Maybe we’re being cynical about all this but, after initially announcing that it was going to turn the Halo Wars community site and stat tracking offline, 343 Industries has done a turn around, claiming that the “reaction and passion from Halo Wars fans” has caused them to continue both services.
The timing just seems a little too perfect. With only one week to go before they shut down online services, now 343 Industries announce that they’ll be continuing to support the game? Seems like a bit of a ploy to get a languishing community back into Halo Wars or, at the very least, a clever way to test the strength and voice of its online community.
Did they really have to leave it so late? It’s got us wondering if 343 Industries had ever planned to stop supporting the game…
