Re: Who do you want to kill today? From the front

In Response To: Re: Who do you want to kill today? From the front ([AMS] GreyThor) : My brother's going to find a few rifles missing when he gets home from : Europe. : "Also, the change will delay the release of the game until October 28th, : but a Bungie representative said 'the wait will be worth it.'" : Bullshit bullshit bullshit! Wait, you think having people PLAY as the AI in : those parts of the world is going to be fracking practical?! An online : connection my ass. What happens 4-5 years later when Bungie develops a : newer game that is just as popular as the Halo franchise? What will happen : to those fans that still play Halo 3 if those Indians and such start : getting axed at their "jobs?" You'll have the fans at the : complete mercy of such cuts in that regard that they'll always seem to be : held hostage - and ultimately either have to pay a premium to keep that : such "human Covenant AI" feature available. : And let's take into account those people that will have a connection to the : internet - but it sucks (ie, college housing connections like what I'll : have for the 2nd year I'm not home)? It took me FIVE minutes to check a : voice message on Halo 2. Connect to XBL I could, but play? Impossible! : Somebody please tell me this is a joke - and a very bad attempt at one too - : 'cause I'm blowing more fuses than I'll be lighting this 4th of July : (roughly $175 worth of 1, 2, and 3" mortar shells with multiple : breaks in each firing). Amen GreyThor. Personally I'm praying that it's just some sort of sick joke. There'd also be a lot of flaws with the system. Crapped out internet connections are one thing, but what about the people who can't afford XBL memberships such as myself? Granted I'd planned on getting one anyway, but having to dish out an extra $60+ to get the starter kit JUST to play the game you've already dished out for? That's $120 right there for the majority! Bungie would also have to take into account that these people can't be on 24/7. What happens when you're supposed to be facing a player controlled Hunter whose "master" suddenly passes out drunk, or needs to rush to the bathroom for an indefinite amount of time? Then you need to take into account that some of these guys that get hired may be professional hackers who've gone under the radar with their modded 360. You could be just about done with the Campaign only to have some punk come running at you with an invincible, invisible Elite with twin plasma swords that's also able to wall hack to boot! I mean COME ON! If this truly is a legitimate decision by Bungie, they just supplied the nails to their own coffin.
