(btw, the “typo” in the title isn’t a typo, i needed to make room to fit the whole title.)
keeping a game balanced and absent of mechanics that promote randomness does not mean keeping it the same. halo can change but also keep balance and fairness. but of course, to attract the cod crowd for like a week from the day of it’s release they have decided to go the other route and kill what halo used to be about- fairness, skill, and balance.
people need to understand that in a lot of cases when people complain that something is too random/unfair/unbalanced they are not saying halo shouldn’t change. i don’t want broken shiny bells and whistles and i don’t want the same halo.
of course, i will ultimately reserve final judgement until i play the game, but that doesn’t mean i’m not allowed to speak out about what i don’t think will work. campaign and spartan ops look great, and i’m sure they will do great things with forge and customs, but i have my concerns about multiplayer.
