Wouldn't I be deceiving myself?

I mean the H4 Elites are just Reach Elites with improved cqc, less berserking and strafing, and increased chances of rushing.

It's good to see that 343i had more time to do the finishing touches on their game, oh wait.

Implying I'm defending Halo 4 and not just calling you out on using irrelevant characters in your post.

Implying using greentext on a website which doesn't support greentext, is even slightly logical.

Implying using ">" and "Lel" somehow makes you an edgier/2cool4u user of the internet.

Grow up and try to compose your arguments without resorting to 3edgy5u internet (or more specifically, 4chan) slang.

It's nice to see the Halo 4 Defense Force is still thriving in full throttle. The games sucks ass and you will do anything to defend it. You're right though, why should I care? Why should I expect ANYTHING from a company that just sits on its ass and ruins games while making grunts eat lunch in scripted events.

The fact that 343 outsourced basically half the game?


As if bungie didn't do the exact same thing?

I think BS angel put more work into those (horrible) bulletins every week than 343 did into the actual game.

GUIS!

Every video game that was made using the Unreal Engine and Havok Engine?

Those developers didn't make half the game! They bought the Unreal Engine from Epic and used that to make the game. They are totally slacking off and not putting in the 10110% we expect them to put in.

Also: Failed to mention it at the time, but the Reach engine is a modified version of the H3 engine. That's what Bungie has done as well.

Rather than build a car from scratch they strip the current car and rebuild off the frame.

This. Also, who the hell cares if they did? You buy the game, not the companies that make it.

Also: AC3 was made by god only knows how many different sub Ubisoft studios. Effectively they are all different developers all just working under the same banner.

Ubisoft technically outsourced more than half of AC3.

It matters because having several unrelated studios work on the game hurts the final product.

And certain affinity's been doing Bungie's map packs since Halo 2, and the H4 engine is the same engine Bungie's been using for almost the entire franchise, so this isn't new.

343i is not just a game design company, they are also the holders of an entire media franchise. Much of their staff is dedicated to the oversight of that franchise, and its related products.

What 343i did do was the entire campaign, writing and, as far as I know, most of the multiplayer design and testing. Don't know where you pulled that CA did multiplayer. All CA did was Forge and theater, and built the map pack, while 343i designed/oversaw it.

Ultimately every decision came back to 343i. Can this community stop trying to crucify 343i for 5 seconds for once?

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Ok, so you're a car company and you want to build the best car on the market. Are you going to build all the pieces yourself, or are you going to import the parts from other companies that make those parts better than you do, thus creating a better finished product?

That's why when people ask Halo 4 questions regarding multiplayer, campaign, story, armors and more. They don't answer and try to avoid giving one.


And the only reason why Halo 4 feels like a BETA. They don't know how to handle a game they DIDN'T made!

I think they should've stayed with books and toys.

"So- So this means Im just going to be miserable for the rest of time?!"

"No. This means that you have to live life to the fullest. You have one life, live it well. Make sure you die without regrets. Get a new life, new mate, new family. You, out of all people, don't deserve a terrible fate of misery like that. Having nothing to look forward to is good. It makes sure you want to keep on going. Living is a right, not a privilege."

They used that money to pay the other guys.

Yes, because it would have totally been better to assign an internal trainee to render the cutscenes we see in Halo 4... are you people even listening to yourself?

How does it matter that they outsourced armor-modeling and cutscene-rendering to another company if the final product is good?
And don't tell me it isn't good. Haters are a clear minority... a fact a lot of people seem to forget here.

No, it isn't.

The 'too many hands in the pot' expression has been used several times in this thread. If that many unrelated studios are working on critical parts of the game, the final product tends to be sloppy, glitchy, and unfocused. That's Halo 4 to a tee. Seeing as I paid $60 for a game that turned out to be nothing more than a hasty compilation of half-baked ideas tossed together by several of these random studios, I feel cheated as a customer.

That is exactly what you are saying and everybody in this thread berating 343I is ignorant of how things are mande.


Do you think one company makes all the parts for an Airplane,car,tank,or cell phone? No, the generally get parts from all around the world which in turned get made at several places.


My friend wasn't complaining about his BMW coming in a month later because his seats were getting designed in italy. This isn't any different. The ignorant people in this thread need to look at other games and find out how much "other companies" worked on them and they would be shocked.


I'll start with saying bungie sure hasn't been making it's maps in house. Certain affinity has been used with halo since halo 2.

I stopped playing AC with the first game but even i know that ubisoft has smaller companies that worked on the other games (probably even the first)


Don't forget the little companies Bethesda has.


Majority of this thread is filled with ignorance who i only assume are children since the average adult is aware of something like this.
