Considering 343 tried valiantly to steal COD fans, I want to see how successful they were at doing this.
Are you a veteran of Halo, or did you make the switch?
Veteran. But if 343 continues on this path of mixing CoD with Halo, I won’t be playing for much longer.
been here since day 1, will be here long after most of you are gone.
been here since CE

This. I can’t do it. Halo 4 just feels… Wrong. Like Reach, but… Worse.
You’re asking in the wrong place. Very few people who have switched from COD are going to visit the official Halo forums within a week or two of making the switch. If you really want an answer close the actual amount, play some matchmaking and ask everyone you meet.
Been playing since CE, and I think the community will be like that for awhile, I think Halo is just too hard of a game to make that sudden switch from say COD, both with Halo’s enriched story and the multiplayer.
I like Halo 4 despite its shortcomings and will continue to play the Reclaimer trilogy even if it is…different
I was a CoD veteran before Halo, but i had both. Black Ops 1 was my last CoD game until I saw that MW3 was almost literally just MW2 with new maps so i was just like “-Yoink- THIS” and started playing my copy of Reach more and more. Eventually it just sucked me in. I think it’s the becuase of Reach’s amazing custom game options. Halo 4 doesn’t have the same custom game freedom but I’m sure they’ll get there so I’m staying loyal until they do and not wasting my money on Blops 2
I’ve played Halo since 2 and COD since 4. This game plays nothing like COD, I really don’t understand the comparisons.

Veteran player here. There was no switching or migration to be had here. Despite the flaws that can totally be patched for Halo 4, i don’t find myself paying full price for another COD expansion pack.
Used perhaps but that is later down the road. While Halo 4 does have modern elements, it still plays differently from COD. Now, i think there should be UI elements patched into custom games to allow for the disabling of Sprint and Instant respawning for more competitive settings.
I played the first Halo and Call of Duty and I don’t stick to just one, it get’s real boring.
> been here since day 1, will be here long after most of you are gone.
Been here from the start.
Uh… After the Travesty that was MW3, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are more CoD fans here now.
Played CoD MW (1,2 and 3) and Black ops, but I started with Halo back in CE. The days where your character is incapable of running are over.
Halo gun play has changed very little since Halo 3. You can still do most of the old tricks, the dmr/br/light rifle should all be 4-5 bursts/shots to kill.
People are complaining about parts of the game that don’t directly give you an advantage over another player, aside from some bugs with camo.

Facepalm?. It does not feel like COD, alot of the community is just freaking out because they added loadouts, sprinting, and insta respawn. Because those three features are exclusive to COD, right? Thats what affects the entire flow of the game. Oh wait, it doesn’t.
HALO FTW YEAHHHH HUZZAHH

No, i facepalm you, sir. You’re the one who really needs it at this point. Similar features does not make the gameplay similar, so back the yoink up and stop it with the stubborn idiocy. If you have a complaint, make it, but don’t go to hyperboles if you can’t express it in words.
I find that this “COD” comparison is geting out of hand. Im waiting for someone to claim that gmaes like Skyrim are mad eofr “COD gamers”. This is getting way out of hand. Most gamers know what the standard Halo game is like and what COD is. All i see in Halo 4 is elements that 343 used that have been in other HAlo gamers as well as elements from other games. This is standard acrross all of gaming. WHat gamers like developers will add to there games. I rememebr when Ciffy B was pissy about Fireifhgt and he claimed some Bungie guys must have been camped out in Epic studios stealing there ideas. I hat ethat everyone claims that COD gave the gaming world things that were never in other games expect that COD has used alot from other games. There two differnt games. Two very differnt games
