343i has balls, Bungie does not
I've been pretty skeptical about Halo 4 ever since it was announced, but now I'm convinced the Halo franchise is in good hands.
343 has added more to Halo 4 than all the Halo games combined. (that was an exaggeration). They are, however, taking risks with all the new features they are adding. What has struck me most is the new infection gametype. I've always wondered: Why doesn't Bungie just add REAL infection mode? It's because they take the safe route and they are uncertain of their decisions.
Halo Reach, for example, was (in MY opinion and many others) a disappointment. It seemed like Bungie wanted to add new features, but they were scared to go too far. Armor Abilities and Bloom are not terrible, but I have always felt that it was never their true intention to add those features. The whole game felt... it just didn't feel like something Bungie would do. Halo Reach was bad because it was moderate.
Bungie, don't disappoint me anymore.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] RyanW [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] RaptorSevereP88 I'm responding to what you said about 343 having more balls than Bungie. Like I said, Bungie is making something completely new. 343 Isn't. Period. I'm through here.[/quote] Never said they did and you still never answered my question[/quote] I meant that I was responding to the OP, not you, my mistake. Even still, I've spoken my piece. I feel that it will be better than Halo 4. That's my honest opinion on the subject.

Excellent point. I always thought something was off about Reach, just not from that perspective. Although now that you said it, it makes sense. Then again, some of it doesn't. I mean considering they did things like bloom and armour lock, those were all risks. It might have not paid off for Bungie, but it did for 343i. They're learning from Reach's mistakes and improving on the good stuff.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gen Petitt More then lolReach and 3.

You art implying that thou dislikes Reach and wisheth that 4 be better than 3. I see ye hate MMO's for whatever reason, does thou bias shield the truth?

So in the end Bungie has balls. Everything in halo was created by bungie. What you are saying is like someone painting the Mona Lisa and them someone else adding a few strokes and saying that he did all the work.

Yeah Bungie compromised way too much with Reach. If you go into customs you can push the gameplay to its highest or most Halo like potential. Otherwise it's kind of jumbled, but fun nonetheless.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OneDeadCaveMan Wait, did Bungie actually say Destiny is an MMO? Why would they hire PS3 teams if they're doing an MMO?[/quote] Bungie is trying to get the best people they can find to work on their new universe. It makes sense. I'm glad they're doing it. Plus, it's a multi console game.

I agree with Bungie not having much balls. I feel like they were pretty ballsy with Halo 2, but after that, they just held back on taking many risks in the series.
