Or the Waypoint forums for that matter? While I don't use the forums often, I had no problems when I did use them. The stat tracking works and has a clean look to it. The avatars are a bit dull, though. As for 343, I'd say Halo 4 is a pretty good game. It definitely had more cons than previously Halo games(Forge makes me sad), but it is still a fun game to play. I would also like to add that I made a Flood map and found out you can't have weapons spawn in Flood. So, other than a crappy forge and no Infection, Halo 4 is great in my eyes. Halo: Anniversary and its graphic switch option is one of the coolest things I've seen in a remake. I enjoyed Forward Unto Dawn. I am sure I will enjoy Halo 5. What did they do to upset you? Edit: I didn't know that I could vote on my own poll and so I clicked on the 3rd option.

  • The Good: - The Forerunner Saga (Silentium in particular has toppled Hyperion as my all-time favourite sci-fi novel) - Halo Evolutions - Halo Waypoint - Halo 4's campaign (specifically: story, music, character development and visuals) - Forward Unto Dawn - Combat Evolved Anniversary - Forge Island - Spartan Ops Episodes 6-10 - DLC map packs (I really like the Majestic and Castle packs, Crimson can suck a -blam!- though) The Bad: - "Evolution" of Halo's gameplay (minus sprint as a natural feature) - Most of Halo 4's armour (though there are a fair few pieces I do like) - Weapon balancing (at least the Bulletin pointed to an update for precision weapons and vehicles "soon") - Implementation of the music in the campaign (the music is so -blam!-ing good, but you can barely hear it) - CSR (really, what's the point if it's not going to show up in the game?) - Removal of vital Custom Games options (Infection especially is unacceptable) - Removal of Forge features like precision editing and zooming - Promethean and Covenant AI in campaign - 'Return to battlefield, you cum-guzzling semen demon, for trying to leave the map. This isn't Halo 2, you know?!' - Removal of Firefight (though, the way I see it, FF will never be good unless it bitch-slaps you into working as a team like in ODST). The Ugly: - Glasslands - Halo Encyclopedia (not done by 343, but it is linked to their name. Not only did Tobias Buckell get a lot of things wrong, most of it it copied from Halopedia) - Everything following the first 33 minutes of the GDC panel That's all I've got right now. To put it basically, for me, the stuff they do well, they do really well while the stuff that they don't do so well falls flat on its face. I definitely think that people are overly zealous and melodramatic in their 'hate' though, they know deep down that once Halo 5 comes out they'll be saying that "Halo 4 was so much better" and so on - as the pattern has been ever since Halo 2...
