Winning or losing doesn't really matter much to me. I play for fun, and nothing you can say will change that. Sure, I have a low K/D, sure, I have a low rank in Halo 3, but I really don't care. It's not like it actually means anything. It's a number. And for the record, opinion and fact are two completely different things.

I buy Halo for the campaign. I prefer the campaign to multiplayer. Multiplayer is only fun splitscreen.

Bungie, will the first release of Reach info coming in November I just wanted to say this:

Your game does not sell for its campaign. The success of the halo franchise is built off its multiplayer. Reach's main focus should be on the multiplayer, as it has a greater replay value than any campaign.

Essentially work on the multiplayer not the campaign. Best put by Cursed Lemon,"Nobody buys halo for the campaign."


Are you kidding me? if you don't want a story plot why don't you go play left for dead or pacman?

the halo story is crucial to it's success, notice how great halo CE did with only LAN?

I've said it before, I'll say it again...

The campaign MADE Halo. Without the campaign, Halo is finished. Without a story, Halo is like all those other crap in the market.

Same.... I won't be coming back if they make a horrible campaign and like the rest is multi player that I'm gonna get completely owned at by people with robotic aim... or as others call it the gift... yes I know that practice makes perfect but I dunno I got bored of Halo 3 multiplayer after a while... campaign is what I prefer with good coop... I would love to see like 8 - 16 player coop would be fun...

Halo 3: ODST = $30

Both campaign and multiplayer sell Halo. Neither can be sold alone. Period.

you are a freakin idiot!!! you do realize that most people buy halo for the campaign right?? multiplayer is good, but the campaign is the most important part. bungie should do the exact opposite of what you have suggested!

I buy it for campaign. Multiplayer is a secondary thing for me. They should focus on both :D

Does anyone even read these?

Focusing on Multiplayer shouldn't be a reason to diminish campaign to a lower level. I would much prefer a game with an extremely long and hard campaign than a game purely for multiplayer.

I just wasted a few seconds of your life and you're never getting them back!

That...is one of the stupidest statements i've heard about Halo. If no one liked campaign, we'd all trade in our Halo 3 since we already have the mythic disk.

Sure.

Ok, people who are good at halo buy it for the multiplayer.

MP is of greater importance to the halo franchise than campaign, by far.

You're an idiot.

Ok, people who are good at halo buy it for the multiplayer. More playing time goes into mp than campaign. People actually care about the multiplayer, every little trick is exploited, from wall glitches to amazing jumps and strats. There's nothing like that coming from the campaign playing community.

I play more time playing Multiplayer because it has higher replay value. But, the campaign is the more enjoyable part of the halo series for me. And also, there are a lot of glitches in campaign, but they don't matter as much as the ones in multiplayer. The brutes don't care if you can be on a ledge on the wall.

More bad kids? Seriously, I understand why you defend campaign so hard, because you all SUCK at halo.

O RLY
I like my first account more.
And you haven't even play Halo 3 online. Probably because you changed your tag, but, I'm still going to use that against you.

halo's campaign is what sets it apart from other games. in fact, halo wouldn't exist without a good campaign. and if you haven't noticed, they have just as many if not more campaign tricks than multiplayer ones. and also, have you ever looked at people's service records b4 playing a game? if you'll notice, that if you have rank 10-20's who have beaten the campaign on legendary, even though lower in rank, BEAT the rank 50's who have NEVER played the campaign. so don't say the "good players" buy it for multiplayer, because that is bull.
