"When we hit our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change"

Before every one freaks out and declares blasphemy against this entire forum, I would just like to make some things clear.

The Halo 3 campaign is so much more better than reach's its as if the Halo 3 campaign is an Elite and the Reach campaign is a grunt. So don't worry, I'm not hating on the epic story of master chief or anything. Now that would be blasphemy.

One of the main reasons why I am writing this thread is because of recent transition from Reach back to halo 3. I hadn't played halo 3 multiplayer that much even when I got it. I just kinda focused on the campaign and forge. So anyway, back to my story. Here's one of the reason why H3 MP is terrible: I was playing a game of lone wolves today, and it was just me and three other players in the match. I still haven't gotten the Steppin' razor achievement yet. And I really wanted to get it. So I grab the sword, kill one guy. great. kill a second guy. even better. I dash towards the third guy while he's reloading and slash and kill him. I expected to hear the chime of the achievement and a whopping 5 gamerscore.....but all I got was a swift smack in the back. I freakin kill him...2 seconds later he assasinates me....jeeez...that really grinds my gears.

Another example of this boulderdash is Halo 3 infection. First of all tthere is no infection playlist. First, I had to find out which playlist it was in. And then a friend told me there is a 7% chance of it appearing in rumble pit. Great. So today I played my first ever game of halo 3 infection. Turns out zombies have sheilds in Halo 3 infection.....and that's BS! WHY WOULD A LIVING CORPSE HAVE -BLAM-ING SHEILDS FOR CHRISSAKE! I'M A MELTING POT OF FRIENDSHIP! I'M A NICE GUUUUYYYYYY!!!

Whew. Sorry about that. You guys are probably going to say: "LOLOLOL, Umad Bro?" And guess what. I am mad. You guy's are also gonna say: "boo hoo, who cares" Which is probably the case right now....besides I only have two arguments.......

There are amazingly great things about Halo 3 MP though: dual weilding, flame based weaponry, the ammount of cool and crazy weapons. the amazing ammount of maps and their quality. and lest we forget choppers :)

But overall I think reach has a better multiplayer.

Please don't hate too hard. I'm a sensitive soul ;)

You are saying it's bad because of an achievement and zombies with shields?

That is 2 issues. (Not problems)

Reach has hundreds of problems.

I'm listeni- Oh wait I don't give a -blam!- what you have to say.

The 2 biggest problems with Halo 3 MP were

1. Grenades

2. Melee

They ruined Halo basically.

I run Skirmish!!!

yeah ok, complaining about lone wolves and zombies in rumble pit... two of the worst things in halo 3

HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO

i have to disagree, halo 3 multiply play was 100 time better than reaches, on halo reach on normal slayer maps there are parley any vehicles taking out some of the fun, you can die from 1 just 1 fusion coil so no more super jumps,they took out time mines so no more overloading maps to get to places that would be epic, that added that stupid 10 sec timer if you go to high in a map,halo 3 didn't have a beta so there were alot of more glitches you could do with your friend to play around with,and that stupid expanding courser from firing you gun"it's halo not cod shouldn't be a back fire..." me and my friends found a "DUAL WIELDING MEY SMG SONG" which you cant play anymore, because there's no DUAL WIELDING for some reason!? and maybe the worst thing is that they took out some of the best thing from halo 3, yeah i can under stand the chopper and the spike grenades, but the BR and they kept the spike! the spiker?! a halo 3 weapon not in halo 1 or 2?!?

on the other side halo reach is a great game, they pack almost everything they could into this game from firefight to forged to a great campaign story

thew making the switch to halo 3 to halo reach, i was deeply disappointed

A person ranting about H3 multiplayer and doesn't mention derankers and wannabe MLG kiddies once.

K.

No but seriously, you're overthinking things. I'm not suprised you like Reach better, because the things you're ranting about don't matter in the slightest.

First off, who gives a -blam!- about achievements?
Second, you are overthinking zombies WAY too much. Zombies without shields is unbalanced as -blam!-.

lol Blam!

Halo 3 > Reach

Dream Theater and Rush > All music

My opinion > Your Opinion

Agreed. Switching the BR with the DMR was a bad choice. the DMR Is a wimpy BR

Lol Pebbles. I remember playing with you in matchmaking. I think the match you're talking about here is the exact one (the lone wolves 4 player match). Don't know why you'd be angry about an achievement even though you kicked my ass a few times.

Also, the playlists, and multiplayer servers in general, are not as they used to be since the people maintaining them are too busy with Reach. If you played the game in its better days, you'd love it.

Been B& 3 times,so be careful in the forums,it's like a jungle

I only hate HALO 3 MP for 1 thing....the ranking system. If it was like Reach's then I would LOVE the MP.

  • 07.14.2011 3:33 AM PDT

Bungie I must say, solo legendary on Reach was a joke, beat it twice on two different profiles; this and Hayabusatan.

I only agree with one thing, "stepping razor" not unlocking I've done it time and time again.

Reach dumbs you down, wanna be good? Play Halo 3 which has a truly fun multiplayer experience that takes skill to rank up.

Reach is like, Kill a guy=credits, assist someone=credits, finish a match=Credits=fast rank ups taking no skill.

Halo 3 on the other hand... <3
