Subject: Im sorry to say it, but it must be said.

Bungie,

nothing against you as a game company, but somehow your game has attracted some of the biggest -blam!-s I have ever met in my life.

Sure, your game has interesting people that play it, but it has so many douches that it just ruins it.

I really enjoy competition. If you beat me, sure, you earned it. But having to hear all the lip after the game makes the game incredibly unpleasant and unattractive.

This would be one of the few reasons why I now play GoW3.

Great community, great game, dedicated servers and...


GORE.

Then there are the people who poop in the mash potatoes. Those people get launched out on their asses.

How in the world do you expect Bungie to be responsible for what people say in an online video game?

Also, mute ftw

Why blame the company for getting 'lipped' on by other members of the community? Who cares what they think or say.

And it's money's fault were all rich too huh?

Wow, I play both games, and I'd say the GOW community is a lot worse.

Every age has its idiots. Bungie cannot control which people will buy this game.

Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

Like what was said earlier, use the mute button. Bungie has made it easier and easier to not have to listen to idiots. There's even a mute ban.

But kids want to be cool. Cool like me. Because I'm older - so they're staying for good.

In all seriousness, I really couldn't care for this argument. I was much yonuger than 12 when I started to play Halo, and was 13 when I started playing Live on Halo 2. And perhaps it's my own ego, but I don't happen to see myself as the scourge of the forums and Halo community online.

Perhaps you should be happy that you think idiots congregate to Halo games in majority only. Ignorance is, after all, bliss.

No offense OP, but accusing Bungie of making a game that appeals to "12 year olds and douches" and saying its Bungie's fault that some jerks play their game seems kinda like "12 year old douche" behavior to me.

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

Jerks can be found everywhere.

I have ads for my community. being trolled in the Classified forums, for example.

I wish the whole of humanity was better than angrily whining about video games or just being jerks, but Firefly did end up being cancelled so I lost all hope for our species as a society long ago.

typical response from you.

well, what differences have i seen betweem Gears and Halo?

I've noticed that the game is clean and has a -blam!- ton less bugs. This creates a less tense enviroment due to kids not breaking controllers because a melee didnt register.

Due to a less stressful enviroment, the gamers are happier.

Happy gamers = happy community.

derp.

(getting back on subject)

no gore appeals to the mommies that buy their little bas-turds games. the kid wants a shooter, so give him one that doesnt have some guy getting absolutely obliterated.

Therefore, the game appeals to kids.

I'm inclined to agree. I volunteer to push the OP off his high horse.

Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.

@OP, you really cant blame bungie for your frustrations at there games. Yes its good to give feedback and all but theres no reason to vent. Theres many other options to playing throw out the bungie/halo universe. Find something you like and stick with it if you ask me.

Right over your head eh? Ok.

OT: This really speaks of not much more than the tired old "this game sucks, this game is better" argument spruced up with an irrational "community angle" to try to make it applicable. This really is about the OP not liking some people who play a game, and blaming it on Bungie and telling us he's above them now because he plays some other game.

I'm not sure if I should even let this continue, because "GoW is made better and has no glitches which then somehow makes it so little kids don't like it" is getting pretty off topic for this forum. I guess if you have some other info to add which might be more than you not liking something and thus not liking the community then there might be a discussion to be had. But if this is just about game vs game, I'm going to lock it.

Exactly why I said I'm playing Gears. My friend came over and the more we played Halo Reach, the more we grew disgusted. I already told him I'd never play halo again, but he insisted. After playing for about 2 hours, we both felt inclined to say something about the community.

We didn't quit cuz the game has its bugs. We quit cuz we grew tired of hearing 12 year olds telling us to shut up and screaming about -blam!-, or some mythic kids on their high horse, feeling the need to boast about a victory on a video game.

Gears does have the pricks in the community, but easily 90% of the time, the winners dont talk trash unless you do. Theyre mostly friendly.

But enough. I've made my point and given things to back it. Take my advice and see the amazing results you get, or just overlook it like you do everything else the community is trying to 7ell you.

Bye. Off to play gears.

As said from others above me, use the ingame mute its not that hard to use. I dont think you should quit over alot of 12 year old kids, that may "troll" you, thats unlogical.

This is just a case of not liking to hear the 7ruth.

I don't think I'm above anyone here. But theres no reason Halo can't be as de-bugged as Gears of War. That's all I'm trying to say here.

Change some stuff, fix some stuff, and see how much the community changes. And also watch how much money you rake in.

@ the mods and bungie employees:

Don't believe your community is trash?

Get a one month subscription, make a new account, and try to talk to some people online. Make conversation and see how negative everyone is.

Its quite depressing to see that many angry people to be honest.
