cool and all, but just a nostalgia kick from a lot of old dudes who moved to pc, and the novelty of halo on pc. can it maintain is the question.

Thanks for helping me understand my feelings. Are you a psychiatrist or PS fanboy? Anyways, nice to see Halo come back for some good comp pvp play.

well it dropped off pretty quickly, peak of 50k last few days when I checked.

People remembered Reach. I played it a few days and the MP was just as bad as it was back then, luckily the new Mythic playlists in Halo 5 launched and is phenomenal, so that scratched my Halo itch.

that's what happens when you fuck up critical aspects of your port.

Considering that reach was the last great halo game yeah it kind of is under 343.

Pretty sure a lot of the people buying it on Steam never played the original, so they're buying it on the strength of the name of the IP.

More likely it's just the normal dropoff any game has, most people are just going to go through the campaign once and then call it a day.

That said since the Master Chief Collection more or less works as a GAAS type game with them adding the 5 other games over time it's definitely going to be pretty active for a long time.

No, it's significantly impacted by the various critical issues the game has. Scores have people have taken a break from the game pending fixes.
