Yesterday i posted my views on how things are going with Halo: MCC and tonight if you like it or not i want to clarify what i meant as i had quite a few people changing the meaning to my post. First of all i would like to thank 343i for what they have given us. It`s brilliant to not just have Halo on the Xbox One but to also have the whole Master Chief games on the Xbox One and on top of that Halo 2 Anniversary which by the way is brilliant and great credit to Blur for the best Halo cutscenes i have ever seen and most of us would agree. On top of that we have over 100 multiplayer maps and Halo Nightfall which i currently can`t get enough off. To add to all of this we also have the Halo 5 beta which looks amazing and i can`t wait to try it out. So as you can see i DO appreciate what 343i have tried to do and for 50% of the game i love it. My problem lays in the online or the Multiplayer. Let me go ahead and try to explain. Btw i know i could not do better but let me just say this i`m not the one making the games am i? Weather you like this or not Multiplayer for must people is `broken`. There is no denying it just because this is Halo. I understand people are saying every game has `Bugs` BUT those bugs are most of the time little bugs. They never really effect the game for long periods of time and are easily resolved. The bug we see here with Halo: MCC is TOO big! It does not just effect one area of the game but nearly the whole of the game. I would understand if one side of it was abit broke but for the whole game to be affected in such a big scale is just wrong and weather you blame MS or 343i this game should of been tested before Launch. I question if it was even tested Properly. Yes, some bugs can only be found after the release of the game but surely some of the bugs would of been found before the game was released. How can there be this many bugs? The Un-even teams is another thing people see alot of. Some of you may not mind it but most people do. If the teams are un-even in a game especially like Halo you most likely will lose/get annihilated. No-one likes that. I have had it happen to me nearly every game because i`m always put on the team with less people. I have NEVER found a even game on Halo: MCC and even if i`m on the team with the most amount of players i end up quieting because it`s not fun. I want an even fight. Another problem is the time it takes to find a game. Now hold on i will admit it has drastically improved from literally a whole hour waiting to now maybe 3mins-30mins waiting but even that (When it gets past 5mins) is to long to wait for a game where you should get it in a few seconds like past Halo games. Like i said whether you like it or not you cannot deny this game having a poor launch and quite frankly 343i have been terrible at updating us. Bravo is the only one of Twitter i have seen talking to fans and no other SENIOR person at 343i has even bothered to talk to us. Don`t say they are busy as taking a few seconds of your life to tweet us is hardly too much. 343i need to talk to us fans more on this issue. I know alot of you will say `Go play the campaign` now let me just say this i have completed all the campaigns, so what now? Some peoples reply will be `Go play more Campaign` I`m sorry but to tell people to play another part the game they never brought the game for as they only wanted to play Multiplayer and re-live those moments is pathetic. Multiplayer should of been working since day 1 and even though i understand there will ALWAYS be bugs with every game this is just too big and has gotten out of control. You cannot deny that a game should not have this many problems and half of it being broke. On the other hand this game CAN BE FIXED. The updates will probably EVENTUALLY do that. I say `Eventually` because so far i have seen pointless updates (My experience) which have only made the game worse but i do trust 343i to fix this. I brought this game to play the WHOLE game, very much like when you buy a car you expect the whole car to work and not have the wheels inflated or not there. This is how i and many others feel.I want my moneys worth and not have to wait a week or more to have that. It`s got to the point even if you digitally downloaded it from Xbox, Microsoft are giving you the option to get a re-fund! Alot of people moan Destiny is `Not completed` and funnily enough you are the same people defending 343i which has a game which is essentially for must people also not completed. But you choose to have a go at Bungie. Really? I don`t want people to change my words and i would like to reiterate i trust 343i with Halo and i will always support them BUT i`m also a gamer and i won`t be biased towards Halo. I will speak what i and many others feel and that will always be my stance. I don`t hate 343i or hate Halo and i WON`T sell this game or my Xbox One BUT i feel this game is partly broke right now BUT it can be fixed, I just feel it should of never been this bad in the first place. If you choose to un-like my page because of my opinion then you can go ahead and do that. I have my stance and whether you like it or not many people agree with me BUT i do ask for some of you to respect other peoples views. I do love Halo and i thank 343i for what they gave us but improvement is needed. - Andy
