We literally went from chess to checkers

I never thought a Halo game would make me unsubscribe to xbox live. After receiving a short check yesterday due to my vacation to NY, Microsoft’s auto-renew feature kicked in and because I didn’t have the usual funds in that account at the time, it counted as an overdraft. After that and all the frustration that I have been dealing with concerning Halo 4, I’ve come to the decision that it just isn’t worth it anymore.

Post Halo 3, the only game I seem to enjoy are the ones with single player campaigns. (I still think Halo 4’s campaign was awesome). The ones that deliver a decent story with good gameplay mechanics and offer a pretty good amount of replay value. To me, thats worth a one-time 60 dollar fee, but I refuse to pay damn near $10 a month when dev support is at a bare minimum. And yes, I do give 343 credit that they’re at least doing something now because the months of Nov-February were absolutely ridiculous in terms of dev support and community communication. And I’m well aware of other companies being worse terms of support, but this is supposedly a triple A title. It deserved better. And honestly, it still does.

I do not mean to attack 343 because I really hope they do get their stuff together, but honestly from what we’ve seen, I can’t help but feel like we have a developer that doesn’t quite know how to innovate, and developer that is unbelievably out of touch with certain aspects of it’s community and this is why I cancelled my xbox live service. Also, I realize that they’re other games for the xbox, and I’m really excited about gta V, but this does seem to be a problem with not just 343, but other game devs in general. It’s just that we were used to being on top and Halo Reach and Halo 4 were “a long way from home.”

But what keeps you on xbox live? If it is Halo 4, I won’t flame you for it because I do believe there is fun to be had from it, but to me its just not worth the money.

EDIT: Ignore me, I think I’m an idiot.

You are quite literally, an idiot. And that is not amazing at all.

Why did you have Xbox Live if you only play single player campaigns?

Thats the point. I just canceled the service because now Im only playing single player campaigns.

EDIT: Yes I’m an idiot.

> Thats the point. I just canceled the service because now Im only playing single player campaigns.

Because when you had Xbox Live you did play the multiplayer?

Good. Can we get passed it now or are you literally stuck on the misuse of the word literally?

Yes.

EDIT: Still an idiot.

The only reason you’re being such a nuisance is because you’re bad at Halo and don’t agree with him. Now go practice some, you need it

Great analogy by the OP.

EDIT: Okay I think I’m better now.

Need practice? Oh jeez, that was gold. I was just messing with the other guy, but you? Holy -Yoink-.

See, unlike you, I don’t need practice, because I don’t care about something as pointless as a videogame. Go ahead, practice, be proud of your pointless skill, while I go and do practice things that matter. Do you really think I’m mad about my sub-par skills? Do you really think that everyone cares about this videogame as much as you? You’re sad.

I’d really like to discuss the topic with you and everyone else, but I’m just going to drop it if you insist on being childish.

I love Checkers, but not in my Halo.

Fine, sorry. To be honest, there really is little to discuss. Much of what you said is agreed upon pretty much everywhere, and you’re going to be very hard pressed to find someone with a different opinion.

> I love Checkers, but not in my Halo.

There’s room for checkers in Halo, just not across the board. Sorry for the pun.

I’m sad? Says the guy who is on a video game forum for a game that he doesn’t care about. And you’re a “bronze” so you must be on here quite a lot! For a game you don’t care about. Do you really have nothing better to do than mess with people on forums of a game that you don’t care about? Is “messing” with people on this forum one of you things “that matter”? Lol you’re actually pretty sad
