It's obvious that you've fired important people. We can just look at the termination of Martin O'Donnell, but with the hot "fix" of today you just gave it away that you obviously fired EVERYONE WITH FRACKING BRAINS that worked on Halo 1-3 that knew how to properly make a game. Both mechanically and story wise. The loot drop rate was shit and you know it, and what do you do? You reduce the rate of engrams dropping. Then you also get rid of the loot cave. I don't know if you've heard, but April fools was over 5 months ago, and you're too damn early for next year. But if this isn't a joke, and this is a serious fix, WHAT THE -blam!- IS WRONG WITH YOU?! How can you go from a fantastic story like Halo 1, or fantastically fun multiplayer like Halo 2, to this? I don't like doing the same strikes over and over again with them being so predictable. Same goes for the story. The multiplayer is so unbalanced it makes the people over at Infinity Ward look like they knew what they were doing with CoD: Ghosts. And yes it is unbalanced because 9 times out of 10 you're going to see the guy with the level 27 character beat the shit out of the guy with the level 12 character just based on the fact that the level 27 character has either a legendary or exotic gun. while the 12 has to deal with a PoS common level gun. The controls are nice and snappy, and the environments are gorgeous. But they are not enough to have kept me playing, and to make the grind even HARDER for my 27 character is outright ignorant. I was saying I was going to wait until the first expansion to find out if my game was worth the $60, but you've now proven it is not with your guys' incompetence in something as simple as increasing the likeliness of a legendary engram dropping or guaranteeing that when you get one you get at least a legendary item for your class. Bravo at alienating ALL of your original fans.

I agree with some of your points but please speak for yourself about "alienating original fans". It's taking way too long to get some of these issues fixed but at least they're addressing it.
