Halo: Tactical

I'm either a fool or an inteligent man, depending on how sleepy or angry I am.

I originaly made an account on 07.27.2007 but I wanted to link my GT and made this account. Don't forget your passwords!

Bungie had no choice. They wanted to be independant and had to give up Halo to do so. It was something about a deal with Microsoft, before Halo: ODST.

You do realize that 343 patched those spots because of people like you. People abused those spots so they got blocked off.

Give 343i a chance. They haven't even brought out a game that they made from scratch yet and you're knocking them already?

Your Used to be fan,
You were very clearly never a fan if you've given up on Bungie after only a year and a half of them not revealing anything new. Don't kid yourself.

Not to mention, Bungie started blocking off camping spots in Living Dead long before 343 even got a hold of the game.

Have a nice day.

Do you like Green Eggs and Ham???

Bungie wanted to work on something different for once.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I am sure the decision was an easy and logical one to make. Bungie had made Halo for over 10 years now and there is a point I think in time where everyone wants to just move on. Bungie was well ready to move on and explore new opportunities and create new stories.

I am glad Bungie took the initiative to make new games and not be like other studios who keep making the same franchise games every 2 years. It shows how Bungie wants to bring more innovation to video games and make new worlds for their fans to explore.

But you are just mad that 343i altered some spawn locations on living dead? wat. How is that any of Bungie's concern?

Well, used to be fan, have fun enjoying Halo with 343i. Bungie has moved on and I am glad to see the next generation of Bungie gaming.

Halo 4 looks disdainful for me to watch. Regardless of their continuation of the series. I would've left Halo 3 as a final remnant to the fans. The story provided closure and an exemplary plot. Halo 4 is just a knock-off amateurly produced game, judging by the graphics. Another disgraceful presumed Halo title. I seriously doubt they would amuse me than I presumed for ODST and Reach. Impudent on my judgment and hypocritical as I am. I'm willing to endure with just null curiosity. In a nutshell, 343 will probably not measure up to Bungie. Even though, they provided us mediocrity on the pre-quels for a cheap buck.

It seemed they didn't want it anymore with the job they did on Reach anyway..... sloppy.

Still, even though Halo 4 is looking like CoD..... nothing can be worse than Reach

Reach was a failure, and ODST wasn't much more than a party game to tide us over until Reach came out. Halo 3 is about where I draw the line on good Bungie games. Their lack of spirit started to show then, but the core of the game was sound enough to push it to the top for a while. Reach and ODST were just laughable, but more importantly, they felt like a slap in the face to most of the Bungie community. Perhaps Bungie was just out of ideas, perhaps they were pushed to make deadlines, or perhaps they overnight turned into -blam!-s. We don't really know the cause, but the results are fairly clear. Bungie couldn't make quality Halo games anymore. Passing the baton off to 343 and seeing them take an active role in fixing your spawn-camping and out-of-map hiding spots is more impressive and encouraging than it is upsetting. They care enough to go out of their way to fix problem areas in a game they really have no stake in. As for Halo: AN... What did you expect? It's Halo: CE with a graphics update. Nothing more or less. I'm not sure how you can bash them for a game that does exactly what it was advertised to do. Bringing new life to a classic title isn't a reason to be displeased unless you're just looking for reasons to whine (which is exactly what it sounds like).

Personally, I've more faith in 343 to make a true successor out of Halo 4 than I would've if Bungie had still been at the helm. As for everything you said about Halo 3 providing closure, that's not even close to true. Without delving into the canon, you're still left wondering what happens to MC (even more so if you got the Legendary Ending), and there are still the other rings to worry about. Bring the novels into the mix and you've even more unanswered questions. Halo 3 didn't answer -blam!-, lol.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

Bungie caters to their fanbase, which apparently you are no longer a part of.
