You can questimate until your face turns blue, but you're not going to know what a game is like until you actually play it.


You can look at the improvements added to every game so far and estimate the improvements they made this time.
We have a book for info and other knolage collected playing the game so we can take an educated guess on the basiv jist of the game......yeah.

Wrong, you can't do this at all. Let's look at Terminator as an example as to why you can't do it.
T1: Good
T2 Amazing (Best Sequel ever, huge improvement)
T3: Mediocre (Worse then the first one, but not that bad)
T Salvation: Good (Between T1 and T3)

Now tell me exactly what the next Terminator is going to be like based on these facts.

dude, halo reach has been in development since halo 3 came out, there is going to be ALOT of improvements in it. and we haven't even SEEN anything from reach yet, so you can't judge it yet, stupid. you can't compare it to ODST, because that was more of an expansion than a game. and as for CoD's multiplayer, its been the same, the only changes being in MW1 and 2 and that was just different guns and perks and in MW2, the new secondary weapons and bonuses, if you ask me, that's not alot of change. as for halo, they add new weapons every game pretty much. AND they've added new enemies too. CoD doesn't have new enemies, we've been fighting humans in that game the entire time.

long story short, stop saying something you haven't seen yet will suck, and stop comparing it to games with completely different plot lines and game styles. oh and btw, your mom sucks too, but you don't see us complaining do you?

well i see your point. The enemies are so predictable and ODST was worse than halo:2 (and thats saying something)It had no matchmaking or real multiplayer. (though i talked to my friend and he said it really shouldnt due to the fact it'd look dumb because there would be a bunch of ODST's killing eachother) The plot made little to no sense becasue the covenant basicly abandoned earth when they left and the city was basicly taken away in what seemed to be like some doomsday explosion(but thats beside the point)

And what made me angrier was when those enginier things popped up (WTF ARE THOSE!) Also the stupidest thing about the enimies is that bungie obviously forget the story line becasue the brutes weren't the main mitlitary forces in halo:2 AT all (except for when cheif is on high charity) during the even of the ship leaving and others covering the rule of earth.

bungie has yet to disapoint me so far all the halo games are great all of them have great story exelent multiplayer and i can safely say that halo has the biguest comunity of fans in the world that no other game has , you dont belong here go play cod

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.”

A large man

Oh look, another thread saying that halo reach is going to suck, just because you didn't like halo 3 odst doesn't mean Reach is going to suck. ODST was a VERY good game, Bungie didn't have to give it to us, it was for the die hard halo fans who wanted to know exactly what went on on earth while chief was on halo. It was made the way it was because the majority of Bungie was hard at work on halo reach to give us a truly OUTSTANDING game. It was more like a thankyou to the community.

Engineers have existed since Halo CE, they were going to be in it but were cut, if you read the books you would have known about them.

About the brutes, they could have been placed by Truth to take out Elite forces remaining in the city after Regret left.

Though IMO, Truth most likely had the Brutes there so when the Ark portal was dug out, they would overpower the Elites like in High Charity, however Regret bugging out screwed that plan and the Brutes moved to secure the city and kill the Elites
anyway.

Edit: That is based off the knowledge Regret did not know Earth was the Human homeworld and did not expect the resistance, proven partly by the mining Scarab instead of the Combat Scarab.

This is exactly what i anticapated, your all failing to come up with intelligient retorts (There are a few which i commend those who did me the justice of getting a decent debate going here). I AM NOT A COD FANBOY. I barely play it in contrast to how much i play Halo. I love Halo but I am not some blind supporter.

To the few who made a decent arguement with my original post, my response is that while Halo Reach may be worth the 60$ price tag i am simply getting bored with the series, they could add alot more to it and go the extra mile to make it a great game.

I personally want Reach to be the best installment but I honestly dont see it happening when the most recent Halo game is a dissapointment. This is of course an assumption and after having played the beta i may have a different opinion but with nothing to go by I feel it is at least slightly justified that i make those arguements due to the fact that ODST didnt deliver that signature Halo quality to the series.

Before i begin my rant I want all those people that are blind Bungie fanboys to just close this link because you arent going to contribute anything to this arguement besides saying "Your and idiot" or insulting me based on MY opinion.


I stopped reading here. You couldn't even properly type, "You're an idiot." So I'm not going to waste my time with someone who cannot properly type.

Seriously, why should I waste my time on someone you cannot even use decent grammar which should of been taught in the 4th grade.

  • 11.17.2009 2:44 PM PDT

; >

As long as BUNGIE continues to elevate the series torwards more options as a shooter (ie lefty gunner) while bringing back the original feel and scope of the universe. By all means they should continue.

If they continue down the 12 year old story book path of Halo 3 campaign and small multiplayer environs then, yes they should stop.

Hopefully we will se a good mix of both in the future.

Your real mature. people like you really need to just -blam!- off. Your probably some insecure idiot forum nerd who has nothing better to do then to come onto these forums and say retarded online lingo to sound cool and intelligient when in reality your just another hypocritical sheep following the the herd of gamers all around you with no morale or indviduality other than to insult people who actually have individuality and want to have their opinion heard. Biiiiitch

halo 3 odst its an expansion that was made in 14 months with a small team but it turned out to be a great game not as great as the others but its very good for an expansion so stop dessecrating this forum with your presence and go away

  • 11.17.2009 2:47 PM PDT

OP I refuse to read whatever the hell it is you posted until you learn some god damn english.

By the way, YOU'RE AN IDIOT. "your and idiot" makes absolutely no -blam!- sense.

Did I ask you to open this link? Or for you to post some snarky comment on a simple grammar error? isn't it a little hypocritical of you to say you aren't going to waste your time when you spent at least a minute or to typing your comment to attempt to insult me with your immense intelligence?

Idiot...

Insulting another member is against the rules, my dear lad.

Perhaps you not be so defensive, and stop trying to justify your grammatical errors? If you would have put any time into the thread at all, you would have proof read it.

  • 11.17.2009 2:52 PM PDT

Its astounding to me to see how many of you idiots will openly insult someone you havent even met over my opinion on a videogame.

While I understand your frustrations with people nitpicking, you have yet to reply to any of the decent counter arguments in this thread, Bean. If you are only going to flame the flamers, that is the mark of a troll. Browsing the forum for trouble.

FanFicFactor
Forged in the Flames of Passion, go forth and represent!

You know what? You are an idiot. You did not make ONE, and I mean ONE valid argument that goes against Halo Reach. You are trying to judge a new game based on your opinion of its predecessor (which was an expansion/spinoff of the series).

You then say that Halo is milking the series, and then propose that CoD is NOT. Well, guess what, buddy? There are FOUR Halo games. Halo Wars does not count, as it is a RTS made by a separate company. CoD, on the other hand, have produced 6 games of the series, each one being only slightly diverse from the one before it.

Overall, this was a horrific way to express your views. Get your facts straight if you want to put up an argument, and don't try to make your opinions factual.
