Part 4 - Broken, but can it still be fun?
Posted By: RC Master	Date: 3/20/12 8:58 p.m.
In Response To: Why Halo's Objective Gametypes Suck - Part 1 (RC Master) Part 4 - "Broken, Still Fun?" Otherwise known as "Why do people still play that shit?" This part is pretty short. Just a discussion of Living Dead to attempt to point out that people will still play gametypes with many flaws, even extreme ones, and they can still be very popular. Highlights Even if a gametype is broken, this doesn’t mean people can’t have fun with it, Living Dead playlist is the examplar of this in Reach, Humans massively powerful, long-range, Zombies don’t stand a chance, Makes more sense for zombies to deny points (hide) than attack, Yet people rush all the time! Yet it’s even THE most popular playlist! I won’t really attempt to explain why people ignore tactics, but this is proof positive it happens, This sort of happens to a less degree with the other gametypes, But obviously, especially for competitive play, it’s better if best tactic = spirit of gametype.
