t even worried a bit. When I heard of Halo 4 I was absolutely thrilled. Showed up at the midnight launch and got my copy immediately. I had extreme faith in them… And still sort of do…

What i hate about 343 is the fact they acknowledge the way things were in past halo games. (Not sure what terms to use) Artistically and musically they changed everything about Halo 4. If I can get into depth, the beginning of Halo 4 where the forward unto dawn is first seen. The dawn looks similar, but not the same as the one last seen in halo 3… Moving on… Why would things such as the weaponry seen on the dawn such as the assault rifles, battle rifles and pistols change? The other major change was the armour worn in halo 4… When and why would these things have any time to change between halo 3-4. Endless argument… The problems never end.

343 acknowledged the way things were in previous halo games such as CE anniversary and Halo 2 anniversary. So why would they change what a wart hog looks like? It’s an endless argument that is as old as halo 4. But my main concern is halo 5 and the way the franchise is being handled. How is a company suppose to ship out a game and make it Xbox one worthy when they can’t even fix the problems with the original halo 4, or the issues with the master chief collection?

Personally I don’t see why a company with the rights to Halo would ever need to compete with games like call of duty? Halo stood apart from games like that for a reason. Halo was the up in your face, barebones multiplayer that made a it so amazing. Things like having to run at a set speed, jump, melee and fight for the one sniper on the map. None of this super jumping, auto aim, snap scope fast paced Fischer Price looking crap. I want halo back. I want it so bad, and I know I’m never getting that back.

Thanks for for the Master Chief collection. The 4,500 gamerscore and multiplayer is great. Sick of complaining. That’s all I have to say.

219

I would personally like to say that, yes, I am upset with 343Industries, mainly due to the fact that I grew up playing all these Halo games and loved every moment of it, I made GREAT friends along the way playing this great game and me and my friends were excited to finally relive those good memories we cherished, only to find out how broken the game was…

I can’t even play Matchmaking without the game ending for some unknown reason or the fact I can’t play most, if not all the matchmaking playlists, even then, I went to Campaign and played the hell out of that, that crashed for me to on numerous occasions and even went as far as starting me back from the first level when I was on Delta Halo.

Don’t even get me started on Forge, I’ve been a HUGE fan of it and nothing kills my mood to play TMCC then to find that a “glitch” in the game caused all my maps to be deleted, some maps I invested hours in creating to send in to 343Industries to be put in the broken Matchmaking system…

I would personally love if the DLC came out free because this mess is unforgivable to those who have invested a lot of time into this franchise…

And its not just 343 industries releasing broken games, Assassins Creed Unity and Destiny are prime examples of games released with ton of bugs, or little to no content, the gaming industry is severely disappointing to say the least and I wouldn’t doupt a lot of people will be leaving Halo for good because of this mess.

Asside from ALL that ranting, I don’t hate 343 Industries, they were on the ball on day 1 when problems occurred and I appreciate what they’re doing, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be angry with them for the time being.

220

Problems are still persisting… I’m sick of this crap.
