You're in the wrong Forum.


lol

Wait is there a forum where people constantly talk about Call Of Duty and mock Reach. Oh Yeah, the Reach Forum!
Well he is. Also as long as Halo has dynamic AI I could care less about how CoD does this and that.

No. The Flood forum. As far as I'm concerned this has nothing to with Reach.

Have you played the Black Ops Demo?
The AI are absolutely terrible, it seems like Warrant officers from Reach are controlling them.
And it's practically the same as the MW2 demo.
And they say it's the best game.
I wish I was the Jesus of Videogames so I can make the Blind see.

What does this have to do with my reply?

But no, I have not. However, It doesn't take an idiot to understand that Black Ops was going to be terrible. Sadly, today's population is stupider than what an idiot used to be.

I was addressing the difference between the AI.
Anyways, yes, The majority of our Generation aren't fit to lead this Nation.

Ah, I see. My bad. I thought I made it clear that my opinion is that Halo's AI is superior to CoD's.

I agree. It's also partly due to the current generation parents not understanding anything about raising a child.

You have some pretty good ideas, OP. Halo could certainly borrow some ideas from CoD in terms of campaign.

A bigger variety in missions and playstyles within those missions would be nice. I think H3 did this very well, but not so much Reach.

The idea of switching characters for certain missions is cool, but i'm not sure how it would work unless there are other spartans. But it would be great for story telling and showing different events that happen at similar or the same time, or perhaps just changing the perspective of things. It's a great way to show that there is much more going on than just what one character is going through.

Anyone that denies the quality of these ideas simply because CoD uses them should shoot themselves so we dont have to put up with their childish fanboyism.

A few things no game should ever take from CoD.

A: characters are faceless and voiceless while being played.
B: randomly and stupidly killing playable characters off mid-way through the campaign.

It's not a magnum... nor do you launch silencers at stuff.

I just wanted to clear a few things up...I LOVE Halo. Those of you accusing me of hating Reach couldn't be more wrong. Like I said, I consume everything Halo: games, books, comics (that I know about); I even bought Dead or Alive 4 just because they had a SPARTAN character. I still play Reach every day (and I don't even have XBL, so I've played the campaign and forged many, many times).

And I just used Reach as an example because I felt that a purely tactical mission structure was similar to CoD. CoD games don't have an actual plot most of the time, so they rely on the military aspect much more than character development, plot twists, etc.

I'll give you an example of a slight campaign variation I'm talking about, and yes, it's EXACTLY like a mission from CoD (The mission played for the MW2 demo at E3). On Nightfall, Noble 6 could sneak around the bad guys while Jun is at a higher vantage point covering you when needed. Then he could actually make use of his special sniper rounds he talks about in the intro cinematic of Nightfall, and he'd be way more useful than he normally is in that mission. It would enable the player to actually sneak around and not have to worry about Jun taking the first shot and alerting everything to your presence.

Or take Tip of the Spear: if it had actually been a huge battle like it was supposed to be, there could be a part where the player comes across a Covenant tank formation and suddenly you're firing artillery from a different character's perspective to save Noble team.

I also feel that these variations would make the NPCs more significant. When they just follow you around and die it doesn't make me believe that they're part of a military unit. I mean, the rebels in Nightfall had the same AI as the Marines (or Army or ODSTs, etc.). That just doesn't seem right.

Again, don't mistake my posts as hating on Reach, or any other Halo game. I love them all. And I enjoy the campaign gameplay of CoD.

And sorry about posting in the wrong forum, I'm still a rookie member.

Didn't piss me off... you failed. : D


I wasn't TRYING to piss you off, it was more of a warning to fanboys who get bloodlust as soon as they see "CoD" on a computer screen.

Having two characters that you can control is a good idea (which was done in halo 2) but there should be two interlinked stories that alternate between each character ( like in halo 2)

Killing off your character just to become a different one is a bad idea

Also I've played mw2 (so I'm not sure how the other cod games are but I hear that they all play the same) and the story was not nearly as good as any halo game (yes even reach) sure the stealth missions were good but the gameplay felt way too linear and predictable. You can't really make the arguement that halo gameplay is just about killing everyone (have you ever tried doing that on laso it doesn't work) when that is your choice that you make when playing. Sure nightfall isn't the stealthiest stealth mission but it isn't hard to get through it without fighting. I haven't seen any mission on mw2 where you have many choices (breach door kill everyone continue, hide in bushes wait continue, etc.)

Besides silencers there isn't much halo should take from cod


For any cod fans I'm not saying that cod is totally bad but the story has much to be desired

Also cod and halo have opposite styles of gameplay so saying halo should be like cod is like saying halo shouldn't be halo at all.
