Why are having fun and winning games two seperate options? I have fun winning games.

Because there is a limit to the poll answers

To win.

Is that really all you want to do when you play halo, win? Having fun and ranking up is also fun

Do you even play halo reach?

Having fun shouldn't even be an option. Clearly everyone playing the game is trying to enjoy themselves, why limit the options in your poll?

I have played before, this isn't my gamertag

Tin shacks and catfish bones.

All of the above. There's really no reason why anyone wouldn't vote for all of the above. It's obvious.

I don't know. I would have gotten rid of the poll, but I can't. There has been over fifty votes plus all these comments: this would be a hot topic. Do you know how to get rid of the poll?

Some people just play for ranking up and competing like AFKers who just want credits so they can rank up. I just put that in because people have different opinions

But...

Playing the game consists of all those individual elements. When you play Reach you are doing all of those things.

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

I play for the sheer pleasure of the game. I don't pay any attention to commendations, medals, cR, or stats. I just let them happen on their own. The only thing I care about is if I'm having a good time in each individual game. Doesn't even matter if I win (although I'd prefer it) as long as it's a good challenging match and I don't eat it big time.

Although I do take others into consideration, and only quit if I'm the last player left on my team. That said, I'll even stick around and play 1v4 if the map is small enough and it's keeping a decent pace.

There are many people who just play to earn credits and/or ranks but, I do see your point: all of it is fun!

This is what we need.

for the sake of the people who put work into making this game, i will say all of the above.

however, if your main objective isnt having fun or a good time, youre doing it so wrong...

Winning is how I have fun. I mean, are people actually fine with losing? Yeah, sometimes you have to tip your hat to your opponent if you get crushed, but it's a lie if you say you enjoy it.

To get back on topic:

To have fun.

Since everyone's definition of fun is different, personalized if you will, I shall regale you with the actual reasons.

-Multiplayer adds an entertainment twist that is just not possible otherwise.
-I've joined a group that has all kinds of people, from all over, to interact with.
-I have the choice of how *I* want to play (group, solo, different types)

That's just the tip of the iceberg.

Oh I have a question for all of the people who said "having fun"
I agree, but then "why do some people play ff matchmaking?" For fun or for the credits and commendations.

I like FireFight. It just needs to be more difficult to get through the set. Credits and Commendations would be the main driving force.
