Honestly go back to Halo Reach. Remember when everyone said Halo Reach sucks and it will get fixed? Remember those few people who said halo reach was good? Halo reach did get some things fixed but was it the greatest halo game ever? Majority says no.
Now look at halo 4
-Same complaining about balances
-Same few people saying Halo 4 is the very best etc etc

DLC. Really? the game is barely out and you prioritize over some maps that most people don’t even like then scam people out and say it was a trial because there was a mistake made? Oh but i don’t blame you, if i was the CO i would pull the same stunt. Everyone loves money. Especially when you lose thousands of dollars and just can’t resist to to let go.

No communication between the players. Honestly how long would it take you to make a thread like " New TU coming soon, here’s what we have in store" 1440 minutes in a day and you guys cant even spare 10 minutes of it.

Join in progress, Nothing put a smile on my face like joining a game and the first thing i see is “Game Over You Lose”
-Connection: Why in the world am i getting put into a game with someone all the way over in brazil with 1 mb upload speed as the host where it is virtually unplayable? Atleast in previous halo games i could choose best connection and have little to no lag. Guess that was too much to ask
-Prioritizing. Smaller companies put 343 to shame. I have bought several game from small time devs. Some of those games include War of the Roses and Chivalry Medieval Warfare. In war of the roses the devs prioritized game balance over anything else. The game got major fixes and weapon balances over the course of time and still continue to do so. We got some Christmas DLC at the end of the year free of charge mind you. That included snow maps and more weapon and armor. Pretty sad how i bought the game for 25 dollars and i get more stuff from them then a company that makes a game cost $60 at release and wants me to buy “map passes” and such. 343 just came in and said " Hey here the new crimson map pack! and some bug fixes cya guys till 2013!"
