Subject: What do you hate the most about halo?

The thing I hate the most is the fact that you cant play it on xbox live. It would be awesome if you could, and I would. It would be a nice change from halo 2 with all the problems it has been having with cheating/glitches. Hopefully halo 3 doesnt have as many problems.

I don't hate these things but what was annoying in Halo was fall damage and you couldn't jump as high as you could in Halo 2.

People weren't b*tching about Halo when it first came out, you know, because Xbox Live didn't exist at the time.

What I hate about Halo is that it's so over rated. It's a fun, solid game that's given me hours of entertainment that I'll never forget, but to be honest, the game itself isn't really that innovative or anything new. I mean, it was good, but it wasn't something I've never seen before. It's enormous popularity and huge fanbase have seemed to confused people into thinking Halo is teh gratest gaem of all tiem!1!1!Shift+One!11

Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

the only thing that has ever annoyed me aboug halo was the pistols range/accuracy. there is no way a handheld pistol can be highley accurate and offer greater range than a sniper rifle, sorry, just not happening.

I think its the fact that Halo was he first classic game on the X-Box and achieved a god-like status because of that.
And in my opinion Halo 2 would be crap with out XBL, as for Halo its still one of my favorite game today!

JADE STONE ROCKS

I hated......(only lightly) the colour was always green in campaign for master chief....I would have liked to have been able to change the colour with the start of a new game.

The Assault Rifle. Cool weapon, but it isn't very useful on Heroic or Legendary.

Thank you; that was just off the top of my head.

Also, the needler sucks in multiplayer.

You're right, it only 'innovates' as such in one or two areas. Like having totally weapon-independent grenades and melees.

But out of two games, about one of which the best thing you can say is that it is innovative and new, and about the other that it has given me hours of entertainment I'll never forget, I choose the latter any day.

Totally agreed, that's why I post in these forums!

Iris=win.
Look for the signs, the keepers of the flame.
They will Lead you to war, and perhaps, to victory.

Arguing on the internet is like participating in the special olympics. You might win, but you're still retarded.

HEY BUNGIE, I WOULD LIKE AN BETA TEST PLOX KTHNX

What I hate is how there ISNT fall damage - what the heck!? Fall damage made perfectly logical sense! If you were stupid enough to jump off a building, you DIED! An over shield would not protect against a great fall.

IT MADE SENSE.

Yeah, made sense to me. Maybe the amount was more than some people would like, but a tiny mass travelling at muzzle velocity and a large mass travelling at only falling velocity both have a lot of energy - so if it can be hurt by bullets and vehicle splatters it can be hurt by falling. I think the only people who complain about fall damage, which let's not forget has been a staple in these games, are people who played halo 2 first.

Haha, I must agree. When you think about it, not putting in fall damage kinda dumbs it down for players who are stupid enough to fall from tall heights.

agreed, i personally think it changed the pacing of the game (multiplayer specifically). you don't have to be as careful. with the fall damage active you wouldn't be able to jump off of the side at colosus, or off the top of the bases in lockout or ascension. it would change quite a bit. i think it should make a come back, however within reason. people gotta remember he weighs about a half ton with that armor on.
