Re: Halo 5 sold less than 1 mil. copies in the U.S

I think the problem stems from Forge not being included at release, Split Screen going away, MCC being a disaster, the tireless focus on "pro" gaming, and the direction Halo 4's story went.

For a game that made a huge fuss about having the most preorders in history or whatever, they don't seem to have sold them. It doesn't help that the game is missing EVERY gametype that's been popular in Halo save for Slayer and CTF. Where's Infection? KOTH? Assault?

It's Halo 4 all over again.

Every game they put out is missing things that they think aren't popular anymore, despite the community making, for example, literally hundreds of Race and Infection maps, and then going "oh gee! I guess we gotta add that back in 2-6 months later!"

Can we also address how they launched with like... 6-maps? Not counting the 3 in War Zone, "remixes," or Forge Variants?

Don't get me wrong, I really like Halo 5 and it's miles above Halo 4, but they keep making the same mistakes and changing things for the sake of change and it's gotten to the point where people are just fed up with it.

Also I can't play Matchmaking 90% of the time because of an issue with TWC and 343i's servers. TWC and Xbox support all say it's something wrong with 343i's Dedicated Server and even some non-TWC customers in New York are having the same issues. There are numerous threads on Waypoint about it but not one has gotten a reply from any mods or staff.

Kinda annoying.
