There's other smaller things such as how you can't do online co-op without a HDD (not even with the new 4GB Xbox 360 S), how you get quit banned for quitting a FFA game or solo Score Attack, the lack of ammo in the pistol, and how killing sprees reset after host migration. My general disappointment in campaign is another story, but it's "good enough."

But overall, I like the weapon set, I like armor abilities, I love firefight, and I think they did a really good job developing the game. As I listed above, there's many, many issues plaguing the game, but I don't think it's as shitty of a game as MW2. As I mentioned in another post, as of now my rating for this game is a 4/10 because of how crippled MP is. If they actually make it enjoyable, I'd put it right back at 7/10.
The HDD problem is an Xbox/Microsoft Networking problem. It makes sense if you have an HDD to be able to connect with others mainly because of the system settings with compatability; it probably just makes things so much easier.

Bungie stated that they're focusing on Invasion (hence Invasion week) and that more stuff will be introduced within the next couple of weeks to make sure server stuff is up to snuff.

Quit ban makes sense for FFA (because there is other people who like more people to play against), but I agree that Score Attack quit bans are lame. It's probably one of those situations where if it works it has to work with everything.

The clip annoys me too, but the weapon is meant to be a sidearm and not a full force killing machine. It's a 4-5sk, so it needs some sort of balancing. I'm sorry we all can't get what we want. But it's not always about the individual.

The host migration is a connection issue that really isn't the game's fault. In other words, it's information lost because the connection was reconfigured. If there's anything to bitch about, it's the Sudden Death not working in Invasion Slayer and the loss of Armor Abilities due to host migration.
