Perception is everything.

I just wanted to point something out that might cheer some of you up. It seems like Reach was announced about a month ago, but if you look at some of the dates in which the threads were created, they go back to the beginning of June. I don't remember the exact date of the announcement of Reach, but it was about three months ago. Time is flying by...what happened with ODST is happening with Reach. Get ready.

No.

I want to stay hopeful. I'm tring to trick myself into thinking that odst is the next hot -blam!- killer app. But I just can't. Reach is just too misterious to distract myself. I had Bioshock 2, but that's gone...

This is going to tourture me until the Wal-mart store doors open Fall 2010.

It was announced June 1, 2009, at approximately 11:31 AM.

It has been 111 days since its announcement. Weird.

It still seams like it's a long time away.

I disagree. One year is a long time to wait.

The Bring Back Bloodgulch Group have many members looking for more its kind of an unofficial petition to Bungie to bring back Bloodgulch in Reach http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/bx3g/Group/GroupHome.aspx

its really nothing in comparison in to waiting over 10 years for a duke nukem game..... then they get shut down because of money issues and now we will never play it.....1 year is just fine with me

  • 09.15.2009 7:00 PM PDT

A real test of a man is if he is willing to scrape a sharpened razor up and down his junk just to please a woman.

I'm looking more forward to the Reach beta than the actual Reach game at this point, only because the beta is probably going to be closer.

"Probably," I sure hope it doesn't release after the game?

  • 09.15.2009 7:47 PM PDT

It's going to be an awesome game.

  • 09.15.2009 8:03 PM PDT

Hope to someday work at this place! :)

more on topic though... I agree that a year is still a LONG time to wait. I'm hoping that the Beta will be released this holiday season as a little Christmas gift from Bungie to the community? but thats probably too soon for a game thats coming out a year later...

Ehm? You weren't using sarcasm...that was just joking around. Sarcasm is something completely different.

Yes, but think about it. Reach was announced over three months ago. Multiply that by four. That's what we have to wait for. This makes me feel better, because it didn't seem that long ago when they announced it.

Play fair, play to win, and never leave your teammates in danger.
Feet first into hell.

Yeah, im looking forward to Reach, but ODST gives me a good thrill. They are finally going to have a halo game that doesnt allow players to run in (like a chicken with its head cut off) and still win. Im glad that the whole hero-persona in Halo nuts is going to be smashed.

As far as Reach goes, I have more questions than excitment. I know we will have more spartans. Will firefight be in Reach also? What armor will they use MK 5 or MK 4? If they use MK 5, will they redesign it just like they did to the ODST drop pods? Which vehicles will be available? Will all the weapons from Halo 3 carry over or will there be a cut like in ODST?

And the time is flying. Just relax, ponder only a little, and it will be here before you know it.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Cool and unique atheist is.. um.. cool and unique?

Back on topic, undoubtedly the game will be out before we know it. I remember counting down the days to Halo 3, the anticipation was so great it felt like it came so quick.

I still can't believe it's been pretty much a year since the ODST reveal trailers. So yeah, before we know it, it will be Fall 2010. and we have the Multiplayer beta to look forward to, most likely Spring 2010.
