If you have a complaint about the game, just take a step back and remeber how lucky you really are to even be in possesion of it when compared to the millions of people suffering around the world with not even a roof over their heads.

The subject of my post is pretty much my title. Modern day FPS' have changed since Halo 3 was released, it cannot be denied. Whether or whether not you like the likes of COD, you can't deny, they have made innovations which really levelled the playing field. The addictive EXP system, the super speedy matchmaking and the class selection/customisation system are all major innovations that really improve the experience for the player. The question is, will Bungie adopt these innovations? Or, more importantly, will they raise the bar further themselves? Bungie is known for being an innovative company, but the industry has moved apace since their last release and many may have questions as to whether they will do as they have always done and soar ahead of everyone else, setting standards for how the industry should work and keeping fans happy. I know I do, and I'm a Bungie fanboy.

What about you? Am I alone?

Remember,
It is easy to be male
it is another thing to be a man.

I believe that Bungie will borrow some ideas from other game developers that would work well in Reach and will add new and amazing features to Reach. They will always keep the fans happy as we are vital to their plan of world domination.
Who will build the slingshot without us?

Proud frenchie, elite fan, anthro artist not hellbent on yiff convention/pics/whatever, mature and intelligent forum guy, 4chaner, halo 2 lover and halo 3 hater.

a small correction to your OP :
halo have had influence on other FPS since the very first game.

before HCE :
no one button grenade
no vehicles
no melee
no need for storyline / keep it obscure.


** of course it applies to MOST FPS. not EVERY SINGLE FPS before. the majority didn't have these though.

I second that.

If my purpose in life is to be hated, then I'll make a great boss

hopefully they will adopt stuff from not just new games, but good games with replayability factor.
Maybe some stuff from Hl2 and the source engine. Id love forge to be more like Gmod....( i can dream)
