I am on the fence

In Response To: Re: The update is up and its a good one. (Urban Reflex)


I went over the Update again and I feel a little odd about the hole thing. I am glad that they let us know before we got our hopes up, but it seems to me that they are cutting corners. Sure they gave us a few dates and story related reasons to not have elites in the game but truth be told I think it has more to do with the fact that they did not want to have to work on Elite models as well as building there AI. I can not really remember that many elites in Halo 3 and this game is starting to seem like DLC getting put on a disc and sold for more then 800 points like it should.

I was excited about this game, and I was looking forward to it but the fact of the matter is I am starting to think I am going to pass when it comes out. The price point for this is going to have to be pretty low because it really is nothing more then DLC. For example the Fallout 3 DLC is almost the same as this. New area, new weapons but that's it.

They even stated that the MP is going to be pretty much Halo 3 but they plan to throw in weapons. If they are not going to take the time to come out with a regular MP part of this game. You can not blame it on balance they could have it like Halo instead of Spartan VS Elites, it would just be ODST Vs ODST.

When bungie became there own studio they said they wanted to make there own games, and that they wanted to do something other then halo. 2 years after the release of Halo 3 we are getting a Halo 3 "Expansion" Pack that seems to be nothing more then a grab for money at the time being.

Come on bungie, I ask this without being smart... Please don't let me down, and prove me right.
