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

I'm not even interested in multiplayer any longer, I just log on to play Spartan Ops since I'm interested in the story. Same for Halo 4 itself. Didn't like how the multiplayer was looking, so I set my expectations low. I'll still get Halo 5 I think, but just for the campaign/story.

that's what they get for trying to make a game for the audience that's gonna leave you in a weeks time.

Loadouts Kill cams stupid rank systems Weapons like saw.[/quote] Not to mention perks and gun Camos. Also OP, I'm not surprised, Halo is great and all but it's not a fresh idea anymore. It would be great if Microsoft gained some new IPs.

Wow. Didnt think it was possible for the flood to cut under the idiocy levels of which waypoint is, even they know better than this.

Quite logical that the population dropped after this year's other gargantuan shooter sequel appeared, considering how (mysteriously) popular it is.

Ouch...but I can see why people have stopped playing it. I stopped playing it because the game got boring waaay too fast. Halo 4's matchmaking didn't stick with me.

You have to admit that Halo 4 is still pretty -BLAM- rad. Maybe you don't like it as much as Reach/3/2/CE but it is still it's own game and fun to play. My two cents. No one prolly cares but I thought I'd give it a go lol
-
Not surprised. Not that Halo 4 is a bad game, but come on. BlOps 2 came out a week after. I'm not saying that Cod is better, it is just hyped more.
-
Not surprised the game is a slap in the face to the halo community.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] xMLGx Pro I never quite understood why people obsess with a online game's "population" numbers. So long as there are ~100 people online, you're pretty much good to go.[/quote] Because other people not playing the game apparently justifies why they shouldn't play the game.

Haha, it's less than Reach six months ago.

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