Wow, I guess it’s playlist complaint day today.

OT: You know they will be added sometime in the future, so quit complaining.

It’s too early to get depressed over this… we’ll get more playlists just not at launch.

They shouldn’t have to add this kind of stuff later… its the basic foundations of halo and halo matchmaking. The fact that they would even launch the game without some of this stuff is appalling to me and a lot of other players and fans.

The same stuff happen for the rest of the Halos, this is not any different.

I’m pretty sure Halo Reach, even with all of it’s gameplay flaws, had so much content at launch nobody cared. Anything after that was a bonus. When content is noticeably missing at launch there’s a problem.

Disagree, and would like you to provide proof. With the exception of Reach… which wasn’t part of the main series… Halo 1-3 added things to the game, but changed very little of the core aspects of the game that made the halo experience.

Honestly I don’t care to argue with you. If you don’t like the playlists that are available at launch, then don’t play. Either way, you complaining is not going to do anything at this point.

Just stop complaining about H2 not being on anymore. If you want to play it go play it. If you don’t then stop complaining about it. It’s still an unfair, broken and very laggy game where.

Yes I wanted more playlists with more variety in each but we’ll just have to wait for them to release more playlists. There’s no need to cry about it 4 days before release.

Fair enough. That is my plan anyway… I just had my hopes up that even if matchmaking was awful that I could go play some good old halo in custom games… now I guess I have to go play H3 or get my friends together for a H2 LAN game.

Where in the OP do see my complaining or crying. I stated my opinion and then had a detailed post about my vision of the solution, how about saying something constructive on the forums, instead of just trolling around stirring up the pot and starting arguments with people.

Custom game options.
Lack of weapon choice for the flood. (I have also heard they cant drive vehicles

Wow, thanks for going to the future and finding that out for us.

… I clearly highlighted you crying about getting H2 back on simply because you’re not satisfied with the launch playlists.

The constructive part was me saying that most of the important playlist will be added later on anyway. So there’s no need to start this discussion.

Yeah but it would be so mutch better if the game had it from start. I get that 343i wants players to play their new stuff they added same as Bungie did, but come on give the players on day 1 what they enjoy playing from previously Halo’s.
After all no SWAT, Snipers etc on day 1 is a good way to make players stop playing the game simply because they dont enjoy anything other.

mackan e jag obviously you never played Halo 2. I’m not asking for Halo 2 back because they messed up Halo 4… I ask for it back in almost every post I make. I simply just want to play it online again. Nothing compares.

I did play it and it was horrible online. It’s my opinion and won’t be changed after 8 years.

If H2 have nothing to do with your post then don’t mention it.

Asking a polite, & I think, rhetorical question isn’t crying.

Those playlists should be in the game at launch. The point isn’t that they’ll be added later it’s that it’s very disappointing to not be able to play some of your favourite playlists at launch.

Your opinion is wrong.
