Oh.

I know they are not the same, but 343 hired the same people that were involved in the Halo Franchise, that's the point I was trying to make. and i guess it just matters who you ask. Hardcore Fanboys will despise Disney, while others like me have faith in them. Just look at what they are doing with The Avengers. Disney is also multi billion dollar company that can fund the starwars franchise a lot more.
not implying that Lucas Arts couldn't fund itself, but Disney can do it much better.

You have a point about the Disney thing. Disney did indeed make most of our childhoods and the Avengers (made my Disney) was a huge success. HOWEVER, back on the 343 topic (you were right about Disney so no real need to discuss). As a game Halo 4 was fun, it was even good. As a "Halo" game, it was very poor in quality. There is a reason that whenever people compare call of duty and halo that you could say, you can't compare the two because they are completely different games. You can't say that now. The undeniable facts are that they did copy some portions of call of duty. They even said they did. They wanted to remove the "learning curve" Halo had that put some people off. That curve was there because Halo is a game that actually does involve skill. Call of duty is hard to be great at, but it is very easy to be good at it. You pick your strengths and you pick how you want to start the match. Halo, you are to deal with the hand you are dealt. If someone from an enemy team picks up a sniper before you, then you kill them to get it or feed them kills while you die trying. Even though 343 said their halo would be different from Bungie's, they really did change a lot. The system is based on rewarding everyone equally. Leveling up is not based on skill nor wins, but rather participation. If a noob and a pro play at the same time every day until they hit 180 and they always play the same matchs, they will hit 180 at the exact same time. Yes there is a match win bonus, but it is very miniscule. It H4, doesn't reward those that do good, but rather attempts. It promotes that everybody is a winner even if you lose. That is just a small part of why this is a good game, but a terrible Halo game.

Finally, some one else that agrees with me.

This right here describes my feelings for every halo after halo 3. Thank you. I'd also like to point out they fucked with the gametypes too much. Ruined ctf, oddball, and griffball. I don't know how you can fuck up something so simple and fun as griffball. ffs.

I'll admit, reach was a little bit off from the previous Halos, but you must admit is was still fields closer than 4. One of the things Reach had was the many game options. There were so many amazing maps and gametypes that came outta reach that Halo 4 took the ability to make away.

Agreed, the only thing that reach added was the loadouts/armor abilities so for the most part it was the same.
