I hate this community

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

Halo used to have a great community. Everybody just played the game for what it was and had fun.

I’m having a blast with Halo 5 but every time I come on these forums and see “I hate 343i” or “I’m done with Halo 5” I literally start to -Yoinking!- despise you guys.

This has got be my worst experience with a Halo game. No, not because of its “Disappointing” campaign. Not because of its lack of social playlists. Not because of Warzones lack of quantity. It’s because of you guys. So yeah, I find this to be even worse then MCC or Halo 4.

Halo 5 is a top notch game, I mean look at other shooters. Black ops 3, Hardline, Destiny and Battlefront. Halo 5 is miles better then those shooters. No, it’s not going to be winning any GOTY awards, but really there is no other shooter on current gen that’s on the same level of quality as Halo 5. (And before you say Fallout 4, its not a true FPS).

As for the BTB complaints, I’m beyond confused to why you guys hate the maps. Over 75% of Reachs maps were all forge made, didn’t see anybody complaining back then. Also how exactly is that lazy? You know how damn long it takes to create forge maps of this scale? Trust me, it’s not just a couple days, it could be weeks.

Ok then, let’s say they were to release actual maps that aren’t forge made. This would probably delay btb even further, as it would take longer to make those maps. People would complain either way.

I had to wait 6 years to finally get Halo 3 because I didn’t have a 360 at the time. I’d just play Halo CE or Halo 2 on my PC. I’ve read pretty much most of the books and comics being a big fan. When I finally got a 360 the first game I got was Halo 3, and a couple months after I got Halo 4 and Reach.

I wanted to be part of this community so bad (Trust me the PC community was REALLY small). Hoping that the future of this series may flourish. MCC brought my hopes down, but once Halo 5 released I was really confused towards the hate it was getting. After think over and over to myself, was this really the community I wanted to be part of?

The campaign wasn’t by any means amazing but not nearly as bad as a Cod, Battlefield or Destiny campaign and sure the playlists may be lacking but didn’t Halo 3 have a similair amount of playlists on launch?

So no, I’m not done with this series yet. Hopefully soon all this hate will diminish.

This series is suffering one of the worst, slow, painful deaths. An ironic death where it’s own fans are killing the series by having unrealistically high expectations and fools blinded by their nostalgia aren’t excepting change in anyway or form.

Don’t hate us; we aren’t all bad. Just the ones whom are having fun are spending most of their time playing the game instead of complaining.

==EDIT==
ODST RANK! YEAH!!

I feel this so much

I agree the community right now is a lot of criticism but that is to be expected not even a month from launch. You must not have been on the forums for any other release because it was the same thing. It’ll definately settle down.

Also there were so many complaints about Reachs maps it wasn’t even funny, the fact that all were just straight from Campaign layouts, then the rest were just forged, so you can’t say that Reach was some golden child that didn’t get hate.

BTW go to any COD or Destiny forum and you’ll see that it’s 10 times as bad as this community.

The only other game community forum I read or participate in is the bungie forum and this forum really does seem considerably more negative than the Destiny forum.

I know there are good people but when ever you look at the forums with the most attention they’re always negative.

Thank you

Why do we have high expectations?

11

Idk. The Bungie forums back in the day seemed to have the same problems: Most people just come here to complain and pretend they hate the game.

I agree, the people who enjoy the game are playing right now. Why even bother coming here? People have been complaining since Halo 3. It’s just that people complain more now because FirstWorldProblems is a sickness.

MCC and Halo 4 did get a lot of hate, so did Reach… BUT I feel this is the largest wave of hate Halo 5’s been getting. The game dropped from 4th most played game to 9th in one damn day and that sucks.

Destiny does get a lot of hate and so does CoD but a lot of the people playing those games aren’t really true fans. There are large amounts of trolls on those posts too. They suffer a similair situation I do suppose, but I don’t think we want this community to be the same.

I wish this game had maps that were straight from Campaign layouts. there were lots of cool places in the campaign to have BTB.

I said unreasonably high expectations… People expected this game to be a gift from God and because that isn’t what we got the games being dubbed “Terrible” or “Garbage”.

What if I want to interact with community? What if I’m not home? It’s bound to happen.

PlatniumHero, go join in with the twitch community at twitch.tv and Halo 5 channel, you’ll have lot more positive experience. Also, maybe TeamBeyond.net where there’s less crying and more constructive topics.

That’s my suggestion. Halo 5 really is a good game but sometimes this forums gives a false sense of negativity. I should remind you that it’s a very small minority of the players.

Thanks for your suggestion. Only problem with twitch is that Halo 5 isn’t really big on twitch.
