Just curious what the general consensus is around here... Personally I think it feels way too much like COD in a lot of aspects (and no I'm not saying that because of loadouts/ordanance because I do realize these were not created by the COD series). The other thing is the skill level seems to have completely eroded. I'm not trying to sound like a god here, infact I'm sure most of you are way better than me. My matchmaking K/D/A is something like 1900 Kills / 1000 Deaths / 900 Assists. I've only ever seen one person with a better KD Ratio and the one game I played against them he camped with camo + shotgun the entire game. Everyone else seems happy to run around like a maniac and just trade kills the entire game.

Just curious what you guys think about the game. And also what some of your grievances are with how it currently is...

It was fun for a couple months. Just entertainment though, not much competition to it.

I actually enjoy Halo 4 and think it has a lot of potential, but Reach just killed the franchise and it never recovered. People seem to forget that Halo 2 and 3 were shit when they first came out. It took some tweaking/updates to get it where it was a great game.

IMO 2 months in Halo 4 is a "better" game than Halo 2 or 3 were 2 months in. Not saying it would reach the level of prior ones at their prime, but I don't see why people gave up on it so quickly.

i just dont understand why they added that feature in reach of losing accuracy when you move. and the jump height is way lower. it's like they are trying to make it more realistic. but what does realism have to do with 7 foot men in space suits fighting aliens in the future...

I wouldn't consider it the worst Halo yet but it does need some work. The lack of smaller maps irritates me though and the fact that there's no weapons on map but that's minor.

I suppose this is true, you do need to give them some time to tweak the game. The only thing that concerns me is that without it being on the MLG Circuit it won't ever have that competitive edge to it.

I hope they are able to resurrect the competitive community, but I think Reach ruined it for good. I remember playing Halo2/3 and basically every player having a mic, calling out things, etc. Now you could probably call out 'one shot' and nobody would understand what you mean...
