We don't need -blam!- Apps for our phones.They should focus on fixing the god damn game first. Fix it all. Instead of wasting time. That's why I dislike ATLAS. 343 is wasting time on new features that keep being exploited easily and making Reach worse. Custom Challenges? Exploitable. ATLAS? Exploitable beyond all comprehension. The TU? Hardly did enough to make this game any better (/opinion). Fix the game first. Then add new -blam!-. I mean yeah, I guess ATLAS is coo land all but they could have at least tried to anticipate the threat of hackers.
Come on dude. To be fair, the TU was an attempt to fix the game, and they did that before these "exploitable gimmicks".I give them some credit for trying. But there was much more that was desired by the community to be addressed and of course even myself personally. I tried to get their attention and I tried to get the communities help even on the waypoint forums, but it seriously seems like there's no way of getting them to fix anything major. They don't post in their own forums. At least anyone with the ability to make TU changes doesn't anyways from my knowledge.
I never see 343 employees post save for maybe BS angel and some other community leader guy. I got into contact with BS angel and asked them to show the people in charge of the TU a thread I made with a list full of exploits in the game, AFK spots to shut down if possible (which I later found out is impossible), the revenant sniper glitch and Gauss Hog glitch, and several other gameplay issues. BS angel told me in a PM that she sent it over to their matchmaking team to see if they could do anything. I was pleased with this. However, by the time the TU comes out, none of these issues are addressed. Aside from this, we were promised a lot of other stuff over there by 343 too. For example, with the December Playlist TU, we were told by BS angel that the cR cap was going to be raised. I had seen several people including myself, ask the question even via PM "What's the cR cap going to be raised to?" No answer. Then the cap didn't get raised this past week and even more people were confused by this. Then more people had asked BS Angel what went wrong and still no answer.
My point is in my giant wall of text and ranting is basically this. If they have the time to introduce a bunch of new features such as ATLAS and Custom Challenges all of which are already being taken advantage of by the community, then they definitely have the time, people and resources to give this game the massive overhaul it needs to really become the best Halo game to date. That is in terms of multi player. The Campaign is an atrocity which is irreversible. The least they could do is actually get a quick answer or two out to us on their own forums when we ask them politely once in awhile. Sorry but that's why I hate ATLAS at this moment. Because 343 isn't working on key problems with Reach and instead are trying to make a quick buck with an iPhone app that most people will probably not even use mid game with the exception of hackers.
It's a free app, and it probably cost 343 a bunch of money to hire IOS developers or train their people in IOS. Why do you say they're just trying to make a quick buck?
