Halo 4 Today - The Titanic Still Sinking
First off let me just say that as much as I despise this new layout, I do enjoy the addition of image posting. I mean look at that beauty. It compliments this thread so well. Oh and I made my own tag up. #Eaglethread. Heh.
Any way, I figured what better way to make my way into this Bungie.NEXT than with a good old fashion Halo 4 thread. With this new selective viewing option I'm assuming this will keep out a lot of the crap that usually filtered in. As you can see on [url=http://halocharts.com/2012/chart/dailypeakpopulation/all]Halo Charts[/url], the population is hovering at under 100,000 right now. If you figure that a lot of this is most likely still boost from Christmas, I imagine it will continue to go down again soon. With an apparent fixation on screwing the community, 343i has still yet to address major issues to the game. Shoddy servers this far in are just disgraceful. In stead they chose to waste their time making trucks with Ford and Virgin Gaming.
The price obviously has not and will not go back up from it's drop down to $40. All of this combines to make Halo 4 one of the most disappointing releases of all time. Hopefully the folks over at 343i and Microsoft learn their lesson about cutting corners and out sourcing 95% of the actual work for the game. What are your thoughts on this? Do you believe Halo 4 is on it's last legs? Is this the beginning of a sad ending for the series? Let's Talk.

1 ReplyI find the main problem with halo 4 is it's too easy. Not for me but for everyone. You get power weapons too easily and too frequently, along with the random spawns this gives the player no need to consider map control and therefore anyone with half a brain and a good trigger-finger can do well. The instant respawns means death isn't as punishing for the team as it used to be, especially on smaller maps which encourages a reckless and thoughtless attitude with minimal penalties. Halo 4 may not take less skill than other halo games, but it takes less thought and that's why the gameplay is so boring, it doesn't stimulate the mind enough.
