I guess maybe you could grow a brain too. But that’s expecting too much.

I agree, also if 343 stopped making changes just for the sake of changes, horrible modeling design and horrible script and more. So until 343 fixes this, I will hate their horrible work on Halo. (Which is not gonna happen.)
so basically you want halo to become crysis… well crysis 3 just came out go out and buy it
I find it ironic that the op was fine with halo 2 despite the huge HUGE changes it made from ce, and then hated halo 3 when it basically brought everything from halo 2 back save for most of the maps (besides zanzibar and midship). But hey, thats his opinion and I respect it.
Anyhow, halo 4 to me feels like a downgrade of halo 3, and a very similar if not same version of reach. I liked halo 3, and even odst despite its limits, but for all reach offered, it changed way too much with the halo formula. Then halo 4 comes along and tries to build off that failed attempt to change the game. I basically blame reach for shooting halo in the foot, and halo 4 for shooting it in the other foot.
I agree that there are a ton of 100% pure hate threads that have no backing or reasoning for their arguments (thats basically the first thing I did when I came on here). But there are also plenty of other disatisfied fans here who have real concerns about where the franchise is going, even talking about leaving the series or trying to go back to Bungie with Destiny if things dont get better. These people usually make very well thought out and mature posts. Even if you dont agree with them, they love halo just as much as you do, but just in a different way.
@OP
Halo 4 isn’t necessarily bad; it’s alright, but it IS riddled with problems, mainly with the removal of game modes, custom game options, elites, firefight, fine tuning in forge…And rotating playlists are pointless.
By the way, HALO 3 IS THE BEST GAME IN THE FRACHISE, SO YOU BEST NOT HATE ON IT
> Let me get this out of the way. <mark>Halo 4 is a great game.</mark> I love it and I am getting annoyed with people acting like it is a bad game riddled with problems.

> I started playing Halo back on the original xbox. I loved Halo CE it was an absolutely amazing game, then came Halo 2. What can I say about Halo 2. It was and to this day still is my all time favorite shooter. I don’t think ANY game will leave as major an impact on my life as Halo 2 did. I played that game online constantly from it’s release in November until Halo 3 and I still look back with nothing but fond memories of the best gaming experience of my life!

> Then Halo 3 came…I waited up till midnight to get my hands on the follow up to my favoirte game of all time. I HATED it. I was so dissapointed. I tried playing it in fact I played well over a year but never started liking it. Looking back I’m sad I wasted so much time on that game when I didn’t even like it. I would constantly pop in my Halo 2 disc because 3 just wasn’t fun. It was slow, unfair, boring, broken, nothing worked right a complete downgrade of 2 and it was the sequel. I couldn’t enjoy 2 the same however as almost noone played. I ended up selling my Xbox 360 as I bought it for Halo 3 and ended up hating it.

> I ended up playing Reach when it came out at a friend’s house and it was even worse than 3! I thought if it was good I’d play again but after 2 horrible games I was fed up I was done with Halo.

> Until I heard Halo 4 was being done by another company. I was interested. Bungie may have made my favorite shooter of all time but they also ruined it and I had lost faith in them to bring it back because they thought it was moving in a good direction. I thought maybe this new company can return Halo to it’s former glory and bring back the magic and fun of Halo 2. I watched every video and read every article about Halo 4 loving everything I saw. I felt that HAlo was heading back in the right direction and that the fun would once again be back. I bought a new xbox in the summer so when Halo 4 came out I’d be ready. I waited up till midnight for my copy. The verdict? I LOVED IT! I felt like I was playing Halo again! The thrill and excitement I hadn’t felt for so long came back! 343i fixed Bungie’s mistakes. HAlo 4 was beter than I hoped and I am having so much fun! It hurts me to see all this hate for such a well made game that is so fun!

> And while 2 is still my favorite shooter of all time Halo 4 is a HUGE step in the right direction and the most fun I’ve had in a long time. Not only is the multiplayer my second favorite in the series after 2 the story was my favorite in the whole series!

> Keep up the good work 343i and don’t listen to the haters!
Stopped reading there.
To add, people do kinda hate on Halo 4 too much (and Reach wasn’t ALL that bad :/).
Sorry but when a company makes a crap game I’m going to let them know. Maybe if enough people voice how crappy their game is they might make it better.
