After Reach comes out in a couple of days, i am afraid that Halo 3 is going to be completely abandoned. I, like many other people, cannot get Reach on the release date. So I have to stick with Halo 3. What I am afraid of is that nobody will play matchmaking. Most likely all of my friends will be playing reach. What do you guys think? Will halo 3 be abandoned?

READ FIRST PLEASE! Please stop sending me Group invitations, it's not that I don't appreciate it it's just not going to work out for me considering the variables, Time zone differences, Mentality, motivation etc, Thank you for your consideration, Rtma Eros Paragon out.

You're exaggerating and with a touch of paranoia, think this through, some might migrate on halo Reach, some will alternate and some will stay on halo 3 so don't fret. *Pats your head*

Dont think of it as abandonment, think of it as a transition to a better, more new updated game, that will be fresh and fun :D

Players are gonna drop like flies the first few weeks but I see no end for Halo 3 until they cut the servers off. Look how long Halo 2 lasted.

There will probaly be a lot of people waiting for their copy of Reach to arrive. I gues they will be playing Halo 3.

Where were you when Reach fell?
Feet First Into Hell

Naturally, the Halo 3 population is going to drastically decrease once Reach launches but I highly doubt it will be completely abandoned until online play is no longer offered. Like others have said, some people simply can't get their hands on a copy of Reach right away and then there will be others who will be too nostalgic or proud to part with the dynasty that they have built on 3 to immediately transition over to Reach just yet.

In my opinion I don't think Bungie will disconnect the server to Halo3, because if you think about it Halo3 Matchmaking and Halo Reach Matchmaking is in two totally different concepts. Like for example: armors are different, guns look different, style of matchmaking is different. I mean do you really think a jet pack is really going to make a difference. Don't get me wrong I think Halo Reach is an awesome game, but all I hear is mostly about Reach is having that jet pack. Ok, cool but all it is good for is being higher in the air, its basically like jumping in the air alot higher. If you realize it, you can just get shot down with a BR or get sniped. I know their is alot of great things about Reach and I myself will soon get it, I am just one of the unfortunate ones that was not able to reserve a copy of Halo Reach. All I am saying is that Halo3 and Halo Reach are two totally different games in their own way. It just I don't see the Halo3 server ever getting disconnected.

Nope. It will certainly lose a lot of players to Reach, but a _lot_ of people will keep on playing. Just look at Modern warfare 1, people never stopped playing that game.

:D happy face

people who dont buy rech will probably still play halo3

Lots of people will go to reach but there will still be lots of people playing halo 3 i will switch between halo 3 and reach just like i did with modern warfare 2 and call of duty 4.
