Not having an absolute crap-fest for a campaign.
No idiots who only cared about the next game's mp capabilities, I think CE was one of the last meta-gaming experiences.
You'll see no disagreement here.

A hero need not speak. When he is gone the world will speak for him.


I'm here to kick ass and chew bubble gum, and im all out of bubble gum!

If I stop arguing with you, it doesn't mean that you win. It means that I don't have the time or energy to keep arguing with you. Get over yourselves.

Elites with rechargeable shields. That added the time factor into your fights. Now the only strategy is to pump the guys with enough led and plasma till they drop.

May I borrow your earpiece? This is scout! Rainbows make me cry!


O4B Home of of the Crazy!

A game that didn't focus on stats, just winning and fun.

CLAN Hectic Sniper

the game in whole was a whole lot funner due to its lack of competitivness (ranking)
blood gulch sidewinder and infinity. the biggest, baddest maps in the halos
and the way you didnt need two ppl to capture a flag, you could go solo and drive away
WHOS WITH MEHH!!

blarg.

More ammo for weapons and larger clips

Crap handling in warthog

Ghost had slower shooting

Stun power in plasma weapons

Sorry if I have repeated anything anyone has said-it's a big thread and I can't read it all.

CLAN Hectic Sniper

Also the part in Truth and Reconciliation when you get on the ship and you see the first sword elite and you scream "WHAT ARE YOU!!!!!???".
and the epic swooshing banshee sound.
being challenged by elites

No locking for melee attacks. It should've stayed like that.

527. Guilty Spark 343

OMG :O. After the Flood was introduced, I literally closed down my Xbox (it was nighttime and I was young). Then I waited till morning, then opened all the windows to flood sunlight in to keep me comfortable :D.

528. Sniper couldn't kill Flood.

Self-explanatory.

I got in a conversation with my buddies girlfriend about halo3 the other day... I mentioned the BR's drop shot... to which she remarked that she is getting better with the BR but she's really bad at aiming so she just uses the AR.

10275) the flashlight showing you where the camo whore is hiding

10276) The "ninja drop!" crouching at the last moment when jumping from the top of hang 'em high and taking no damage....

10277) the overall feeling of a balenced game (just because you got trapped in a close quarter fight with a shotgun, doesn't mean you're not a 3 shot away from surviving)

I got his sarcasm...one person has to implement sarcasm and then you get a pile of terrorist chipmunks crashing your party, not fun at all..

Random silly glitches that completely ruined the spirit of the game yet were still fun, ie blasting the unmanned banshee of the platform in AotCR and flying through half the level.
