Why did Halo start copying COD?
>>737651330After the success of Battlefield 2
>>737651330$$$
>>737651330copying arena shooters fell out of style
Because CoD made a jillion bazillion dollars
>>737651330>Why did Halo start copying COD?because Microsoft staffed 343 with people who hated halo and wanted to fundamentally change it.
Reach ruined halo
>>737651330Halo's time on top was literally 2 months in 2007. They lost everything once COD4 came out
>>737652335umm I think thats reach icon
>>737651330Reach was mainly developed by new hires, the key people responsible for the trilogy like Jaime Griesemer weren't involved and it's painfully obvious. Sprint was added in Reach because the designers misunderstood Halo. As for 343, they don't even want to make Halo games.
>>737654052limited ability locked sprint =/= everyone having default sprint
>>737652335no they didn't
>>737654391except they literally did, retard. this isn't some obscure conspiracy theory, Microsoft proudly touted that they'd brought in people who hated halo because it wasn't CoD/Battlefield and that those people would make Halo even better and appealing to those fanbases while remaining true to Halo and it has been blowing up in their face ever since.
fucking armour lock, still annoys me to this day
>>737656991Grow up
>>737658280I could say the same to you little tranime virgin
>>737656991i bet i teabagged you 15 years ago
Only partially related but did anyone else think the multiplayer maps in reach sucked ass
>>737659350forge world sucks
>>737651330I want to imagine that replacing equipment pick ups with armor abilities started off with the jetpack (a fricking cool idea I think) but then someone asked "okay, but what else can you do with that button" and then down the line someone unfortunately had the idea to also make CoD running into an armor ability.
>>737660056It should have just been a speed boost instead of literally imitating a CoD sprint.
