This game has been a development clusterf*ck from the beginning. It released plagued with awful design choices with slight glimpses of good design coming through. It's quickly evident that the development team wanted to make a good Halo game, but monumentally poor management strangled the devs and castrated what could have been an amazing breath of new life in the Halo franchise.

In recent months the game started to make a comeback, with many issues being addressed. Unfortunately that was short lived as Microsoft decided to sack any chance this game had at redemption.
