This is what is wrong with gaming these days, don't preorder H5 hold Microsoft accountable!

[b]Don't Pre Order Halo 5 Guardians Until Halo MCC Multiplayer Is saved from Low Playlist Populations[/b] I'm sure this won't do much but this guys videos need to become more well known, he brings up a lot of good points and backs up his claims with facts that he can confirm. I'm not saying to believe everything he says; but you should watch a few of his videos and think about the things he talks about so you can come to your own conclusion. No game should suffer the way this one has, this one the least of all and something needs to be done about it Microsoft has lied and stolen from you. MCC isn't the only game this is happening to either every AAA dev these days seems to have some kind of scheme going on behind the scenes and it's ruining gaming.

  • This dude might actually be retarded. You can tell he isn't all there a minute into the video with his restaurant reference which is so bad it's laughable. Then he proceeds to say that the community is only going to shrink. How is that gonna happen? I may have been in a drunken stupor but I'm almost 100% postive that a major patch was released to mix almost all the major online issues. Why would the community shrink if it is working? Wouldn't it actually grow due to players returning? He also claims they don't want to work on it anymore. Really does he honestly believe that? I only ask because they are adding OTSD to the collection and releasing another patch in april. How is that not continuing to work on it? This guy literally wasted too much time making this video. He is obviously just trying to find something to hate now because 343 is stepping up. Every point he made was invalid and this guy should not be a puplar you tuber.

      • Nothing 343i did implies they are pushing MCC under the rug. Yes, it was broken and people can hold it over 343i's heads if they want. However, if you honestly think 343i is leaving MCC in the dust, you drink at least as much bleach as this dobbins kid or more. They released a patch which fixed 90% of network issues. (not to be praised, it should've worked from the start.) Why would 343i work to add new playlists in rotations and continue to implement network improvements? On top of that, people are being given approximately $20-30 of stuff for free simply for having 343i fail them. 1 month of gold, odst dlc, and lifetime exclusive emblems or w/e. I personally preordered the collector's and limited editions of h5 since the beta showed 343i listened. We did not like loadouts and crap that was in h4. The limited edition is a definite buy. The collector's edition I may cancel depending on what is in it. Halo is my favorite series of all time and I will continue to play the franchise until the end. Amazing campaigns, fun multiplayer, unrivaled forge/custom games, and firefight/spartan ops/any new game mode. Anyone who is delusional enough to believe 343i is deliberately screwing us over with MCC does not deserve to play such a great series.

        • The year 2014 shattered what little faith I had left in game developers who work on big named franchises. It was a hopeless string of disappointments time and time again. If I ever pre-order a game again, it will be pre-ordered only a week until launch every time. I will never again support any game by purchasing it months in advance. I no longer have any trust left to give... To those of you here who are defending 343 I ask why? When you defend Halo 5 I ask why? Being on the Destiny forums I assume you understand the depths of the lies these developers feed to us. If you're preordering Halo 5 months in advance, or have already done so please tell me why you have faith in 343. As far as I can tell I have no reason to trust them until they've developed and delivered a fully functional quality game. I will be giving Dice a shot because of the work they've done to fix Battlefield 4. I won't be purchasing Hardline, but I intend to pick up Star Wars Battlefront in stores. I apologize in advance if this has offended anyone who defends 343. I loved the Halo franchise under Bungie, and I would love to see Halo become and industry leading franchise under 343. However, until they prove themselves capable of doing so, I will make no show of faith as I did when purchasing Halo 4 (I gave them a shot eh).

        • Interesting video, he brings up some very good points. He also isn't blinded by fanboyism.

          • Scheme? I don't usually respond to conspiracy theorists, but... You know telling people to not do something they've been doing for many years isn't going to work? If a game has bugs, it doesn't make it a bad game. Mechanics are what usually makes a game. Cutscenes. Story. Combat. When they work, a game is fun. I advise against preorders for everyone, but not because of bugs, but for price. Having a more "polished" game is just a happy side effect.

            I think a big issue everyone is missing is that pre-ordering is an idiotic and unnecessary practice. How hard is it to wait two weeks to see if that shiny collectors box set, which [i]isn't[/i] going to go out of production anytime soon, is for a shit/broken game that you're going to regret buying. This is for games in general, especially when the industry promotes selling cut content as day-one DLC, or with the mindset of sell it now and patch it later. It's stupid, and you're making every gamer suffer for it.

              • STFU Halo is the best lololol. No seriously though, I've been having so much fun on MCC collection with my friends after the last patch in multiplayer. Also working through legendary campaign still.

                • If Xboners were going to hold Microsoft accountable, they wouldn't own an Xbone to begin with. Asking an MS fanboy to be reasonable and a competent consumer is inherently contradictory.

                  • Bro, I hate to tell you this but people will continue to pre-order the game no matter what. Not everyone can be an intelligent consumer.

                    • That video will fall on deaf ears here. This forum has become 343's kingdom of fanboys apparently. Even people on Waypoint are more critical than the infestation of apologists on this forum.

                        • Is Bdobbings lol i knew it. Since he did the destiny vid he's now bashing halo 5 with the "we can change the gamin world hurrr" bs. This is worst than watching pewdiepie play indiegames.
