In Response To: Re: Why i wont be buying HCEA *article* (katancik) : I completely agree. You perfectly wrote everything I was thinking. Times have : changed. Physics engines have changed, gameplay has changed, : user-friendliness has changed, and features have been added. These things : all for the better. The only thing that has been done so far in CEA is : added new graphics. I understand that quite a bit of effort goes into : that, but the game itself doesn't run any new code. It uses Reach's : graphics and CE's physics. All they had to do is retexture, redo some : audio, add some new Easter eggs and call it a day. It seems like a bit of : a lazy effort. If they added theater mode, player investments, and rally : points then they could say "we made the original game added things : you come to expect in the modern-day and made CE feel like a new game : again." But they didn't. : I feel this way about a stand-alone multiplayer. I'm glad they are keeping
I like that, for years, people have been asking for a CE re-release with only updated graphics, or for a CE release on Live Arcade with achievements, or for a return to the way that we used to play CE, and on and on. And then, we get just what we've been asking for, and now everyone is upset. No one is making you buy the game, and no one cares if you aren't going to buy it because they obviously aren't making it for you.
And you can't really argue that they aren't doing much (and obviously it's a lot of work), but this company is making Halo 4 at the same time, in addition to all the other extra stuff that they do. "Lazy effort" is absolutely insulting.
