Halo: Reach the broken game!!!

Awesome another great update. Bungie hasn't been clear on this yet and I'm not sure if they ever will be, but I was wondering if like in the Reach beta, if you can only go so far in the player investment points. Once I reached the max for the player investment rank I lost all will to play and at that point didn't play the beta again. I hope in the full game their is no end to your player investment rank. I'm sure they will probably have something similar to that of modern warfare 2 where they allow you to reset your player investment rank a few times. I hope they dont have a one time max and that's that, if so once I reach that point I will no longer play the game and revert back to Halo 3

Jeeez, the only reason you play the game is to unlock armor? If you want to colect stuff play a game like Club Penguin.

Let me hear you sound off
Let them know how you feel
If the anger inside is real
Sound off
Long before the bridges are burned
The powers to be are going to hear your words

Let us choose to be an Elite and customize them. Srsly.

No flames in cutscenes? Super lame! Thats gonna be part of my identity! Thats like cutting off an ear!

At least make it toggable or an unlockable setting for beating campaign once or something!

Seriously!

look at it from a programmer's perspective. There is alot of code to make something like that work and maybe there would be too many errors in trying to apply that in cutscenes.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Thanks, now I can save it on to my computer because this screenshot is epic!!!

It's been my desktop since the beta ended. Then I sign on to B.net to see it on the front page. I had to do a double take.
I have some cool screenshots of me in the beta on my computer, but not as cool as yours.

Don't take life too seriously; no one gets out alive.

The Armory looks awesome! So we have the normal four customizable pieces from Halo: 3, plus 6 more pieces for the Spartan, one of which is Knee Guards, and each of these is nothing like Halo 3, it's more awesome. From the picture, I am going to guess the other pieces are (Not in exact wording but pretty much this) Arm Guards, Leg pieces, perhaps Theigh pieces, Boots, and Gloves. I'm hoping I'm wrong and there are custom cod pieces XP. I can only imagine what the Elites custom set will be like. Nice work Sketch! Thanks for the update!

  • 06.06.2010 4:14 PM PDT

Hail Satan

No customization foe the Elites... That sucks

  • 06.06.2010 7:44 PM PDT

Can't agree with what was already said by everyone more. I almost cried with all of the info crammed into this one.....

And as for the crazy number of customizable shenanigans, don't forget that they are going to have just as many (I hope) areas for customization when it comes to the elites.....although I'm getting a headache just trying to imagine what there is to upgrade on elites other that what was already there in Halo 3. Eye color? Scars? Who knows?

Anyway, the time until Reach hits is KILLING me, and until then, I'm still trying, and failing, at getting my fix on Halo 3.

Recap:
1)Read update

2)Almost Cried

3)Headache from Elite customization ideas

4)Almost cried again

5)Probably started twitching


Reach = DO WANT
Bravo all around Bungie!
