Subject: Halo 3 population increasing?

Halo is dead. Linked tag is permanently banned from XBL

The highest I saw the population post Reach was over 20k which was yesterday, now its over 30k, nearly 40k. Is the population coming back? Have people realized that Reach isn't Halo?

It's the weekend. You'd expect the population to be higher.

Well, all I know is that last week I returned to this old game, and so did alot of my friends who have released black ops and halo reach aren't all there meant to be.

Yesterday I did see the largest amount of players I've seen on Halo 3 since I've returned, 40k players, which is a good number.

This. Plus Reach is getting old to most gamers in my eyes. I still like it. But I haven't played since before the Rank Cap.

When does the dream end? When the dream becomes reality or reality becomes the dream...

I git sick of reach so me and my mates had a blast. guardian old friend, i missed you! halo 3 is a million times better than reach though!

I think it's because it's a free play weekend, Silvers can play all weekend, so it'll be back to normal on Monday :(

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

What Double EXP weekend? There isn't one up for this week.

Agree.
If that was the case how come the COD games hold 4 out of the top 10 positions?
And there you have BO in #1 and MW2 in #2 positions.
(where are the other 2 halo games?)

Reach helped push H3 down to #10 by stealing some of its fans ... but think reach is also feeling the killer blow of games which have more long term play in them.

May 18th is officially halo1399 day. Celebrate the strong relationships forged by the Bungie Community.

There is one correct answer. No.

I recently bought my halo 3 back. Lemme tell you, reach is sooo bad compared to Halo 3.
Halo 3 ftw, gotta stick with teh classics

Most I saw on H3 post-Reach, was 800k=. This was couple of weeks ago on a weekend. IMO Reach wasn't as good as when Halo 3 first came out! Nothing will be...

Halo ain't the same without MC, but Noble 6 is kinda cool.

THE FLOOD IS STILL ALIVE, MC HAS STILL GOT SOME A$$-KICKING TO DO!

They should have realized that after playing Reach. Hell, the main menu just says "REACH" note even Halo lmao.

  • 11.28.2010 4:10 PM PDT

In my dream scenario, Halo 3 will eventually overtake Reach, just like it did for every non-Halo game released after H3... then we can demand another Halo 3 map pack.

Sadly, that probably won't happen. But I'm sure you'll still find matches in Halo 3 for a long time.

Halo 3 didn't go away, and multiplayer is still fun. People will still play Halo 3.

I'm on H3 now, there is 5,700 people online.

Somehow, I don't think it's increasing.
