Subject: What do you NOT want to see in Reach?

Excellent. Nod grows stronger by your victories.

I DON'T

-want to see vehicles that aren't used at all. Example from Halo 3 being the Prowler. You almost never see that in matchmaking.

-want to see WEAPONS/EQUIPMENT that aren't used at all. examples being, Spikers, Plasma Pistols, Plasma Rifles, Fuel-Rod Cannon, Magnums. They all have their uses, but are rarely used/seen in matchmaking. Landmines are rarely seen, deployable cover isn't ever seen in matchmaking, nor is a radar jammer, or the flare. The Invisibility/Invincibility power-ups used in campaign, and firebomb grenades aren't ever seen in matchmaking.

-want to see a "melee combat weapon", examples being a combat knife, katana, machete, etc.

-I do, but at the same time don't want to see 32-player multiplayer. The lag with 16 people is enough, just imagine what it would be like with 32 people.

-want 90% of ideas and proclamations made on this forum.

-want to see brutes off the chain, like in halo 3. Combat against elites>Combat against brutes.

-being able to duck into cover(like the Gears of War system, for example)

-x5000 other lame community ideas that are ripoffs of other games and/ or plain stupid ideas.

No matter how many times I forget about this place, I always get dragged back.

I'm more than okay with that.

I do NOT want to see the gun that you start with 90% of games and one of the most powerful weapons,can kill people from every range, kills with 3-4 shots, headshots, is the most used weapon,is the so called only weapon that takes skill to use.....

I bet you can't tell me what I am talking about!!!!!

Fuel Rods are the only thing you said that really isn't prevalent in matchmaking. There are quite a few Spikers, PPs and PRs, and Magnums in MM.

Tripmines are only useful on vehicle maps, so of course, they will be seen sparingly.

Deployable cover, radar jammers, flare - all got abused in MM. People were jumping to places they shouldn't have.

Invis/Invincibility, that's what we have Camo and Overshield for.

Firebomb was going to be in MM, but was cut due to framerate/lag issues with 8-16 people.

what i would really like is a more storyline and some better melee weapons other than the energy swords and grav hammers!

less annoying people ( Inmature kids that scream there heads of a mess around with the mic).
but i know thats not happening.

Yeah, you'll never get your wish for less little kids. It's 17 (USA) to buy, but anyone can play. The game ratings are a recommendation, not law.

The same old weapons, we need some new ones plus some old.

I want a Spartan2 squad based campaign with F$#k loads of enemies.

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.

I want to have, and 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!


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.



Thanks for seeing the vision.

Let Bungie update and make add-ons for Halo 3 forever...it is already a great game. Let's have Halo: Reach be something completely different.

For some reason, I agree with statement... why do I? I'm against classes, Brutes, dual-wielding swords, perks and other massively popular things... Why do I agree?

Well, for one thing, Dual-wielding swords would be kinda awesome, but how would a sword fight work? And perks can really screw up a game. It can make experienced players who play with people who are new (not necessarily noobs, just people who are new to Halo) and totally outmatch them. A Class system? NOT Halo at all. Shouldnt be in Reach at all. Brutes? Not a fan of them, but I wouldnt care if they ere in Reach. I dont even care if Im fighting a cross between Elites and Brutes, I just kill 'em anyway.

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

So then I said, "Wait a minute! That is my sister!"

I don't want to see equipment.

I don't want to see teleporters.

I don't want to see the same graphics just on a different page.

I don't want to constantly hear a ranting A.I. (In my characters head or from the bad guys.)

I don't want want to see fully balanced weapons. They are different because they are used in different scenarios.

I don't want faceless heroes.

I don't want an un-emotional, un-dialog. Shoot everything in sight game.

  • 09.09.2009 9:50 AM PDT

Dual Wielding - It makes the whole game depressing.

You agree because you are generaly with the group of people who don't want to lose the Halo they know and love. Guess what? I don't want to lose it either. I want Halo 3 to get updates and add-ons (like ODST) forever. Halo 3 is a great game, it still has a huge population, and keeping it fresh and ever adapting will ensure that it stays around for a long time.

However, I want the greatest game studio ever (Bungie) to give us something as original and good as the Halo Trilogy was with Halo: Reach. Classes, Brutes, dual-welding swords? Those are minor changes compared to the overhaul that I want Bungie to do. Still a FPS shooter, just something that really makes the Halo universe come alive.

If Reach is a linear campaign with the same MP with a few tweaks, I'll still buy it. But is that really what you want out of a brand new Halo game?

Clearly because the desktop uses a 3 prong plug and a laptop uses a 2 prong plug, the microwave will fill your car with tostitos better

I don't want to see the current melee system.
I don't want to see equipment in Reach, or at the very least some drastic changes to it.
I don't want to see as much aim assist in Reach as there is in H3.

I don't want that damn visor thing in your HUD. It's nothing but an annoyance and I hate that whenever I go into a dark place it jumps out at me.
Its a distraction and usually takes me out of the moment esspecially in multiplayer.
