to me the reason the beta isn't as engrossing as some of us would like it to be is because we've played other shooters that we're more rewarding and played at a faster pace. Halo is NOT the halo is was between 2001 and 2003. Once the Call of Duty franchise picked up and then other shooters with multiplayer challenged us and grew on the success of halo, it was only a matter of time until the slow multiplayer shooter became another shooter for a system.
Still a fan of the story, but multiplayer can't hold my interest anymore because it just feels slow for its age. And only now are they trying to change some things up....well the retail game isn't out yet so heres hoping they collected some great data!!!
thats true about some of the awesome games coming out, i mean if developers keep things fresh with their IP's then it doesn't seem that bad. Borderlands for me was insane cuz it was just right on the fps and rpg elements. but then ive been burned on other titles so called promises.
