What exactly does the stand consist of?
Unfortunately you’re right but I’m looking more for making sure the next game isnt released like this. It’s very sloppy and mismanaged just in an attempt to make some extra early cash and meet up with halo CE’s 20 year anniversary

Preventing games being released in such an incomplete state. Basically things that should be there but aren’t and have better bug testing so they release in their best state to focus on making more money instead of fixing mistakes.

Yes we do, don’t buy or play the game. You guys don’t realize how much power we actually have. If we don’t buy it and don’t play it then the stocks go down and they are forced to make something of substance to please the stockholders

Worst possible gaming release? lol wut? Dude far from it. Perfect release? No, but despite the criticisms this game is getting praised from critics and fans alike. AC Unity had a bad release. Mass Effect Andromeda had a bad release. This game had a pretty fair one. This game seams pretty complete to me. I don’t agree with every decision made, but I don’t regret buying it.
BTW, by “taking a stand” I’m assuming you mean typing angrily at your keyboard you’re sitting behind. You bought the game. You didn’t take a stand for anything. You just have buyer’s remorse.

Cant have buyers remorse if ya didnt buy lol I’m a longstanding advocate of games pass for good reason lol. And no I dont mean typing angry comments behind a keyboard 343 says it’s a collection of halo fans working on the game and if that was true do you think everyone who worked on this game is happy with the way it’s been released I bet you that quite a few of them feel extremely overworked. I truly love halo and currently as a longstanding fan who hasn’t had to work on the game I’m disappointed with everything since reach even mcc had quite a few goodstanding problems now they’ve completely turned it around and havent had a penny given to them for it yet they continue to fix and support it. Mcc has made me happy in every way except for its leveling that seems a bit slow after a few games.
Then we have this our multiplayer is basically the last flight they released and is still buggy/missing core components like game modes and our customization that’s to be added at a later date same with the game modes.
Campaign is good I fall off the damn map too much but that’s the dangers of exploring for secrets. But missing coop and level select is like a crime against the series both of those features launched with the original and were staples of the series with 3 and reach allowing 4 player coop instead of the normal 2 which we were pushed right back to with halo 4 and given 4 player back in 5. Those are the incomplete things I’m referring to and how I say this game has been launched in a very incomplete state and that’s what I want to take a stand against. Hell even cod and battlefield shouldn’t have been released as buggy as they are so that’s where I put the bug testing needs to be further. Theres still bugs in infinite though minor at the moment time will tell how many campaign has or will have with all the content they will be adding
You vote with your wallet. Don’t buy the battlepass, don’t buy the campaign, and for the love of god do NOT spend any money on the in game store.
Hell even better, just don’t play the game. Only way to get big companies to listen is to stop supporting them and voice your concerns.
Can’t believe people really defend this Game… Small campaign, can’t Replay missions (like any other Halo), did not come with Co-op at launch (like any other Halo (Before 5)), does not have Forge, multiplayer has changed to the Fremium Style.
Announcing that key features are not going to be available bat launch does not make it right…
And people Say: “but multiplayer is free”. Man, if You are charging me $60 bucks for just the campaign, a short campaign (which take 3 hours to complete), multiplayer is not free.
If the price was lower, then yes, multiplayer would have been free. Every other $60 Halo came with: campaign, co-op, Forge, multiplayer, and a way to earn your gear in-game.
This Game is incomplete and was not created with the fans in mind… But yeah, it looks super good. Let’s settle for that. LoL

Yeah but we have zero leverage
I kind of agree, and kind of don’t. If the outrage hits fever pitch, we can shift opinion enough to meme the game’s poor quality, but like Battlefront 2, it permanently damaged the game’s reputation and it’s player counts never recovered.
We do supply them the money, but then…what? We cut a bunch of the profit out and they STILL have to release the features that are delayed when they’re ready? It just doesn’t seem that tactically useful in this instance, especially taking into account Schreier’s report on internal development.
How do you suppose we do that?
Because they literally added a year’s worth of development and we still got what we got. Granted the gameplay is great, but you guys need to embrace the horror that this launch was unavoidable. Bad studio management and bad ideas. And that’s after you guys successfully got them to delay it. These issues weren’t ‘dev time’ related, particularly MP which was very likely ready for beta last year.
343 just wasted their last chance. Bye bye halo, see ya in 10 years, with a new studio and a real reboot.

Bye bye you won’t be missed.
Is right,the game is brilliant,can’t believe how fast 3 hours went as I was enjoying it so much.
lol same, didn’t buy any Halo past 4, I don’t get what’s so hard about making these games, they’ve been speaking as if the perfect games don’t already exist.
Literally add sprint to Halo 3 with all new graphics and maps with the old ones re-imagined, chuck in the DMR (even tho I hate it) and people will be fizzing, it’s not difficult and pretty bad look reading the statement they gave.
Glad I didn’t pay for it - just going to watch the cut scenes on youtube.
What I find unacceptable
1.- That the campaign “Does not have graphics comparable to LAST of us 2 or Resident evil 8”. It makes me a SHAME that 343 being able to use the unreal engine 5.0 they made their own engine and see the game looks like 2015
2.- That the MULTIPLAYER does not look like “BATTLEFIELD V”
Do we bring our own pitchforks and masks or are you supplying them?
I mean it isn’t even me taking a stand I’m just not gonna be playing multiplayer untill they fix the desync and broken melee. It’s just unplayable in it’s current state nothing kills a competitive game faster for me then broken hit detection.

Well I tell you a secret man… COOP & FORGE were adviced way ahead that it will be added later
We could have play MP part a month earlier. And MP part only had bad monetization approach.
So where is the missing content man?
- Lack of custom playlist in MP part yeah that hurts and will be added soon
- replay missions in Campagin, yup I would like to see that too, but will be added later
On the other hand we got really fun experience MP game…
Thats a terrible state really to mount up and go rioting…
What is wrong with you people?
If you allow me an opinion, I would like to clarify a couple of things. The strategy of how the game is going to be sold has nothing to do with the designers, developers, etc. that belongs to a higher level, it is decided by those who put the money and want benefits as quickly as possible. Surely if you ask programmers, designers etc. They will tell you that the game is a year or more away, but the bosses will not take that and will be next to your ear constantly repeating … how long is it to finish? How much left? How much left? You have to get it out now! You already make a patch later! … and that’s why things come out unfinished. And that’s the world of app development, guys. I know it.
