Who thinks halo series is going downhill?

Post » Thu Sep 27, 2012 12:56 am

Before I start- I'm talking about multiplayer, campaign, Spartan ops and forge look epic.

Wow, from what I've seen from halo 4's Multiplayer online, it seems to be turning into a CoD clone :(
For those who aren't up to date, here is a short list;
After getting a certain amount of kills, you get weapon drops
Sprint is a permanent feature as well as another Armour Ability
The armour for customisation.... It looks awful! The helmets don't look like halo anymore with 3 or 4 exceptions.
You get 10 points per kill now....
.... And bonus points for needler, rocket etc kills.now they encourage people to use nooby weapons!
The armour affects gameplay now instead of being purely aesthetic.
A killcam so now you know where the sniper was who killed you.

Will add more when I remember them.(note: don't have a go at me about being a cod player, i despise it. But multiplayer in the new game, the online play is turning absolute s**t now)
Anyone agree?

I couldn't care less about multiplayer, especially in first-person shooters. As long as the single-player is good I'll be happy.

I never even liked the multiplayer on Halo. I hated that jumping was one of the only things a lot of players did to win (of course while shooting). Ya I know if you were a good shot you could easily get people when they jumped, but the jumping still annoyed the heck out of me. I don't like COD but I still like its multiplayer way more than Halo's multiplayer. Also the vehicles in Halo were very annoying. That's why I don't play Battlefield multiplayer either.

None of what you stated really seems all that bad tbh and I am a pretty big Halo 3 multiplayer fan. Just seems like more RPG elements bleeding out into the FPS genre imo.

6 or so games into a series and a new developer and you're surprised it's going downhill?

Like I said, multilayer is downhill, not campaign. I loved all the previous multiplayers (especially 3 but now it's just a mix of popular games to try and make this more popular. It's a shame to see my favourite game going down the drain :(

actually this, 343 actually cares about its fanbase, they create lore and actually balance multiplayer... and not to mention developer mode / Forge mode... its real user friendly too

I love 343 "i think thats their new name". I prefer halo to CoD anyday of the week. It actually requires skill and has a good amount of balance. If anything id say they are going uphill but thats just me. I just hope the Halo 4 Reboot is a success

p.s. PLEASE BRING BACK ARBITER!!! PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Well, in halo reach, i spend all my time in forge or campaign, i lose interest in multiplayer very quickly anyway. the most i ever do is customs lobbys every so often, i spend my time on minecraft/fallout.
