Could 343 have done more damage if they tried?

I was thinking today how they could damage their sales and reputation but I can’t think of anything better than they are currently doing

Actually, yeah, I don’t think they could do anything to top this.

What a shame, the Halo 2 anniversary campaign is such a gem.

If they were trying to screw this, then they would have made the game of the year. Unfortunately they wanted to do it well :frowning:

I guess they could have made a post saying lololol we got your money kthxbai

Nah, not really. Remember, they made Halo 4. That pathetic monstrosity of a Halo game damaged their name and reputation to the fullest extent. This disaster just confirms their laziness and incompetence

Right now they would have to come around and sh*t in my salad to make it any worse

Don’t buy Halo 5 people, knowing 343 and their incompetence, the disc will literally blow up your xbox

No, that’s not the right attitude. The right attitude is to never pre-order a game again. No one should buy it until it’s proved to work and be decent. That way developers can’t get away with everything they’ve been doing this year

Maybe if they added a giant middle finger to the search screen…other than that I don’t know.

They could cut MCC’s online and sell CE, H3 and H4 multiplayer as separate DLCs.

They could pretend that issues are non-existing (ok, they kind of are doing this towards frame rate issues experienced by split screen players…) and just say how excited everyone is because of incoming Halo 5 beta.

They could make patch to the game, include DLCs (as above) and sell for another 60$ as “Halo premium”.

They could turn off Halo 360’s servers to force Halo fans to buy XBone and MCC.

…these are the most evil things I can imagine, but I’m sure possibilities are endless.
