Why do the 343i-haters attack people just for liking something different? Why are they so butthurt over what doesn't concern them?

>implying people have no reason to dislike *SOME* content 343 makes.

No, they can dislike whatever they want. They have no reason to attack people who like 343's content, or flame them for liking 343.

circlejerk

I could be considered a "343i-hater," but I don't attack anyone over it. You can like what you want to like. I'll tell you why I don't like it, but at the end of the day it's all opinion either way.

Dito.
All we can do is to try and illustrate the reasoning behind "hating 343i". Though hate is such a strong word. Dislike is more appropriate.

Every AAA studio nowadays...

The worst part is that alot of younger gamers are getting used to it, and even accept it as OK.

These are sad times...

Usually those attempts end up with them saying:
- I need to get the phallus out of my mouth (apparently having a deep voice implies that)
- They had coitus with my mother
- It doesn't make a difference, one sale won't make them stop their ways
- Etc...

People dis-like change.

Pretty sure 343 wasn't even in charge of MCC's development. If we have someone to hate hate MS game studios for that particular failure.


If that change is applying CoD mechanics into an arena shooter. Then I don't blame them. If they actually came up with original ideas then the "change" would be taken much better. Also if those changes are taking away splitscreen. Then I understand why people dislike "change".

Why do their remarks matter to you? They're console users, they should be beneath that consideration

Half of us probably have an Xbox One.

inb4 your circlejerk buddies show up

Because 343i dun no how to make halo and bungie do.

its not that this hate thing was long before that

but idky i like them except this

He's saying MCC isnt the problem and that the quality of Halo 4 overall was a factor. He's also saying he likes the art style 343 has except for stuff like the shotgun.

Didn't Certain Affinity and Sabre3D do MCC? Pretty sure there was another third party involved too.

Several companies did MCC, which includes 343i, BLUR, Certain Affinity, and Saber Interactive. However, 343i was mainly hands off, really only doing assets for the h2a mp and h5g beta work. Saber did H2A SP, CA did H2A MP environments, Blur did cutscenes, and some other company did the ui and combination effort. I think another did networking but i could be wrong.

If I remember correctly that's exactly how it was. In fact the only real work 343 did was all the porting (I think) and making sure everything would run at 1080p and 60fps. As for the MCC being "broken", Microsoft is more to blame than 343i considering they pretty much rushed them to get MCC out on H2's 10th Anniversary. Hell, the same thing pretty much happened with H2 back in 04, which explained why we ended up with things like the BXR trick and Superbounce.

Alice, what have you been up to lately?

Did u try Indeed.com when looking for jobs?

My favourite Halo is H3, does that make me a "Bungie Fanboy"?

Yes

matt y u do dis

Skinny pills don't work. Exercise.

I don't hate you, and I certainly wouldnt wqnt you dead.

Afterall what would fatman be without robin.

I am excited to see what 343 has in-store for Halo 5. I agree that MCC was a mess on launch and months after its release, but I do have faith in 343 and want to see them succeed in taking over the Halo franchise. I do mean Succeed as in "win" the fans back and bring new ones. Although the removing of split screen in H5 is a step back to those who enjoy weekend lan parties.

because some people are egotistical and want to feel better than others, its simply how humans are. if you guys like the 343 stuff most of us wont rub it in your face, but it goes both ways. we get people from your side that try to tell us that bungie halo was utter crap and 343 is better.

people argue cause they want confrontation


i will give my opinions on the new series again.

i do not like 343's artstyle whatsoever. none of their models/designs feel practical and somewhat grounded in modern science/theory like bungies were. and imo the human tech in halo 4 in a lot of the models looks like they have taken a step back technologically.

the armors have random detail tossed in for no reason other that they think it looks cool (imo the halo 4+ armors look ugly) anniversary looks good but thats because 343 didnt make anniversary, for the most part all the art was certain affinity and sabre interactive.

all in all it feels like they are pandering to the kids who think graphics are the most important thing in a game. it feels like they care more about how the game looks than how it plays. lots of people compared it to cod, it wasnt like cod but it was like halo either to me, the music didnt gel with me (they ruined the anniversary soundtrack for halo 2).

overall i was not impressed with halo 4 at all. reach had me on edge but imo with a bunch of tweaks that game would have been perfect, and halo 4 made it look like a masterpiece.

halo 5 is interesting but i have yet to play it so i wont complain yet. i dont like they wayt they are taking the game, encounters are too fast now imo, but thats what the masses seem to want now they want instant gratification and dgaf about working to win, they want to be insta pros instead of practicing...

all in all... i miss the old days of fps games

So naive...

What Altheros said.
Though I'd like to add:
"bungie was halo glory"
"became halo phony with odst and reach"

I get why people rag on 343 for gameplay and some art style choices, but I've gotta say that Halo 4 was a great step froward in story telling that a old franchise really needed.

Ummm not really. I would have preferred if the librarian looked less predictable.
