Here is the chart current as of today.<\/p>\n
For Frank (O’Conner-Franchise Development Director) or Kiki (Wolfkill-Executive Director for Halo 4) or any other of the 343 folks to say “We learned out lesson and we’ll do better on Halo 5,” just isn’t going to cut it. We’ve got nearly 3 YEARS before Halo 5 is due to come out, if they stick to the normal schedule. That’s way too much time to hope and rely on Halo 4 to carry the population through. Especially when it’s been shown to be continually and dramatically losing gamers.<\/p>\n I still have the highest hopes for Halo as a franchise and I really DO<\/strong> want 343 to succeed. But not just an initial success. It needs to be a lasting success, a continual success<\/span>. The complaints people have about Halo 4 are mostly valid. If the overwhelming aren’t addressed and SOON, Halo 4 (and the franchise) will suffer greatly in the XBOX market as well as the gaming market overall. That is something neither 343 nor fans of Halo want.<\/p>\n Personally, I’d rather have these issues fixed with Halo 4 before 343 even starts\/continues developing Halo 5. It’s not going to be worth it in the long run if THIS game (Halo 4) bombs just a few months after release. It’s not even 3 months that the game has been out. Let that sink in.<\/em> Wednesday this week it will turn 3 months from being released<\/strong>. And yet the population is well down from ANY previous Halo FPS game. That just doesn’t bode well for the continued success of the franchise. If Microsoft needs to work 343 employees 60+ hours a week for weeks on end to get it right, then do so. Pay them well of course, but this ship must be righted or it’s going to sink.<\/p>\n Please 343 hear our pleas and concerns. Address them AND let us know they are being addressed AND please do that quickly for your own reputation as well as the rep of the franchise and it’s fans.<\/p>\n Halo 4 was an INITIAL success. That really needs to be understood. It is not on the path to being a CONTINUED success. The biggest evidence of that is the in-game population. Want to see proof of that?
