I dont know where you people are getting the idea that Reach will be bad.
I personally, along with ALL of my friends, thought it was amazing.
To whoever thinks that only low ranks will like this game, take a look at my service record. I am a brigadier g2 in Halo 3 (choosing to stop there) and I also got an Onyx (best, top 1%) star in the beta's arena.
If you dont get Reach I will find it amusing when all of your friends have it and want you to play it with them, but you will try to stick to your opinion.
But hey, if the idea of change scares you then by all means stick to Halo 3, which will lose 90% of its population on September 14.
Onyx was a joke to get in the Beta, sorry...
The game looks good so far, but looks mean 0% for me, it's all about the gameplay. And yes, the game play sucked in the Beta. Biggest reason, IT WAS SO SLOW!!! Every Halo they release, getting a kill takes longer and longer.
CE: 3 shot
H2: 4 shot, but could double shot
H3: 4 shot, but only mainly in MLG. Lag makes it almost impossible to 4 shot
Reach: it was a 4 shot, but you fired slower
I'm loving Monday Night Combat at the moment, and I don't see me playing Reach just because friends do. I have to like a game to play it. (or at least make it a drunk weekend game)
I did have a blast with the Beta when we were trashed, but that's about it.
