And why not? Do you like halo being inferior to CoD?
It's funny because Halo isn't.

"Woman lie, men lie, numbers dont lie"

>Must be talking about the population numbers


lol


And what els determins a games success hmm? CoD far and away beats halo in terms of popularity. I dont recall ANY halo maintaining a steady 600k population during normal hours. Iv seen it as high as 800k. And hell thats just on xbox.

I love halo dont get me wrong but its foolish and frankly idiotic to call something better that quite simply, isnt.

Despite Reach being the worst Halo game to date, it is still superior in terms of gameplay to any CoD.

Population numbers really only show what game has become "mainstream" not how good of a game it is. CoD has become so popular because it's a pick-up-and-play game.

You know what could massively improve Halo games sold numbers?

Put pictures of hot girls everywhere!

Have we actually made the game more fun? No

But people will play it anyway.

I might have actually read this if there were paragraphs. But I'm assuming that you're mad because quit bans make it so that you can't play.

And that game becomes mainstream by being a worse game?

I'll agree to disagree. I feel a far greater satisfaction playing CoD then i do halo do to its quicker pace and, as you said, its pick-up-and-play style. Its graphics are WAY smoother, its ADS style of combat is much more interactive, and it requiers a greater degree of attention as to not get your ass quickly killed.

Ill agree that halo may be a bit more competative in that its a lot more friendly to 1v1 combat and shows who can maintain their abilities for a greater length of time. Other then that, CoD is just better IMO.

And as for halo being unique in each game where as CoD is not, thats because CoD is based off real life environments. Halo is sci-fi, you can make up whatever BS you want.

CoD sells so much because it is easy as hell.

Players get to respawn behind the person that just killed them and it only takes a fraction of a second to die to most of the guns.

The reason people play is because of it ease of use.

They can sit down with no experience in any FPS of any kind and get a bunch of kills. Then the game tells them how awesome they are for playing that annoying guitar sound every 30 seconds.


If Halo was even attempting to appeal to these idiots I would want to distance myself from it.


Of course that doesn't mean that Halo isn't also mainstream. It just isn't presently as mind numbingly easy and stupid.

As sci-fi as Halo is, it's definitely one of the more realistic sci-fi universes.

This actually happend to me quite a few times today in reach, being respawned on and being the respawny.

According to you hard core players, isnt that what bloom and AA's are for?

Yes i have never disagreed that halo takes more skill to be good at. But that very fact is probubly why its not as successful as CoD.

I bet you anything activision is glad they arnt bungie right now.

The funniest part about his is that I have.

I enjoy Reach the least. I bash it and it's dumb mechanics openly on the forum. I also insult the people who say they like it and then show that they are idiots.

Sometime in the next few days, tomorrow maybe, I will have a giant super post saying exactly why Reach sucks.

Quit ban is a great idea and should be harsher. You kids need to stop quitting and ruining my games.

  • 02.24.2012 4:39 AM PDT

And so God called Moses to come forth but he came fifth and was therefore disqualified.

Agree. However, I think that the quit ban should also be based on how well you are doing. If you are +28, harsh quit ban. If you are -143 against a full team, much, much lighter. Also, it would be nice if they could detect lag-outs.

why didn't you just keep your little -blam!- mouth shut? i dont know if you realize this but you at that point in time came up with the worst idea to ever be in not only a halo game but in all video games in general. in fact that may be the worst idea in the history of the human race. it does nothing and i mean nothing but annoy people. and you know what instead of putting in a horrible quit ban system as a complete cop out why didn't you have the decency to actually make the game worthy of not quitting. their are countless things wrong with this game in general that people mention all the time and NOTHING is done about it.yeah sure their was a TU but that wasn't perfect in fact a lot of people actually hate the game MORE now which defeats the purpose of the TU. im not trying to completely bash on reach becuase it is my most played game, but its just that i feel like their could have been more effort on everyone involved with this game. i mean especially with the ranked system i have experienced way to many completly uneven matches in arena. in fact social slayer to me has more balanced teams than arena which is complete horse -blam!-. arena needs to be stricter in its ranking. everything should count towards your rank. everything from kills to assists to medals to wins and losses to deaths to games finished and to objectives caught and to objectives stopped. i mean yeah it may take longer to find a match, but i would rather wait forever for one good match then play a million easy to find uneven matches. i dont care if im winning or losing those even matches or not its despite the point in ranked to me. also for -blam!- sake seasons are also a horrible idea. the point of seasons was to prevent deranking. well guess what thats what it does any way it deranks everyone on purpose. this makes it so i'm mid season as a bronze playing people who were goddamn onyxs last season but didnt rank this season so that one game completely -blam!-s my rank. and another thing if your going to have a broken system why cant it work in my favor as well? i mean becuase i always seem to have a fairly balanced team every time i play against another team that isnt. if you know what im sayin.

as you can tell yes i did just have a horrible game of arena where i rage quit and then got immediately quit banned. this is why i think the game should have just been improved in development and not been so rushed then things like quit bans wouldnt even need to exist and i and everyone else who has ever been through this wouldn't have to wright threads like this over and over and over and over and over again.

I would listen to you if you capitalized your I's and beginnings of sentences. Also if you didn't have "blam!" every two lines. If I get quit banned, I just forge for ten minutes. Whale is right, because if there weren't a quit ban, everyone would quit after they are killed one time.

"Make the game worthy of not quitting"? How, most people quit because they are killed when they have a sniper or rockets or sword. Should we turn the damage off so that we can all just frolic around the fields, t-bagging each other for 12 minutes?

I'm more wondering why the surrender option guy didn't speak up.


This... and -100 000 cr per game you quit, that should teach people to not quit, play the game even if you lose, its when your back against a wall that you put yourself together and blow -blam!- up

Like this

I was at my best when we were loosing and made a HUGE difference on my team when I was back against the wall, losing, with bad teamates, yet I stayed in, kicked some balls and won the game on my own (litterally) we (I) came from behind at the end of the game, I tied it at 47-47 and took the win

A surrender vote?

I would never finish my games. They would all hit the surrender button. How is that fair to me?

The one Bungie mentioned would only appear after the rest of your team quits.

Screw that. You either stay and get spawn rayped over and over or you quit out.

It's your problem for not going in with a full team. It's Bungie's problem they didn't include trueskill in this game.

all player should vote yes for it to happen so if 1 out of 6 vote no, then the game continues, if 6 vote yes, the game quit, if you are 2 down and 1 vote yes 1 no, game continue... (I think you get the point)

and although joining game that need player would be a good idea to fix the problem, most halo player are stat padder and wont accept that they join a game theyre already loosing cause it'll be a loss on their stats and they would had no chance of winning it, so the "pro" community wouldnt approve, they are the one who cry the most on forum, so that will never happen
