I think what South Pole is getting at is that if you take out all the "gimmicky" things the game plays like a straight up shooter, similar to Halo 3. Honestly I don't care what happens to Reach anymore. I just want SOMETHING that will bring me back to xbox. I've only been using it for -blam!- Zombies for the past 5 months...
This post just signified that you're a casual player in Halo: Reach.

I used factual information to prove my thesis.

I'm not expecting anyone to agree with me.

Thing is, he's posting facts, not opinions. MW3, Skyrim and, to a lesser extent, AC:Revelations are going to destroy Reach's population.

This is not arguable, it's fact. This is going to happen, whether you like it or not.

I don't like it, but there's nothing I can do about it.

Funny how we both post similar responses nearly at the same moment.

The evidence does stack up. I'm just saying that he has a pretty good argument but he seems to have a problem with the fact that I am a casual aka a person who doesn't spend their life on the xbox.

Where youre wrong is that reach balances realism with fun. it has bloom for realism and loadouts for fun. plus no matter what you get points to buy sick new armor. reach = the best. it will never go down in population. unless they get rid of the bloom more.

It's already suffered a serious drop because of Gears 3, and MW3 will do the same- but worse.

I don't have a problem with casual players. It's just that casual players sometimes have trouble taking other playing styles into consideration on account that they themselves are only casual players.

You can argue that I have trouble taking casual players into consideration, but considering the current situation, that would not be relevant.

I don't mean to offend, but there are so many points of ignorance in this post that I would waste my time pointing them out.

Please, explain. As you can see, I have already set my logically-interpreted thesis down. You must do the same.

Umm, yep. If you'd read the OP, you'd see that MW2, a TWO-YEAR OLD game is STILL ahead of Reach in terms of population.
Reach's population is low, and there's nothing we can do about it. I'm not saying it's a bad game, I'm saying it's an unpopular game- which it is.

Cool story bro.

Has it resorted to this? I am in laughter...

Edit: You must be HC Lone Wolf (I can tell by specific threads you have posted in). Haven't the moderators scolded you enough?

No it's just a fact.

You're a total suck up.
Please, explain.

Edit: And stop editing your posts. You're not cleaver.

I'm pretty much in agreement. Halo: Reach was particularly weak in a lot of respects in comparison to earlier games. This is coupled with a FPS gaming community that is constantly looking for what it calls 'realism' (The pro-war, 'I'm a bad ass' styled game play) hasn't helped either.

I don't predict the next Halo series will fair that well either, no matter who's working on it or how its made... because it either isn't 'realistic'(Battlefield/Medal of Honor) enough, 'bad ass'(Gears of War, Marcus Fenix) enough or both(general CoD games).

Back in the day when Halo CE came out it had the market on 'realistic' and 'bad ass', it was only a matter of time before developers decided to either focus on one aspect or both to bring Halo to a less successful and more ignored end.

There's no way Nate Hawbaker's favorite hero is Alan Stuart


ALAN IS A BEAUTIFUL MAN!



You've failed to mention BF3.


On topic: I play games for community fun. COD will never deliver that kind of enjoyment to me. Ever. I do not play Halo Reach MM unless I'm with at least three of my friends. Forging and Custom Games are what keep me coming back (Although there are flaws, but then again, every game has them.) I never dug COD after Modern Warfare 1. That's my opinion.



My point is, the people who are die hard halo fans will continue to play until the final Matchmaking game has been served.
