That logic is flawed right now. Most people who hate Halo 4 also hate Reach. Their not loving up the previous, they're loving up the game before the previous cause it wasn't too much of a drastic change like Reach and 4. Oh by the way, the population is slowly going down, regardless of what you say. You could say that every game does that, but it took the last two Halo games a lot longer than a month to start to go down as fast as Halo 4 is.

The same things will be said about Halo 5 and 6, as you'll always complain about the current game and love up on the previous.

I find it funny how all the haters just bang on about how bad the game is.

If you didn't care about the game why bang on about it?? It's not dying its no where close to dying millions of copies have been sold.

But your right, because you don't like the game that means its dying.

Almost. Let it die and you'll get classic halo back cuz then 343i will realise how stupid they made halo 4.

I love it when people JOIN TOGETHER AND FIGHT FOR A CAUSE. I don't mean run up to 343's headquarters lair and kick everyone in the balls, I mean ACT. I'm so glad a population HATES Halo 4 with a passion. The defenders hopefully are outnumbered. Halo 4 should just die. Halo 3 should be shut off in 10 years when it's the new pong. People want more of the same. Look at Call Of Money. Same thing every year except BOII I guess. But it sells. Every year. Halo can do the same every 4 years. Bungie was never in it for the cash. It cares about it's fanbase. Unlike most. Now Bungie dumped Halo into goblin hands. To make a last buck. What the hell is going on???


Agreed, most of those 1million people who pre-ordered the game wanted classic halo 1-2-3 style gameplay but got disappointed and left this blamy! game.

Even though it was clear what you were getting before you bought it eg perks and loadouts. These were stated many times to be in the game so I don't see why these 1 million people were suprised

Games have different standards. You're not going to use the same scale for halo and some no-name game.

  • 12.27.2012 7:16 AM PDT

I'm not comparing Halo 4 to other games on XBL, I was only comparing it to Reach and 3. I was already aware of Halo 4's rating on the XBL charts. But the fact still stands, Halo 3 and Reach both had a stronger population a month after it's release, and they both had other games out during their time that were just as big. XBL charts only shows that Halo 4 and BOII is popular. I'm talking about the steady decline of players from Halo 4, which Reach and 3 trump over when compering only these three games.

Wow, that's amazing! I didn't realise there were people who could read 1 million minds.

Honestly there's so many things wrong with that comment that it makes me sick. I swear to god one day gamers like you will run gaming into a brick wall.

I had a pretty big time thread once.

Here's me bragging about it.

I don't know and don't care. Reach and Halo 4 are in a garbage can in my house now. Everyone else can have their opinions but this just isn't Halo.

Considering how Reach's population never exceeded 120k after day one, and Halo 4 has a constant above that, that argument is flawed.

It was as if I asked "Are we there yet"

No, kid, the car would have stopped. Now shut up and drink your apple juice.

Your presence here is quite unneeded. Begone you!!!

Tried going back to CE....felt blocky :/

Still, simple is sometimes better. Not always the case when you apply the "Once you go _____, you never go back" And the _____ can be anything you can think of.

Ce isn't too blocky. Just not up to date for 2012.

And even if you made CE Anniversomoney, the gameplay would not be good enough.

I agree with you OP, but the only thing I liked about Reach was INVASION.

This. And it still felt a lot like Halo.

Halo 4 has been COD-ified wayyyy to much. Still not a bad game tho. and it will be better after the TUs

No of course not....that was for effect. I gave Reach to my cousin and Halo 4 is with my other cousin who wanted to get into Halo....I told him it's nothing like the first 3 (which he hasn't played) but his CoD-loving self is having a good time.

  • 12.27.2012 7:30 AM PDT

Halo 4 is not dead and it's far from dying. You people should stop seeing things you only want to see.

A lot of people for example fail to see the difference of overall player population and daily peaks. Staying constant around 100k players online at once is a great number.

And I personally think Halo 4 is the best Halo yet. At least on par with H3.

  • 12.27.2012 7:32 AM PDT

I'm going to need a source on that.

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! =)

nothing

anniversomoney? you don't understand why companies exist do you? their sole purpose is to make money, of couse anniversary was made with money in mind, as was CE, 2, 3 etc.

...Haven't you been saying that the "fact" is that Halo 4 had a weaker population than Reach and Halo 3 without offering a single source?

  • 12.27.2012 7:38 AM PDT

"Moooooooo"
-Ghost cow

Eh Halo 3 is still ok if you live in the US - less lag.

It's easy to find games since they just matchmake you into any available ones. The DLC playlists are deserted though.
