343i - A Look At What's Wrong Right Now

This has been a trend for a while now, yet as of late it seems to have become more prevalent. I of course mean the attitude of "Well it's their product, they can do what they want, you get what you get". Why on Earth would anyone want to promote an ideal like that? Yes, it is VERY prevalent in the video game industry lately. More corners cut, less product shipped, more unfinished products shipped. Why keep going like this? If you bought a TV and it shipped lets say without a few imputs working, less packing material was used, and the manual was basic with the complete one offered online, would you still buy this TV? What is the company promised to eventually fixed the issues at an unset date, because they were so proud of their TV that they just NEEDED to ship it out in this condition. Would you buy this TV? It's okay, even though it's not finished the TV is still full price. I'm sure that's fine with you though, it's a new company and their first TV, even though it's entirely run by industry veterans. Oh and they offered a higher definition, but then almost at the last minute made every TV the same HD. Those who bought the HD model were not compensated however, but they got a nice box and a complete manual out of the deal! One last thing, the TV randomly powers off your cable and internet. You can still watch DVDs and stuff, so I'm sure you don't mind. Halo 4 is this TV. 343i is the TV manufacturer. Why are any of you defending levels of BS like this? If it were any other product the company would fail and be ostracized until they got it together again. Stop defending someone that shipped a half finished product and cut corners. They have no excuses and you shouldn't give them any. So why do you? tldr; 343i shipped Halo 4 half finished. If someone shipped a half finished TV you wouldn't buy it. Why are you putting up with this?

There was a website made to just hate on Halo 2.[/quote]Huh. Interesting, I suppose that's expected given the drastic changes. As far as Halo 3 goes though I can say that there was no real backlash. There were the recon guys, the I got banned guys, and the I got killed by a BR this game is trash guys. There weren't really any "haters" though, at least from what I remember from back in the day. Yes I will refer to 08' as back in the day.[/quote] Can't say. I decided to just play the game instead of visiting the forums. I should have done the same thing with Reach. I seriously hate going to game forums because they are practically littered with "This game sucks ass, fix it!" and everyone whining about how much the last game was so much better. Every. Single. Gaming community does this. Not joking each sequel will have this huge hate train going. Don't believe me? Go to the Bethesda forum. People hate on Skyrim non-stop even though it won game of the year. Go to the mass effect forum. I remember people religiously hating ME2 now they freaking love it and are now hating on ME3. Go to the Call of Duty forum people are probably hating on BLOPS2. I don't like Halo 4 either op but each sequel always has a huge blacklash because different people have different opinions.[/quote]Oh I am not doubting that, but there is no denying that the hate is worse for Halo 4 as people will slowly come to realize it's flaws. Every game of course has it's flaws, and diehard fans will always rage, but this is a different beast at this point. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Connor Kenway 99 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Black Eagle X99 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Connor Kenway 99 You think I spend more time in I hate halo 4 threads than you? I havent even being stalking this thread. I just saw that someone had bumped it while I was in another thread. And no eagle, it is pathetic. You write out an essay saying how much you hate a videogame. I even gave you advice. Let it go. Go get another game. Read that book youve never gotten the chance to finish. Play dishonored idk just move on.[/quote]You make it sound like I sit in my room for 12 hours a day plotting on how I am going to next insult Halo 4. Contrary to what you may think I am not the crappiest super villain known to man. I am a man disappointed in the poor quality of the newest game in a series I grew up playing. That being said this thread isn't about the gameplay itself, it is about the fact that they shipped a half finished game at full price and have no set date to fix it. They also screwed over most LE buyers. It is BS business and that is what I am mad about.[/quote] OP Im sorry but with all the I hate halo 4 threads you create I cant help but think that is you. Like I said, let it go. Move one. Play dishonored dammit.[/quote]The hate threads started after I watched the leaked campaign after having the ending spoiled for me. It was so terrible that it killed any excitement I had for the game. You are welcome to check that if you want, I guarantee the first thread I made was the week the game leaked. It's a lingering disappointment. I have been playing other games, I haven't touched Halo 4 for longer than one or two games in about 2 weeks now. You are also missing the fact that I made this thread after the onslaught of people defending 343i for all the missing content and such. Praise the game all you want, but any other company would have much more backlash for this by now.
