Subject: Which Halo was the worst?

Halo 4 can't come out soon enough!

Why does everyone hate Halo 2 so much?
While i know there were grpaphical errors here and there, the campaign was great, the soundtrack was amazing, and, well.. People have REALLY differing opinions..
Was it the cliffhanger ending? Playing as the Arbiter?
I saw that people didnt like duel-wielding. OH, and the needlers and pistols sucked. that i will agree with if said. And it was hard as sh...

Halo 2 was rushed. That's why I say it's the worst. It had potential. Note that I didn't say that I hated it. I said that I hated Halo: Reach yet I consider Reach the third best game.

As for KuD3x's post,

I hated the Chopper.

I never said that the Wraith didn't have great armor. I said that it had health, and that kind of thing can impact you psychologically. It's the very thing I sought to eliminate when I modded Halo PC, because in Halo 1, the Wraith had poor health.

It's not difficult because of the AI, which are great btw, but because of the poor assets you have at your disposal. Although the weapons, grenades, and vehicles may reflect Halo CE, they are not 100% the same. I may also hate Halo CE with a passion but I loved how balanced and reliable it's tools were.

Again, not seeing vehicle health affects a person psychologically. Of course I know when the Wraith is heavily damaged. But a health bar would be more reassuring, because I know that the Wraith can take a lot of damage but I need to know when to abandon it or to use it as a mortar.

As for your other points, I don't even have the full game so how can I use the jetpack and Scorpion tank? I never complained about the armor abilities nor did I complain about the story, assassinations, etc.

Or are you addressing everyone who hated on Reach?

I agree... Ive played halo 2 more than anyother halo. Ive been in areas and found things youtube hasnt even found. Halo 2 could have been better. It seemed like it was more of pulling out tricks rather than game. The dual wielding for one. Its cool but, thats what it is "cool". The story Im kool with. A scale from 1-10 i gave it a 7. the lowest score i ever gave a halo game and thats great :)

1. most people hate the chopper cuz it can destroy a warthog in an head on collision. The front is the stong point and the back is the weak point. Easy to learn... Its a challenge in my book. If you hate it... destroy it so you wont have to deal with it lol.

2. There is no need for extra health bars just for a vehicle. Grand Theft Auto has used the same damage tactic with ur vehicle is smoking its most likely at 30% health. Use ur brain you lazy bast*rd.

3. I was talking about the hate on reach in general not just you, even though you were a target btw >:). I was getting on why people hate on reach and its for stupid reasons. I hate on COD black ops cuz of the random tomahawk throwing kills. Thats just unfair and unrealistic :( but its a feature they either planned for or they didnt and just said "Hey lets leave it. Not like its balanced anyway" >:P

4. Halo CE... you are a hater bro. A hate-ter.

What would have made dual wielding better is if there were two crosshairs and the crosshairs were moving. I could shoot at the drone on my right and at the Elite on my left.

1. I meant piloting one, not facing one.

2. Maybe it's just the graphics. I like my vehicles nice and shiny.

3. Ok, so I have some problems with Reach, but they're mostly minor and don't attack specific things (unless it's the Wraith).

Fortunately, after 6 hours of Halo: Reach today, I found out that you can move UNSC shields by pushing them. It's odd that I can'at move them by melee but I can move them by push. I also found that meleeing off the smaller 'wings' on the Wraith alleviated my temper problems a lot.

The Wraith may be my least favorite but it's also my favorite. It's rof is crap but that's what the boost is for.

Mortar + splatter charges = godly
Mortar = powerful + use from long distance and/or cover or get shot at
splatter charges = fun
Powerful + fun = godly

4. I hate CE with a passion. :)

I bet you've never played reach and i bet you've played halo 2 more than the others.

Im gonna go play some Halo Custom Edition... you guys can continue on with that hater colt.
Bungie you still rock at what you do... ur forum fans arent as noble as noble team. Their like grunts that got on to hate that they got their asz's kicked in every game.

"ME NO LIKE HALO REACH CUZ SPARTAN PUT BALLS ON ME FACE. HE KEPT YELLING YOU TAKE DAT NOOB AND ME LIKE WTF? ME HATE YOU REACH GUYS ME HOPE YOU DIE. ME HOPE YOU DIE LONG TIME... MC GRUNTIZZLE OUT."

As a game, Reach is great. However, the fact that once you play on Live, it -blam!-s you over. If you can't sign in to live, or you're having internet issues, you can't do jack -blam!- to get anywhere. Its just retarded. The online -blam!- in Reach is the only factor that I hate.

Halo player since 2001 opinion.

Best to Worst.

1. Halo: Combat Evolved
2. Halo 3
3. Halo Reach
4. Halo 2
5. Halo ODST

I love all of them and replay the campaigns at least once a year.

Halo Wars? no thanks

Never getting on here again. A lot of my friends send me messages on here, but sorry people, but i'm not into Bungie.net anymore. So yea... GOODBYE FRIENDS...

I don't care about gameplay, or stupid -blam!- physics, i just care about the overall storyline, and mood of the game. Screw you all... They are all great games in my opinion.

Personally, from a pure gameplay standpoint, I didn't like Halo 3 at first. I was new to the series and didn't grasp the whole Halo theme and skill which is involved. But now, I love each and every Halo. Reach was somewhat different but I liked it just as much, if not more. ODST was mysterious in a way which captivated me and made me want to continue playing to unlock the mystery, as well as the inclusion of Firefight. Halo CE and 2 were fantastic. All of which make me very anticipated for the released of both Halo CEA and Halo 4.

KILLING AND RAPING MY XBOX DOESNT IMPROVE MY MATHS TEST RESULTS!!!

Halo 3 got boring quicker because it's multiplayer was broken with the Ranked and Social system.

Halo 2 was good but only because of the campaign and its maps.

Halo 3: ODST was probably the best out of all of them

Halo: Combat Evolved: Brilliant Campaign, unfortunately, compared to today's multiplayer its customization and weapon variety, but the multiplayer maps were the best of all of them

Halo: Reach was a revolution for Machinima, its armor abilities were a welcome addition, BUT it wasn't for everyone and didn't appeal to the same people as they had in the first few.

Halo Wars: Best console RTS ever made

i would have to say odst, it doesnt get you any deeper into the storyline in the halo series

  • 06.20.2011 2:19 PM PDT

Half of the time I'm dead serious.
The other half not so much.

ODST was a joke. People could say the same thing about Reach, but Reach is far more...playable than ODST.

At least everyone in ODST lived. Can't say that about Reach. XD
