Zero isn't even in SFxT. And well, your whole fighting game example is way off. Competitive fighting game players don't run around -blam!-ing about characters and wanting them removed (though then again, comparing EVO to MLG is like comparing milkshakes to battery acid).

Although Ghost is correct. I enjoy Reach, and I think you're a goddamn idiot. Hell, I enjoy all the Halo titles for all their own reasons. Not just one gun. Not just power weapons. And get this, I'm horrible at Halo, and I can't stand most of the douche nozzles in this thread. But at least I started to learn that for all the perceived complaining they are right.

I may not personally enjoy the TU, or competitive play all that much (actually, I haven't played a serious multiplayer match in months) but I at least get that simpler game play with out all the bells and whistles is best for the type of game they want to play (this goes for any genre of game, really).

Less off-topic, more on topic.

Halo fanbase should split.

Bad blood between the fanbases will help keep them separated I think.
No it shouldn't. I don't believe either side want a game that has half the potential player population. That's essentially what you're suggesting.

No Halo should be Halo pure and simple. What 343 should do is make the best, balanced shooter they can possibly make. That being said, given the changes they have suggested so far that makes the former a laughable concept at best.

The most that those of us who prefer a more classic/hardcore/competitive style of halo can hope for will be some sort of playlist hopper that does exactly that; Eliminates all the gimmicky-CoDesque elements from the game and returns halo to it's best quality: Complex gameplay through simplicity.

Those of you scoffing at precision weapons and suggest that "it reduces map movement and weapon variety" need to let it go. Between two evenly matched teams there are layers complexity built into the game that become apparent through Map Control, Power Weapon Control and team work. Those are the things that made halo a wonderful experience. Simple concepts that provided complex and enduring gameplay.

I'm not saying halo should be all MLG. MLG is simply one way to play halo the same as griffball or zombies are other examples of how to play halo that are neither right or wrong.

I'm simply saying when developers begin to add layers of gimmicks into a proven formula it becomes exceedingly difficult to balance the over all game play around all the additions and changes.

Not sure why I typed all that, not that it matters. It will fall on deaf ears and I'm sure I'm about to be told why my opinion is "wrong"

I just want halo 4 to have a prevailing sense of balance built into it's overall gameplay. Everything else is gravy.

Assault Rifle starts are always the best.

You just lost all/any credibility you ever had on this forum.

I meant MvC3, mistake.


Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Street Fighter 2 HD Remix

Street Fighter 3: Third Strike

Soulcalibur

Soulcalibur 4

Who doesn't complain? So no complaining is legit unless it's about the Battle Rifle getting removed or Armor Lock ending your splatter spree in the ghost?

Although Ghost is correct. I enjoy Reach,

Because you like Reach, you think it makes me more "idiotic"? So you agree(As you clearly stated), which means you "liking" Reach is moot, Very moot, you just felt like siding with the "audience" and ended up tripping over your own words.

comparing EVO to MLG

Who said anything about MLG and EVO? They are both competitive? They both are "1337" gamers? And they both like to win and get games changed based on the fact they can't beat the new guy/gun/whatever.

And bottom line, you assumed "competitive" and MLG/EVO walk together? They don't.

Get a dictionary and learn what "competitive" means, you guys consistently keep misusing it.

But at least I started to learn that for all the perceived complaining they are right.

This was aimed at what? I'm proposing with this reply that you guys are "losers", The complaining about something other than the topic "Splitting the fanbase", is moot here, the same way sticking to "Halo: Reach" forums to keep saying about much you dislike "Halo: Reach".

You could choose to love a game, or to hate another.

They could be sharing love for Halo 2/3 but they rather express "hatred" here in for "Halo: Reach" in the "Halo: Reach" forum.

"Halo: Reach" has TU, who is still complaining? They got what they want changed right? Halo 4 has a Battle Rifle? If Reach was really just terrible game, they would have forgot it already.

The thing that "Competitive" players hate about Reach so much, is one thing.

They could go back to Halo 3 all day, they already sold that "bad game" that is lolReach.

Like most games that are bad, people take it back, get a refund and say they "don't like it".

But Reach? No, they complained, complained, complained.

343i favored the "competitive" crowd, changed the game(Or half the game types).

And yet their still here, why? Because of the remaining playlist, people are still enjoying a game they hate, so they can't let them all be happy play something they were no good at.

People say, "I hate Armor Lock!" In the Team Slayer playlist, why aren't they in Super Slayer? It's obvious now isn't it?

They were no good at Halo: Reach, they feel small, so now everyone must know.

How do I know? If they "easily" got around Armor Lock and the other abilities, they wouldn't hate them, they would have no reason as it doesn't stop their "ob3r skillz" but it does, and that's proof because all the armor lock hate comments explains one thing.

They die.

Another thing is sword block, something that didn't "slow down" gameplay, they hated it simply because their prey has options to survive.

Sword block very rarely lets you kill the sword user unless you have a power weapon, but it usually lets your shotgun touting teammate kill em, or someone melee him, the kicker?

They die.

It's clearly obvious, they want "less" defensive options and more offensive, they like fast kill times and have nothing on their mind then "headshot".

Another piece of evidence is found right here.

"Competitive" players don't want CE/Reach/ODST players to have fun in a game they can't win at.

Look at the pool, they want the community dead.

Why? Because if they don't like it, nobody can play it, and why don't they like it?

They die.... a lot.

Splitting a fanbase will do no negative.

People who disliked Reach won't buy another Reach-esque game.

People who disliked 2/3 or wasn't into Halo before Reach won't buy Battle Rifle 4.

Splitting the fanbase would let both players play what they want, but a Halo game they can't win at just can't exist to the "competitive" players eyes.

Until Halo: Reach becomes Halo 3.1, they will actively hate on Reach forums for as long they play Halo.

Another piece of evidence clearly stated earlier, as to how their "complaining" is active "hate".

This is a "Halo: Reach" forum.

Whenever Reach came out.

Armor Lock stopped their grenade spams.

Active Camo made close encounters easier whenever they wielded the sword/shotgun.

Jetpack made their "Sniper" sweet spot easily accessible.

Evade dodge their trigger spamming.

And worst of all to any "competitive" Halo 2/3 player.

They heard the respawn timer.

Cause of the death? They couldn't believe their eyes.

An "@R scu3!" had killed them.

And THAT was the last straw.

Retaliate all you want.

I already know fanboys and facts don't mix.

Congrats on topping the page 1 idiocy I pointed out earlier.

Nope. SouthPole isn't a person. He's the avatar of the force of tryhards everywhere. He stalks the web looking for retards to set straight. He can not be stopped by mere bans or thread locks for he shall rise anew.

Why do you assume we can't "beat the new weapon/gun/ability?

We only dislike things which lower the skill gap, because as a result, they make the game less competitive.

You do realize that you're doing the exact same thing you say we do?

This is you,

"OMG I H4T3 PEUPL SPAMIN THE TRIGGER WAAAAHHH"
"OMG I HOW DID HE K1LL MEH WIT TH4T GERNADE OMG GRENADE SPAMMMMMM"

This is us,
"Bloom slows down the game and adds an element of randomness which isn't desirable in a competitive game such as Halo."

This is a serious question.

No trolling, biased, internet-anonymity involved, no hatred of Halo 2/3 involved here at all.

This is the question.

Do you really take failure in Halo that seriously?

No. But because I don't agree with you I must be part of the caricature of a group that you claim are against you, right?

Well can you?


Obviously. I know this may come as a shock to you, but not everyone complains solely because they can't overcome something. You complain about people spamming the trigger/BR and people "spamming' grenades, but that's because you suck.

We "complain" because the skill gap is made smaller by adding gimmicks like armor lock and bloom.

I asked if you could overcome them.



Again, fkn obviously. With or without bloom, we're still the ones making you go negative, retard.

I'm not going to let you be the representative of the Halo 2/3, you have trouble understanding English, and with your comments and logic, you clearly don't have what it takes to talk for anyone but yourself.


Obvious troll is obvious.

Note: I do play Halo, you just need to search for MJGAMER12 on the Halo: Reach/Halo 3 Gamertag thing.

Why has THIS not been mentioned yet?

Well let me ask you something else, if you don't care that much about losing.

Why are you still here, almost 2 years? Saying the same things said so long ago?

I could say the same to you.

Wasting your time posting paragraphs on this dead forum won't change anything in the community.

He watches every Hodgetwin video they put up...on ALL their channels. He calls them the Hodge Triplets, and considers himself the 3rd triplet. He's started talking and acting like them now. Every other line out of his mouth "Thaaas some BULLLLLL**** maaayne" or "Gotta make dem gainzzzz". He calls his biceps "gains". When he eats post-workout, he talks to his biceps, "Don't worry gains, I'm feeding you. Daddys gonna feed you, gainz *kisses biceps*".

I don't really have much to add to this topic, but I did control-f on every page for Mass Effect and evidently no one thought what I thought of the moment I read the poll:

Control the Halo fanbase
Merge with the Halo fanbase
Destroy the Halo fanbase

:D

I don't feel like dying for an action to the Halo fanbase. Can I get someone else to do it?
