Halo no longer has that chess kind of approach on it where two teams battle for map control, working together to outplay the other team.Its now a bunch of sugar rushed ten year old's playing soccom boppers at 12:00 AM.

I want someone to list everything bad they see about halo 4 right now, I honestly don't see what everyone dislikes about it.

loadouts(lol)
killcam(why?)
AA(failed in reach why use them again)
ordinance drops(serioously)
due to AA,huge maps and bad ones btw
unlock emblems(lol)
etc...

halo is becoming more about players looks than gameplay like seriously who give 2 -blam!-s what their spartan looks like?

Alright, find a me a Chart for both Halo 3 and Reach that shows their population a month after release. Be my guest.

Take note that Halo Reach still had 700k players as of June of 2011 where Halo 4 is barely holding 150k a month after release.

...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?

I'm going to need a source on that.

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

...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?


Gaara, the population of Halo 4 is continuously spinning above 120k daily, as when I play it, the numbers always exceed 90k alone.

I'm going to drop these units-sold numbers:

Reach: It sold 4.7 million units by September 2011 globally. $200mill on opening day.
Halo 4: Globally 6.4 million copies. $300mill i it's opening week. $220mill on opening day.

Stop arguing over imaginary -blam!-. May as well argue over Santa Claus. There will never be proof that there is/was a god - and before people start saying "HERP DERP PROVE THERE WASN'T ONE ROFLOLOL" well, you are the people who made it up in the first place so we know there isn't one
What created the big bang then? A coalition of genetically modified TR-909s with extra distortion?

The worst map selection of any FPS I've ever bought
Weapon drops
Weapons disappearing after touching the ground in 3 seconds
boltshot being OP
CTF being ruined
Sprint being default
horrible custom game options
Forge is literally a copy and paste from Reach
killcams, and the horrid accuracy of them

Honestly, Halo 4 is actually a good game if you take all the CoD -blam!- out.

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

  • 12.27.2012 8:14 AM PDT

Are you kidding me? Halo Reach was the destruction! Halo 4 is slightly rebuilding from bloom, armor abilities that ruled over gameplay, and that very, very strange health system. I just want things to be similar to Halo 3 again...

"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"

I hold Reach to a higher regard because it was Bungie being ambitious, not 343i being cash cows.

This


People do that all the time and the list gets pretty lengthy. If you haven't seen one by now then I don't know what to tell you besides that I'm sick of typing it out.

  • 12.27.2012 8:19 AM PDT

And thus history repeats itself, you people said the same about Reach, Halo 3, and Halo 2.

You're just a bunch of whiny pricks who refuse to let go of your -blam!- pasts and absolutely hate anything new in a halo game.

Halo Reach was a rushed game, Halo 4 was more than rushed, unfinished.

It failed on the multiplayer. Campaign it went right. But overall, 343i either they learn how to make a Halo game, perish or fire Frank, because he seems he didn't learn anything from Bungie on making a Halo game.

Halo 4 will no be killed, no matter the criticism. Just because people are enjoying, myself included, and that you guys are raging doesn't make it unplayable or shrink the population of it.

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 admit, I still prefer the barebones Halo dependant solely on skill and learning the map, timing, and controlling the power weapons, but I really enjoy Halo 4 and don't give it much thought.

It's still the second most played game on Xbox.

You do realize Reach had 700k unique users every 24 hours on June 2011, IT NEVER PEAKED THAT HIGH on June 2011. Halo 4 still gets millions of unique users every day. But it just peaks at 100-150K in Multiplayer Matchmaking.

I really don't understand why I have a signature.

Wow, people actually think Halo 4 is going to die any time soon.

I persist too long after my own defeat,
Yet I still press forward, staggering on my feet.
But I know that my resolution will be my end.
And once I fall, I shall ruefully transcend.

I've been playing Halo since Halo 2 (somewhat), and I consider Halo 4 to be just as good as Halo 3, but that is just my opinion.

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???
All I got from that.

Double standard of the century right here.

  • 12.27.2012 9:08 AM PDT

For me Halo 4 is just plain boring. It still feels like Halo but it's just a empty shell with the filling removed. Gunplay just isn't as fun as it was in the other Halo games.

This made me lol. Oh wow, at least you were honest and admitted your biased fanboyism for Bungie right here.

I'm pretty sure Xbox in general seems to be dying.
