Don’t care if it beats COD, I’m happy As long as it is profitable (which it will be).

O_o you think so? I mean, it’s quite noticeable that cod is suffering a little from the Return of Chief, but in the end, it’s still cod. The sales will blow up sooner or later. Then again, many cod players were Halo fans…

When I mean long run-I don’t mean sales wise. I mean keeping an online audience.
Because a new CoD comes out each year and we have well over a year until Halo 5 comes out along with next-gen.
Wait…I’ve just confused myself-I’m going for a lie down…
Here is something funny. I heard that Black Op 2 move back its release a week back since it was going to come out the same time as Halo 4 because “it could not compete with it”.

I think you’re trying to say that rather then playing the same game for years on end, the average CoD player just plays enough until he starts all over again with “next years model”.
> Here is something funny. I heard that Black Op 2 move back its release a week back since it was going to come out the same time as Halo 4 because “it could not compete with it”.
Is this even true???
I read an article saying the two games are not in direct competition with each-other.

Snaps fingers
That’s what I was trying to say…
I think the only way Halo 4 will sustain a bad online population is if people don’t like the game (Like Reach). But I don’t care because I wasn’t even aware of the low population count after Reach came out. I still played it lots.
So if Halo 4 can sustain a good online population-I needn’t be worried.

I think the only way Halo 4 will sustain a bad online population is if people keep acting like aggressive bigots (Like Reach).

Oh the replayability value. Yeah Halo 4 will last much longer audience wise. I stopped playing mw3 when it came out around the 2 months. The best part about playing it was that I go the game for free, so I had no regrets and eventually went back to Reach lol.

Yeah that’s what I thought.
Nevertheless, I’m gonna play the crap out of Halo 4

Depends if the audience gives as much into it as they can and let other people give in as much as they want themselves. Rather then forcing everybody to only like what they like.
lol really? 2 months? I didn’t even reach the third hour mark.

I stopped playing it when I realized that it was a MW2 add-on.
That was…quite early on…

Yeah, it was just waaayy too similar. Also, the maps were terribad and cluttered. War torn maps 24/7, random cars and just grey.

I once read an interesting complaint (besides the obvious small maps to make encounters faster) that the killtimes of a regular match were as fast as a hardcore match in previous CoD games.
Just goes to show that faster killtimes does not improve a game automatically.

I’ve participated many games with them. they play every gametype. they have a testing night called “Proving Grounds” where you can test your maps and gametypes. and other nights, they play Infection, Knockin’ Zombs, Sangheili Don’t Surf, CTF, Slayer, Race, and many community-made gametypes and maps.
Their “Proving Grounds” has been put onto Waypoint’s News multiple times. testing the gametypes and maps allows you to know if it’s good, then you can either fix them and test them again, or post them onto Waypoint’s Forums.
they have these every Friday at 9 pm EST. just make sure to sign up Thursday to get the invite. I do really suggest playing one of the nights, at least.

These guys do a lot of different and unique stuff, from Infection, to Competitive, to Invasion, to minigames and people just want to get into customs with them no matter what. They’re pretty united and peaceful except for flaming the people who comment “first” on every video
