Do u belive social media over-rated 343's ability?

No, both the media and 343i told us exactly what we were going to get, which is exactly what we got. People just never gave them a chance; from the beginning, even before Halo 4 was announced, people were assuming they were going to do terrible. The ensuing confirmation bias of this community is staggering; it was never likely that this community would enjoy anything 343i put out, no matter what it was. It just so happened that Halo 4 [I]did[/I] have a lot of problems, which was inevitable given 343i's internal situation at the time, which in turn gave everyone an excuse to bash on them far more than any civil community should have allowed.

No. I have absolutely no sh1tting clue how people were "crushingly disappointed" by Halo 4's everything before launch aside from them being over idealistic idiots. People like Darkside Eric, MrR46, and company were all skeptical and what they said would happen [i]did[/i] happen. Ordnance drops, specializations, it was all [i]laid out in front of you people.[/i] And yet you still couldn't make the connection, and were somehow disappointed. It's your faults more than anything.

343 over-rated 343's abilities

I think it was the usual culprit, ppl getting too hyped up and letting their expectations rise to absurd levels

H4 was pretty much exactly how I expected it to be give or take a few things. I enjoy it. People got mad because they advertised their product and then claimed that they were lied to. That's pretty funny.

5 RepliesI think 343 did a lot of that to themselves when you had Frankie and BullShit Angel out there telling us that Halol 4 would be this amazing game that would be the Halo that would start a new trilogy and take everything we all loved about halo and make it better. The fact that they promised so much content and "good" changes, then couldn't deliver, says a lot about the ego vs. talent of 343. Also that they thought that somehow they'd make a better Halo than the company that spent the past decade doing it, well... that's just ignorant.

No. I loved the game.

14 RepliesTheir perceived short comings come from their rookie positions more than anything. Whoever thought hiring Traviss to write Halo novels or let Brian Reed write his Palmer fan fiction as Spartan Op's story is insane.

No I don't follow BS social media. All too much of it is used for self promotion and false advertising anyhow.

No, not really. We had all the information on the gameplay before the game came out.
