Subject: So, Halo 4 Officially The Worst Halo?

Why Bungie, why would you do this?! - Halo Community

- A generic "You are the chosen one campaign".

-A lacking of good forge maps. Forge is also buggy and poorly tested.

-Theater now lacks campaign. Congratulations Halo 3, all 3 of your successors couldn't make a better theater than yours.

- Spartan Ops is like watching grass grow. The respawns allow for spawncamping BY AI. Infinite lives+No points= an unrealistic and boring way to waste time.

- Bloom and Armor Lock had a kid recently; they named him Infinity Slayer. So what ever happened to those classic playlists 343 was talking about; I haven't seen any besides Slayer Pro, which still has instant respawns and the laziest and rushed dynamic spawn maps to even be put in a video game. Even most COD maps put H4's maps to shame.

-LE was filled to the brim with false advertising. I got weapon skins, avatar stuff nobody actually cares about, and map packs (and if they all resemble the Crimson pack, I might as well be getting nothing) and some rather lackluster paper. Forward Unto Dawn...on Waypoint? Then even worse, they put it on Youtube THEMSELVES.

Halo Reach gameplay is more consistent than Halo 4 gameplay (Hey Red Team, want free rockets? Here you go!), and LE was a bigger rip off than the pricing for ODST.

Yes, in my opinion, Halo 4 is the worst Halo I have played, and I will not be getting another.

Halo 4 definately was my least favorite halo but id why everyone is hating on ODST and wars. ODST was great for me and i was a big fan of Halo Wars. Ensemble studios definately did a better job at making a halo than 343 did. And community wise 343 has no clue.


- HWars- Butthurt RTS players.
- ODST- Overpriced for an expansion game.

I agree that ODST was overpriced but Wars was still a very decent console RTS. I guess I'm just one of the very few who liked Wars.

You can blame ODST's overprice on MS for that. Bungie wanted it to be lower than that. Fun fact.

If you can't trust yourself, then don't trust anyone.

I enjoy Halo 4, and I think it's fun.

343i tried to change Halo similar to COD and Battlefield games.


Because Bungie didn't try to do that with Reach or anything...oh wait

Which it looks like they don't know nothing about what the community wants and have played for 10 years.

Nikka you just went full retard

All 343i employees (200) are not doing anything. Only like 50 of them are really working on something, yeah Halo 5 and 6...

Where are you getting this from?
Did I just get trolled?


Reach was garbage too. But we are talking about 343i not Bungie.

Also, we the real Halo community dislike Halo 4, yes few likes the game but still Halo 4 standards were not fulfilled.

About the employees, if 343i haven't done anything right yet means employees are not working properly. They are 200 employees. And like 50 of them are working, in different areas, like the "file share" which it was a feature that was meant to be operational since Halo 4 day one. Multiplayer exploits, and the web team.

Halo 4 is unfinished.. if you haven't noticed.

Reach was way worse.

Not even Reach wore out its welcome this quickly.

  • 12.17.2012 12:57 PM PDT

I haven't even played the game in weeks, it got stale very quickly.

Although I think Halo 4 is better than Reach, I still think the Halo franchise should just die.

You just lost the game. Now facepalm yourself for clicking this :P

I like all the Halos. Even Wars. Don't see why everyone's hating on it.

If the options are continue in the CoD/BF direction or die, then yeah I'd prefer it die. Ideally though it would go back to its roots with the Quake/UT influences, and emphasize the fact that its an alien shooter taking place in alien environments, instead of all the human compounds, warehouses and spaceships it takes place in now.

"A beta? For Halo 4? HAHAHAHAHA. YEAH RIGHT! Screw that, we'll test the games ourselves. What can go wrong?"

Yes, that was cringe worthy. Along with ANCIENT EVIL, and omg humans are so bad. Ugh.

Forge maps, waiting for something to try and reach Sandbox tier.

What was so good about Sandbox? Ass ugly environment, ass ugly pieces, and Halo 3's crap forge mechanics made everything a chore.

I agree. Bungie ended Halo 3 on a good note.

Reach was their forced red-headed step child of a game. I respect Bungie for not milking Halo.

Actually it was Microsoft's forced red-headed step child of a game. Bungie's name is just on the packaging.

Seriously copy/pasting your thread from Waypoint here? Well, otherwise, I don't find it's gameplay or specs horrible, just the managing. We can blame this on Steve ballmer, of course, who ordered so much money and be spent on making this game look pretty, yet put absolutely no money into advertising or management- as he always does (look at Surface, Win8, etc). Microsoft is a crumbling company, and if they sold Halo back to Bungie right now, I guarantee Bungie's Halo 5 would outclass any other Halo to date, just because Bungie would have the opportunity to make M$ look even -blam!-ier.

Here that boys? We aren't real. I didn't know that liking Halo 4 causes me to not be a true halo fan.

"You are the last of your kind: bred for combat, built for war. You're the master of any weapon, pilot of any vehicle, and fear no enemy"

Agreed. Sadly.

Not a bad game, though.
