I think the Reclaimer trilogy will become the definitive Halo experience. Yeah the first trilogy was about the Human-Covenant War, but this trilogy is focusing on the true nature of Halo's story, the Forerunners and possibly beyond.


No. It will not.

The Halo 4 story is a perversion of the Halo story line, simply created to drag out the series and milk it for more money.

Any credibility you may have had for being a mod was lost with this sentence, sorry, but that was just really crudely put and showed a complete disregard for a lot of things that were really cool, particularly the Didact's monologue in that very scene being bar-none the best writing in the entire Halo series.


lol

Grow a pair. -blam!- you bobcast. Ive always thought of you as pathetic and you got destroyed in an argument by haloroach.


Also, lol you mad?


I'm willing to bet I'll get banned for saying this, but can I ask you how someone so immature and, for lack of a better word, mean got put in the moderator position? You act like a complete child and have no respect for the members on here, it's actually really pathetic.
I will say this again, he stated his opinion and was greeted with insults and rage. He then simply responded in a way that was equivalent to how you responded to him. You all resorted to idiotic retorts and yelling at him like 5 year olds. Kenway, I at least semi respected you back in my other thread, you just threw all of that out. Thank you for proving my point.

Also Bobcast I entirely agree as far as the game goes.

You people are ridiculous. People used to complain about this kind of crap on the Halo 3 forums, even the worst people there were more civil than this.


Clearly you missed the part where bobcast posted his opinion, and then Haloroach deconstructed it and posted very valid points against it. Rather than defending his points or offering Counter points, bobcast disregarded all of it just to say "Stop shouting".

He was the first one to start this idiotic trend of insults, because yes it is insulting to ignore everything a person said. Following that he hasn't offered any proper discussion worthy posts, simply saying "lol" or "you mad" afterwards. For now he will look like an angry child until he responds properly to Haloroach's points.

I don't know how to feel about halo 4 anymore. On one hand I commend 343 for trying to blend the EU into the game and expand the story, but on the other i can't help but be embarrassed by all the mistakes they've made.

I'm hoping for good things to come from halo 5, but i'm skeptical now and don't plan on picking it up on launch day.

343i is stupid.


Give me ten good reasons why


1. Created a blatantly obvious CoD clone.

2. Shunned more of their fan based causing more dramatic drops in population after release.

3. Dropping the skill gap even more in Halo games. Making the game 'kid' friendly in a sense.

4. Halo 4 doesn't resemble a Halo game. It should just be called A Game 4.

5. No weapons on map promote camping and there is no longer any incentive for moving around the map.

6. Terrible and stupid fanbase on their website aiding the efforts of creating terrible 'CoD' gameplay.

7. Failed to create a working file share.

8. Failed to create a working theater system.

9. Destroyed custom games. Removed loved gametypes and removed all the ability to be able to make anything but lolHalo 4 out of them.

10. Destroyed forge.

11. Multiplayer netcode is terrible. Lag, killcams etc

12. Solved the AA problem by adding in more and making them more OP. Once again creating Reach - I was more suited to the situation than you - encounters.

13. Gives players power weapons hand delivered to them. No need for map control anymore.

14. Campaign is once again full of plotholes.

15. Dev team is made of people who have had no experience whatsoever in making a Halo game before. Hence why the game doesn't resemble it.

16. Spartan Ops. Terrible story. And terrible excuse for a gamemode. (Doing the same objective over and over again on the same maps in not 'fun', 'new' and 're-playable' gameplay).

17. Weapon sandbox is servery broken.

18. Loadouts.

19. Being able to spawn with a shotgun as a secondary.

20. Ruined every single gametype in Halo.

21. Instant re-spawns.

22. Instant re-spawns in objective.

23. 'Perks'

24. Uninspired maps and general terrible map design.

25. No sense of level design to begin with.

26. Removal again of powerups on the map.

27. Halo Pokemon cards (You know those silly things you have to look at every Halo lobby).

28. Sound design is awful in places. The music cannot be heard throughout the campaign, and there is no option to turn it up.

29. Call of Duty unlock system - where you have to be a certain level to use a certain gun.

30. General terrible company built upon the foundation of one objective in mind - Milk the series like CoD does and make lots of money until the series is inevitability killed off.

I gave you thirty. And I'm outta this thread.

Where's my rebuttal apart from a silly phrase? What did you say? Oh yeah ignorance is bliss.

lolHalo 4 has had the lowest population of any Halo game. It has dropped to this population faster than any Halo game.

Don't know why you defend it when facts show the game is not likable by the majority. The game will continue to be milked until it is not profitable - just like CoD.

CoD campaigns get worse and worse each year, why should Halo's not considering it is basically trying to copy it?

If I ever get AIDS, I'm going to sleep with another AIDS person so my AIDS cancel each other out, or I'm going to make the AIDS I already have worse.

I liked the part when Cortana space magic'd a nuclear detonation that Chief was literally touching.

These threads are always fun! At least on Bungie.net I am not banned from speaking my blasphemous opinion like on 343i forums.

I enjoy reading posts from people denying facts and claiming that the majority love the game..... wait? Hasn't this been done before? Oh yeah happened with Reach. And those people are still in denial.

Isn't that what everybody does here? Why is it so special when a moderator does it? We are all humans here. They aren't Godlike figures.

This is mainly the reason why mods don't post in these threads because their opinion is taken with a far higher regard than anybody else's.

I've got to agree with all of those points. So much, in fact, that I'm quoting you in your entirety.

His behavior is hypocritical because as a mod he should promote intelligent discussion, not disregard it entirely because he can't think of any arguments.

He was just expressing his opinion, in my opinion. And someone took it the wrong way and things trainwrecked.

Hence why Bobcast didn't continue on with the discussion.

Plus there wasn't any intelligent discussion happening anyway.

(Haha and I'm only defending him because I agree with his opinion......)

She teleported him out of the ship; you can see they're in space if you look through the light shield. Then there's the line "I got you off the ship."

But I know paying attention and thinking isn't the strongest quality people posess. Nope, they'd much rather complain about everything rather than just god damn enjoy their lives.

What, no....

Haloroach posted a response against what bobcast wrote. He wasn't taking it the wrong way, and how he responded was the definition of intelligent discussion.

Rather than continuing it, by countering Haloroach's points, bobcast decides to that it's better to post juvenile responses that promote no discussion whatsoever.

Nice excuse fanboy. That doesn't fix 343's incoherent rambling of an "official" Halo story.

"Oh no mc the forerunners are attacking what we gonna do!!!???"

"Dun worry I'm chosen spartan of master forerunners lolololol"
