Fun fact: 9/10 users with no linked gamertag are better than you at Halo. That doesn't necessarily mean that I am; but it does mean there's a pretty solid chance.
To be fair, we were in desperate need of a Title Update. Reduced bloom and nerfed AL and Camo are not bad things. And the Anniversary maps are much better than any of the default ones.
They have done some dumb stuff too though. Mostly in terms of playlist updates.
