rrhuntington Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 I have been watching these forums for months before Halo 4's release, and before the release there wasnt as many complainers. Then the game comes out and i decide to join these forums.... This is when the Hate for Halo 4 flows like a river. It comes in many different forms from calm hate to the occasional, "343 WHY DID YOU MAKE THIS GAME LIKE COD, LOADOUTS ARE SUCH A DUMB MOVE WTF FU, I WANT BUNGIE BACK" .... I know i cant stop it, everyones entitled to an opinion, but to see so much hatred, not just here on the forums but in many different places...Is Disturbing... Is it always that after a games release, people complain about it and nitpick it to death, I mean there had to be people that complained about Halo 2,3,Reach, ODST, and Wars Right after their releases right? If there is so much gripe about Halo 4 there has to have been some for games in the past, even though they turned out wonderful in the long run. Halo 4 Was the first Halo game I bought new (Having only becoming a fan in mid-2009) and i wanted everyone and their brothers to enjoy the experience and come along for the ride, However that dream seems to have been deferred now... That can no longer be a reality. I miss the days when everyone could agree that Halo was Halo and everyone played it because they loved it. some of you may not see this the same way i do, or you may not have never felt this way at all... I have seen people who resent Halo 4 for its changes,and i do respect their decision but one thing keeps Halo in my Heart as one of the greatest game series ive ever had the privledge to play and think about this when you feel You want to give up on Halo... The Warthog Jump, marty o'donnell's magical scores, The storming of the beach on INSTALATION 04, Think about the sacrifices of Noble team, Think about SGT. Avery Johnsons Death... Remember the ones who rushed into the Howling Dark, and did not return. remember to keep it clean, and Most of all, look into your mind and remember all the good times you had with Halo, just remember the custom games you've had, all the Hours you've spent forging, all the hours playing, the unforgettable games and the killatrocitys...Just remember... I know I Do... Never Forget p.s: Dont Get mad at me for this post, I was Just expressing my OPINION! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littletunny Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Is it such a surprise in this day and age to expect a game better than the last??? I dont think its unreasonable. Halo 4 is clearly a failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamphaery Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 After every game's release, the same thing happens. There are two possibilities. 1) The disappointment and anger are reflective of a broader consensus of customers throughout the world. 2) The disappointment and anger are reflective of a vocal minority. Which one is the case will not be borne out until a month or two pass and either the online community dwindles, or it remains strong and full of dedicated players. Online petitions, form postings, etc. aren't valid ways of establishing what the consensus is, because only a fraction of all customers ever post online about the games they buy. It's easy to assume that the way things look online reflect the overall reality, but in fact this is "fog of war" thinking. I say if you hate the game, say so and why. And if you love it, enjoy it. I'm not perturbed by people having opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l Xenoes l Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Both the Halo 3 and Halo Reach forums on Bungie's site proved that you can't make every one happy. If there wasn't load outs there would be people complaining that this is the same thing as all the other games. I love that 343 did with the game. I love the load outs so I can pick what I spawn with not what the game type wants me to use. If they don't want the damn load outs go play Pro Slayer where you spawn with what it allows. I've found I'm a lot better with the Carbine then the BR so I'm glad I can pick that instead of having to use a weapon I'm not as good with as I was in Halo 2,3. But, like I said before no matter how good a game is people will always find something to ***** and complain about. If you don't like the game turn it in and go buy something else instead of going onto the forums and whine about stuff that you can't do anything about.
