because from what i have seen the answer is no its just going to be the same content packaged into a new game engine.


Blind kid is blind. Maybe you should go back and watch a ViDoc or two. Or at least Carnage Carnivale.

Tell me about it. Reach looks amazing!

If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you can read it in English, thank a soldier.

If you ask me Reach will be better yes, but it doesn't seem as "Hard" as Halo 3. I can't seem to compare Halo:reach and Halo3 together very much. The only fair way is if you play the game type where everyone sprints, i forgot the name of the gametype though :)

It gets boring when you don't have anybody who wants to play custom games in Halo 3 and the lag in the game is just unbareable. :(

I agree with you. halo3 can be one of the most boring,dull,bland,slow paced action game out there on the 360 but this is only the case if you dont have any friends to play with. try playing 10 games of social slayer in a row by your self sheeesh! I pretty much lost all my halo friends back in 09 when the game died and cod mw2 was in its prime. I play monday-sunday getting 14 exp per day in rumble pit trying to get my brigadier general. I want to quit halo. it is so damn boring! but im SOOO close to my goal.I have a feeling halo reach will be just like halo3. fun for 1 year then down the toilet. gt rodbowens. (hit me up for some double exp weekends)

I like the multiplayer and forge and I think in reach you can forge objects inside of objects is that right?

Reach will be different(better). But Halo 3 multiplayer isn't boring.

Agreed.

My third montage!

I think your question or point does carry some weight. We can contribute the notion of it being boring to a few things.

First, lets face it, it's a three year old game, for some halo 3 will feel pretty dated. Which is fine, that's just personal preference.

Secondly, while bungie had done their best to keep the playlists updated, the year long string of having hostball every month, living dead and RR (sorry RR I still love you but you've not been updated since Halo 3 came out) really killed double xp weekends. To those of who enjoyed those gametypes for the double xp weekends, again good on you it's personal preference and nothing more.

Third, This was something I suggested many, many months ago but it fell on deaf ears for many reasons. Change the weapon, equipment and vehicle spawns on the default maps. I never suggested replacing default maps, just give us one or two variants that were some how subtly different than their default counterparts. Simple not drastic changes such as switching out different weapon and equipment placements would change how many of the maps played. Some people felt it was redundant or couldn't get it through their heads that the idea wasn't to replace the default setups and as Shishka said, players don't like change. Simply put just switching out weapons, equipment and vehicle set ups could have breathed new life into some of the playlists. Your millage may vary on that.

Lastly, Maptionsack was never really given a chance or just implemented poorly from the start. The long since closed ATLAS group could have been a great benefit to the community. We should have had an entire playlist of nothing but community made maps but we didn't. My biggest issue with maptionsack as double xp is the same as rocket race the maps in maptionsack have (as far as I know) never been updated. There are user made maps developed with certain gametypes in mind yet other and at times completely opposite gametypes shoehorned into them. The result of which made the map appear to be either poorly designed or just didn't play well. My issue with rocket race is similar there are some great and even outstanding user made rocket race map variants out there that never got a chance.

Those are just some of things I see that could have drastically extended the life of halo 3 but come on a three year run is pretty damn good and halo 3 like halo 2 will last for many more years.

TL;DR: There are multiple reasons that halo may feel bland and dull to some players three years after it's release.

i agree halo 3 mp is extremely boring when you arent any good or if you just keep getting matched with people that are way too good, but no matter what level of skill you are, custom games and forge with a bunch of friends is always fun. But if you don't like this then i guess play another game. And reach will be kind of different i hope. But it might be the same. You'll never know unless you have the full experience of the game. But if you really didn't like halo3, then you might not want to spend money on reach, just incase it isnt much different.
thats not really all that true i consider myself a decent player yet at times i find the game really boring.. its all the finding something what you enjoy really and sticking to that

halo 3 multiplayer is not boring IF u buy the map pack
i personally think the original maps are better then map packs

id rather play sandtrap,construct or even narrows then most of the map that can be bought thats for sure they just didn't live up to my expectations.. sure sandbox is great for forging maps but its gotta be one of the worst maps in its original form

agrees, original is better that i don't get killed much.

Anyway like some people say get over it past is past, look into a future. If you don't like Halo then sell it, buy other newer games that coming out soon like gear of wars 3 or COD black ops or even AC brotherhood.
If you don't like any of the games then sell your xbox and go buy 8 years old toy.

In soviet B.net you don't delete the flood, the flood deletes you.

If the following has ever happened to you on the flood: been butthurt, offended, angry from someone's post, feel like Nerd Raging . . . you have the right to SHUT UP

Also, if you play Reach this is YOU
