Subject: Switching From Reach

I am getting Halo 3 soon since I had experienced all of reach (reaching lengend rank offline and warrent officer online) and wanted to know from Halo fans is 3 better then its counter parts or is it less or just equal?

Imagine a triangle. It's perfect, but a little plain. You take a chisel, and carve a small decorative symbol into it to make it a little more interesting. People like it, but it could use a little more.

So you then take a sledgehammer..

Halo 2>Halo 3>Halo Reach

IMO. That being said, Halo 3 is great. Much better than Reach.

More like Halo 2 = Halo 3 > Reach.

Or Halo 2 is greater than or equal to Halo 3.

Halo 1 > EVERYTHING

Halo 3 forever!

Boltshot = mini shotgun

Halo 3 is definitely better than Reach.
I played it again today and replayed Lone Wolves and Action Sack.
It was awesome.

Thanks and I don`t have live so I might not have the whole expierence but is the forge (one of my favorites thing in halo) better or equal to halo Reach's forge (similar selection or less)possibilities?

You should definitely try getting like a month of live and see how you like it. It's definitely more fun than Reach. You'd probably have a blast.

My opinion pretty much mirrors others here.

Halo 2 = Halo 3 > Reach

Well its not that I don't have the money to buy the cards its that I'm in a dead zone but if i do go to a friends house I could use a 48 hour gold trial I got from a Gears of War 2 special pack (bonus maps and such) when I go to a friends house sometime.

:D

If you have really never played 3 before you will probably get destroyed at first. Just practice using the Battle Rifle.

Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.

The button layout is different you will have to get use to it before really getting exprienced in Reach but if your a hardcore fan of halo i would say halo 3 is for you.

Goodbye Bungie.

Halo 3 to this day is my favorite Halo game. I hope it brings you the joy it brought me and is still giving.

EDIT: I can see that you don't have live. I played H3 without live for 2 years and quite frankly enjoyed every moment. So much stuff to do with friends or alone.

inb4 everyone.

It would be good if there were still enough people playing for Trueskill to work.

  • 08.04.2011 8:27 AM PDT

Just enjoy the damn game!
Who cares about BR vs AR

In soviet B.net you don't delete the flood, the flood deletes you.

If the following has ever happened to you on the flood: been butthurt, offended, angry from someone's post, feel like Nerd Raging . . . you have the right to SHUT UP

Also, if you play Reach this is YOU

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Good choice. I think you already know where I stand...

Take a step back with me and enjoy a taste of the bittersweet that is our current generation.

I enjoy Battlefield and Call of Duty, and Gears of War.

I love anything political.

Halo 3 is leaps and bounds superior to Reach in terms of gameplay. I much prefer it.

The funny thing is, Reach only switched two buttons for the Recon setting on the controller. It really isn't that hard to learn.

  • 08.04.2011 7:06 PM PDT

I recently switched. I prefer it. I dont know where the power weapons are, but its still fun. No armour lock, no sprinters and active camo is rare. No heat seeking plasma grenade, and I just prefer it. Better weapons ad veichles e.g brute shot and brute chopper.

I only have one issue and that is I cant specificly coose dlc maps. E.g I could play noble in halo reach, but here it seems random. Which makes getting certain achivements annoying and random.
