Subject: Halo 3 > A Piece of Crap Called Reach

KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!

Just yesterday I was playing on the new community maps that were horribly chosen why god-knows-who, and getting severely pissed off at the armor lock and randomness in my shots due to bloom. My final match, I turned a corner and was confronted by the entire blue team. Before I could get more than one bullet out my barrel, 6 grenades come flying my direction. I dropped my controller then and there and buried Reach in my game drawer, not to be seen for a very long time. I promptly went to play glorious Halo 3, and spent 2 hours playing customs games with my friends and in those two hours our entire conversation was sentences beginning with "Back when..." and we listed hundreds of things that were better back before Reach. I even played one game of Lone Wolves an ranked up to a Major Grd 3, after being stuck on Staff Cptn for ever. Welcome back Halo 3!

Agreed, and whenever someone talks trash to me, I challenge them on Halo 3 and wipe the floor with them =P

Sorry man. I kinda quit Halo. Personal reasons. Nothing against you or anyone I removed. I still love you

Haha its cool man. I'm still running SWAT, beasting it up =]. I started to make a youtube as well, made a post in the forum but no one seems to want to take a look haha. I'm feeling like uploading some good games on any game and I've done a SWAT on Assembly, which is quite a good one =P.

Most people who post on here are all Slayer kids so they probably won't like the SWAT videos. Im not completely gone from Halo but im not it everyday like before.

True, though slayer isn't exactly difficult =P. I still love how people underestimate how hard SWAT can be 50 high, I've got a queue of 7 people who need me to get them a 50 in SWAT, all of which are 50s in slayer. xD

Haha, reunion!
I had also forgotten how awesome SWAT was, and was surprised to see grenades in it before remembering they aren't nukes

  • 01.10.2011 5:27 PM PDT

Oh don't get me started on Reach nades, and have you noticed the AR beat-down is like a whole clip then a beat down on it?

  • 01.10.2011 5:29 PM PDT

KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!

Yeah it's because Reach you have to take down their shields AND health, not just shields

What is this, Reach? That we are talking about!

  • 01.10.2011 5:32 PM PDT

But still it is way too much. I also find people 'eat' more shots from the DMR as opposed to the BR. You trade kills way too often, I got a bulltrue and he still got me with a sword.... and the DMR is less 'skillful' as opposed to the BR, as you no longer have to lead shots and you don't exactly have to struggle to hit every shot. On top of all of this, the Arena is pretty poor and the matchmaking system is in dire need of a ranking system, as when I enter a game, I can literally play with my eyes closed and still pull out a positive K/D. Snipers I went 20-2 for a first game in probably 2-3 months and didn't play another, the head hit box is huge and all, but the kids I played were awful.

Also I am a SWAT player, if you didn't guess from the above conversation, and I really don't like Reach SWAT. People take so many more shots to drop as opposed to Halo 3 SWAT, and I know the players who eat the most in that game.

On top of all things, the maps are awful, with most of them forged. Compare them to Halo 3, as personally, none of them beat The Pit, Guardian, Construct, etc.

Here is a little rant, which I'm sure a lot of people will agree with.

Oh yeah chicken, it's piece of crap not peace of crap

Halo Reach:Warrant Officer Grade 2
Halo 3 ODST: Recruit
Halo 3: Private Grade 1
Favorite fiction character in a video game: Ciel (Megaman Zero)

I think Reach has token the crown from Halo 3 because it has the exception of a really good game, and don't get me wrong I really like halo 3 but sometimes I just lag in the middle of a matchmaking game and Reach really filled in the gaps that needed improving on from ODST and Halo 3. But still HALO 3 FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"I'll tell you right now, if you ever see someone called ll wa1do ll... leave the game immediately. My friend knows him, I've been in his party a few times, do not mess with this guy. From what I've heard, he's the real deal. I also heard someone made a guy named Wa2do (similar to his name) and then he hacked that guy and boosted off his level." -From Minou on Bungie.net

Ew.

You were only a staff captain? How the -blam!- could you have been a staff captain? Halo 3 came out in 2007!!

Ah, such a bias thread, the thread title would not do in the other forum. And the comments, more like insults than a 'reunion' if there.

For sure. I find Halo: Reach way too frustrating and noob-friendly. I haven't played the Community Playlist yet, but I'll take your word on it. Too gray and all the maps look the same, I'm assuming? I've also heard that you need a jetpack for a lot of the maps.

Yes I have a slight bias as I do not enjoy playing the game all that much, but I am not insulting it, merely stating a few of the problems that annoy me.

Its just that its a thread (looking at the title) says that "3 > Reach". While the Reach forum would highly disapprove of (though the many lulz that shall be had) it.

That is true, hence its positioning in the Halo 3 forum =P
