So why bother beating around the bush, I know how we all hate reading long forum posts anyway.
The once glorious franchise we used to love and respect has had some of the lowest peak hours in the history of the game with Halo 4 (including the end of Halo: Reach and my video commentary has proof, but more on that later).
I decided to go through the THC, MLG, Waypoint, and other forum websites and gather all of our valid complaints (not just OMG I HATE JETPACK), and compiled them into one video. Will I accomplish anything? Probably not, but a video commentary where I explain my love for the game and why we are giving the company tough love might make some leeway.
At the very least, I’m trying and I urge everyone else out there to do so as well. Make our voice heard, don’t just lurk in forums. The only way we can revive Halo is by getting the attention of the people that make it!
Bro I hated the game at first glance I played the campaign on Legendary and was mind blown at the graphics and game play. The only thing I was let down on was God Of War Boss Battles on Halo 4 that would of been EPIC. So I went into matchmaking and was chill until I got my 54 then I was so mad I got banned For three days on the forums troll venting. I kept my head up and went at it again full throttle now I’m a rank 94 and I ant stop playing it. Its amazing how it grows on you. I even like it better than halo 2. It seems like just playing and being awesome is a lot more at its core than a rank you gotta bridge connections for. Here is my point If your not having fun Forging or custom gaming or campaigning or getting with a clan or just swatting it up try to invent something new for it. Like red vs blue did.
A) They simply cannot accept/adapt to gameplay within Halo changing, to move a little with the times.
B) They can’t accept any other explanation for Halo not being #1 than the most recent entry being a ‘failure’, which tends to go back to their own personal dissatisfaction with the entry.
Even if it can’t rest the title of Most Played game/shooter from CoD the series will be fine so long as it continues to:
A) Sell
B) Hold a fanbase.
For being on such a decline, it sure is flying off the shelves…exceeding all sales projections. Has the launch been flawless? No but I can assure you there continues to be a market for Halo. Look at the facts. In terms of peak players, there have been some server issues, and now consumers have more choices. It is no longer halo or unreal tournament on xbl. Not the end of the world.
You guys absolutely have to admit that this series is not evolving or progressing in an innovative or even admirable way.
No single fan of this series should be blind to the downgrade Halo 4 has implemented. So many lack of features, locking pointless things like emblems, and removing whole game modes.
There is so saving factor to make up for this. Adding better graphics, a few more weapons, and an arguably good campaign doesn’t make this game any better than it’s predecessors.
Isnt lovely when a single person assumes that his mere personal point of view its what the whole Halo community thinks about Halo 4 and 343i. Poor fool lol
Just to remind you that Halo 4 is the fisrt big project of 343i so that means errors, issues, glithces, problems are part of this process that constantly evolves. Before assuming that Halo is going down check the past… during the Bungie domain Halo experimented endless problems from illegal moddings, glitches, server issues, etc.
I personally hate when people troll about this issue without being aware that isnt the first time this happends.
P.D I´m not including the recent Specializations codes issue because doesnt fits on this thread.
