In Response To: Re: All this said... (DEEP NNN)


: When you cut off part of the sentence it does seem that way.

Actually, the full sentences still confused me. This wasn't an attempt to take them out of context, just highlight the parts that threw me off.

: I'll try to restate it. I believe REACH's default sandbox was perfectly balanced and
: worked as Bungie planned. I would have been completely happy if no changes
: had been made to it even though I personally did not like all aspects of
: it.

That makes much more sense. May I ask, what aspects did you not enjoy?

: While both of us are guessing here a bit, with own own bias and prejudices as
: influences, I am countering your suggestion with a differing suggestion. I
: suggest any influence from TU lovers would be hidden by the preponderance
: of the larger influence of initial sales and holiday sales. Yes, it is
: true I may have data that suggests there was an ingress of players from
: other games but I cannot prove it. They could be from anywhere including
: the percentage of REACH players online but not in MM. It is a huge pool of
: players.

: In my opinion the very larger populations of other FPS titles (basically COD)
: are probably ready to shed weary players and it wouldn't take much for
: some of them to positively affect REACH.

I agree that we are both just stating "what ifs" so here's another one - isn't it possible Reach is equally ready to shed weary players to COD/BF3? I don't know much about the tides of game preference, but I would expect to see fairly even trading. Your population samples seem to indicate Reach as gaining from the trading. Hopefully it will last. If it does, can we likely contribute that to the TU?

: Sometime (hopefully) in the next few days I will be posting a two month
: playlist study. It does suggest some movement within the REACH population
: being affected by the TU. It isn't much though.

: Only 343i can positively say which players are coming and going from REACH
: and what the movement within REACH is. Simple population numbers are not
: always a source of proof, even though sometimes it may seem obvious.

I look forward to your study, you are the foremost "unofficial" expert on Halo's population. :)
