EDIT: [b]4.December.2012 -[/b] The numbers are still falling, now more than ever.

Im not surprised. Reach failed, why would Halo 4 do any better when it took what made it bad and made it worse.

It's also a tough month for a lot of people to find time to game. Traveling for Thanksgiving, college finals, high school tests before X Mas break... Personally, yesterday was the first day I found time to play any game in like 4 weeks.

population decrease is what happens when you have an all around gun (DMR) being used outside it's intended area and all the other crap in this game (lag, incompetent teammates, etc). Even with a team you still deal with the lag or some other gimmick. Games have been online for at least 20 years now you would think the infrastructure could be more stable. That's the main reason why the lag happens. The USA has poor network infrastructure when compared to other countries which is sad really seeing as the country is the one who founded and started the internet in the first place. Economic wise IMO if they would rebuild the network infrastructure you would see an economic increase (more money) because information can be sent and received faster. I believe the US is in the 20's area for internet service. Japan is first. They pay 5 dollars in American dollars (Whatever that is in yen. Don't know just know the American value.) for 20Mbps up and down and that's just the starting package.

I didn't expect any different.

Population counts =/= a game's popularity

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] The Random [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] RighteousTyrant OP has apparently never seen post-launch population trends for any game at all, because if he had he would know that this is basically expected. [/quote] This, clearly.[/quote] Wait. Didn't people say the same about Reach but Reach never went back up in population?

Nothing about Halo 4 was copied from CoD! Nothing in CoD is original.

Hurr, the first three games were hyped, complained of, and then liked so that must mean it is like that for them all right? Nope. Halo Reach is still awful, ODST is still pretty meh, Halo 1-3 are still amazing, and nobody cares about Halo Wars and it is still bad.[/quote]

You better watch out guys. These Halo 4 threads might be considered spam eventually. And I hope they are, because this is getting kind of pathetic. It wouldn't be so bad if the threads weren't so freaking ignorant...

That's about where Reach stood when Halo 4 first came out . . . Wow.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Noshotskill Can I point that even Halo 3's population total dropped this much after its launch week ended. Major releases always see the largest player totals during their launch week. After people beat the game, they move back towards their favorites. The only people who stick with the new game are fans of the series. [/quote] Nope. Halo 3 was consistently in the top most played spot on Xbox Live and was in direct competition with CoD 4 the entire time. In my opinion, Halo is seeing this failure because it is no longer unique. Its gameplay style is now in more relation to CoD, Battlefield, and Medal of Honor rather than being its own unique arena shooter and so people get tired of the same type of gameplay every single year. I've found myself on neither Black Ops nor Halo 4, I've been going to games like Skyrim, MK9, Castlevania, Minecraft, Red Dead, etc. The reason why? They are unique, they are their own games. Halo claims nothing special or unique anymore as it was the only popular console arena shooter of our recent time.

Regardless, I need to write that one down. OT: Black Ops II just came out. Most players went there to try out the new game. Give it a few weeks. Some will be back.
