By Bonnie Ross, Head of 343 Industries
Wow... so the company that took over what Bungie started came out with a public THANK YOU and somewhat of an apology.
Since the launch Halo - The Master Chief Collection the forums and internet have been bombed with Negative complaints regards to matchmaking issues and other bugs impacting players’ experience . Does this sound familiar Bungie ?
It should be no surprise that you lost half or more of your fan base because the state you left Destiny in .
Check out what 343 Industries did to keep calm the masses, and you will see what a little PR can do for a company and not come off as a Greedy Money Cow.
" This has been a humbling experience and highlighted how we as a studio can – and need – to do better for Xbox fans around the world. We are so grateful to our fans who have stood by our side and we appreciate all of your patience as we worked through these issues. As a token of our appreciation and to thank fans for the continued support and understanding, we will be offering the following items, for free, to anyone who has played Halo: The Master Chief Collection online since launch (11.11.14) through today (12.19.14).*
1 Month of Xbox Live Gold
Exclusive In-Game Nameplate
Exclusive In-Game Avatar
"Additionally, you’ve told us that you want more Halo 2: Anniversary multiplayer map content and Halo 3: ODST on Xbox One. As a future bonus, we’re going to make these happen and give them to you for free. "
WOW !!! Now thats what I call the Right Move. BUNGIE i'm not sure what you guys are doing but charging people for DLC knowing it was leaked that you with held content and then to SLAP your fans in the FACE you made sure that those that didn' t buy the DLC " the Dark Below " you made sure they were locked out of content for a whole week trying to force them to buy it.
What is wrong with you BUNGIE ? Your game is still Broken and your charging for DLC that should have been FREE.
343 Industries took over your Baby and from the looks of it they are well aware of what FANS can do for a company.
Again... Whats wrong with you BUNGIE ?

It's not like I loved Halo 4. But wooooooow the company that took over is way better. These forums are filled to the brim with hate on Bungie and all the flaw is Destiny. Instead of addressing the issues in their game, Bungie seems to be ignoring all the completely valid criticisms to their game. I like this game. It's fun. But it's not that great. Bungie took an awesome idea and gave us mediocrity. 343>bungie. I'll be trading this shell of a game in for the next halo. Unless Bungie makes changes. Which they won't.

1 ReplyDestiny never had problems at launch, sorry to burst your bubble.
-
4 RepliesOK lets see....they gave you garbage....yea garbage. LOL..... a nameplate and an Avatar? Wow....just wow. I would say that the extra month is something, except that, it's not really any sort of compensation for those who have yearly subs. That's like saying all the extra crap ( sparrow, guns, nameplates ect ) in Destiny is a bonus for Bungie's mistakes. Way to look like a blind fanboy.

I think this is my second post in this thread. Bonnie Ross is attractive for her age. Ray z ray you are a huge fan boy. Do me a favor and take care of my light work. Ask her out for me. I'm to busy. About to hit the gym and play destiny all day. Thanks sport

Please put a sock in it

Wow thats actually quite amazing. BUT youre blaming the wrong people. Bungie is not to blame for the release of an unfinished game. Activision made the deadline, activision caused the lead story writer to leave, activision you know those guys that package the same games every year with a few new twists and make money off CoD fanboys. Im sure bungie would give us the content if they had it. The game wasnt done for three months. It still isnt. Remember the queens missions? Yeah thats still missing. Strict deadlines = unfinished games. Fire the activision f---s who rushed this game.

1 ReplyDestiny had nothing to make up for. MCC was trash. They re released games bungie made and it was to complicated for them PR? oh you are precious. I'm sure they planned to release that stuff anyway they are just making the sheep feel good. Bonnie Ross is attractive for her age. That's about what she said, and halo stops. Teach me more about PR, precious

Ouch slapped in the face on your own forums
-
Your move bungie
-
I loved the first couple Halo games, but Destiny is so much better and will keep growing and getting better. Bungie needs to make back that $500 million and a shit ton more for this to be a success. They still have time to deliver and if they do, people will pay up.

4 RepliesIt should also be noted that Ubi Soft got smacked hard with the release of Assassin's Creed Unity and the many problems it suffered during launch. As a step in the right direction Ubisoft Apologizes For Assassin's Creed Unity With Free DLC. See full story here ; http://kotaku.com/ubisoft-apologizes-for-assassins-creed-unity-with-free-1663768202 Wow two huge releases from two huge companies and both humble enough to apologize to their Fans. Bungie can't even admit their LOADING SCREENS take longer then some Public Events take to complete. What's wrong with you Bungie ?

Tell me would the "Last of Us" with a great story last 10 years under contract and keep millions of players interested. I didnt think so. How about uncharted? I didnt think so. They made a mistake and bungie knows this. Its a bad contract, that didnt go in our favor. Now can you move on. Or do you want to try to override a contract, resulting in a unlawful act. But on the contrary, the did use false advertisement. But at the end of the day you bought the game, you were not forced to.

5 RepliesDamn. 343 is making Bungie look bad.
-
21 RepliesHow is this game broken, functionally it works fine, for most people at least. Content wise you have a point. But that's not the same thing as what happened with 343, since that game was broken for everybody.
-
Dude you are ridiculous. What went wrong with the launch? Crunch those numbers deej posted. Everything went smooth. A few hiccups but updates practically immediately. I just think you want attention. Please stop now. Bonnie Ross is attractive for her age. That's all that needs to be said about her.

5 RepliesBump Please copy to feedback forum

BUNGiE doesn't deserve Halo anymore.

4 RepliesI do not think that Destiny is a broken game. Its just not a very good one. There are so many things that I took for granted when I preordered it. I did not think that Bungie would let me down. I was wrong. I expected awesome. I was let down.

8 RepliesMicrosoft is a multibillion dollar company, Activision/Bungie is not. Broken game is a relative statment. A BROKEN game is broken. There is a difference, just saying.
