Brutes

Why should they not be in Reach?

  • 11.04.2009 3:48 PM PDT

Think about it they were not on reach only Elites were

Armor Lock isn't overpowered. You just suck at Reach :)

Reach isn't bad, you're just a BK :)

For my gamertag, look up "Ghoulishtie"

This topic had the same name as yours did until the OP changed it. It is the exact same topic, post there.

what I DO NOT want in Halo Reach:

AR
Dual Wielding
Bullet Spread
Peer-to-Peer Online
Crappy Native Resolution that doesn't have an Existing Aspect Ratio
Environmental Destruction
Unsymmetrical Maps
Over Textured Maps
LAN Inconsistency

The list goes on and on.

Wherever you roam
so far from home
you'll be safe from peril
life threatening and terrible
if you avoid David Powel
and keep track of your towel.

I for one would love to see Brutes in Halo Reach. In addition to Elites of course.

Exactly.

Nowhere did it say "There was not a single Brute fighting on Reach". Both brutes and Elites could be a formidable opponent in the game.

How come I never get the sniper rifle?!

Unsymmetrical Maps

They can't and won't take these things out. ALL symmetrical maps would be so boring. And the assault rifle is THE Halo weapon. They just can't leave it out!

Y'know, if the two of us sat in a room and talked things over, I bet you we'd get around to the point where one of us would kill the other. No one wants LAN inconsistency, but who the hell actually prefers a system of options like Dual-Wielding eliminated from the game?

Anyway, Brutes are welcome in Reach, by my book. But I want Elites, too. I want all of them in there, and I want it in a ratio that's fun. I think it'd be great fun if Elites and Brutes were both given the commanding role and both made their troops behave differently; and in campaign, they'd be generated randomly (a given squad might be unled, led by Elites, or led by Brutes, varying from game to game). It'd be a good, interesting way to vary the gameplay. Of course, changing the dynamic of Brutes to distinguish them from Elites is important too.

What I don't want in Halo: Reach is... a Plasma Pistol that does no damage when fully charged. Yes, it drains shields. But it should also hurt. Why doesn't it hurt? It's a huge overcharge of plasma. It should be able to kill you if your shields are out. Halo: Combat Evolved was pretty good with it, but it was only particularly useful for taking out Grunts.

Eat raw meat.
Punch a bear in the face.


If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

I got to ask you about a few of those...

No Assault Rifles? No destroyable environments? No duel-wielding?

Oh, and most importantly... no symmetrical maps? WTF?!

Unsymmetrical....

The Assault rifle is the worst weapon in Halo history, or least the Halo 3 one was.

Destroyable environments will only add to Halo's terrible online latency problem.

Dual wielding is just terrible, it takes all skill out of the game when you can just hold LB and spray everywhere.

The word is asymmetrical

It's not meant to be your go-to weapon, it's a decent weapon to spawn with. I for one have been quite successful with an AR against a variety of weapons in Halo 3.

True, not that Halo has huge latency problems. In fact it's one of the least lag-prone games that I've played ever.

You can spray and pray, but unlike in CoD4 it's not a viable tactic. If you just run around hosing people with SMG rounds you will not last very long. Don't hate the game because someone used dual wielding effectively against poor helpless you.
