This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.

Account Status: Silver :(

Halo: Reach may be enjoyable. But the community ruins it. To me, Halo 2 was the game.

Yeah, Hitboxing = fail. For example, a certan user from the maw who has never played Halo 2 Xbox online links to this halo 2 bash video (its much less exreme in acutial gameplay) which shows hitboxing, but it also exists in halo 3, which also has unbalanced weps and n00b armor (recon).

Forge reminds me of the health system here in Ireland, public health care is free and slightly below european standard, private is near the best in europe.

The HEK(halo editing kit, for CE) was avaiable back in 2005, forge in 2010. And even in that 5 year diffrence HEK wins by far, really it does. And now with more and more games being released on consoles, the power of the comunity is somewhat diminished...
You can never expect a console's map editing kit to actually compete with any PC game's map creation tool. For it being on a console, it's tremendous. Very easy to use, might I add.

They could release a program for the PC so that we could build maps on the PC, for the console game :/

I like Reach, but I don't love it like I did the other Halos.
If you're talking about 343 or Bungie, no, they couldn't. If you're talking about Microsoft, they could but never would. The consoles have caused modding/custom content to have a bad name among the majority of kids in the online gaming world. If you say "Modder" most of the gamers today would immediately think of hackers when not that long ago someone would think of someone who takes a game to greater extents than the developer had originally even hoped for. Something that is sadly starting to slowly fade into the void.

One fine example of true modding is this.

No. Bungie could. Well, considering it's in 343's hands now, 343 could. It has no more to do with Microsoft than making Forge 3.0. I'm not asking Microsoft to open the 360 to modding, I'm asking for 343 to allow the next Halo to search for custom map files on external memory devices. And provide a PC program so we can build maps in the Halo map format.

Something similar to iTunes, but with Halo maps. I'd love that.

What you're asking for is exactly what I'm talking about, Microsoft hates the idea of content made from external devices. 343 Industries would have to pass the idea through Microsoft and I can guarantee you they would say no. Sony is a little lighter on the subject but Microsoft is uptight as they can be about it. If you want an example of this to prove my statement, Unreal Tournament 3. The only form it came in that didn't have map creation tool accessibility was the Xbox 360 version. Why? It's because Microsoft said no. Same way they would to 343 Industries or Bungie.

Reach is ok, but that's it. It is undeserving of the Halo name. Halo 1,2 and 3 were all incredible, I spent more time playing those 3 games than any other game by a long shot. Reach ruined that.

halo 2 the best game in the history of ever

Fada beo Halo 2!

Of course, I think most of us here do like it fine. It's just not as favored than the classics CE and H2.

Achronos: And what's this about a "design team" I've been hearing? Apparently stosh is so awesome he's now considered a "team".

I like Halo Reach somewhat but no where near as much as the older games even ODST.

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

One major problem that I have with Reach other then the armor abilities, is that the DMR is the worst possible replacement for the Battle Rifle. The DMR when used in combat feels soo slow compared to using the BR in combat. For some reason the needle rifle seems to be a good replacement for the old carbine.

Halo 2 for Life!

see dmr like weapon was suppose to be in halo 2 but I think they took it out because of lag issues and three shot is better for lag.

in reach they compensated for the DMR and made the shots slower so it's more accurate becuase it's slower so it out lags the lag lol or prevention lag lol.

Yeah DMR and halo 2 gun that was like the dmr were bad for online game play as gameplay needed to be slow because of it (the firing rate to be specific).

Forge is all one of my friends play it gets really annoying plus he tells all of us that matchmaking sucks but the only reason he says that is because when he came over my house my 10 year old sister kept sniping him it was funny as hell but yeah he's just a -blam!-

  • 06.02.2011 8:55 AM PDT

The DMR is okay but it's kinda like a mini sniper really awesome but, they should've left the BR in halo.

If you havn't played Halo 2 online than you are missing so much. Plus if you have played a good amount of Halo 2 online, I might have a better chance of listening to anything you say.

I would have liked Reach if it was the first Halo game because that is what it feels like.

  • 06.02.2011 10:06 AM PDT

If you didn't Play Halo: CE or Halo 2 MP, your opinion about Halo means nada.

CE + H2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>> H3+Reach+H4

Meh, it still has little bits of Halo in it. That's all I like about it

Well story wise it is the first Halo game. So technically you're right.
