Halo Online Is Shutting Down?

SegmentNext - Christmas may be on everybody’s minds at the moment, but that doesn’t mean that all work has stopped. It looks like Microsoft may be working on something new, though little is known about it.

Halo 5 is still the best FPS multiplayer shooter currently this generation. But I'm sure the free to play Halo will be played outside of Russia

OpenGL3065d ago

This is about the free to play Halo that is currently exclusive to Russia.

The mod community has already taken the game and repacked it as Halo Online "El-Dorito" so it can be played outside of Russia.

ShadowKnight3065d ago

And what's your opinion on that?

OpenGL3065d ago

I don't really care either way to be honest but I found a version of Halo being exclusive to Russia very odd.

OpieWinston3065d ago

It was exclusive to Russia because F2P games are big over there.

Moe-Gunz3065d ago

Rather play Rainbow 6 siege.

I own Halo 5...It is not the best shooter this gen.

That title belongs to Plants Vs Zombies: Garden Warfare which is still fun to play.

I'm already bored of Halo and it's annoying frustrations.

It's a good game, but after 2-3 weeks the reality of it set in and I stopped making excuses for all the little BS that was wrong or missing.

343,for the budget the received for this game and the amount of support Microsoft gave them, should have made a better game.

For me, it hasn't lived up to the hype, and there are just one too many things that could have and should have been better, for me to say this is the best shooter this gen.

That being said, this gen in terms of shooters has been below par.

The hype for all these shooters is here, but IMO the only one to actually deliver is PvZ:GW.

SUCKxITxEZ3065d ago

Im pretty satisfied with Black ops 3. Better than MW3, Ghosts, and AW.

Dude cant be serious with this.

Plants vs zombies is a better shooter the halo 5?

O__O

How is that even remotely possible?

Just relax you will get infection later LOL

Vhampir3063d ago

Some people just like opening virtual card packs.

Halo 5 is great, aside from the FUBAR aiming. Did they fix that yet?

Oh and, to my own shock, Splatoon is the best shooter this gen.

BubbsyKong3065d ago

I would LOVE to play halo on my PC! For now I will play Arma3 I guess :p Maybe their downing it preparing for a new version that you know.. people outside of Russia can play without having do "hack it"

CoDsuperstar3065d ago

now if only call of duty online saw an international release... cod online is the chinese version of cod that is basically CoD4, MW2 and MW3 combined with all of the maps from said games.

Twitter is blowing up right now

All games coming to PlayStation
Next Xbox will have steam
Next Xbox niche and only for “gamers who want it” (it’s a really powerful pc or a steam deck type portable, or both)

Well, 4-Infinite dropped the ball massively so don't worry.

Sgt_Slaughter83d ago (Edited 83d ago )

Not really. 4, 5, MCC, and Infinite are only remembered for their shortcomings and failures when the franchise was purely known for being a system seller and an all-time great. There's a reason 1, 2, 3, and Reach are looked back on fondly, and it's not because of nostalgia.

FinalFantasyFanatic83d ago

I don't know of anyone that speaks fondly of the later Halo games, I would like to play 5, but I know it's not good, and I'm just waiting on Infinite to hit my strike price. I played MCC a lot later after it came out, so must of those bugs/issues were gone by the time I played it.

PhillyDonJawn83d ago (Edited 83d ago )

To say it dropped the massively is just not true. Many in the community hold H5 as the best mp mechanics in the entire series and say its what 4 should've been. Its campaign was trash but the MP is Fantastic and many faces of the community still play today and it only made 500mill in the matter of months but sure it dropped the ball massively. 4 was hated due to all the changes at once. And CoD like feature and rightful get hate but it's campaign story was liked by a majority of ppl. 343 hasn't nailed ot 100% but they get 1 thing perfect but F up in other places. Infinite had a good campaign and design but the story was a mess. The MP improves upon what Halo 3 was and is what many ppl wanted to go back to but it lacked content severely. So massively aint the word. Dropping the ball massively is when it's pure trash and unplay/unenjoyable. Most ppl blind by nostalgia so soon as 1 thing aint the same its hated cause Halo set the bar so high
FYI reach was not that good.

Dead IP, time to invent something new.

kaos8984d ago

Maybe they can have ID or one of the COD studios help 343 with this series.

jznrpg84d ago

Halo-Pop like Gears Pop. Halo bowling. Halo Cooking Mama. There’s a reason why you won’t hear about them
