It's not a great game with some rough spots, the entire thing is basically bad other than the few core Halo mechanics they left in the multiplayer.

Thousands of other people disagree.

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.

People, HaloCharts displays daily peak population, or the most people online at once. Halo Reach showed the people online all day, and Halo 3 adopted a Reach-esque approach for data collecting.

Comparing those numbers puts Halo 4 at a disadvantage. Mix that with it being #2 on the charts, and you're not really proving anything.

Reach didn't use a use a 24 hour counter.

Reach did show everybody currently online, though. Halo 4 shows who's currently online in matchmaking war games playlists.

Call me Rdog, not RdOG or RdOG1507. I made that username when I thought it was cool to use alternating capital and lowercase letters...

OP's Christmas List:

New Game (not Halo 4)
Money
New keyboard to type up troll threads with
Halo 4's population to drop
Something to post a troll thread about

So I have no problem with it.

How come nobody ever links Call of Duty's numbers?? How many people are playing Black Ops II??


Well only way to post those numbers with proof is to take a picture of it from in-game, basically no webpage tracks the stats for CoD. Unless you count steam and it's population stat page, but thats for PC games.

As an example Kotaku took a picture on the peak population for Blops 2 during launch day.

They might be on holiday. Or dead. Or in hospital. Or trapped down a well.

You are assuming they will never come back, which is wrong. I'm afraid you have no actual evidence.

LOL and those people playing could have gotten on for just a second or played one match, the ignorance of fan boys never stops astounding me. Hell I play Halo 4 and I hate it there's probably more people out there just like me too.

Because you are assuming their reasoning for "leaving" when there are other reasons for why they aren't playing the game right now.

Obviously I think that when the number decreases over time instead of abnormally. lrn2statistics

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Getting tired of people bashing the numbers. It doesnt matter, as long as there is enough players to play a match, im really not bothered. Plus its Christmas! Most people are with their families, not stuck on their Xbox.

I could spend 60 dollars on a large aubergine, and ram it up my bum for a few hours to make the purchase seem worth while, but surely that would be making a situation worse, not better?

Assuming that the population decrease is abnormal.

I said that it wasn't abnormal.

So H4's population is naturally decreasing over time. Just like every other video game out there.

And this proves that it's a bad game?
