And that statement is one of the most ignorant I’ve ever read. The game play of Halo 5 is not Halo? I think you’d best read the title of the game to yourself a couple of times and let what you’re saying sink in.

In case you didn’t know, Halo 5 is an Xbox exclusive, so the best it can possibly do is to be the most popular on Xbox Live. So there’s room for improvement, but being in the top is still good. It has a higher population than the vast majority of Xbox titles. Do you understand so far?

Second, within an hour time span (I only play for an hour) I barely scrounge up enough points to afford a silver req. So I can grind forever to make enough points to get a higher req and still get -Yoink- weapons. This is why I stopped playing multiplayer.

We want a return to the feeling of the old days and less competitive, more casual play. It’s a video game for crying out loud, not a major league sport.

I have never once, nor will I ever, complain about Halo Reach or Halo 4. I loved both of those at launch and miss the gameplay of them.

> As for less competitive… haven’t you played the old Halos? They were all competitive. What people like you don’t seem to be able to grasp is that for every easy game you have, someone else has a hard game. For every kill you get, someone else dies. Halo will always be competitive because people want to win.
Yes, but they are catering to this stupid new Esports crap. Video games are NOT a major league sport and they never will be. Major League sports are things where people get outside and actually play the sport. Baseball, Football, Soccer, etc.
