The worst fanbase I have ever seen....

Games Other Halo
1

But that is the modern gamer generation for you. The moment one thing changes with their precious game series it’s automatically bad. Oh and let’s not forget any other game is absolute garbage.

Hey I know let’s make 200+ hate threads about a game that isn’t even released based on what we’ve read and now what we have experienced first hand, because god know reading something and seeing something is the same thing, I totally forgot there were dragons in the real world,guess I missed it.

Oh no they borrowed something from another game. Boohoo…what if it makes the game better.

Oh no they changed the name of matchmaking. It’s still basically the same thing. So what if people drop in and out, if people were half the hard core gamers they said they were then there wouldn’t be a problem with this, but in the end most gamers are sore -Yoink- losers who rage quit when things don’t go their way.

Oh no it’s becoming too much like CoD. Umm…ok so you can buy your abilities? big deal? do you die from 3 bullets? No…then what the hell is the problem…Oh I know it’s the fact the it’s “NOT HALO”.

Why not? If it is balanced and work well what would be the problem…the problem is that most Halo fans here are ignorant…why change something when the classic was good?

Well because otherwise it gets stale and repetitive and then it will truly be like CoD. I would rather Halo change completely than stay the same several games over.

If they’re complaining about what they care about, isn’t it a good fanbase?

I agree, and I don’t like the complaining either, but seriously.

You must not have been on bungie.net for Halo 3’s drop. Or ODST’s. Or Reach’s.

While this post is filled with really, really good reasons on why these changes are fine, i am sorry to inform you that you will want a flame suit. The way you posted things was a direct attack on the community. Even members that agree with you will not on this thread due to the manner in which you say things.

This is actually a really intellegent post. Unfortunatly, the way it was put forward was not. Please think about this in future threads my friend. Respect is key.

People just didn’t expect what they read in the GI issue. Over time they will calm down and might even accept it. I don’t like some of the things I have read, but I’ll wait until I see more info/gameplay before I set in stone my decision.

I agree, the majority of this forum just showed their true side. They havent even played the game, or seen more than 3 minutes of gameplay and yet they make these accusations. It really is sad.

Oh I was…Every game a new complaint. I even remember when people were saying Halo 3 was going to suck because of equipment. Oh those days…

As bad as Halo’s community is, the BSN is much worse.

It’s gotten bad enough that I don’t even lurk over there anymore.

It’s not that we don’t like change, we just don’t like being kept in the dark and drip-fed small pieces of information that suggest NEGATIVE change. We want Halo 4 to feel like Halo and play like Halo, we would like something new in the mix but only if it contributes positively to the experience and stays true to the Halo feeling.

People complain because they are passionate about Halo, which is a testament to how good a franchise it is, and because they are worried.

Thanks for generalizing.

Whatever dude. Battlefield is complaining about the CoDification of their franchise too. Legitimate halo fans are having legitimate concerns here. Don’t act all high and mighty.

This. It was the exact same but still I think it’s getting worse.

this, those boards were dark and scary places during launch

That the thing. They have absolutely no patience whatsoever.
Plus, they are passionate to see it to return to Halo 3 which was good, but the thing is that was then. All I ever damn see is “Oh I wantz my 1-50 systems back” or something that has to do with it.

Hell I have seen complaints about the fact the chiefs armor has changed for christ sake.

That’s just the way it goes. Change is scary. Just because people aren’t thrilled about the rumored “enhancements” doesn’t make them any less or worse Halo fans than you.

Or Halo 2’s. For all the worship that game gets now, it was HATED during its drop and the while following.

Ha that is hilarious. I can hardly distinguish between BF and CoD their gameplay styles are far too similar. I don’t remember seeing someone die with three bullets in the gameplay there Halo 4 bro. As for the dropping in and out of games and buying your equipment…again if it’s balanced what would be the problem?

I remember those days…I need to find those old posts.

I know you’re exaggerating for the effect of winning an argument against someone with valid points and all. But that was absolutely illogical. Confirmed data is not to be compared to that of mythology.

What if we like halo for what it is and would play said other game if that was what we wanted. I don’t play halo for the sci-fi skin. I played halo 1-3 for its game mechanics and skill gap.

Joining a game mid session gets rid of all of seriousness in competition that drove you to win in previous halo games. When you play cod you play like a -Yoink- to try to get good K/D because winning the game is absolutely worthless. With no incentive to win you quit out of games. When you quit out of games another person is thrown in to (the vast majority of the time) a losing team. This also encourages quitting for childish reasons by removing any penalties or rewards.

> Oh no it’s becoming too much like CoD. Umm…ok so you can buy your abilities? big deal? do you die from 3 bullets? No…then what the hell is the problem…Oh I know it’s the fact the it’s “NOT HALO”.

It’s not exactly like cod, but its obviously moving in the direction. And this direction isn’t the correct direction for halo. If we wanted to play cod we would be playing cod. There is a reason that the xbox is the standard household gaming device. That reason is halo, you can try to deny it but the xbox became what it is today specifically because of the gameplay that halo provided at one time.

I’m going to have such a hard time responding to this without my head blowing clear off my neck so i’ll just say this… BALANCED???

> Well because otherwise it gets stale and repetitive and then it will truly be like CoD. I would rather Halo change completely than stay the same several games over.

And that’s the difference. I want a new halo game. You want a new game.
