My banhammer sense is tingling!

When in another’s lair, show him respect or else do not go there.
Use the star flair for this?

Because if it did not have a MM option we would not be able to be matched in an epic battle.

Being 100% awesome, 110% of the time.

I am so sorry that they are making the game a little tougher, but dont worry, thats what diffuclty settings are for.

You'll just have to micro manage.

It's nothing new to RPG and RTS players. Deal with it.
Um I play RTS and RPG games ......


Then why are you moaning? It's the same Halo, just a little more tactical.

PS - Halo Wars and Fable don't count as RTS and RPG games, they're dumbed down.
-geek mode kicks in- Runescape? Guild Wars? Starcraft? Warcraft? Diablo? Do they count? Microsoft doesn't track those =/

Well since I haven't broken a single rule by posting what I have so far I honestly don't see why your "ban hammer sense" (spider man nerd) is "tingling". What I've posted is my opinion about Reach using information from GI magazine. Also people I never said the DMR is one shot kill so I don't see where you guys are getting it from that I have.

Meh, you pass the test. But then why are you moaning about a bit of complexity?

Complexity makes it too hard to play if you are pants on head retarded?

Oh no! No firebombs or spikes!!! Spikes were almost identical to plasmas and firebombs weren't even in matchmaking -____-

Time flies like an arrow; fruits flies like a banana.

You do not understand armor abilities. They're not equipment-with-a-cooldown. I think there will be no overshield/mine/regenerator/bubble shield armor ability.

And stop whining over the weapons. You have no idea how balanced the DMR will be, and the Needler Rifle may have a fire rate so low that it sucks.

The reason they weren't in MM was because of fram rate i think. Also I prefer throwing a spike into a bubble shield instead of a plasma grenade. There have been situations where a spike grenade has gotten me a kill and that same situation a plasma grenade wasn't able to. Like when my opponent jumps back into a corner and out BRs me and a plasma grenade blows up at his feet and he walks away because of the jump yet the spike grenade makes him a pin cushion and I get a kill from the grave. Sp spike grenades are different than a plasma grenade and have there own special uses. They should have both spikes and firebombs still.

The needle rifle? three hits to super combine and explode? It's basically an insta needler with better aim and accuracy.

the sniper is only a 2 hit kill, this is like a low powered sniper, and each individual shot doesnt do much so you need all 3


Posted by: PMR NYM
Then armor abilities instead of equipment? Oh wait and they recharge? wtfh? Oh my cloaking ran out I'll just go hide till I can be invisible again. Oh my over shield is gone time to go hide. Aww my bubble shield is depleted time to recharge it. Oh teh noz! My shield re generator is gone! Run and Recharge! Seriously wtfh? How will a trip mine work? Will it regenerate?

the camo will work like the arbiters in halo 2, and they arent EXACTLY like equipment. they havent just made equipment rechargeable. so we dont know what ones they are putting in, but they wont just be regenerating equipment


Posted by: PMR NYM
Oh and lets not forget the DMR the one shot weapon. What is the point? It helps to further unbalance they game.

its not a one hit kill, its just single shots. its pretty much a BR, but shoots single shots instead of bursts


basically, if you are going to complain, at least think about it first. and wait for the -blam!- beta

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

There's not that much of a difference for Bungie to still encorporate it into matchmaking. And cannonically it doesn't make sense to add it into campaign. For instance, what if there are no brutes in Reach, and inturn there are no brute weapons in Reach. This would make sense not to have the Spike or Firebomb grenades.

If there is one suggestion useful in your post it without a doubt is the regenerating trip mine!


Regenerating trip mine FTW.



Thanks for your input on a game that we have little details on. Multiplayer options haven't even been officially discussed. Think about that for a sec...

After reading the Game Informer magazine Halo: Reach can't have multiplayer because it'll be way to messed up. First off back to just plasma grenades and frags? No spike grenades or firebombs? Does Bungie even know that they are still different on how they effect a fight? Apparently not. The needle rifle? three hits to super combine and explode? It's basically an insta needler with better aim and accuracy. Then armor abilities instead of equipment? Oh wait and they recharge? wtfh? Oh my cloaking ran out I'll just go hide till I can be invisible again. Oh my over shield is gone time to go hide. Aww my bubble shield is depleted time to recharge it. Oh teh noz! My shield re generator is gone! Run and Recharge! Seriously wtfh? How will a trip mine work? Will it regenerate? .... They literally made MM imposable for this game. Oh and lets not forget the DMR the one shot weapon. What is the point? It helps to further unbalance they game. Gees Bungie make it even harder to play. Let us only play MM as grunts and jackals and drones why don't ya? Seriously like it would matter? Everyone would just grab camo, over shield, and bubble shield armor attachments and be invincible anyways.


Please tell me, when was the last time you used a firebomb grenade in Matchmaking? Never.

DMR will not be a single shot kill weapon, it's a single shot weapon which means it will be like a Carbine but more powerful.

Read the prints with eyes open, you might learn a thing or two.

You haven't even played the game and you're judging it from a few magazine articles.

I'll tell you like I told many others, don't over hype things to yourself, otherwise you will get disappointed. Common sense...

They don't ahev to be in the campaign but they still do have differences for them to be in MM still. =/

what makes you think they are just getting the halo 3 equipment and making them reusable? i mean, look at the ones they have: cloaking and sprint. fair enough, cloaking they have basically put a recharge time on active camo, but saying that means they are putting a recharge on everything is dumb. i mean, if they did it to oversheild and bubble sheild, it would obviously be unbalanced. like, so unbalanced they wouldnt even consider it. and sprinting isnt just a recharge time on current equipment, is it now?

They don't have to be in campaign or MM but should at least be put in forge/custom games (firebomb especially).

OP is obviously some obese kid who is having a rage because the prequel to his favorite game is not identical, well what's the point of making a new game without changing some aspects of the old one?

  • 01.24.2010 5:21 AM PDT

Wow...

  • 01.24.2010 5:27 AM PDT

wuzap pplz lolol
also, c0nz through Bungie Day

when did you ever see a firebomb in matchmaking ?
i think i never saw that
and tripmines ? how should that work ? you'll just have one growing out of your armor ? idk about that.. don't think that there will be tripmines as attachments, maybe as normal weapons..
and about all the hiding, i'm sure the opponents will search for that person and then the hiding time is over. and they first have to get the attachments from somewhere on the map

and btw, why bother making this thread when you know that there will be a multiplayer beta ?

  • 01.24.2010 5:33 AM PDT

*waits patiently for the beta*
