Jumping on here briefly to confirm Halo Fest is still on for December. No changes to dates, locations, etc.
For more details on the event, I'm going to please ask for your patience as our first priority is to provide support and care for our teammates. We will communicate more updates in the coming weeks.
@XBOXTIMDOG Hey I respect that. I like hero Chief like we talked about, I think Chief can be whatever we want him to be. I just prefer he be there as the protagonist in general at this point
@Sonnie_Slim Absolutely, I’m limited on characters on here so I wasn’t able to fully express what I meant unfortunately. I love Halo 5 personally. I more meant the perception the game had post launch. If and that’s a big IF they are going to replace Chief it needs to be done right imo.
I guess I don’t understand how there are a number of people who don’t want Master Chief as the protagonist in the next Halo game. The whole purpose of Chief was that you could put yourself in his shoes. They tried replacing him in 5 and for most it didn’t go very well 1/2
@tomwarren Tom, we are very happy with GTA VI pre-orders. The title is breaking records for XBOX, we expect even more records will be broken throughout the fall, and our internal analysis shows our share of pre-orders to be matching our share of the console market.
And whatever team at Activision would have to make a pretty great character to replace what Chief represented. I want more Chief personally! Make a really great side character and have them star in spin offs ODST style!
MASTER CHIEF IS HALO
“I think Halo has run its course. Xbox should just let it rest.”
Yeah man for sure. Nintendo should go ahead and stop making Mario games too, little plumber had his time in the sun
Tf is wrong with some of yall man
Kinda weird to get rid of Halo Fest right after you announced the development of a new game? Maybe they’re just putting it on ice till we’re closer to the new game releasing? 🤔
Over a year ago I said that Halo by Activision could work.
The way Campaigns are structured, they will be able to do it justice.
Play Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare Campaign, you’ll see why Halo will work
