Any normal job, if you are THIS bad at it, they fire you.

I agree. The idea that all players should play the hardest difficulty, and that there should be NO, NONE, match making at lower levels tells me that bungie just thinks that EVERY player can play with the top 10%. We are not all equally skilled, equally geared. If only a few percent of the player base are doing end game content, that is OK. If Bungie wants more players involved with end game content, you have to make it easier for us less skilled players. Bungie, however, cannot just make the game harder and expect all the low and id skilled players to play like the top 10%. People do not operate that way. So many of us unskilled and under geared players have just left. Missed revenue targets 2 years ago and laid off 100 devs. Last year more player loss, more missed revenue goals, more layoffs. EOF worst expansion in the history of the game, worse than CoO; fewest players on line, I would imagine lowest revenues. Bungie refusing to fix the things the bulk pof the player base is unhappy about. The 300 bonus catch up chest full of weapons and gear with bad perks and bad stats. I kept one piece of gear from that mess. I could not make a build with what they game me. Bungie does not care.

Marathon is DOA, it has no future. Especially after spending the last weekend playing Arc Raiders. No way Marathon can beat Arc Raiders.

Well said… many of us feel the same way

People still play this game?

It was 343 that destroyed Halo with: * The title update no one asked for in Reach * Removing like half it's playlists * Putting in trashy forged maps into modes that didn't have them * Trying to copy COD in Halo 4 * The weapon tuning that made BR/ AR the only loadout everyone used * Adding enough micro transactions into H5 that it basically became P2W in Warzone and Firefight * The insanely slow leveling system of H5 * Changing how every gun worked and converting some into "power weapons" when some were actually worse than before * Neglecting most of MCC at worst and just restoring cut content at best. CE multiplayer is unplayable, same as H2 and H3 unless your bullets are actually doing damage when they're clearly supposed to and you're not getting spawn killed for 80% of your deaths. H4 and Reach stopped being fun near the end of the original games, and H2A was almost completely ignored despite it being a major selling point of MCC * Halo infinite's scummy monetization * Replacing most of the beloved guns with downgrades in Infinite like the Bulldog or a plasma pistol that can't EMP * Changed how several guns worked again and kept the potential head shot damage for EVERY GUN from H5 while also keeping bloom and recoil too in a game that now had less AA/ bullet magnetism AND much faster movement * Nerfed every vehicle's lethality * Highlighting enemies * And FOV slider can so easily screw you over with how close to tunnel vision and reticle size changes with it I could probably go on. All bungie did was sell Halo to 343 and THEY ruined it to the point this supposed combat evolved remake i highly doubt will accomplish more than just give a small boost in their budget for their next live service cash cow.

I'm no longer annoyed, no longer sad, I'm just tired and fed up.[/quote] If you need to be addicted to a game in order to enjoy it… Actually, I don’t even know. Something of a combination of mental illness, and you need to find a more enjoyable game. Best of luck with both, I guess 🤣.

[quote]You did it, just like you did with Halo when you were done with it and wanted to make Destiny... You've destroyed Destiny enough that you'll be able to focus solely on Marathon soon.[/quote]Sir, Bungie made the best Halo game in the series to this day right before they left to make Destiny.

It's more fun watching ads on YouTube than playing d2
