Just a quick post to show my upset at the decision to remove split screen from Halo 5.
343 I understand this was a big decision but fundamentally I feel very let down that a game with so much history and passion for creating a great coop experience has dropped a crucial and distinctive feature of your franchise.
By dropping coop I can never play together with my two brothers and dad without us all going out and buying a console. This is ridiculous and makes me truly sad that you would force your fans to break their backs to buy additional consoles just to enjoy your game.
You will simply see a decline in new users and a decline in the growth of your game.
Halo was the heart of cooperative gaming. I refuse to believe you cannot put coop in a next gen console game when so many other games have succeeded.
Please do the right thing by your fans and start working on either a fix or to incorporate it into your next major halo title game.
There’s a thread for split-screen discussion already.
