I mean yes nobody is really playing most of those anymore quite a few people are still playing reach not like it was of course. My opinion and thoughts have always been this if you’re going to shut it down and you’re going to give us a year to do it let’s go out with a big bang. You have obviously made all the money you’re going to make on these games so why not make a public announcement across all forums so everyone and all can see that you will be sharing all of these games down December 31st 2021. Effective immediately you will be opening up all maps all downloads armor Maps everything on these games free to all come in for one last hoorah and say goodbye to the classics in style. I remember being there when you guys shut down the original Xbox brick and we had 72 hours to party our -Yoink- off in style before you shut the servers down for good on that platform and it was glorious people came from far and wide to give it everything they had I played for 72 hours straight with a few breaks of course and it was magnificent. I realize these games have been around for 14 plus years and as a business they have ran their course. I’m sure no one knew that these games would last this long people would still be playing them 10 years later. But why not go out in style? Make the announcement make the adjustments open everything up maps armor Etc effective immediately let the people come and enjoy one last time come for the slaughter come to the Carnage come 4 the Nostalgia come one come all 365 days of bliss. That’s all I have to say about that.
Very thoughtful! I love your ideas and choice of words.
Would the unlocking of all armors, however, illegitimize what people have earned? Making them all available for this reason could diminish the value of Recon & Hayabusa for example.
I know that would be an issue if the games were being played on a regular basis. But I mean they’re going to shut these games down forever the only way you will be able to play them is offline so your rank position title everything you’ve earned is for not. I mean most people don’t care about the old games anymore anyway or their rank title status. I just thought it would be a awesome thing to do to unlock everything since they’re going to shut them down December 31st 2021 that will be a lot of fun to be able to access everything all the old classic maps that we don’t get to play on anymore and have one hell of a year. I can’t think of any better way to say goodbye to these Classics then to be able to access everything bare minimum just access the maps which have nothing to do with rank and let everybody tear -Yoink- across the platform for one year. I for one miss all of the original Maps I love big team Slayer I miss all the original Halo Maps sandbox for one that was awesome. I was just being nostalgic I guess not like that’ll ever happen would be cool though.
