I wouldn't say the majority of people here haven't played...I don't think anybody here has had access to the beta. And I agree, let the game come out before you start making bad assumptions on it.
Bungie was a smart company....they would have been smart enough to keep up with the gaming industry just like 343 is doing. Just in a different way obviously.
