I really don’t see it happening. Microsoft is a brutally effective business. They must see that the population is abysmal. And they own 343i, so they would be taking a hit directly if they put the money into releasing a TU.
We have heard nothing from anyone to indicate otherwise.
If 343/Microsoft doesn’t release an update, then it proves that they are not listening to player complaints and they will lose supporters, which in the long run will be worse than spending money for an update
But im pretty sure Microsoft own the rights to Halo right? Plus its their golden child, the series that defines their console. I dont think they will let it die without a fight.
Whether 343 is being as vocal as we’d like them to be or not, I feel pretty confident there WILL be a title update. We just have to wait and see just how big of an impact it will have.
Here a question dose Microsoft have to pay its self to update a game that they own? I know other companies have to pay and get it ok’d by Microsoft but dose a Microsoft company have to go through the same BS?
I don’t know but I would imagine it dose not so we will get a TU quick and it will probably be big but that’s my guess.
bottom line :
MS wants us to buy the map packs.
if 343i don’t fix their game, then people will get bored of it and will not buy the maps and MS will lose money.
Just so you all know, if they release a TU, it will be TU2 as they already released one on launch day that contained fixes/changes that they made in the time from when the game went gold to release.
The population is not abysmal and the game hasn’t even been out for a month so I doubt there would be a update so early. I see a Title update around January with Ranks.
Honestly, they have already said a title update will be implemented no matter what and they are taking a different approach to halo 4 and their updates will not only fix bugs but add content. They have said this is going to happen and fits together with their idea of the game evolving and continuing well into halo 5. Remember not to confuse your opinions with factual information.
