Yeah there are actually a quite a few reasons why Reach isn't doing so hot.

1. A lot of the really good Halo 3 players didn't like Reach because it caters more to less skilled people and the new rank up system.

2. People generally play what their friends are playing and that is COD.

3. Black Ops just came out.

4. Halo Reach doesn't have the magic that other Halo multiplayer games had (this one is actually just my opinion)

5. Halo Reach was a letdown to many people.

 

Halo Reach has about the same amount of people online as Halo 3 had 2 years after it came out.

 

Now before anyone starts ragging on me know that I love Halo Reach and play it just about everyday (although I have to say screw the herp a derping noobs)e

I totally disagree Halo 3 was my biggest dissapointment in the series I felt like reach revived some of my lost enthusiasm for the game.   Also Halo3 was the first experience many people had with Halo so of course they rate it higher. As for myself I played and love the first two that I played long before Halo 3 so I was very disinchanted with the series after that game came out. But hey everyone's got an opinion.

Yeah I'm not saying everyone was disappointed with Halo Reach (I know I wasn't) But i know a good number of people that were disappointed with it.

I've personally never been disappointed with any of the Halo Games cause they all rock pretty hard! 

Yeah I new you must not compleatly hate Reach since last time I looked you were a major. Still i think every new version of a game has its haters. It's impossible to please everyone.

by the way I'm not stalking you , I'm just PAssionOfGandhi on your friends list.

Who cares theres so many great games coming out right now, only the most addicted would stick to only Halo.

actually alot more do stick even with good games coming out

like now COD released

alot of people will continue to play it ttill next year

 

but HALO has dropped alot

Yeah there are a lot of people that only play a few games. Look at World of Warcraft fans. OMG. Anyways I am the type who plays tons of games and think that those who get addicted to one are weird. COD is my favorite online game, but it only keeps my attention for about two months.

Being addicted to one thing is never healthy, life is about variety!!!

i too play alot of games and it too leave online after i try out everything

i totally don't get people who still play Counter strike

 

alot of do it because of it being the COOL thing and being part of CLAN or something.

i hate people like that.

 

 

its good if you play online and play other games along side it.

Reach had 900K Max ar ONE Time... Halo 3 had less players when came out.

Anyway Call of duty has came out recently so its normal... There is 1.332.550 players right now on Black Ops and around 140K on Mw2.

On Reach its around 157K right now.

Last 24H :

Total Games Played (24h): 2,845,688

Total Players Online (24h): 1,009,988

The game will pick up in December when many people gets bored of Black Ops.

stop looking at the games played

you can keep dying and making new games and that gets counted

 

Reach had 2m at online at the same time

stop trying to manipulate the number just to make it look good.

 

and you saying that cause of BLACK OPS release its normal is wrong cause REACH numbers were already below MW2 numbers within first month

Dude ur stupid as hell or i dont know...

Reach hadnt 2M players at one time! do u want o know better than me ? i play 5h by day on Xbox Live i had Reach 1 day before launch i played the hell out of the game.

MAX on Reach at same time was 900K and in 24h 3 milions.

Black Ops had a error on numbers , the max was probably 1.5M on 360 and NOT 3.1M like i said that was a bug.

Mw2 had 1.05M MAX when came out.

Mw2 still has as many players as Halo Reach.

If u dont want to get the facts than GTFO im not losing my time with bad kids that dont even own a 360.

1/6 of people who bought halo reach played it online today and thats with black ops coming out this week and a bunch of big 360 games coming out almost every week after halo reach was released. A lot of people are playing considering that. MW2 numbers were higher then reach because of black ops hype. Call of Duty has just become a bigger franchise then Halo. I don't think anyone is questioning that anymore after the day 1 call of duty sales.

themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

MonstaMack on 14 November 2010

Um how is this a surprise?

Modern Warfare 2 took less time then Halo 3 to reach Halo 3 level of sales, and eventually outsold Halo 3.

Call of Duty is obviously a bigger brand then Halo is now, and despite that Halo is still a huge seller.

You can't be on top forever.



It's just that simple.

yes i know better than you and i am was not the one bragging about the game  when it launched  and now showing that it was nothing

i am not talking about Reach's first 24hours but Reach had 2m at one time

MAX on Reach at same time was 900K and in 24h 3 milions.

it has 2m at one time

Black Ops had a error on numbers , the max was probably 1.5M on 360 and NOT 3.1M like i said that was a bug.

oh so you are now so that you can prove your point

stop twisting the info

PS3 Black Ops itself had 900k at one time and the 360 figure is much more than it at 3m

Mw2 had 1.05M MAX when came out.

MW2 had 2m record which it created last year

this record was beaten this year by REACH

Mw2 still has as many players as Halo Reach.

If u dont want to get the facts than GTFO im not losing my time with bad kids that dont even own a 360.

yes i don't want to get twisted facts which put out there whenever and whichever way you want to make your point

 you don't waste your time with "bad kids" but you know alot about what they own.............lol
