When Halo 4 is released, a lot have been saying “let the others die” and I can understand why, at least for the multiplayer. When Halo 4 is released multiplayer in Halo 3 becomes nearly obsolete, BUT the custom games should always still be there. Halo 3 and Halo reach both had some AMAZING times in custom games. I was never a fan of matchmaking, especially not in Halo 3. All that Halo wars has is online, theres no “custom games” (there are private games but not the same) and for me, I love Halo wars. It was quite possibly the best RTS I’ve ever played on a console.
When Halo wars was first released, I saw the same thing over and over again, some guy that didn’t understand what Halo wars was at all bought the game, hopped on multiplayer first thing and said “WTF IS THIS!!! WHAT DO I DO!!! THIS IS SO GAY!!!” and they would soon after rage quit. I can’t believe they couldn’t read the back of the case or even watch a single video on it.
Halo wars needs to keep it’s matchmaking, and a sequel would be my dream, but it will never happen, Halo 3 needs to keep it’s custom games FOREVER and it’s matchmaking for another 2 years at least, Halo: Reach is still a pretty fresh game, It needs to keep it’s custom games and firefight/campaign matchmaking FOREVER and it’s regular matchmaking for another 4 years.
The worst game company EVER (and trust me, this IS official) is EA, EA requires online passes for all it’s games, It’s just greed, and EA shut’s it’s game servers down SOON SOON SOON after release. I hate EA with a passion, and I’m glad that theres companies like Bungie and 343.
