Peter.halo 2 was best halo
Sh4dowThat's because no one liked Reach even when it was new. Didn't Halo 3 have like 20 times as many players as Reach and 4 at its peak? CE, 2, and 3 are far better than Reach and 4 and people know that, MCC will be far more populated than Reach, and I assume it will last for some years. Also, dedicated servers = minimal lag, so even if you get stuck being paired with people across the ocean in a few years when the population declines, you won't have all the lag present in 360 games.
>inb4 accused of being 343/M$ shill
Sh4dowSupposedly there is going to be a PC release, just not right away because they want people to buy at Xbone for it. A website (I think a country-specific version of amazon) listed MCC for PC and the same website 'mistakenly' posted some other game that ended up actually existing, and they were the first to leak it. I believe 343 also said that PC is not out of the question, they just want to focus on Xbone first.
springzgive it another week and it's all good. Not sure how you can consider yourself screwed out of money when its been 10 days. It's not like your initial plan was to only play for 10 days and then sell it.
SKI.INGIt's classic 343. They have proven themselves incompetent so many times this shouldn't be a surprise to you.
CaptainObvious.No, but when I pay 60 dollars for a game, it should fucking work. Minor bugs, fine. But they released a patch with dozens upon dozens of bug fixes. Things that absolutely were know when they released the game. Which means I payed to be a beta tester because they either didnt want to spend the time or money to do it themselves. Which is absolute horseshit. Dont tout your game as productiin ready on all fronts when you know its not
Thats a bit kf an exaggeration. The studio has released four games prior to this and none have failed this miserably.
SKI.INGDude Halo 4 was one big beta test for Halo 5 basically, and they put it out as a standalone game. The support for it 1 month after it launched was terrible, matchmaking servers/UI was terrible, and every update or map release made it apparent that they were out of their league and didn't know what they were doing in regards to Halo. Yes, I still played the heck out of that game because I love Halo, but I will say I haven't bought an Xbone yet because the main reason I have the systems is for Halo, and I don't trust 343. MCC, and Halo 5 both are giving off the same vibe as Halo 4 did with how they handle problems.

las.You're failing to make a distinction between game devs and publishers, which is unfair.
Developers surprisingly do actually want to make the best and most complete game before its release - unfortunately, though, at this time of the year publishers of those games rush shit out of the door to meet holiday season deadlines, resulting in typically incomplete, sub-tested, and buggy games.
Publishers are aware of this too, yet to them the potential loss from bad press over the release of their incomplete game is preferred over the estimated greater loss of not even having your game on the market for the holiday season.
It's shit, but it will get fixed. Just be patient
