I feel that the response to the game on the forums is amazing but their quite naive at the same time. There are many great points being brought up about the game and it’s flaws but we’re expecting too much right now.
343i is quite new and only a few members have worked on the previous Halos. They won’t have the same response time with patches like big name companies like EA (like BF3 multiplayer launch problems).
Just please give them some time, this doesn’t mean stop the CONSTRUCTIVE criticism but let them have a chance to look to see what is wrong, how to fix it, make the patch, and then finally let microsoft put it out. With all these factors, especially the last one, I expect a patch within the next couple of weeks. (Especially for a better infection custom gametype, we need that badly to bring back some of H3’s custom game dominance).
