Population is still below 100k after anniversary ev at peak hours lol.

Just go’s to show nothing can fix reach’s -Yoink- multiplayer not even a update.I lol at this cause reach has been out 1yr and a month and it has this amount of players 56k for reach and 20k anniversary.H2 &3 3yrs after launch had a healthy pop of 150 to 200k people.The only good thing reach had that is better is the better servers.Lot less laggy than previous titles.So if you feel you have reasons why reach is the best one feel free to post them while I lol at them.

Halo reach is number 8 on Xbox’s live top 20, on the week of modern warfare 3. It will probably move up to 6 because of anniversary. If you think halo is dead why do you still post?

Because halo is forever!

Have nothing better to do at the moment just played 6 straight hrs of MW3 somthing I haven’t done since H3

I was playing Reach today. Getting lobbies in under 60 seconds. This game is not dead. To say it was a failiure is laughable.

And if reach was an actual halo game it would be in the top 3 not #8

People that base whether a game is “good” or not solely on current population numbers are blind and ignorant.

True fans of the Story and Legacy of Halo are content. This in my books is a Halo game. If it isn’t for you then i’m sorry to hear that.

Look at the numbers kid compared to older halo titles reach had and still has the lowest population of any halo game.Even MW2 has a bigger pop.

I played it for a year straight just got tired of all the Bs we were promised.I like many others am gonna wait for H4 to launch.

> Because halo is forever!

Reach is no more (cannon) and the way Reach and Halo CEA are/is performing I have serious doubts about the franchises future growth.

I don’t think people are going to assume future Halo games will be good and blindly buy them like they did with prior games.

What do populations have to do with whether a game’s deemed “good”? You never answered that thought.

If you don’t like Reach, don’t play it. Making countless threads complaining about it isn’t doing anyone any good.

The problem is it is not new. So many new games out in the last few weeks. I do think 343 has done a good job with giving the population more options though. I appreciate the effort.

Then tell me good sir why was there 60k players between both games cause no one likes it anymore.

I haven’t played for over a month so don’t have to tell me not to play.

I don’t think it’s fair to speak for an entire group of people who did not really appoint you to…

I’m probably one of the biggest Halo fans there is and still have many issues with Reach. One of which is the storyline.

Are you aware of the multitude of other games that have been released in the past month? Not everyone that owns Halo plays it consistently. I love Halo, but I’ve invested more of my time in other video games recently, as does every other gamer. Again, this doesn’t answer why you claim population deems a game “good” or not.

Actually 60,000 people like the game. I’d say that’s a good amount of people. Enough at least for MS to invest in a studio that sole purpous is to make Halo games.

I appreciate there effort as well but to many it was not good enough I haven’t played for over a month just saying what I heard.

facepalm + shaking my head

I like reach but don’t want another halo like it.It gets boring to quick I used to play H3 for hours on end but with reach and its poor choice of maps got stale after 2 hrs.
