I'm not making excuses. I never claimed to be good. I have never played any colonel better than me though.

Nope sorry dude they shut the servers down yesterday, we only needed one more signature on the petition too, we could've used you.

Put on your rosy red glasses.

Yeah plenty of people still play it. It isn't actually as dead as people try to make it seem.

I played the other day and there was still 10,000 people playing. This was late at night too, so during the day there could be more then that!

Halo 3 isn't dead, just not as popular as it use to be.

Planning the cosmos for a healthier future.

Social Big Team population is getting quite variable, but I no longer have any confidence in the posted numbers. For one, the variation is just too great -- 30 one night and 772 the next. The number doesn't change but once in 24 hours, so you don't know how many people are playing at any one time. I don't even know why there is a "Population" number anymore. The overall population of Halo 3 is likely shrinking rapidly as the ridiculous matchmaking pits teams of eight 50s against a mix of mid-ranks quite frequently. Who wants to play dead for 15 minutes every 15 games or so?

It's general knowledge the population numbers have been wrong for a long time now. And it put teams of 8 against 8 randoms even when everyone used to play Halo 3, that's nothing new.

Yes, there are many people still playing it. It is a great game and people will be on it until it is shut down.

  • 02.20.2011 8:52 AM PDT

If you can find a match then people are still playing it.

Huh, mis-matched "match-making" -- who came up with that genius idea? My dog could craft more balanced algorithms with little effort.
