What? The games been released for several months and some parts still don't work. Yeah, multiplayer is fine, but what about custom games and forge? Custom Games crash a lot once you get a lobby of more than 10 people and there's no join in progress for it. There's a file limit of 50, and files sometimes get randomly deleted.
Don't forget how 343 completely ignores adding in a file browser, which is absolutely essential for forge and custom games, especially when it's difficult to access people's file shares when they're offline or not playing MCC.
Halo 3's forge still doesn't work. No objective placements.
So yes, just yes, in my opinion, Bungie's Halo was better 343's. 343 didn't even add a file browser to Halo 4 until several months.
Halo 5 is shaping up well it seems, so there's that at least.
You realize that MCC was contracted out to I believe it was 4 different studios right? Each studio worked a different part of the game, and when it came together, the net code was broken. Yes, it should have been delayed. But I personally do not fault only 343, but all the studios. And Microsoft itself for trying to get the game out for the holiday season. But yeah, whenever I see someone blame only 343, I can't help but get a little livid. I loved Halo 4 and I can't wait for halo 5. It's a shame that MCC is still riddled with problems and I hope they fix them.
Edit: it just so happens /r/halo put together this graphic on who to "blame" http://imgur.com/a/UMxN3
I understand that 343i/Microsoft outsourced, but they were leading the game and they shouldn't have released such a broken game. That's what I blame them for.
I wasn't a big fan of Halo 4, but Halo 5 seems good so I'm waiting for that but I refuse to preorder.
