Subject: What don't you want to see in Reach?

Personally, I think an actual "skilled" person in Halo 3 is someone who knows how to win with every weapon and combo in the game, not just a single weapon like the BR, Sniper, or even the AR. Of course, that excludes me, as I have yet to get a kill with dual plasma pistols. :D

I don't want to see unbalanced weapons. That always seemed like a major flaw in Halo 3 for me - some weapons outshine everything else, while others are useless except in very specific situations.

You can't kill what's dead.

Stand. Fight. Resist. S2F.

Brutes.

They can play the support role, but having them as the main enemy was increasingly boring. Dumb AI and predictability totally made them a terrible.

And nothing from H3 multiplayer. They need to do an overhaul or I probably won't play it.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Spartans, ODSTs, Marines, Humans of any kind as the playable campaign hero.

I want to be on the WINNING team, and the Covenant kick ASS on Reach.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

I both would and would not like to see a level that requires you to rocket propel yourself across the map on a Mongoose.

Reach MMO. Here's to hoping.

And the people that believe "the hardcore playlists would be more popular if the rules were strictly MLG" can come off it, now. If you're not willing to support something close to your own setup, there's no reason for us to believe that cloning our own lists and stripping the variety down will attract more people. -- Shishka, Bungie.net

I don't want to see the exact same thing we have seen in Halo for the last 7+ years. Anything different is better in my mind.

Yes I am talking MMO's, open world, space battles, customization, maybe classes, multiplayer AI, reinforcements, waypoint battle multiplayer, playing as any race, etc.

That's right, I really am not being sarcastic in any way, shape, or form.

I would gladly take any of the above changes over Halo 3.5!

Resignation is my virtue; like water I ebb, and flow.
Defeat is merely the addition of time to a sentence I never deserved...but you imposed.

Phatoms, new weapons, new vehicles, brutes, and about 90% of the things people say they want on this forum....

This right here is the only good answer, along with no BR that I have seen on this thread.

We need something diferent if we are going to get more players on the Halo train, I mean many and I mean massive amounts of players have gone to better games, and there are better games...

For Reach Bungie cannot just have more of the same, we need more variation in gameplay, more customization for everything else, and a new way to play all together.

Oh, I forgot to mention the rank system, remove it. It has caused more strife and chaos on the forums for Halo 3 than anything else.

Second accounts to get a hiigh rank, boosters, cheaters, etc... All for what, a number in a game that will be forgotten by the main stream community in two years, a ranking system is not worth what is lost.

See how they bait their trap?

brutes

The thing I DONT want to see is Matchmaking governed by class. I like earning rank but I dont think i should be limited to who i play just cause of a number. So i think keeping Ranking is great but not using it to select the matches, i mean if it was real you don't have the luxury of having your enemy dumbded down just cause you have a low rank. Sometimes its frusterating to have to play kids who cant even aim...
Now, so as not to be so pessimistic I'd like to breifly list what I DO want to see in Reach.
Well, reading Halo: The Fall of Reach I'd really like to see elements of the book embodied in the game. That is to say I'd love to see campaign starting off with 117 and the others as children. But if thats not possible then jump to at least pre-augmentation missions when the spartans were around ~14 years old. Also using other spartans besides just The Chief would be sweet. I'd love to see all the OLD gear. So we get to share the excitment leading up to the introduction of the first MJOLNIR suits.
For multiplayer I think a hybrid of the much anticipated Firefight from ODST and the Matchmaking variants from Halo 3 would rock! But let us use some of the covenant: grunts, Jackals, brutes etc. We must have those really crazy, off-the-wall achievements! (who doesn't love achievements) Any way however bungie figures to make the game I'm sure it'll be a hit, after all bungie make the best games ever!

I wanted a gumball so I said "Yo devil you got change for a soul?"Satan appeared and said "Yeah, yeah mosuckra! I got yo change right here just sign this contract and I'll give you your quarters!" So I signed it, lost my soul, and got 4 quarters. I have never regretted this decision.


I make coups, they are fun to make. Want me to make you one? Just ask I'll see what I can do.

No MLG, no weak sounds AR, no perks. And most of all no playlist ranking systems, individual ranking system is more than enough.

4. no scope/melee combo, the sniper is not a shotgun


so the sniper does not work if u no scope or it works at 1000 meters and not at point blank? btw ur probably mad cuz u cant snipe and r obsessed with a shotty


A melee delay would be great. Team Snipers is more fun when people aren't beating each other down.

hi

I dont really want to see brutes because they will not fit in the halo timeline also to the people who are saying to get rid of anyone under 12 or 13 i half agree because it depends on who you play with i mean some 13 or 12 year olds dont act like 6 year olds but some do and one last thing you all were that age once

  • 09.04.2009 4:05 PM PDT
Subject: What don't you want to see in Reach?

ok, but the real problem is the people who dont want it kids my age act like there 4 and aduts who are 40 act like they are 3, breathing on he mic 24-7 whispering little kids in matchmaking im sik of the adults i mean comon im sick of people my age but adults/older teens are just as flaming bad. im getting bored with the pervs on lone wolfs giving me jip

  • 09.04.2009 4:15 PM PDT

maybe for the adults who purchase there kids the game there could be seperate age playlists? up to 12 up to 16 and 20+ just an idea...
