Subject: Do you think 343i will ruin Halo?

XBL Gamertag - the elements600

So long as they don't repeat the failings of Reach, I think they'll stay on track.

The reason Reach fell so flat on it's face in my opinion is because it tried too hard to appeal to the same people that play CoD, rather than the people that played Halo 1,2 and 3.

The reason Halo was always so good was because it wasn't the same as CoD. I'm a big CoD fan too, but it's nice to play something that's different.

If 343i can get Halo back to it's glory days, they'll be on to a winner. If they lazily repeat Reach's efforts, it'll certainly be the final nail in the coffin for this fan.

It's going to be pretty hard for 343 to do a worse job than Bungie did with Reach.

I have a lot of faith in 343. Waypoint is cool, Evolutions was amazing, Cryptum was badass, Bloodlines and Bootcamp are great comics.


Indeed. Hopefully 343 won't KILL US like they did with Reach. Seeing Noble Six dying was heartbreaking enough, I don't think I could bear to watch Master Chief or another protagonist go down.

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

You guys really shouldn't say, "They can;t do worse than Reach". That kinda sets things down a premature bad path by putting a lot of hope and pressure on 343 before they've really proved themselves.

Welcome to bungie, you have no rights. play nice!
CLICK!

They gave us a lot of free stuff... And they're nice to me! Angel is the nicest one to me. Other than that,they're doing a good job and they're real halo fans.
There is something that people have to get through their thick skulls.

Halo is not just a game. It's bigger than just games. Get it in your heads, and shush.

I sound so...

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I hope not. From what I've seen I think they'll do better then Bungie. Considering Halo Waypoint and all they do on there. Plus, the Defiant Map Pack was more accurate then the entire Reach campaign.

343 as majority ex-Bungie, no worries.

Should be better than Reach at least

We should know better, because we are better.

343i has made some good stuff so far but until they make a game I will reserve my judgment. They seem to have a good team going for them so I am hopefully.

I hope they do a great job. I have nothing against 343, i hope they make games that dont kill the halo feel.

Jesus loves you! But I think you're a -blam!-

If anything they will put Halo back on it's feet with a running start.

  • 05.29.2011 11:21 PM PDT

Ruin is a very strong word my friend. Change the tittle to "How do you think 343i will do with halo?"

I am the Sharpshooter

Bungie didnt do the best of jobs with Reach. So we can only hope that 343's game will be an improvement. I just hope 343's game has a much better campaign.

Ni, 343i sure got a lot of pressure to deliver a good game, but the few things we've seen so far is pretty promising. They care for cannon (more then Bungie) and has said they want to go back to the core Halo gameplay and expand on it, not borrow gimmics from Crysis or CoD.
I'll have faith in them and will give them a chance :)

Not hating just pointing out that appointing yourself the judge of good taste based on a line from a crappy R&B song, is not the way to go!!

As for the idiot who cant see past his brainwashing, he should definately be set alight!! Lol

Just play the game.

Them: "I'm calm"
You: "u guys r stupid!!1 lol!!!"

Bungie set the bar incredibly low. The have a good chance of not screwing it up.

I was honestly worried about 343i taking over the halo series before Halo Reach was released. However after playing Reach and witnessing the complete lack of Halo support by Bungie, I can honestly say that whatever 343 does, can be any worse than what Bungie has already done to ruin the series.

Not at all. Most of the team that works at 343i now knows a lot about Halo and how to impress the community. I can;t wait to see what they do with the series after Halo 4.

We'll bury our burdens in blood...

I think that they are going and have already done a lot for Halo. One think I'd like to see are some non-FPS halo games. I thought Halo Wars proved the versatile nature of Halo.
