My third montage!

I honestly don't know what to think anymore. I just know for me personally there are quite a few aspects that I don't like about H4. I felt the same way about Reach.

Change to much the community hates you, don't change enough and the community hates you.

I really don't know anymore.

THANK YOU
What are you thanking him for?
I'm thanking him becuase he dug up all this evidence that every Halo game has been hated an equal amount.
I'm sorry, but linking to seven seperate individuals saying that they don't like Halo 2 isn't evidence that every Halo game has been hated an equal amount. Not that it matters either way, because people hating every Halo game equally means nothing.
Have you read the replies? There are a ton of other people who dislike the game.

Of course it doesn't. It just shows people that it's not suprising when someone hates on a new Halo game.

I've noticed this too. Every new game is the worst in the series, and everyone magically decides to start loving the game that they just finished trashing. I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees this.

Game design is a balance. You want to innovate between titles, but you don't want to forsake the core thesis of the series.

Furthermore, game design is not binary. Most people aren't hating these games simply because they are changing, a lot of the people hate the changes because the particular changes being implemented are bad. It's really that simple.

"You get what you put into it."

When Legendary is too mainstream, you have Heroic. When you're the leader of the church of MLGeezus, have Epic in your username, and can't write 'About Me's' to save your life, what do you get?

This guy. And now, an side note: Most things I post contain lethal doses of sarcasm, so be warned, and try not to take me seriously.

Finally, a message to Bungie trolls everywhere.

You can alter as many things that you want to in a sequel, but people shouldn't have to make that leap of faith in assuming that every change is an improvement, especially when it comes to gameplay.

No reason to memorize weapons, make the game have no soul to it and make everything more random? Those things are bad. Reach had more soul to it than Halo 4.

You could argue that Halo 2 could be a negative to the series in some aspects if you look at all change as a way of negativity. Halo 2 may have changed the core of Halo gameplay, but it did it in its own way. Halo 4 incorparated elements of change that were copies of obvious elements from other games (COD-ification, etc) in order to cater to players who need an excuse to buy the game. This is when Halo no longer becomes Halo and where the reason for hate comes from.

Halo 4 is still the worst.

At least Halo 2 resembled Halo...... and it had a very high active population.... and many other things which Halo 4 funnily enough excludes.

Currently studying Computer Science & Software engineering. Hope to work on mobile devices of the future! When a certain game's credits roll, look out for my name! ;)

You will -blam!- bricks when you see what game it is! =)

Woah, going to those forums was like going to a cemetery. Im glad to be back... sorta...

Who give beat down? We give beat down!

Every Halo game gets hate, eventually Halo 6 will come out and it will be so "bad" that everyone will profess that Halo 4 was the golden era of Halo.

This is pretty much why the Halo community is the worst in the gaming industry.


They hate on the current game, then when the new one comes out, they fall in love with the one they just got done hating.

It's funny how high some peoples expectations were even back then. History always repeats itself.

The guy in the first post was expecting destructable enviroments and really advanced AI out of a game for the original Xbox console? It makes me chuckle.
So cute!

I know, I know. It's just all of it seems really absurd, I mean truly ridiculous. On one hand I can see why 343i didn't host a public beta, but given the final product it certainly seems like they should have.

If you honestly believe this, then I really don't know what to say.

While there certainetly are a few individuals with short attention spans who will dislike features of a current game and fondly remember only the good parts of a previous game, the vast majority of people will still dislike previous games for the same reasons they disliked them back then, and they will still like previous games for the same reason they liked them back then.

What's really happening is that you people are seeing a few individuals who say "I miss this previous Halo game" or "I don't like this current Halo game", and then you go on to make several horrific jumps in reasoning until you get to the conclusion you desire, upon which you say "AHAH! I WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG!"

I could write a list of the assumptions you are making, but it honestly pains me to type it out because some of these assumptions are just so obviously wrong that it pains me to explain it to you.

There is nothing wrong with the community. There is no magical cycle where people forget about everything they disliked about a previous game and instantly support it with the full might of their heart. It is a fabrication that you people have created in your minds.

Halo 4 is bad. My favorite Halo is Halo 2, and my second favorite is Reach. I like the old and the new, but Halo 4 is just a massive disappointment.
