Subject: Population Decreasing Tonight?

Pioneer and Enthusiast for Halo 3.

It seems like the population have been declining by every game I get out of. It was at 80,000 Players Online, Then dropped VERY quickly to 60,000.

Now it's at 38,000

Whats the lowest you think we'll go?

Boltshot = mini shotgun

Blame MW3 and IW.
They brainwashed their fanboys into buying a game that was practically released two years ago.

This. Ive had multiple arguments with others face-to-face (obviously) that Halo is more of a mature based community than the Modern Warfare community. Dont get me wrong, the Halo community has plenty of little ones running around; but not nearly as much as MW Community. And you are right. Thank god for that. However, we will also lose a great percentage of the mature players. Sad.

People say it will recover later in the week, but Skyrim is around the corner.

It didn't recover much after Gears3.


Skyrim shouldnt be taking too much of our community away. Honestly, maybe a few?

Frank O'Connor said he doesn't think the Halo series needs to be taken in a radical new direction... it just needs to go "deeper"

"Ultimately the core game mechanic and strength of the universe doesn't need to be changed, it just needs to be taken deeper. We want to make Halo games - we don't want to make Call of Duty or Ridge Racer. We want to make Halo games because we understand what's special about Halo."

Do you actually believe in this?

Sory for the off-topic post.

And no, the population won't decrease that much, right now the guys that are keeping Reach alive are the Reach fans that won't most likely buy MW3.

Oh hell no, the whole 2012 thing is a joke. And so was my post.

Skyrim will be the single player game of choice for many, but Reach and other shooters will still be the game of choice for those that like playing online.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."
